NO WATER FAMINE IS FEARED
Supt. Knight Says There is Plenty Of
Water Flowing From Springs
Fed by Mill Creek.

Fears of a water famine, such as
occurred last year, were set at rest
today by Water Superintendent Knight
who stated that although this has been
one of the dryest seasons in several
years, the springs supplying the city
reservoirs are flowing more than they
did in the early spring.
The superintendent accounts for
this by the fact that the heavy floods
last May cleared the bed of Mill creek
of an accumulation of silt with the re-
suit that subterranean channels, fed
by Mill creek are flowing unobstruct-
ed.
The superintendent says many new
springs have broken out in the vicini-
ty of the old ones and the increased
flow has made it possible to supply the
heavy consumption during the past
two months.
Have Plenty Of Water.
1--WE have ample water for all or
binary purposes although at times the
head at the reservoirs is rather low,"
said Superintendent Knight. 'The
floods last May were fortunate for the
city. The bed of Mill creek was then
cleared of years of accumulations OF
silt, allowing the water to percolate
freely into the subterannean channels.
All the springs supplying the city res
ervoirs are flowing more water than
they have for years during the dry
season and many new springs have
broken out. The increased water was
acceptable, coming just at time when
needed the worst.
"Unless there comes exceptionally
long periods of drought, Walla Walla
will be able to worry along nicely this
season with the old system, although
if was necessary to curtail the sprinakl-
ing hours somewhat
