CITY'S WATER SUPPLY.
Commissioner Westerheld Reports
Over Sixteen Million Gallons.

commissioner WeSterheld Reports
Over Sixteen Million Gallons.
Land and Water Commissioner Yves
terfield on Friday. made a measure
ment of the streams flowing into the
pipe system, exclusive of Emigration
creek, which is small and found that
City creek is furnishing 2.417, 5S4 gallons
every twenty-four hours, compared
with 6,259.6S0 on July u, 1900 Parley's
creek is flowing at the rate of 1888, 232.
as against 5,762,S46 gallons a year ago
While it appears that the water from
CITY creek canyon is holding out better
than Parley's creek, the fact is that
since early in the season ali the bitches
have been running full. flooding the
bench lands in the canyon. Last year
much of this water was allowed to run
down the canyon earlier in the season.
Should this water be TUNED back into
the creek. the flow would be increased
at once, COmnIissi oner WesterfieId de-
claTes, 100000 gallons daily. Later in
the season the canyon stream will be
replenished from the bitches, but in
the estimation of Commissioner Yves
terrified, the flow from Parley's has been
increased steadily 2, 600, 600 gallons daily
50 far this season by flooding the bench
lands since early in February.

Wonderful "Sand-bOw'' Wit
messed by Prof. TaImaqe.

Professor James f. Talmage of the
University of Utah has started a dis
cusstOn concerning what he terms a
sand bow that promises to be of the
deepest interest to scientific men at
least. On May IS Of this year DR.. Tai
mage and a party of friends were on
Antelope island. AS they were de
scending the eastern slope of the island
irf-the evening, what appeared to be a
segment of a brilliant rainbow of un-
usual width appeared between the is
land and the mainland. There was no
rain falling at the time. but there was
a strong wind blowing toward the
mainland ard carrying large quanti-
ties of "OOlitic sand" from the island.
The particles of sand We're about the
size of No. s or No. 10 shot. highly pol
Ished and uniform in size. The con-
cluslOn reached was that the optical
phenomenon in the heavens was pro-
duCed by the action of the suns rays
on these particles OF dust or sand
The bow seemed to almost touch the
surface of the lake and the prismatic
COlOrs were very distinct the red being
on the outside: the bow was fully
double the size of the ordinary
rainbow, and there was a secondary
bow with the colors reversed. The bow
was to be seen for fully five minutes

CROPS IN DANGER
FROM GRAsSHoPPERs.
Especial Observation-Disclosures


Ephraim, July 13.-The grasshoppers are
still with us, doing incaiculable damage to
crops. The hope that they would fly
away as soon as their wings We're devei-
oped has proved a delusiOn They are
now scattering both north and south
through the country, destroying crops as
they go.
Many farmers have cut their grain for
tesd, in order to save a portion Of it.
Every load of hay that is brought into
the city contains sWarms of hoppers, and
they are now scattered all over town.
Iney have begun to attack the gardens
in many places.
Farmers are greatly alarmed over the
situation. Not only are they confronted
with this season loss OF crops. but there
seems to be no hope tor next year as the
grasshoppers are already laying their
eggs all over the fields.
