READY TO BEGIN CON-
STRUCTION OF BIG DAM
(From Saturdays Daily

"Excavating for the foundation OF
the dam of the Hassayampa Alfalfa
Farms Co., and other preliminary
work, will end on Saturday, and early
next week construction work begins
said II. G. Wells, of Nancy Broth
ers, yesterday.
He also mentioned the fact that a
very large amount OF work was re-
CURED to prepare the foundation of
the dam, on which the forms for the
concrete are now being laid. The &C.
ment has been ordered, and it is es-
timated that a car day will be used.
Mr.. Wells says that the structure
will be of the arched type and there
will be no further delays unless
freezing weather interferes. The
contract calls for the storage to be
completed by April /, and this will
be accomplished if weather condi-
tons are favorable If the dam is
built to a heighth OF l02 feet as is
planned, the railroad track will be
submerged, and a change of grade
will be necessary. This heavy ex-
pensc can be avoided, in the opinion
of Mr.. Wells, by building to a
heighth OF 80 feet, and with a second
storage on Willow creek, less than
one mile distant, the expense OF

required to shift the railroad track to
