Thatch er August 21 1912 MORNING SESSION After enjoying a piano duet by Prof Jones and his pupil Miss Josie Williams and tho rendering of The New Arizona by Mrs Blazzard the convention plunged into its work Chairman Kimball outlined the scope of the the convention and called attention to the excellent display of the products of orchard and field Ha expressed his deep personal gratification in the increased excellence of the fruit und atti United the impiovcmcnt largely to the eiTorls of the horticultural commission He alsp announced the time for the next Natipnal Irrigation Congress and other important conventions of interest to agricultural communities and urged the importance of having this section of country well represented in these gatherings Hon Pace described the methods of marketing local hay in Southern markets He seated that much of our hay while equal to any fdf feeding value owing to its color can not be classified as pea green the highest giade By quicker methods that prevent sun bleaching much more of our hay can be made to grade pea green Pea green alfalfa brings about two dollars per ton more on the market A very instructive general discussion followed in which tt was stated that five pounds of salt per ton would make partly damagdd hay very palatable for stock Prof John Nash of the Gila Academy lehearsed the historical development of irrigation and irrigational systems in this region His wide experience as a surveyor of irrigation projects in this vicinity has enabled him to know much concerning the future of which he is very optimistic He

liminary heating and was admitted to bond in the sum of 1000 and the peace bond of Williams was fixed at a like amount On Fi iday mot ning in the Longfellow store at Morenci Cash met Williams There was bitter feeling between the two men as a result of events which had transpired several dajs previous According to the testimony of Cash cprrobated by Robeson Williams had threatened to kill Cash be fote sun down This threat is denied byWilliams and the evidence of his wife who ws present at the time was that she did not hear that the Roosevelt reclamation project uses an average of 84 acre feet of any thteat to kill water per acre Commissioner Bowen said that a peimanent diversion dam is moic valuable than a reservoir if you can not have them both He gave it as his opinion that a permanent diversion dam at the head of this valley would increase our water supply at least 30 per cent AFTERNOON SESSION The musical numbers weie Ari Hot woids passed between the two men when they met in the
