SEEK LOWER CEMENT
 RATE IN CONFERENCE. AT SAN FRANCISCO.

Seeking a special rate of $2.50 a ton on cement shipped to Phoenix from Fl Paso. Colton or other points, special committee from this county was Tn conference yesterday afternoon at San Francisco with traffic chiefs of the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe rail- roads. In view of the fact that the present rate on cement from Colton to Phoenix is $6.40 a ton, while the rate from San Francisco to Cotton, great CT distance, is only $3-50 a ton, the committee claims the rate to Phoenix is unjust and prejudivial The rate to Phoenix from Fl PaSo is also s640 a ton.
 The chief basis for seeking an ad justment with the railroads is the building of the country paved road system of s4,000,000. The difference between the rate collected and the rate asked for is such as to make necessary a vigorous and united effort to secure the $2.50 ton rate which, as the com mittee states, will mean the saving of hundreds of thousands of dollars to the taxpayers.
 The committee represents the city government, the county government, the county highway commission, the Phoenix chamber of commerce. the Merchants and Manufacturers associa- tion, as set down in a resolution passed at a joint meeting March l. The pro- posal has received the endorsement of the Rotary club, the Kiwanis club, Womans club and others. The com mittee comprises Roy s. Goodrich, chairman traffic committee, chamber of commerce Roland Johnston. traffic manager, chamber of commerce.; John F. Barker, president Merchants and Manufacturers association; Eugene chairman Maricopa county

PRE-NUPTIA GIFT ID FORD FROM BOYS"

Preparatory to his wedding, which will occur shortly, the date of which he swears a gun could not make him disclose, George O. Ford received as a mark of esteem and wholesome good will 50 big dollars which the boys insisted should not be ex- pended by him, but should be handed over to his happy mate. It was real ized by them that having of late be- come a grandfather. his mind reverts to infant togs, a supply of which it was feared he might secure in the fear that extremities might arise when the supply might be limited when most required.
 However, to his employees whom he deems too liberal, he extends a most grateful acknowledgements and a posi- tive assurance that Mrs. Ford soon to-be joins with him in profoun d thankfulness. And whatever may be secured with this bounteous gift will be held and esteemed as a mark of great regard from well wishing friends.

COUNTY WILL HAVE 88 PRECINCTS FOR
 ELECTION IN FALL

Maricopa county will be divided into SS election precincts for the state pri- mary election in September. This is three more than in years past Other precincts may be added before the general election in November.
 Four new precincts were created at a meeting of the board of supervisors yesterday. They include two new pre- cinclS in Glendale; one at Marinette, and one at Goodyear. At the same time, the board abolished the precinct known as Washington No 2, which is located at a mine in the northern sec tion of the county.
 Designating the polling places for the primary election will be the next step by the board in making prepara- tions for the voting this fall. These polling places will probably be deter mined at the meeting next week.
 Should the precincts already created prove inadequate for handling the voters of the county, other precincts will be created prior to the general election, board members intimated yes terday.

 IN SAFE CONDITION

Assurances that all safety factors in connection with the big Snowflake reservoir of the Snowflake and Taylor irrigation company in Navajo county have been checked over and that the reservoirs condition gives no occasion Tor alarm, were made public yesterday by State Water Commissioner w. S. Norviel.
 The commissioner is just returned from an inspection trip to the dam, made at the request of State Engineer Thomas Maddock, who was called upon by some of the people under the dam to take steps toward safeguarding their homes. The state engineer lacked jur- isdiction in the premises but the water commissioner had Jurisdiction on tech nIcal grounds. in connection with his jurisdiction of the Little Colorado riv CT water that have a bearing upon the dam supply.
 The Snowflake reservoir was built In 1904 and has always occasioned some alarm because of the numerous ''seeps' existing below. the dam and on either side thereof. It was never filled to capacity, as the irrigation company stuck to policy of caution and of Keeping within a height of water that had been found safe. Recently, it was claimed, an elective official of the company had announced his intention Of filling the cam to capacity.
 Commissioner Norviel secured assur- anceS from the official that no at tempts of that sort had been intended and that none would be made. num- Der of old time water users testified to the commissioner that the ''seeps" were becoming less serious every year,
 It is claimed that a break in the dam would be disastrous, as nearly 1900 persons live within the path of a pos sible flood, the list including 75 at Shumway, 400 at Taylor and 500 at Snowflake. The water users have 2.5O0 acres under irrigation, and also use impounded water to run a daytime

ing afflicted hogs to wallow in irriga- tion ditches. Dr. flight said yesterday that he haG just seen a cholera -strick- en hog in a ditch that served dozens of ranches down the line.
 The immunization vaccine. according to the doctor, is a sure safeguard when used properly, although it cannot be counted to save a hog already stricken. In one case, that the official mentions, a rancher used the vaccine conscien- tiously but incorrectly and he lost about 10 per cent of his Grove of 500 hogs. The losses decreased rapidly after he obtained assistance from the state veterinarian.
 There is mo general epidemic of the hog cholera in Arizona Dr. Flight says. but sporadic outbreaks are appearing constantly.
