Frank Francis, Mayor, Ogden I Gl'ty. I C, Ogden. Utah. M; Dear Mr. Mayor: "Lrcad your letter of Juno 7th (Ogden Standard-Examiner) in which you pay your respects to the "Water Hog." In the opinion of the writer the "Water Uog" is not responsible to an alarm ing decree for the shortage of water. I was at the city reservoir at te.n o'clock this morning and found botli reservoirs full almost to overflowing-; a. few minutes later I was at Artesian Park and found eight artesian Wells j closed down. r-Now, Mr. Mayor, did you ever hear ' oT such a condition existing in our ! city before? Just think of it, the res- orvoirs full to overflowing, eight ar tesian wells closed down and at the same time practically all of our cltl Vij 'ens were suffering for water. What may we expect in July and August? .,Do you think it fair and just to pun T ish all of our citizens because a few I ', '-water hogs" violate the sprinkling I laws? j ' The writer has been a citizen of Og i den for fifty years and can say that no similar condition has been permit ted to exist since tho waterworks sys- loin was taken over by the city. Respectfully, A. G. FELL, June ninth. oo I Ogden Engineers Adopt Reso t . lution Suggesting Meters M - as Solution , . Installation of meters as a solution : o'f' the adverse water situation in Ij Ogden is suggested in a resolution t adopted by the Ogden chapter; of the American Association of Engl tieers, which met Tuesday evening. The resolution is to be presented to the city commission. 4; Stating that the cnosumption of 7i water averages as high as 500 to 600 V gallons of Avater per capita during , i the summer months, the resolution ' 1 declares, that "It has been demon t 3 strated beyond the question of a ' doubt that metering of all water con I . sumes decreases the consumption 1 of v.'ater and at the same time gives ; e, all consumers the amount of water I V needed and yet at the came time M "Ii maintains a much better pressure in r ' the waterworks system. This has been proven throughout the United j States and is now being adopted by the progressive cities of the coun ! wo try-" 1 1 It was stated that the consumption ft "would be decreased 30 per cent by jl the use of meters and give all con st sumers a sufficient amount of water I i at all times without discrimination "A man pay,s for what he uses and ' , j ?t he decs not pay for the waste caused J I by the greediness of the' 'wa.tefhog." y j It was also recommended that "the city of Ogden acquire additional i Rights and construct additional water i . supply mains to the city, said supply j ! i of additional water to be sufficient ' 1 lo take care of the city for a mini-1 ber of years to come as we feel that this time is the time to ac qirire additional waters as it never -A, will be acquired any cheaper and if the city neglects this matter at this j a Ume it is a question where the cltv ) j will obtain any more water when I ' -1 the waters in the immediate vicinity j are appropriated for other purposes. ! "j reconstruction of adequate feeder I mains and distributing mains to those Prts of the city now needing water, I . was also suggested, wl The engineers offered their sup u 4f port to the city in meeting the water j J needs. 1 1 j EMBARGO ON COAL CARS I' h :.

Cecil, Alter, in charge of the Salt Lake station of tho United States weather bureau. The bulletin follows: "This was the warmest week of the season and there was no important precipitation. Irrigated crops made excellent growth, though tho season is still rather backward in some northern localities. Tho high temperatures and strong winds depleted the soil mois ture in most farming regions, retard ing growth somewhat, and inducing a need for rain- generally. Alfalfa made unusually rapid advancement, and. while It is still immature, it is being cut more or less generally because of '! weevil attacks, and the shortage of I hay. Alfalfa weevil spraying is pro , grossing In Sevier county. In the more northerly valleys some alfalfa. potatoes, tomatoes and garden stuff were set back somewhat by the frost of June 1. Fall rye is coming Into head in tho southern" counties and winter wheat is reported good to ex cellent generally; spring wheat is doing well, and while corn has been planted late in many places it is generaly prom ising. Beet .thinning is advancing fa vorably and the crop looks fine. Dry, cold weather has ben hard on field crops at Emery. Potato planting Is not yet completed at Morgan. Late cherries and other late fruits are thriv ing generally, though some pears arc dropping at Elbcrta. and In Salt Lake county some old apple trees are not bearing heavily. Orchard spraying is well along, being completed in places. Livestock is gaining rapidly every where, somo steers having been shipped from Grand county.
