Foot and Mouth Disease Checked
 While foot and mouth disease has not been eradicated, the si- tuation appears to be well under control. In the dairy sections of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts the trouble continues, but Illinois has been pretty we'll cleaned up and west of the Missouri River the sky is serene. Kansas was badly joIted at one stage, but effective quarantine prevented dissemination of the plague from the infected region around Wich- ita. Sporadic outbreaks from the dairy section may be expect ed, but the U. s. Bureau of Ami nal Industry is now in full charge, and with it's effective or ganization may be depended on to prevent further spread. National Wool Grower.

The Lyman ReserUoir

!
 voir which was emptled of water
 by a break in the dam during
 the night of April IA, the St.
 Johns Observer of April IT pub
 lished the following:
 This is the fourth dam that
 has gone out at St. Johns, the
 third one at Hunt and the dam
 at Woodruff has been taken out
 innumerable times. But this time
 IS truly the hardest blow this
 country has ever received. Men
 have spent their last dollar on
 this project, some of them are
 on the verge of bankruptcy. The
 tenacity with which they have
 stuck and worked to redeem this
 desert waste has been magnifi-
 cent. It portrays the highest
 type of citizenship and manhood.
 Of course they will hold on, they
 know what they have got with
 help to develop it. and if there is a people of Gods footstool that deserve help from the govern ment, the state or any place they can get it, it is the people who live on the Little ColOrado river at the present time.
 The reservoir at it's present site was started by Denver cap- italists and was building during the years 1910, Il and '12 being completed in August of that year. The first two years the reservoir was filled to a depth of IS feet. But this year it filled to a depth of 33 feet.
 The dike was 45O feet long at the base; $40 feet long at the crest with a slope of 2 to 1 on each side; 65 feet high with 12 foot crest and contained 200, 900 yards of material. It was faced on up stream side with 6 inches gravel and enc foot of hand laid rock. rip rap. The reservoir formed a capacity of 40, 900 acre feet and was second in size in the state. It had a spiIlway IF feet wide with 12 foot free board. The spillway was 1 mile from the dike. At the time of the break the water was to a depth of 33 feet, with the dike 56 feet wide at this point. A Duddled core of the best quality of clay ran the entire length of the dike.
 The approximate cost of the like was S90,OOO. The Lyman Irrigation project embraced an area of 15, 900 acres. 5000 of which was Tn high state of cultivation. The cost of the entire project is estimated at $2OO. 900. During .he day of the break the dlrec- ors of the company accompanied oy R. G. Mead, field examiner ,f the general land office, vent ,ver the entire project and yisi- ed the dike at which time no evidence of cracking, seething ,r seepage' could be detected.
 The accepted theory of the break is that the portion of the like across the channel below the ,utlet conduit did not have a .hance to settle, consequently his section was naturally weak md gave way when the pressure became too great.
 It is estimated that the sec ion destroyed can. be replaced, he canal repaired and an outlet onduit placed at the bottom of he dike at a cost of $75, 900, which would mean an increased z ost to the project of $500 per ere, making total cost of IT. 50 per acre which is consid- rably less than any project of $ size.
 The damage to property, high ray bridges and other irrigation rojects below the dam probably mounts to oyer $500, GOO.
