Farmaro of tho Scvlcr Valley Gladly
Deprived Thtm-slvjo of PrccloU3
Liquid to Gavo Crops of the
Less Fortunate.
It had boon tho hottest and driest
fuiintnor over recorded on the Pahvant
plains In western Utah. Moro water
thnn ever bcfoio was needed for the
Pahvant ciops; but as the previous
winter had been recotded us bavins
an evtroinyly light biiowfull, the late
Miiniiiur How of the Sevier river (pro
nnuiiccd "nevero") from the btiow
stores of the Wasatch mountains, was
at a minimum.
'Jherefoiu In spite- of rigid wnter
economy there was an Insufficient sup
ply to mature tho crops In thut re
gion. Early in the season It became
apparent thnt if borne good rains did
not come nt timely Intervals there
would be widespread devastation of
the crops; and despite the earnest
hopes oX the people, tho windows of
the sky remained sealed so far as the
rain was concerned, and the brassy
skies drank up every speck of mols
turo everywhere, even draining tho
reservoir dry a mouth before tho po
tatocs and beets were mntured. The
apples fell to the ground withered,
and the alfalfa stubble could not send
out the shoots for the third crop of
hay, the drought wna so thorough.
After experts had been consulted
with no good result, an olllclnl of the
state farm bureau, with a few other
citizens, mndu nn inspiring rldo In
automobiles up through n small range
of mountains Into tho Sevier valley,
where tho crops had not suffered
greatly, owing to the fact that the
fanners In this region held prhnnry
rights to tho wnter of tho river. The
modern Paul Revere4, coining to the
rewucj of the unfortunate farmers
farther down the stream, appealed to
the Irrigation company otllclals In this
region, and requested the loan of the
iier for 21 hours.
They were assured In response that
the Golden Rule i cached not only
ucro&s the f-'evler valley, but on down
to tho Pahvant ns well, and a vote
tal.cn was unanimous In favor of clos
ing the Sevier valley head gates by
midnight that very night and leaving
tlicm closed ns requested.
The returning midnight riders reach
ed Pahvant valley many hours before
the water, which began to nrrlvo late
the next forenoon. Tho mammoth
Sevier river, no longer full nnd turbu
lent nt this time of the year, but flow-In-
abundantly, nevertheless, went
hounding Joyfully down through the
htony canyons, carrying good tidings
of tho genulno friendship of tho Sevier
valley farmers.
That afternoon every Pahvant farm
er was In his fields guiding the pre
cious wnter ncros tho lands, where It
kissed bnck Into liveliness nnd hope
tho despondent crops; and all that
night and the next day the men la
bored on In gratitude, until tho wn
ter began to dwindle, and then llnally
tl ceased. Hut It was enough; 2.200 acres
of crops worth bundled4, of thousands
ofdnllnr., were saved and a commu
nity wax made happy. Christian Sci
ence Monitor.
