 It is probable that the Santa. Fe may be interested to the ex- tent of supplying the funds necessary to finance whatever project is undertaken after much the same manner as they did with the Flagstaff project. If so it will then be possible for the town to pay for the project thru the sale of water and in this way come to own the pro- ject witout the necessity of ad-- ditional bonded indebtedness.
 The prospect for the solution of the towns water problem is the brightest it has been at any time in the history of the town The citizens of the town as we'll as the members of the Town Council will await with interest the return of engineer McDon- aid of Burns 6 Mcdonald with a report from his conference with the Santa Fe officials.

TOM COUNCIL MAY
 SOLVE WATER PR0BL EM

The Williams Town Council IS working on a plan which may work out a solution of the mu- n1clpal water problem without cost to the taxpayers. The plan is to interest the Santa Fe and the Saginaw in combining with the town to secure the water which all three need. Engineer Mcdonald, an expert on water questions is now in conference with the Santa Fe Officials in Chicago on this mat ter. It is expected that he will return to Williams in two or three weeks with a report on what attitude the Santa Fe takes on the proposal.
 If the railroad and the mill show a disposition to cooperate with the city in working out a solution of this problem the first step will be the making of complete water survey of the country about Williams. Big Springs will be measured, the country south of Williams will be looked into and it's possible yield of water determined and the construction of a big reser- voir in the canyon in which the present city reservoir is located,

COUNTRY DOINGS

There never was such :
 crowd at a country dance be-
 fore as at the barn dance al
 the w. E. Morgan Ranch, ir
 Garland Prairie, last Saturday
 night. They were there from 1 Ash %Fork, Flagstaff and Will i Hams and all over the country
 It is estimated that four hund-
 red people attended the dance. | 80 cars were counted. Our
 worthy Judge of the Superior Court, District Attorney, Sher- if, County Superintendent of Schools, and, in fact, all of the political candidates for office, with two or three exceptions, were there, and took part in the festivities. Sheriff Bill Campbell, Hugh Campbell and others passed around candy and cigars amongst the crowd. There was a prize waltz, in which w. E. Morgan and his niece, Miss Frances Coleman, tied with MT. and Mrs. George Johnson. The big barn was crowded, but there was some thing doing every minute, and every one enjoyed good big time. An excellent lunch was served in cafeteria style at mid night, consisting of meat sand waches, heaps fo roasting ears, cake, coffee, pickles, etc. Over six dozen loaves of bread were made into sandwiches to satisfy the hungry crowd. MT. and Mrs. Morgan are to be con- graduated on the excellent and efficient manner in which the big dance was handled. This may be the last big dance of the season. In fact. there will probably not be another like it until the next political cam paign, when it is hoped that Bill will do it all over again.

COLEMAN LAKE ROAD
 NOW INVITES AUTOISTS

Coleman Lake road is now in fairly good shape and invites autoists to enjoy one of the most beautiful drives in this great mountain country. Many motorists are already planning Sunday picnics to be spread beneath the giant pines along the shores of beautiful Cole man Lake. Have you seen Cole man Lake this year? If not you should go out and look it over and compare it's possibili- ties with those of other North ern Arizona lakes. Why not plan a visit to the Lake next Sunday?
 Some day Coleman Lake will become as famous as Mormon Lake. Why not hasten that day by getting together and putting a few hundred dollars into developing the lake this The thing which is needed most of all is a little work to increase the of water running into the lake. A few hundred dol lars would be sufficient to in crease the drainage into the lake from twenty-five to fifty per cent. Why not do it now SO that the winters snows may fill the lake to the full capacity of the dam?

FARMERS OF EAST END OF COUNTY 9S PER CT BEHIND MARKETING ASSN, AND BUILDING OF WAREHOUSE

A very interesting and suc-
 cessful meeting of farmers and
 their families was held Sunday,
 Sept 10, at the Doney Park
 Community House. Over hun-
 dred persons were present.
 Williams, Bellemont, and
 Spring Valley were represent
 ed. A very interesting and in-
 structive talk on the economy
 and advantages of cooperative
 marketing was given by Prof.
 T. H. Cureton of Williams, af- ter which the marketing plans for this falls crop were thoroly discussed by the officers of the Marketing Association and ap- proved by the farmers. Ware housing was taken up and stock liberally subscribed, some of the largest growers stating that they would take $50O.O0 each if need be to put the warehouse over, work on which will begin as soon as possible in the spring
 The ladies of Doney Park and vicinity proved themselves the peers of the ladies of Spring Valley. The spread set before the large crowd proved this One special feature of the din ner was real ripe tomatoes grown and prepared by Mrs Swanson of Black Bill Park This tended to refute the idea that tomatoes can't be grown in the vicinity of Flagstaff. Mrs: Swanson stated that she had sold S37.OO worth of ripe toma- toes. that her vines were loaded and that she expected to mar ket as many more.
 NOTE: The farmers of the West End of the county are rratified to know that the1r leighbors of the East End are 90 loyal to the general cause
