FLOODS AT DOUGLAS

DOUGLAS, July 7.-The biggest flood that Douglas has had seen in a long time occurred early this morn ing when flood water from the Sul- phur Springs valley, the result of cloudbursts between Gleeson and the Mule mountains rushed in a torrent down the Whiteriver channel and de- seconded with such force on the Doug las-Bisbee highway at the bridges near the c. & A. shelter that for a time it threatened to wash away the west approach to the bridge and several hundred feet of new road. As it was, only about fifty feet was damaged.
 It was only by the herculean efforts of Harry A. Clark, superintendent ot the smelter and a member of the high way commission, Oswald brothers, the road contractors, and a big force of men working most of the day that a real catastrophe was avoided. Dur ing the battle with the elements one thousands sacks of sand and crushed rock were piled along the north side of the west approach to the bridge to lessen the pressure and divert the water and this saved the situation.
 Yesterday morning the vicinity of the bridge was a solid lake of water for a distance of more than a quarter of a mile, or from hill to hill. It looked like the Mississippi river at St. Louis when the banks are full. And in some places it was fifteen feet deep. By six o'clock last night the flood had subsided but during the night the water rose again and this morning the volume was about one half that of yesterday. However, the | safety of the bridge, and no further probable that rip-rapping work will 1 have to be done on the north side of the bridge.
 When it rained so hard Saturday night, Harry Clark feared that the Whitewater would be out of its banks by morning and Sunday morning he arose at o'clock and hastened tc the bridge, only to find the water three inches deep over the paving west of the bridge. The flood was then at its crest. The water leve was three feet higher on the north side of the bridge than on the soutl side, the opening under the bridge being insufficient to accommodate tho great volume of water. The openins would have had to be fifty per cen bigger to do the work.
 Mir. Clark immediately summoned help and soon scores of men were fighting the flood, continuing worl most of the day.

NEW REGULATION FOR DIARIES

PHOENIX, July Nov in effect are new and drastic regulations, pre- scribed by the last legislature, on sug- gestion of the State Dairy Commis- sioner. Farmers who sell to the creameries no longer will be permit ted to handle their cows or milk in haphazard or unsanitary manner and there is to be. emphasis in the in- spection of cleanliness and cooling. Barns and corrals must be kept rel atively clean and there must be evi- dence of a daily scalding of milking utensils, separators and aerators. Heretofore the inspection has been confined to retail dairymen's premi- ses.
 The Tempe plant of the Pacifif Creamery company, an Armour annex, has been closed down for rebuilding and refitting with the most modern apparatus All milk has been divert ed to the new Glendale plant of the company. The Tempe plant was started for manufacture of the Lily brand of evaporated milk, moved thence from a site near Los Angeles by J. B. Cook, now Long Beach banker. Sale to the Armours was made a couple of years ago. After the remodeling is completed, the plants will have a capacity for hand ling about 35O,O0O pounds of milk daily.

those donors who gave checks up To-
a certain date were listed.
The executive committee plans at an
