Supervisors Meeting

The board of supervisors held a
meeting on Monday for the purpose
of laying the Levy for 1920, which
it did. Taking in consideration the
H. C. L. the rate was held down well
1t is the same as last year, except
| that there is an increase of 5 per
cent for County Purposes, which fund
is used for general expenses, making
lit 40 cents on the $4,000 value
against 35 cents as of last year.
There was an increase of 5 cents
on the sinking fund making it now 10
cents on the $4,000 value as against
5 cents last year. All other bal
ance of the levy remains the sam as
last year.
The S. cents increase on the Sink
ing Fund was made so that in 1925
when our R. R. debt of $4,000 com
es due there will be money in the
sinking fund to take it up. Then we
can bid adieu to, Narrow Gauge and
the gentle reminder of $4,000
which our fathers left US, and which
has been with us constantly for the
past SO years.
The Board says you can fish in Hi
ghland for trout only during the
month of May and June CT each year
and with hook and line. You can
fish for bass with hook and line only
during the months Of July and Aug
ust of each year.

afternoon were convinced that the

both enlightening and convincing.
Passing from this prase of the sub

and along with man specimens of
handywork, all Of which she exhibit

To consider the matter of a COM
munity nurse, the executive commit
ee of the local chapter held a meet
ing at the close of the lecture, and
after consideration and interchange
of views, it was decided that the To-
to this end provided the county would
cal chapter would contribute $1,000
stand for the remaining $500. The
proposition was laid before the super
visors at their meeting Monday, and

 Early improvement was generally ascribed to the stronger bank position disclosed by last Saturdays statements of the clearing house association and local federal reserve bank Other week end advices also seemed encour- aging to the constructive side of the market
 As the session progressed 1t became evident that trading again lacked the clements of bullish leadership, save for the operation of pools. With the first indications of pressure prices fell away as easily they arisen.
 Traders were not in accord regard ing latest aspects of the Mexican sit ution, this conflict of opinion finding reflection in the heaviness of Mexican oil securities, as against the relative strength of European issues, notably Royal Dutch which made a new high record Sales amounted to S50,00o shares.
 Oils dominated the day as a group, sowever their activity being based upon favorable trade conditions. An advance of 1 E per cent per gallon was announced by one of the largest re- liners, while producers in the middle

SUES WATER USERS
 FCR LOSS IF CROP

N Declaring that as result of spill ways cut in the south bank of the Arizona canal during the floods in 1919 which permitted the water to flow over his land, he has suffered damages to the extent of S17500 c. c. By yester- day brought suit against the Salt River Valley Water Users Association. MT. Bly, says his land lies just west Of Cave Creek wash and that the canal is on the north of his place.
 He alleges that when the course of the canal was changed, it damned up Cave Creek and caused the flood water to back into Cave Creek wash. To re- lieve this, he alleges. the defendants opened holes in the south bank of the canal, which let the water onto his land, eroding the surface, destroying a crop of alfalfa and washing away the fences.
