GREENFIELD BENCH
ASKS MORE WATER
Commercial Club Committee to
Be Interested in Getting
Federal Aid.

A request from farmers on the Sec
ond Greenfield bench, within the Sun
river irrigation project, for assistance
in obtaining federal funds for the ex-
tension of lateral bitches to land now
unwatered will be brought before the
irrigation committee of the Great
Falls Commercial club July 8 BY
George 0. Sanford. project manager
Of the committee.
At meeting last week of interest
ed farmers it was decided to move at
once for the extension Of laterals and
the Commercial club will discuss means
of attracting the serious attention of
the federal government to the request.
The land proposed to be watered lies
to the south and east of Fairfield and
embraces about 5000 acres.
1t is not considered possible this
year to enlarge the watered area. but
it is the intention to get machinery in
motion that will bring about desired
construction. Beginning at Fairfield.
the project now waters $4,000 acres
between that city and Power and
5000 acres will be under the ditch
when the project is fully developed

Is MEN ARE PUT ON
IN G. N. SHOPS HERE
Announcement Understood to
Mean Normal Activities May
Be Resumed Soon.

A force of 25 mA will be put to
work Immediately in the car depart
ment of the Great Northern shops in
Great Falls. according to announce
ment from the office Of the shop super
intendent Saturday.
The unemployment Of the men
means the reopening to slight de-
gree of the shops, which have been
closed for several months. The men
are being reemployed in order Of their
seniority. About score were put on
the last fews days Of last week and
five more will be placed on the pay
rolls Immediately after the Fourth.
Reopening of the Great Northern
shops in Great Falls. even to a slight
degree. is believed to be forerunner
OF entire resumption of repair work
there. which in normal times employs
more than 400 men. For several
months 60 or 20 locomotives have
stood, with their fires drawn and their
windows boarded up, awaiting time
when freight demands on the Great
Northern would justify their being re-
turned to traffic.
Shops at several other points on the
Great Northern system were reopened
three weeks ago. and at that time it
was announced in St. Paul that the
Great Falls shops. among the last es-
tablished by the railroad, would be
among the last to be reopened after
the shut down, due to the falling off
in railroad business.

People of Great Falls Averaged
375 Gallons Apiece in "A

The people of Great Falls used an
average of seven barrels Of water for
each person last Monday, the day
when extravagant irrigation forced the
city to put limit on watering gar
dens and lawns. according to City En-
gineer NJ. L. Morris
The pumping equipment sent 9.OOo,-
600 gallons through the mains during
the "a hours. which on the basis of
$4,000 population. would provide every
person in Great Falls with 375 gallons.
or approximately seven barrels.
Saturdays steady drizzle Of rain. al
though serving to improve the city
water problem. brought additional wor-
ries to City Engineer NJ. L.. Morris.
A clogged sewer on Second alley south
from Park drive to Third street, dis
lance of two blocks, backed the water
to depth sufficient to flood the base
ments of virtually all the houses in
that area. More than an hours work
was necessary before the situation was
remedied.
The water problem, brought about
through the excessive use of water
for irrigation purposes. will be lessen
ed materially as result of the storm,
according to Mr.. Morris. Suspension
Of irrigation will provide an oppor-
tnnity to catch up in the supply.

SUN RIVER HIGHWAY

Twenty Miles of Road Worked
Over by Grey in the Last
Two Weeks.

Improvement work on the Sun River
highway, started two weeks ago under
the direction of a maintenance engi-
neer from the state highway commits
sion, is producing satisfactory results,
according to Ben G. johnson, chairman
of the board of county commissioners.
Twenty miles of the road have been
revoked by the crew and the final IA
miles to the Teton county line is re-
ceiving attention at the present time.
1t is the opinion of the county COM
missioners that the usual methods of
maintenance will bring the highway to
the desired standard Several weeks
ago the road was inspected by state
highway officials to determine wheth-
er the road needed the application of
special improvement methods. 1t was
recommended that ordinary methods
be used, with the understanding that
should unsatisfactory results follow.
special maintenance plans would be
put into operation. A recent inspec-
ton Of the road by the commissioners
has resulted in the conclusion that
special work is not needed.

Building Awaits Adjustment.
The statement issued by the Asso-
ciated Industries reads:
I'm spite Of the large unemployment
in Great Falls, union labor refuses to
work at wages as high and in many in
stances higher than paid in other cities
in the state.
'"The employer knows that the pres
ent industrial stagnation cannot be re-
lieved until wages are adjusted and
those who want to build are able to
do so at reasonable prices.
THE Associated Industries have an
nounced the adoption Of the wage scale
shown below in comparison with that
now being paid in other cities of the
state.
''The unions in Great Falls have
refused to work at the above offered
scale and are now on strike wherever

through the calling Of a strike by this
craft would be filled with permanent
employees. The company did not then,
nor has it since. told the union that
the statement should be interpreted
as meaning that the open shop was to
be launched, but many men have so
construed it, union officials say. The
