then use it for irrigation purposes

The people of Weber county, thought
Mir West, should not be Indifferent
to this scheme. Naturally the wat

and to their neighbors up the stream
Before any OF the waters OF this
stream are diverted to another chan
mel to be used in developing the
resources of distant part of the
state, the people of Weber county
and their neighbors up the stream
should see TO IT that their own needs
as regards water supply, both pres
ent and prospective, are well proyij-

This year there has been a scarcity
Of water. Farmers upon the lower
lands adjacent TO the Weber have suf-

And experience has shown that Ike

and more apparent as the years go by.
