His the heavy sandstone rocks from son Audrie later joked that by the the quarry east of town owned time the line reached the garage
“you’d have to strike a match to see whether the light bulb was lit.” As might be expected, his neighbor Napoleon “Boss” Chilson also wanted a light bulb, and Grady obliged, running one line to his house and Chilson’s and another to the garage. However it became obvious a larger generator had to be purchased. The power was doubled to 5-kilowatts, and Harrison was hard put to turn down the requests coming from friends and neighbors. Ernest Pieper wanted a light bulb, then Wes Powers who worked for Grady as a truck driver. Then the Stewarts wanted a light in their restaurant, as did the Woman’s Club. By this time, Harrison had to charge for the service, a flat rate of $1 a month. It was costly putting in all those lines and buying larger and larger generators. The service rapidly expanded to the Pieper Saloon, Boardman’s Mercantile and the Pioneer Hotel. That one required four bulbs. The growing demand called for a 10-kilowatt generator added to the other. The larger one served all the stores in the center of town, and the smaller one sent electricity to the houses at the east end of town. A problem arose when everyone turned on their light bulbs at the same time. Grady hired H. D. “Dad” Shepherd to take care of the power plants, which shut down at 10:30 p.m. and started up again at 5 a.m. [2] The business grew and Grady needed a larger facility, so his inventive mind went to work again. He bought a used railroad
roundhouse from the Inspiration Mine in Globe, disassembled it and hauled the material to Payson. He built his new garage on the corner of Main Street and south McLane. The year was 1934, and the location was where the Tammany Hall establishment had burned down years before. He finished the new garage in 1936. This time Harrison purchased a used 20-kilowatt Van Severin, single cylinder diesel generator from the Parker Dam project. They had changed from producing direct to alternating current. It weighed three tons and was made of solid copper. Payson was still on direct current and three copper wires, two hot and a neutral, carried the current to Payson customers. With direct voltage, the further the lines went the less voltage they carried. Since the lines now stretched as far away as the farmhouse west of the ranger station, yet more power was needed. This time Harrison added a 30-kilowat Fairbanks Morse diesel with a 9-foot flywheel. One had to stand on it and swing down to get it started. The two recent generators stood side by side in the new garage with just enough room between for them to be serviced. The old tin building that housed the first small generators stood where the Woman’s Club and the Bookstore were later built. It collapsed under the weight of the “Big Snow” of 1967. Somehow Grady Harrison’s whereabouts after death defy detection. Public records do not show when he died and where he was buried. Perhaps a reader will

[1] When historian Stan Brown first published this fact, a couple of ladies from the Holder family told me this was wrong, and that Ogdan Holder owned the Pioneer Bar when it burned, and that he then went out and built the Pioneer Bar on the Beeline Highway. However, Pat Cline got my attention and told me I was right the first time. The property was bought by Fred Joy who erected a façade from the red sandstone rocks retrieved from the old Payson Commercial building, but he died of a heart attack before he could complete a new building behind the façade. [2] Shepherd had been a goat rancher in Kirkland Valley, southwest of Prescott, and moved to Payson in 1919 with his wife Sarah. He opened a butcher shop and they lived in a house behind Pieper’s saloon. Sources: 1. Oral history taken by Stan Brown with Audrie Harrison in his home at 411 Frontier in Payson, April 11, 1998. 2.

