Editor Waycrosp Herald, Waycrots, Ga. 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.

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.

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.
