The water supertntendent's report con-
tains sta atstics indicating that meters are
practically as cheap to the consumer OF
that by metering the city the present
water supply could be made to supply
much larger popula ton by saving useless
waste and without in any way depriving
the people Of all tho water they can
possibly need
It is shown that during 1918 the city
used 6,7a6: :090. 900 gallons OF water. The
average daily consumption was 18.6l6.621
gallons, and the average daily consump-
ton per capita, figuring on q basis OF
100, 900 population was 186 gallons.
Inter-d department Use.
The report calls attention to the fact
that the water department Is furnishing
other city departments S24,426 gallons
daily for which no charge is made to the
receiving departments. Tho water de-
partment bears the cost Of supplying this
water, which, II charged at the rate of
cents per 1000 gallons, the lowest meter
rate, would amount to S39,962.A year

value of the watersheds as q source OF

The United States forestry service Is
favorable to such an undertaking by this
or any other city, according To The re-
port. and the local representatives OF the
service have advised the water depart
ment that they will contribute 1000 trees
annually for this purpose. The plan Is
respectfully urged upon the commission
as means of providing future revenue
TO the city from lands that now yield
nothing, and as a means OF protecting the
watersheds and Increasing water supply.
Will Increase Flow.
1t is a known fact that timbered
watershed results in larger, more reli-
able and steadier flow in the streams
that feed from IL. On this point tho re-
port contains the following:
The city now owns large area OF
ground composing the different wa
tershecs which is not productive and
Is bringing no return. No attention
has heretofore been given to the mat
ter of making this ground productive,
yet IL Is known that the creator pro
portion can be made to yield fair
returns on money invested In the
planting of the proper variety Of
trees. Many countries, notably Ger
many. Switzerland and France, have
practiced municipal forestry for
three or four hundred years and In
every instance il has been demon
strated that these forests can play
an important part in municipal
economy.
AS result OF practicing scientific
forestry on these municipal forests,
e revenue OF from 50 to $40 an acre
per year has been secured, whereby