COVER STORY | TERESA MCQUERREY

A spot for quiet reflection, at left, takes center place in the back gardens of the home of Lovenia Villareal and Bill Roundtree. Irv and Louise Bossert have much of their garden planted, but this healthy-looking tomato plant, above, is waiting in their greenhouse for them to find it a home outside.
Garden Walk
Rim Area Gardeners add plant sale to 2015 event
Tucked back on winding roads are tiny Rim Country jewels — gardens lovingly created in celebration of Earth’s bounty. Five of these jewels are on display this weekend in the Rim Area Gardeners’ 2015 Garden Walk and Plant Sale, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, May 9. Tickets are $5 each and may be purchased at Ace Hardware, Payson; Fancy Finds Gift Shop, Pine; Plant Fair Nursery, Star Valley; the public libraries of both Payson and Pine; or at any of the gardens on the day of the walk. The inclusion of a plant sale with the tour is a new addition this year, according to tour coordinator Nancy Jones.
THE GARDENS IRV AND LOUISE BOSSERT 601 N. SPUR, PAYSON
Directions: On N. Highway 87 turn west at stoplight at Forest, go past tree in center of road, then turn south on Spur, to second place on left. The new buzz words in gardening are “be water wise” and this property and garden is a must see for anyone serious about sustainable gardening. Here is a proven
system on how to capture water. The captured water is then routed to an enclosed vegetable garden and other shrubs and flowers. The Bosserts have been in the Rim Country for about 35 years, first with a summer cabin in Thompson Draw II and then 10 years ago they bought their home on Spur. It was a cabin too and the property was overgrown from the house to the road. Built in about 1972, it also had an orchard with apple, peach and apricot trees. The orchard is on its own — no special watering system feeds the trees, now at least three decades old. The rest of the property is a different story. The couple have done a lot of work to create a roomy, single level home and tamed the wild they found when they bought it. “We were lucky when we found this place, but we did a lot of work,” Louise said. “The work never finishes,” added Irv. Surprisingly, they have more trouble with elk at the Spur place than they did up in the higher Rim elevation. Not so surprisingly, they have a lot more in their garden. Up on the Rim they had irises and a few tomatoes. There are lots of flowers, all benefiting from the water harvesting and distribution Irv created. Sitting on their front porch the last day of April, the morning air was intoxicating with the scent of a still-blooming lilac bush.
“It starts out purple and then turns white,” Louise explained. The sun filters through the pines, spotlighting the main flower garden on the property. It sits between the house and the street, enclosed in a split-rail fence that is surrounded by wire to deter the always-hungry elk that regularly visit the neighborhood. The flower garden has irises and tulips. They recently planted a peony and a Korean lilac, Louise said. Irv said he was inspired to create his water harvesting system after he saw one at a friend’s. Over the years he has collected 14 tanks and can now store up to 5,000 gallons of water. The tanks are set up to collect the water that runs off the structures and then it is transferred to other containers from which he runs a hose to water his vegetable garden. The 5,000 gallons collected is enough to take care of the vegetable and flower gardens from the late spring until the monsoons arrive or from two to two-and-a-half months. The monsoons generally refill the tanks. “You have to be conservative (with the water), but it doesn’t take as much as you think,” he said. Not much goes to waste, he added. Irv said people don’t have to spend a lot of money on fancy water harvest systems; they just need a system that works.
DONG SOON TRISDALE 506 N. WOODHILL RD., PAYSON
Directions: Go to Forest and turn left (west) on McLane, turn right (north) to Alpine Village. Turn into Alpine Village on W. Sherwood and follow that to Woodhill, turn left to eighth place on the right. This garden features an amazing display of trees and plants in a diminutive setting. The trees range from native to exotic with every inch being utilized. The tour plant sale is at this location. It will feature bulbs, herbs and more. LOVENIA VILLAREAL AND BILL ROUNDTREE 803 N. BLUE SPRUCE, PAYSON
Directions: Follow curve right on Woodhill, which then becomes Country Lane. Continue to Blue Spruce; cross Sherwood which then becomes Blue Spruce North, home is second on right. This home has a wonderful, open, inviting curb appeal with walls, flowering shrubs, and a side yard that becomes a terraced vegetable garden with kale, lettuce and more. It also has a handcrafted drainage system that features walkways and many plantings. The terraces at the Blue Spruce home were created to deal with drainage and erosion problems and in the process, lifelong gardener Bill decided to add topsoil, creating beds for all kinds of vegetation.

