THE WEST SIDE CANAL.

The Press is pleased to note that most residents OF
The new west side canal the correctness of the
position of the Press in regard to this canal Here are
some indisputable facts regarding that work:
1t was promised that it would be rushed to compile
ton by July at cost of S12OOOO Because the canal
was made 60 feet wide the bottom the biggest canal
IN the valley the task great that not finished
until August forty days ate and it cost about S2OOOOO
or more than so per cent above estimate.
A temporary canal of moderate size could have been
rushed through and would have saved the crops on the
west side By building a large permanent canal to ac-
comodae Mexican lands there such delay that the
loss of crops on the west side was terrible.
With capacity of 1900 second feet the canal is dev
eng but 100 second feet the total apportioned to the
whole valley and this small relief did not come until re-
lief was at hand from another source.
The statement is made an argument tor the canal
that small channel leads from the river to Volcano Lake.
and there consequently will be water available tor some
time for this canal But Volcano Lake evee pierced by
valley and just in proportion to the water drawn Will
that channel grow and just in proportion as the channe
grows will the valley be threatened by the river.
The west side canal must have one OF three desnles
1t must be considered temporary Which means little utl-
ity must draw the river the evee, which threatens
the whole valley; must be extended to Cudahy check
aH thus draw its supply from the Alamo II 1t does TINS
has not relieved the Alamo it has added nothing to the
irrigated area in the United States but it has added 2OO
American farmers for system that will overburden the
Alamo canal and which will leave the west side to be sup
ped only after all the Mexican lands have taken from
their canal what they need 1t is the last plan the
district favors but what gain the west side lind IN
any Of these possibilities?

THE HOT WEATHER
CAUSES BLOW-OUTS

According to J. NJ Harcleroad, LEGAL
distributor of the Savage Tire Cor
poration, motorists can save thou
sands of dollars by proper attention
to the air pressure in the tires on
their cars.
Tires and the air contained in them
readily heat and expand when a car
is driven at any but moderate speed
over pavements and even at the slow
est speed through sand or any other
soft, dry surface. A motorist can
staIt with the pressure just right in
all his tires and after he has driven
an hour or two, he will find that the
pressure has greatly increased. This
condition is very much exaggerated
in hot weather. Road surfaces readily
retain the heat of the sun and just
as readily impart this heat to tires
passing over them. This heat with
the heat that is always developed by
the friction of the tire contact with
the road, in many cases increases the
pressure to the danger point and
causes blow-outs.
Mr.. Harcleroad went on to say that
many motorists who read this will be
inclined to think that it applies to the
other fellow, but that is point well
orth the consideration of everyone.
Savage tires, because of the extra
plies of fabric used will stand extra
pressure, caused by hot-weather driv-
ing better than most tires, but not
w;thstanding this, Savage tire is oc-
casionally discovered that has been
blown out because of this very thing.
