CITY DANGERED
BY COLORADO
Needles Saved from Disaster;
Considerable Damage Done
But No Lives Lost

Swollen with the storm waters OF
the fast melting snow, the Colorado
river over-fowed it's banks above the
city of Needles, and for several days
threatened to destroy the entire city.
Thursday of last week the river
started to rise with alarming rapidity,
eating away its banks and placing a
part of the northern section of the city
under water. The Santa Fe rushed
several trains loaded with men to
Needles in an attempt to. keep the
river from doing: further damage by
building sand .leveesE where necessary.
The greatest trouble. was given be-
tween the smelter and Sweeney's ferry
landing where the railroad company is
now dumping several hundred carloads
of rock. The intense heat and the
humidity resulting from the food
waters makes the work of the relief
trains very slow.
The weather department at Denver
states that the river reached its heigth
Thursday and that from now on it will
gradually recede.

DESERT SANDS
CLAIM VICTIM
Salt Lake Mining Man PeriShes
From Heat and
Lack Of Water

After making trip across the
Colorado river. east of Vegas, and in.
specting some mining properties, Mr..
D. F. Watson and a party of three
mining men, Mr.. ]. Heber Richards, OF
the firm of Taylor & Richards. Salt
Lake, B. H. Vincent of Sandy City,
Utah, and H. H. Wheeler of Needles.
CAL, made an attempt to reach the
river during the hottest part of the
day, which resulted in the death of
Mr.. Richards.
The party of four left Vegas late
last Saturday evening in an auto
mobile for the Colorado to make an in
spection of some property belonging to
Mr.. Watson, which lies about seven
Arizona side. The party arrived at the
river about ten o'clock the same even
ing, without trouble, and camped there
the rest of the night. The automobile
was sent back to Vegas with instruc-
tions to return for the party Monday
evening.
A boat was constructed from some
lumber that had been taken out several
weeks ago by Mr.. Watson, and late
Sunday evening the party crossed the
river and m ade camp about one half
mile beyond. 1t was at this point that
Mr.. Watson expected to catch his
horses when they came down the can
yon for water, which would enable
the party to make the trip in ease.
The horses failed to show up, and
against the wishes of Mr.. Watson, who
has spent the last ten years in that Sec
tion, the trip was made to the property
on foot.
The return trip was started late in
the forenoon. and with the sun beating
down in the box canyon, the party
made their way toward the river.
About three miles from the river, Mr..
Watson, who is bent with wears of
strife and worry on the desert, said
that is was impossible for him to keep
up the pace of the rest of the party.
Mr.. Richards at once suggested that
he stay back with Mr.. Watson and
make the balance of the trip with the
old man, who it was feared would
never get out alive, while the two other
men were to go on to the river and get
things in readiness to re-cross. 1t was
understood that should MIR. Watson
and Mr. Richards not arrive at the
river by two o'clock, Vincent and
Wheeler were to take water and go
back after them.
Thus the party divided. Watson and
Richards made slow progress owing to
the intense heat. drinking very little OF
their water because each felt that be-
fore many minutes every drop would
be needed.
1t was almost two o'clock when
the two neared the place where they
had make their camp the previous
night. only half mile from the river

MOAPA VALLEY
PROSPER|NG
Tomato Concentrating Plant
Will be Installed; Fight
Over Water Settled

The small canning plant that has been
in operation in Overton will be replaced
this Fall by large new plant with a
capacity of 80 to 40 tons of tomatoes
per day. The new plant will eliminate
the great waste of the old plant, which
canned only tomatoes of a certain size,
by employing the new concentration
process, thereby making it possible for
tomatoes of any size to be used.
The concentrating process first re-
which the seeds are taken out. This
pulp is then boil down, about 80 per
cent of the moisture being iaken out.
This leaves very thick pulp which is
put into gallon cans and finds a ready
market with the large factories that
make catsup and use tomatoes for diff
ferent favorings.
The great saving to the farmer by
the use of this method will be realized
when it is known that the finished pro-
duct of the concentration plant, while
containing all the nourishment of the
tomato, will weigh just one half, mean.
ing saving of so per cent in freight
charges. The seeds that are extracted
from the tomatoes can also be sold at
from six to seven cents per pound.
The new plant will be operated by
the farmers, who have been guaranteed
by the installing company, much bet
ter price for their tomatoes than has
prevailed heretofore. Plans are al
ready under way for the cultivation of
approximately $50 acres this fall, to be
planted to tomatoes in the spring.
Litigation Settled
The long contested suit of the
Muddy Valley Irrigation Company, IN
volving the water used for irrigation
purposes in the valley, has at last been
settled. 1t is the plan of the company
to construct pipe line from above the
"Narrows'' to their bitches further
down the valley. This will mean a
much increased water supply, as it
is a known fact that there is almost
three times as much water above the
"Narrows" as there is below. This is
due to the underground channels that
take the largest portion of the water.
With the completion of this pipe line,
enough water will be available to put
every acre of ground in the valley
under cultivation.
