A remarkable thing happened al
Hobart recently when the proposed
water supply for the city Of Hobart
the river went clear dry just as the
dams, providing for water supply
for the Hobart waterworks were
practically completed.
All last season, one Of the dryesl
in the history OF Oklahoma. the
engineers Kept close tab on the
stream and deemed that it was a
safe proposition for water supply.
There was never a time during that
dry season when there was not a
stream Of water flowing. and yet
after a season Of wet weather and
while work was rapidly progressing
on the waterworks, the river sud
denly goes dry
"A hasty examination is made and
and the river is explored fifteen
miles up stream to find the same
conditions exist up there And now
at Hobart they are hustliug around
trying to get wells Tor city water
