crete 120 feet above the bed of the
river.
1.-THE main dam will be some 300
feet long, more or less, with
1900 feet Southerly wing ranging
from 40 to 80 in height to the South
hill. A total length of some 1900
to 1900 feet.
Investigations have disclosed
that. there is a solid rock founda-
ton averaging Az to 5 feet below
the surface. This reef or dyke in
ages past formed large lake above
this point and the stream has gra-
dually eroded it's way to the per-
sent level
"All material for construction
can be secured on the promises ex-
cept concrete.
"A dam of this height would
form a storage reservoir some 8
square miles in area and estimated
that it would store some 100000
acre feet.
There is natural spillway
formed by the contour of the hills,
into the canyon across the Du-,
quesne road at the top of the hill.
cit is proposed to pipe the. water
to lands along the river in both
Santa Cruz and Pima counties.
"The land holders along the riv-
er will be invited to sign contracts
for water for such of their lands
as they may wish to irrigate and
after Santa Cruz lands have been
cared for any surplus will be car
ried to Pima county.
Many of the higher mesaS a.
long the lower valley will be irri-
gated, thus forming rich and fer
tile background for Nogales, the
value of which it is practically
impossible to estimate.
>"The local officers of the COM
pany have not as yet been selected,
so here is a chance for some of the
NogaleS boosters to get. in on the
ground floor and make some
money.
"It is proposed to sell perpetual
water rights, each carrying an in
terest or stock in the project or
holding company, payable in an
nual instalments over period Of
IS or 80 years. No interest until af-
ter the water is turned on. There
after a nominal interest to be
charged of probably 5A46 or SO

struction has been paid for it viii
be turned over to the water users
free from debts and they will
thereafter operate the same for the

Aqua Caliente
Handicap Worlds
Richest Race

Aqua Caliente, Baja California,
Mexico, July 22.-The worlds rich
est race is now the Aqua Caliente
Handicap, with 100000 added by
the Aqua Caliente Jockey Club
and it will be run over the new
course now being constructed at
the Baja California resort on Sun
day, March twenty-third.I The dis
tance will be one mile and quar-
ter and the subscriptions and
starting fees will make the gross
vaule of the race approximately
$40, 900.
The above announcement was
made by James N. Crofton. Gener-
al Manager of the new racing or
ganization, whose two million dol
lar plant promises to be the most
beautiful and unique in the coun-
try.
The Aqua Caliente Handicap is
of course the successor to the Cof-
froth Handicap which saw its
tenth running last March when
Golden Prince pulled down the
rich prize.
Upon the organization of the
Aqua Caliente Jockey Club 1t was
announced that the worlds rich
est race" would be called the Bow
man Handicap. However, Writ G..
Bowman, who is President of the
Jockey Club declined the honor
and stated that he thought the
most logical and natural thing to
do was to name the race after the
playground, which has become so
famous within the last year,-Agua
Caliente.
Although the conditions of the
Aqua Caliente Handicap have not
as yet been announced it Is pro-
bable that racing Secretary Jack
Campbell, VINO by the way has de-
finitely accepted the post Of Rae
ing Secretary and Handicapped,
proffered him by General Manager
Crofton, will make them practical
ly the same as the Coffroth of last
year, which also carried an added
money value of 100000, with the
exception possibly that the start
ing fees will be raised from $500
to $1,000. y
The history of the Coffroth
Handicap, of which the Aqua Ca
liente is to all intents and purpOs-
es, the successor, is one of romance.
It's initial running was in 1917
when Sassin showed the way home
and pulled down total of $4,000,
as the winners share. The race
was not run because of the war,
between 1917 and 1921. In that
year Be Frank won the event and
pulled down $14,775. From that
time on the value increased by
leaps and bounds until last March
Golden Prince nosed his way
home to pull down the rich prize
of $1O8,9O0. The winners in other
years were: 1922, Mulciber; 1928,
Rebuke; 1924, Runstar; 1925, Ath-
erstone; 1926, Carlaris; 1927 Sir
Harry; 1928, Crystal Pennant;
1929, Golden Prince.
BY the way Aqua Caliente is pro-
nounced "Ah-wa Cal-i-ente".
