Hoes AND PIGs.-A large amount of
talk has been made in reference to dogs,
of their being nuisance, and that few
OF them being killed off would not go
amiss; but We have much greater nui-
sance around this town than the dogs,
and that nuisance is the hogs and pigs
that are allowed to run at large through
our main streets, alleyways, ETC., max.
ing swill tub of the whole town and
rendering night hideous by their crunch
ing noise, awakening citizens and keep
ing awake those that desire to sleep.
Something should be done about this
matter at once, and owners for their
own sake should keep them penned up,
for there is no doubt in the world but
they have eaten half the poison scattered
around intended for dogs; people know
this and of course do not wish any hog
meat just at this present time. There is
remedy to keep these hogs and pigs off
the street, and it should be applied at
once.
OvERFLow.--The overflow of water on
Meadow Valley street was caused by the
shutting down of the valve near the
Floral mill. The water is being used
for irrigating, and two large supply
was not wanted at one time, and for that
reason the valve was closed. Captain
Lubbock is about fixing the water ar
rangements at the lower end of town so
that when the valve is closed that the
surplus water will flow off down there
and not from Meadow Valley street.
