WATER IS NEEDED
FOR INDUSTRIES,
BARRON BELIEVES
Manufacturers Want Sup
ply Enough to Waste;
Bond Issue for Dam is
Being Considered.

Until our water problem is satisfac-
torily settled, and the source. of an
adequate supply secured for the city
beyond all future doubt, we cannot
hope to attract many additional manu-
featuring plants TO Ardmore, remark
&c James Barron, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce yesterday while
discussing the possible future Of the
city, and its chances Of becoming the
manufacturing center of southern OR
,ahoma.
Mr. Barron expressed the opinion
that the time is here when the tax
payers Of the city should take action
and settle this question for all time.
He is in favor of a bond issue for
this purpose, and suggests that until
a dam is constructed at Hickory creeK
Ardmore will always have Il water
problem.
No city ever has an adequate wate.
supply until it has water TO waste
continued Mr.. Barron, "and when ma
ufacturers are assured Of all the wa
ter required to operate their business.
much of the difficulty in securing new
industries has been removed
The question of voting on a bond
issue for this specific purpose is now
being considered by city officials. hut
no definite action has been taken up
TO this time. Water is flowing through
the pipe line from Hickory creek 10
the city lake. but not as much as is
consumed by the city daily. Hickory
creek has been running very little
water for the past four months, but
fall and winter rains will soon raise ii
10 such an extent that the pipe line
will be running full, which rate II
will furnish approximately 1,5OO.OOC
gallons daily. or about half million
gallons more than the city consume'
daily.

WASHINGTON.-Lack OF buying

the present stagnant industrial ana

Agriculture Henry Wallace
The farmer is today receiving for
his principal products a lower level
OF prices than he received in 1913 ana
3sl4. before the war
But he is paying, on an average
15s per cent more for the Things ne
has to buy than he paid in 1913.
The result is that in purchasing
power the dollar the farmer reserves
today is. compared 10 the dollar he re-
ceivcd in 1918, worth just Ss cents
lie must spend $3.50 to get the same
he got for 81 before the war.
And he has no more dollars with

That is the situation in a nutshell

ernooD
Commissioner Frank WITCH. in
charge of the department of streets

sduced three ordinances, one pro-
vidfng for laying asphaltic concrete
pavement. one for resgrfacing
Job. and one for patching old as
phalt pavement, which were con
sidered by unanimous vote and VIII
probably be adopted next week.
The combined cost OF the pro-
posed improvements was estimated
at ISL ,se5.ss by Wallace Treiehler,
city engineer.
The biggest project IS hat OF
laying asphaltic concrete paving on
Nineteenth and Twentieth avenues
from Twenty-forrth 70 Twenty
seventh street, and en- Twenty astn
street from Eighteenth TO Tween
tteth avenue. The estimated cost
of this work is s39. 1915.
A second ordinance provides for
the resurfacing OF Twentieth street
from Ninth to Twelfth avenue The
old brick paving is to be resurfac-
ed with asphaltic concrete. The
estimated cost Is s16-9ls.6s.
The third, providing fer the
paching OF the old asphalt paving
on Nineteenth street from Seventh
