FARMERS AGGRIEVED.
Saturday. Messr Jarvis and Knud-
| son of the Utah lake commission, were
| over from Provo taking measurements,
enc. at the head Of The Jordan river.
| This Is no doubt a move on the part
| OF certain Utah county farmers 10 Sc
| cure exact information as to the con-
| dition OF Utah lake waters, as Utah
| lake Is six inches above compromise
| point and Is already flooding much
| OF the land along it, shores. In the
| next six months the lake level will con-
tinue to rise ana II Is thought that
at least 1000 acres of land will be
submerged along its shores unless dras-
tic measures are taken by the canal
companies TO drain this vast amount
Of water off the lake and keep II down
| 10 compromise point. IL Is thought
the farmers of Utah county are OBJ
tanning information 10 compel the can
nj companies TO take care of this water
and so prevent so much flooding. The
pumps will be idle this year as they
were last and 1t will probably be that
the canal companies viii have 10 spend
money 10 reduce the lake level instead
OF pumping.
