Splendid Roads
Rexburg is provided with the best
possible roads, and all sections are
reached by good county roads and
driveways. In addition to fine roads
and splendid sidewalks, the city has
q splendid electric lighting plant and
excellent telephone service, being in
communication with all sections of
the intermountain country.
Waterworks
Rexburg has completed and has in
active service a splendid water sys-
tenn, The water supply is obtained
from well at depth of eighty feet,
sunk in solid lava. There is an unlim-
tied supply of water and the quality
can not be questioned, as 1t comes
from strong underground current,
and is entirely free from sediment. A
powerful pump, driven by a fifty
horsepower electric motor, forces the
water through twelve-inch pipe for
five blocks, up hill, to the reservoir,
which is 100 feet higher than our Main
street, ana causes the water to exert
a pressure in town OF sixty pounds
to the square inch. The reservoir is
made of cement, and to protect the
water, is covered with good durable
roof, When full, the reservoir holds
10000 gallons of water, and pumps
$50 gallons minute. A trifle more
than eight hours are required to fill
the reservoir.
Rexburg's fire hose in play will use
It's gallons OF water minute, and at
that rate it would require 16 hours to
empty the reservoir. The pipe be-
tween the well and the reservoir holds
81, 900 gallons of water, and can all be
used in town in case the supply of
the reservoir is exhausted. 1t is esti-
mated that the average family Of five
persons will use for all purposes 100
gallons of water day, or 20 gallons
to the individual. At this rate the
reservoir holds sufficient water to
supply a population of $500 water
users one day.
The expense of putting in the water
system has been met by bond is
sue of $4,000, part of which has
been used to equip fire department.
The interest on the $4,000 amounts
to 500 month, and is met by a
special water tax.
