W ater Supply is Prime Question Over the State New Wells and Equipment Being Erovidcd at Many Places Haul Water to Blair. Red Cloud. With two new wells recently completed to supplement the capacity of the local plant, no con cern has been felt more over the wa- j ter supply, even tho consumption this summer has run twice what it nor- j mally is. The additional wells were built none too soon, as without them j it would have been necessary to place restrictions on watering weeks j ago. Instead, early in the summer water rates were reduced 25 percent for the summer months, which en couraged its use considerably. The situation now is in marked contrast to a few years ago, when with condi tions much more favorable than now it was necessary not only to curtail consumption, but at times turn water from a nearby creek into the mains. Blair. Blair is threatened with a water shortage for the first time in its history. The unprecedented condition re sulted because of use of water on lawns and use by farmers, who are hauling it to their farms in 500 and 00 gallon tanks daily. Many coun try wells have failed. Water Commissioner Morris asked that all residents start conserving on water. Guide Rock. Pawnee lake, built last spring near here under state supervision with funds raised by sub scription from a number of soutn central Nebraska towns, is not filling as rapidly as was expected. Fed by springs, the prolonged drouth has cut the flow into the lake to such an extent that little change in the water level has been noted the past j two months. When filled this lake was to have covered about thirty-five acres. S-iward Seward has good city wa ter and plenty of it, but during the present drouth the city pumps, which are fifteen years old, and many water mains were found to be small and inadequate fcr present needs. The city council called two special meet ing this week, consulting with Spec ial Engineer V. L. Hollister. A re sult, three new pumps will be pur chased, a turbine pump at the wells, a booster pump in a new pump house which will be built near the present reservoir, and a new fire pump. Changes in tha water system include laying cf over 100 feet of new water pipe. Jean Chadburn. . . .

Did Ycu Knew Thnf Vrlbcp Prerv n rrark nis- i toi snot with either hand? ASKS FOR INJUNCTION From Saturday's Dally An action was filed in the district court today in which C. Lawrence Stuil is the plaintiff and W. B. Alex ander, engineer in charge of the work on highway No. 75, and oth ers are the defendants. Mr. Stuil asks that the defendants be required to make him a private crossing from one section of his land to the other, the highway lying for some distance through his farm. It is set forth that the need of the crossing is imperative as he has large numbers cf cattle and hogs that to properly water and care for requires that he have this crossing rather than be required to go long dis tances out of the way to care for the stock and hogs. Owing to the absence of Judge D. W. Livingston from the court it is asked that the injunction be grant ed by the county court to the plain tiff. The various civil wars in the Eu ropean states are perhaps just, re minders of what those nations would be doing to each ether if they had any money. (Political Advertising) J. E. Eeeder for Co.
