deal Of money and time in getting
his place ready for extensive agri-
cultural activity. At present it is
cultivating only a small part of the
land, but plans to sink another well
the coming fall and engage in fruit
growing on an extensive scale. He
is very enthusiastic regarding the flu
ture OF the desert lands, and says
that there is a prospect now that
the land owners will be able to bond
their holdings and arrange with the
government to supply electricity ar
a rate that will materially reduce
the cost of irrigation. If this can be
accomplished ii will be but a short
time when all the lands in that part
Of the valley will be in cultivation,
adding many hundred thousands of

work of appointing teachers and TAX

Yesterday afternoon The trustees of
both the grammar and high schools
are figuring on getting together on
their final preliminary work within a

The addition of a kindergarten to the
training school was the big item with
the normal board of regents which met
in the presidents office at the school
yesterday afternoon. A sort of kim
dergarten was added to the training
school year and half ago, making
1t possible for children at the age of
five to start their school work a SEM

provides for the real thing in the kim
dergarten line however. Supplies will
be ordered and the necessary remodel

INTERESTING TRIP
TO QUEEN CREEK WASH
Many Homesteaders Located on This
Land Just Outside Project
Limits

An occasional correspondent OF the
Republican this week, in company
with Messrs. w. A. Tway, f. D..
the desert country south and east
of Chandler. The lands in that part
Of the valley are known as the low
er Queen creek wash, for the reason
that for ages the overflow from
Queen creek has spread over miles
and miles Of level country, depositing
a silt that has built up a soil very
deep and exceeding rich in plant
foods. Lying, outside the reclamation
project, this land has been subject to
desert land entry, and many enter
prisinE homeseeke-s have awaited
themselves of the opportunity to ac-
quire quarter, half and whole sec
tons Of as fertile soil as lies within
| the stale.
The first stop after leaving Chand-
Ter was at the homestead of W. R.
Michaels. where work had just COM
inenced on a well, which it is planned
will furnish irrigation water for 100
acres. Sixteen inch casing is being
used and the well will be sunk to a
depth of 260 feet, in order to reach
the third stratum of underground
water. The land has a fall of about
two feet from east to west, and is
easily irrigated. p E. Fuller, of
Iesa, has the contract for sinking
the well.
Adjoining the Michaels holdings
enables Stewart has a quarter sec
ton upon which he has made final
proof and will get patent as soon as
he develops the necessary water.
Five miles east lies the ranch OF
Guy Tyler, who has made quite en-
tensive Improvements. A comfort

schools will open together this year on
the fourteenth of September. Since an
extra week is being given the students
of the normal, it is quite likely that the
preliminary work will be arranged so
that classes will settle down to their
routine at once. Heretofore register
ing, classifying and the arrangement of
satisfactory recitation schedule has
occupied the greater part of the first
week Of school. The opening of the
training school on the same date will
also necessitate early action in the nor
NAL proper.
The high school will likely open on
the fourteenth and the grammar school
on the seventeenth.

Schedule Changes
Caused Confusion.

Owing to the fact that several
changes went into effect in the sched-
nles on the Piedmont and Northern
lines Sunday. some confusion arose.
A number Of people went to the sta.
ton to board trains which had been
stopping at their towns, only to find
that the trains had been made into
limited express trains and did not
stop at those points. They were in
convenionced but little however, as tho
local trains a short time later ac-
comodated them fully as well. The
new limited schedule to Spartanburr
Is said to be very satisfactory.
