PIPE SNOW TO DESERT
Arid Wastes of Arizona Trans
formed by Engineer.
Charles n. Spencer Found Hidden Wa
ter Supply From San Fran
cisco Peaks.

Phoenix, Ariz.-SOlving a problem
that for years had puzzled the great
est engineers of the country, Charles
II. Spencer has brought billions of gal
| ions OF wafer to the arid lands of Ari-
iona. The water comes from an I'M
| foreground flow on the SnOw-capped
| San Francisco mountains. The noun
tains. 1851 feet above sea level, are
Of volcanic origin and the total pre-
clpltation is equal to nine and one
half billion gallons year.
Irrigation experts had sought for
years TO solve the problem of saving
this water, which was going to waste.
and which, when turned on Arizona's
deserts, would mean millions of acres
available for use. Mr.. Spencer spent
four years searching through the
mountains. making careful tests and
examining the rock formations.
His tireless Iabors were rewarded
when he discovered rim of dacite ce-
ment, which carried the water to the
stratums below. He found that by
piercing these lower stratums he could
reach the underground flow. and in
the spring of 1918 he filled the first of
his reservoirs, Crater lake. with $780,
OO0,00O gallons of water of true I'M
derground flow.
Mr. Spencer used seven extinct
craters for reservoirs, with a combined
capacity of 2,OOOO00,OOO gallons
There will be no such thing as pump
ing costs. There is not an ounce Of
power required anywhere, for it is en-
tirely gravity flow. BY solving the
secret Of the hidden water supplies
he has made it possible for arid lands
to be transferred into beautiful gar
dens, rich farming lands and verdant
grazing grounds.