Two of the Bosserts’ 14 water harvesting tanks, at left, are tucked up against their garage. Together the 14 tanks store 5,000 gallons of water. One of the Villareal/Roundtree terraces, above, offers a delicious collection of colors, while a grouping of shrubs, below, creates a beautiful welcome to the couple’s back gardens.
Rim gardens on tour show variety of delights FROM PAGE 6
Years ago Bill worked in the Phoenix area and his travels brought him through Payson. Life eventually took him to Colorado where he met Lovenia. The couple moved to her family’s home in Kansas and then, after visiting Arizona in the late winter about five years ago, decided to relocate to Payson. “The neighbors called this place ‘The Tombs’ when we first moved here,” Lovenia said. There was a faux drainage and piles of pine needles. The couple set about cleaning up the property and putting in terraces. The property at the back of the house is much lower than that of their neighbor. It’s a compact space though, so all the work had to be done by hand — cleaning, soil moved, block walls built and the soil returned to the space within the walls. Both Lovenia and Bill have gardened all their lives. “Of course when we were kids, it was work,” Bill said. They thought they would only be able to garden in pots in Payson, but with their terraces they have a varied, inviting landscape. Each year they like to add an exotic plant or two to their growing horticultural and floricultural collection. Among their most recent additions: a Japanese lilac, a cotoneaster tree and a chaste tree. Bill didn’t know why it is called a chaste tree, but a visit to Wikipedia showed this definition — “it has been long believed to be an
anaphrodisiac (quelling the libido) but its effectiveness remains controversial.” Bill also likes to plant at least a couple of new varieties of tomatoes each year. He said once they get established and the weather stabilizes, tomatoes are easy and they have even had some plants that produce all the way into November. Among the best he has found are Cherokee purple, Steakhouse and Brandywine. The best for sauce is the San Marzano, he said. The new varieties added this year are Red Lightning and Porterhouse. He can get tomatoes that weigh up to a pound and thinks he might even get two-pounders this year. Bill and Lovenia give a lot of their tomatoes away, freeze quite a few and make all kinds of dishes with the bounty. He said novice gardeners can find a lot of plants almost guaranteed to grow. Lovenia said gaillardias and butterfly bushes are easy, so are sedums and succulents and there are lots from which to choose. Another plant she recommends is stonecroft, which is a sedum with an interesting texture and is very hardy at Payson’s elevation. “It’s not much to look at on its own, but it enhances whatever you plant with it,” she said. VEE AND DEAN GOODING 800 W. ST MORITZ DR., PAYSON
Directions: Back to Sherwood turn left (east) go to St. Moritz on left, and then turn left to Monarch turn and house is on
corner of St. Moritz and Monarch. Features include two sheltered gardens, which produced greens all winter as well as a terraced vegetable garden. There is a water collection system housed inside a sunroom and whimsical ideas for the grandkids. Many varieties of fruit trees suitable for the Payson area thrive at this location. JOANNE CHILCOAT, 622 E. FLOWING SPRINGS DRIVE, PAYSON (JUST OUTSIDE OF PAYSON)
Directions: Take Monarch back to Sherwood turn left and go back to McLane. Turn left (east) to Airport Road turn right, go to roundabout, go (north) past Home Depot on Highway 87 for two (2) miles just past mile marker 287 to Flowing Springs Road on right. Turn on this road, which becomes a gravel road for 2.7 miles go through access gate at Flowing Springs and follow road to East Flowing Springs Road. Then turn right, cross the river two times until you reach dead end sign house is on left. If you are looking for adventure take this short drive out of Payson to Flowing Springs where you will discover a most unique garden design with so many varieties of plants, shrubs and garden art much of it made and designed by the owner. Meander on many paths and enjoy the solitude of this rural setting.
WATCH FOR SIGNS There will be Green Thumb markers to guide guests on the Garden Tour route.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be a bit shaken by a friend’s request. But before the Lamb leaps to conclusions, insist on a full explanation. You still might say no, but at least you’ll know what you’re saying no to. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Seeing red over those nasty remarks by someone with an ax to grind? Of course you are. So get out there and give your supporters the facts they need to get the truth out. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A changing situation should get you to reassess your vacation plans and make any adjustments as soon as possible. And don’t fret -- the change most likely will turn out for the better. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t put off dealing with any negative feelings that might be left over from a recent confrontation. The sooner all is resolved, the sooner you can move forward with fewer complications. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Leos and Leonas might feel the urge to redecorate their dens, and that can turn into a good opportunity to strengthen family ties by putting the whole pride to work to make it happen. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Look for the most efficient way to get a job done quickly and well. Taking more time than you need to make it look more challenging is a short-sighted move you might regret later on. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Travel remains strong in your aspect & this time, it could involve someone traveling a great distance to come to see you. Meanwhile, an important matter suddenly could need your attention. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A workplace situation becomes a lot more bothersome than you’d expected. Be careful not to be pulled into all that anger. Look for support among others who also want to avoid trouble. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Cheer up, lonely lovers, wherever you are. Just when you thought you’d been deleted from Cupid’s database, the chubby cherub proves that’s just not so. Congratulations. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A casual relationship could take a more serious turn. Are you ready for it? Your stars say you are. Paired Sea Goats also will find a renewed richness in their relationships. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Meeting a collaborator with new ideas seems to be a dream come true. But for both your sakes, be sure all your legal i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed before you start working together. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A romantic overture flatters the usually unflappable Fish. But since it’s a sincere from-the-heart gesture, go ahead and enjoy it. A minor health problem responds well to treatment. BORN THIS WEEK: You have the warm heart of a Taurean and the sensitivity of a Gemini. You would make a wonderful leader. So go ahead: Run for office. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

Mission’s message appropriate for all FROM PAGE 5
has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 10. Thanking God for delivering us from the power of darkness and translating us into the kingdom of the Son of His love in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our sins. My dear friends … this is my prayer for all those in my hometown here and in the surrounding communities where I live, serve and also teach. My desire is that we can keep our self unspotted from this world (James 1:27) and sanctify to Christ and Him alone. So regardless of me teaching this message around the world to various people, this is something I pray for those in my own community, myself and loved ones. SEEK CHRIST! Cling to Him and Him alone. He CAN be found! But rather He has found you! CALENDAR
