NOTICE TO CITY WATER USERS

Most of the citizens know that for
some time our deep well pump has
been out of commission and from
present Indications it may be some
time before we can make use of it,
The city officials are trying to get
the difficulty adjusted with the
pump people but as yet have not
been able to get anything definite
Meantime we are depending for our
water supply upon the shallow wells
and in case of a dry period these are
liable to run our water supply
short. Besides during a hot dry
period there is always present the
added fire hazard and we cannot af-
ford to take chances with a fire and
short water supply. 1t is only when
we have abundant water on hand
that consumers are allowed to make
use thereof for lawns and gardens.
Patrons are warned to refrain from
making use of the city water for
either of these purposes. The city
officials will make all reasonable
haste to get the deep well pump into
action. Until that time patrons
should economize in their use OF the
