FEXpenSe saved.

The above estimates OF annual rev
enues do not include revenue from If
rigation, or from future improvement:
in the districts.
Several pipe lines that are included
in the estimates of cost would bt
used in connecting the supply mains
with other sections of the city, anC
must justly be charged to the genera
system.
The sewer system has been much
handicapped from the start because
of lack of water for flushing, and il
some portions of the ci y connections
have not been allowed because nc
water is available.
In business portions of the city
much revenue would be derived from
the use of water motors which will be
used to a great extent by small in
dustries just as soon as sufficinet
pressur~ is secured.
Perhaps the most important consid
Grafton is the increased fire protec
ton to all parts Of the city, and the
consequent lowering of insurance
rates. With the proposed source OF
supply the pressure at the eastern
city limits will be 65 pounds TO the
square inch, and at Thirteenth street
it will be 100 pounds, making it pos
sible to successfully fight fire in any
portion of the city without the use
of fire engines.
These We believe the most impor-
tant reasons for the speedy execu.
ton of the proposed extensions and
improvements.
