ADMITTED TO THE
DRAINAGE DISTRICT

The board of directors of the San
Luis Valley Drainage District No. 1
met last Tuesday, received the petit
tion of the people of La lara for ad
mission to the district, and adopted
a resolution incorporating said town
site into the district. The board also
filed its assessment roll levying thir-
ty cents per acre for current ex-
penses upon the lands in the district.
An election will be called soon to
vote upon bonds to construct the nee
essary bitches. Probably the notice
of election will be given next week.
1t is said that several of the land
owners who voted against the bonds
at the former election have seen
their mistake and will vote favorably
next time. From present outlook
there seems little doubt that the cleo
tion will result favorably to the
bonds.
It is difficult to predict all the
good that will result to La lara,
entire section around these towns
and to Conejos county from the in
stallation of the drainage system
contemplated. The $500 acres in
the district cannot be drained with
out benefiting to some degree the
lands adjoining, and 1t is calculated
that ct least 1900 acres not now
tillable will be brought into cultiya-
ton. Imagine the benefit to this
part of the valley of u, 900 addition
al acres in alfalfa or sweet clover.
w. A. Braiden who is as well quail
fed as any man in the valley to
speak in regard to the feeding of
stock, estimates that this land in
sweet clover would enable the people
on those lands to raise $4,000 head
of hogs annually, or to keep 10000
dairy cows. Now, If you can figure
out the benefit to the several towns
OF this part of the county that would
result from spending the money
brought in by that many hogs or
that many dairy cows, and the bene-
fit to the men who occupy the land
and raise the stock, you will have
some idea of the value to this sec
tion that would result from thoro
drainage.
To the county will be added
large amount of taxable property,
the tendency of which would be to
decrease the present tax rate Roads
in the drained area could be kept in
much better condition than under
present circumstances. and at great
ly reduced xpense.-Gazette.

FLATS IN DEMAND IN FRISCO

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. THE
demand in this city for fats and apart
ments has steadily been increasing.
due to the war and the resulting high
prices Of food stuffs. Apartment own
ers account for this by reason Of the
fact that persons who have been liv-
ing in hotels and eating their meals
in restaurants find they can live more
economically where they can do light
house keeping.
The apartment with the kitchenette
is being sought as it provides the IA.
cilities for preparing the relatively
easily prepared ham and eggs and
coffee for breakfast and the light
noon luncheon. With two meals thus
provided for, the restaurant may still
