TAKE WATER
FROM CUTTERS
FOR IRRIGAIING PURPOSES
Thrifty Citizen Acquires Old Habit
and Is Slated for Talk With Street
and Ditch Committee.

Enterprising citizens who use the
water which flows in the cutters along
the business and residence streets are
slated for more trouble with the street
and ditch committee of the city coun-
Gil. A man on north Second street
has discovered that by damming the
street ditch and building a fiume
under the side walk he can irrigate
his lawn and garden and cut down his
monthly water bill. Monday and
Wednesday nights after midnight are
the irrigating periods. AS the result
of the display of thriftiness the gutter
on the right side of Second street is as
dry as bone from midnight until
policeman can see in the morning.
Old Trouble.
The practice of using the water in
the street cutters for irrlgating pur-
poses is an old failing. Last spring
a man on north First street acquired
the habit and threats of arrest and
prosecution alone caused him to cease.
The same argument stopped the prac-
tice in three cases on Third street, and
like warning will be given to the
Second street man. There is city Or
provides a penalty. The water which
flows in the cutters is from the Union

WATER USERS

Grandview People Think That the

A number of the water users as
ISOLATION of the valley, in preparing
answers to the lists of questions pro-
pounded by the United States Senate
committee on irrigation and reclama-
ton of arid lands, show themselves
not completely satisfied with the re-
clamation law as it stands. There is
a feeling that the water users, who
are ultimately required to pay all OK
penses of construction, operation and
repair, should be kept informed of ex
penditures made by reclamation Of
ficials on the projects which closely
concern them and that the trustees of
the associations should be consulted
before work is begun on the projects.
Ask an Accounting.
The Grandview Water Users asso-
citation, at recent meeting, prepared
number of resolutions along this
line to be voted on at it's next meeting.
1t requests that trustees be consulted
before work of construction or extern
sion is undertaken, that some sort of
accounting of expenses be made them;
tIdl d copy u Tie pay IOllS De trans
mitted the society and that the water
users association be permitted to take
charge of the operation and repair Of
the irrigation works after their con-
struction. 1t also believes that the
law should be amended to provide that
before any contract is made by the
government with any water users
association, that the bylaws of that
association should provide that each
stakeholder should have but one vote
without regard to the number of
shares he owns.
Adequate Drainage Asked.
The association also favors an ad-
equate drainage system to prevent the
seepage and spread of waste water
which causes the land to become too
alkali.
The cost of maintaining and oper-
ating the canal it suggests could be
greatly reduced by permitting the
work to be controlled by those who
have to pay the expenses.

This girdling causes the twig to
die, thus offering food for the youne

in and the larvae have ideal condi.

The larvae does not complete its
growth in the fall, but after feeding
for time it hibernates. completing its
growth and transformation to an
adult beetle the following season.
The adult beetles. because of their
dull colors and general habits, are
very hard to find or catch. The beetle
dies in the fall, and therefore we
must fight this insect in the egg and
larvae stages. The method recon-
mended is to gather and bury all fan.

fallen. This destroys the eggs and
larvae that would develop into next
seasons brood.
