WATER IN RIVER FALLING
Flow Just Sufficient to Fill DEGREES of
Twin Falls and MinidOka Project.

Snake river is falling rapidly at this
time. The natural flow of the stream
now measures scarcely 5000 second
feet at the Minidoka dam, as against
1900 second-feet few weeks back.
There Is now just sufficient water
In the stream to fill the DEGREES Of the
Twin Falls and the Minidoka projects,
and by the first of next week the Twin
Falls North Side will be forced to
draw upon, stored water, small
amount of which they have in jackson
lake. This Is the season when the
river Is usually the highest, and the
extreme low mark at this time fore
casts shortage before the season
ends.
approximately 635 second-feet of
water Is being used on the South Side
MinidOka project, or under the pump
ing system at this time The demand
Is steadily increasing and the capacity
of the pumps, CTS feet, will ia all prob
ability be reached within the next
week.-Burley Bulletin.

Company Behind Idaho Merger
In Financial Position
WILL WORK TO BOLSTER UP
IDAHO PROPERTIES.
Wall Street Journal Likes Look
Of Corporations April Balance
Sheet.

All"s we'll with the Electric Bond &
Share company, according to an arti-
Gle which appeared in the public util-
tiles department of the Wall Street
Journal in its issue of June Is The
Wall street paper said its balance
sheet for April 80, indicated strong
financial position.
The Electric Bond & Share company
has recently become interested in the
southern Idaho electric power situa-
ton, and that company is known to be
behind the proposed merger of power
properties in this section. Its pros
perity is therefore taken as an indica-
tion that there is adequate financial
backing to complete the merger and
place the properties so amalgamated
on paying basis.
The Wall street paper said in part:
Electric Bond & Share company
continues to show good gains in earn
ings from the operating properties in
which 1t is interested through owner
ship Of securities and its balance sheet
of April 80, 1915, also indicated
strong financial position
Assets In Millions.
The balance sheet showed current
assets of $3,317 ,447, made up of ST.
724,91S cash, $1,561, ,172 notes and ac-
counts receivable and $31,357 accrued
interest receivable. Against this the
company had put $87,SO3 current !ia-
bilitis, composed of $123S accounts
payable and $S6,565 preferred divid-
ends accrued. Investment holdings
of the company, carried not at par but
at conservatively appraised valua-
ton, consisted of $6,526, 400 stocks and
$2,147,614 bonds and coupon notes,
while there was also held $3,956,25 of
syndicate holdings, underwritings and
advances to affiliated companies. The
syndicate liabilities totaled but $780,
$50 and other liabilities were made up
of $46,664 reserves, s3,201,222 profit
and loss surplus, with $6,000,00O COM
mon stock, all owned by the General
Electric company, and $5,771, 800 pre-
ferred stock. The surplus of April 30,
1915, compared with a profit and loss
surplus of $3,195,697 December 81,
1914.
Utah Power Cuts Earnings.
The four larger companies in which
Electric Bond & Share is interested,
American Power & Light company,
Carolina Power & Light company.
Utah Power & Light company and
American Gas & Electric are showing
good aggregate gains in gross, net and
surplus. Because of the large charges
which have been made against gross
revenue of Utah Power & Light sub
sidiaries under the reorganization and
reconstruction period. net earnings of
this company are not showing up as
we'll as the other corporations, which
have been placed in excellent operat-
ing condition and this brought down
the total net gain to some extent With
Utah Power & Light and subsidiaries
placed in the same operating effici-
ency as the other companies, much
longer controlled, it will be showing
as low an operating ratio as the other
Electric Bond & Share properties.
