Editor Waycrosp Herald, Waycrots,

Dear \pir:—I have Just noturned
from a trip to tho Elephant Hutto
daui, whlffh lp under construction
about one hundred and twenty miles
above El Paso on the lllo Grande. 1
was so Impressed with it that I want
to give your readers n description
and explain the purposo of this pro*
There la a force of about five run*
tired men working there now, and
with this force it will be nearly tlva
years before it is completed. Bed
rock is from twenty to fifty feet bo*
low the present river bed and this
most Ik* reached before they will sot
a solid foundation. The main wall
will bo one hundred and ninety throe
feet above tho present {tver bed, six*
teen feet wide at tho top and one
hundred aud ninety six feet wide at
the bottom, the slope being awa*
from the water in order to hold Ua
crest weight The length on top
will be one thuurand two hundred
feet and will require five hundred
thousand barrels of cement besides
sand and the material to construct It.
It la almost Inutossible to conceivt
the enormous body of water that will
be stored In this artl:icial Lake. Tho
Rio Grande It a lar/o stream and
some times during the iUm.i season
ft changes Its course, but this reset*
rolr will be so targe that with ih%
normal row and the food water* to
gather will not fll It up in man/
noatbe. From the wr»’i ta ;h<» fr*.

.t o trillion six hundred thou
s....ires of laud one foot deep, or
the ' .ate ot Rhode Islands with four
feet ci water or *ie state of Dele
A. v ro with two foot of water.
This dam will Irrigate three nun
dred thousand acres of land and after
t is once tiled that supply of water
»• oi Id take caro of that much laud
•. -.id net another drop of rain fall
j lor three year*. The first estimate
'of the cost of this enormous project
I \ di auven million two hundred thou*
I -and dollars. Since it has been star-
tod and additions made tho estimate
plated at two millions more, and
:* 13 quite likely tlmt .even this a-
Lount will Ik* increased before com
pletion. This is some money as the
interest alone will amount to five
hundred and fifty two thousand dol
lars a year flgurelng at six per cent.
To vou people who are not famlllur
with Irrigation projects and irriga
tion, will of course say that this Is
an euormoua amount of money to
put into one project, but when by ex
pending this amount of money we
an reclaim these thousands of acres
'( and land and convert them Into
Lh producing soil. It Is similar tu
uytag a slice of territory from a
•reisn country as It is practically
seless without wafer. And to>. thb
oil is of such a nature that it will
-.•» its owner fifty, dollars f&r acre
"ben Irrigated. There it a plan on
foot now to harness the water power
as It comet through the apllliray and
generate power to run an electric
railroad up and down tho entire
valley.
The people of this entire section
have no one to thank bu the business
men of El Faso for this project at
hoy fought the entire state of Colo-
.rto for four Ion* years before they
•Ted them out and Induced the gov-
rr.treat to build this dam near ns

Rheumatic Pains
quickly relieved
Sloan's Liniment is good for pain of
any sort It penetrates, without rubbing,
through the muscular tissue right to the
bono-rclieves the congestion and gives
permanent asavell as temporary relief.
Here’s Proof.
A. W. Lay of Lafayette, Ala.,writes:—
“ 1 had rheumatism for five years. I tried
doctors and several different remedies but
they did not help me. I obtained a bottlo
of Sloan’s Liniment which did me so much
rood that I would not do without it
qr Ti(0MAl I. Ric* of Eaiton, Pi.,
1 Writes: “ I have used Sloan's Lini
ment and find it first-class for rheu
matic pains.”
Mr. G.G. Jonksof Baldwins, L.I.,
writes:—“I have found Sloan’s Lin
iment par excellence. I have used it for broken sinews above the knee
cap caused by a fall, and to my great satisfaction 1 was able to resumo
my duties in less than Uirec weeks after the accident.”
LINIMENT
is an excellent remedy for sprains, bruises, sore throat, asthma.
No rubbing necessary—you can apply with a brush.
