Editor, Kennebec Journal:
I noted several items in your papers
this morning with reference to the
water in the Baker Fountain in Market
Square.
think a full knowledge of the
situation at Carleton Pond would con-
vince almost any one that it is wise
on the part of the Augusta Water
District. which is the City of Augusta,
to conserve, so far rs Ii can. the waste
of water unnecessarily. AT the pres
ent time the water in Carleton Pond is
five feet below the spillway. a condi-
ton different than we have ever ex-
perienced since the city went to that
lake for it's water, Every gallon OF
water that is used in Augusta today
is pumped by electricity at a certain
cost every gallon saved reduces that
expense and further avoids a possible
necessity of taking water from Lake
Cobbosseecontee. where 1t would have
to be pumped at a still higher expense.
During the nighttime there can be
very little use for running water in
the fountain i'm Market Square, so.
late in the evening the water is turned
off and then turned on again early in
the morning. This is done entirely in
the interest of the City of Augusta and
it's citizens pay the water bills.
