The Water

Two new pumping engines are being put up at Whitneyville by the Now Haven Water company. They will be used to pump the water from the lake directly into the mains. The big engine is still at work and will be re- tained. Citizens should use the water with the utmost economy now, for the drouth has been the most severe in years. The drouth and intense heat has about exhausted the water in the Maltby Park lakes, and Whitney Lake is the main resource and the two new engines have been put in, as additional power is required, the water in the lake being also considerably lowered.
