Alderman Levinger brought up the
question of increasing the water supply
inasmuch as he had been approached
by water consumers. The council is
anxious to give consumers all the
water possible but when people plainly
violate the ordinance in reference to
the use of nozzles on hose it is diff.
cult matter to keep up the supply.
The idea was discussed of attaching
the pump direct with the we'll and
pump into the mains and thus not dis
turb the volume of water in the reser-
voir, which must at all times be kept
full in case OF ire. By pumping from
the we'll it is figured that three hours
of pressure day can be given. How
ever, to make the connection of the
pump with the we'll it will cost the
city about $50. Alderman Levinger
suggested that the water committee be
instructed to act with Engineer Roth
in making the connection with the
we'll, and the committee was so author
lied to act. Engineer Roth was anxi-
Gus to have consumers keep the nozzles
on the hose but as there was no way
perceptible of having this done the
council could offer him no encourage
ment, but Mr.. Roth says it is fact
that if the consumers will adhere to his
nozzle idea that they will get just as
much and the pressure will be kept on
three times as long. The council seemed
to have the correct idea of increasing
the water supply by sinking a shallow
well, and it is probable that later in
the year this idea will be carried out.
Asrequired by law the names of fif-
teen mon were selected to keep the
jury list complete at the clerk of courts

A TEST CASE.
The Jurisdiction of Sam Sneed Is
Disputed.

The Jurisdiction of Sam Sneed Is
Disputed.
Mrs. j. W. Lambert, a neigh Dor OF
Sam Sneed was around yesterday after
noon hunting the district attorney to
get warrant for the arrest of the
alderman from the 'steenth ward. She
charges him with having hogged her
hopeful son who infracted some law
laid down by Mr.. Sneed for the better
government of his bailiwick.
Some time ago that gentleman be.
came the self constituted guardian OF
good order in his immediate vicinity.
He made the community especially
torrid for dogs, chickens, bicyclists and
the man who drives the sprinkling
wagon. He secured the enforcement
not only OF all the ordinances then in
force but in order to keep himself more
fully employed managed to have some
new ones passed
Latterly he extended his Jurisdiction
over the children CT the community.
Young Lam bert's is considered a test
case and Mrs. Lambert says that when
she gets through with Mr.. Sneed he'll
think that incident of house falling
upon him last Saturday was hardly
worth mentioning.

Fruit Instead OF Gram.

Much more food can be grown on IN
acre devoted to fruit than can be pro-
duced with any kind of grain. Fruit
growing also provides greater amount
of work and requires larger number
of helpers. To the extent that fruit
growing is substituted for grain grow
ing there will naturally be an increase
Of country farming population. This
is what is the most needed to make land
valuable. The growing of grain makes
the land poorer, especially where the
grain is sold. Where fruit is grown the
chief loss to the soil is in the mineral
elements, and the sale of the fruit
brings money to purchase these. Sell
ing grain never returns enough to re-
store the fertility expended in growing
