A mass meeting is called by
the Village Board for Wednes-

cuss the proposition of munich

convey sufficient amount of wa
ter. The earlier of the above men,
toned pipe comprised about 1-2 of
all the 4 inch pipe. This pipe APP
pears to be of an inferior quality
and banded for lower head than the
balance of the pipe
The pipe is laid too shallow in the
ground, and also carelessly, as
shown by the open joints. Rotting
of the slaves was detected in some
of the test holes dug.
The later pipe sections built at
each end of the above described
inch pipe, appears to be sound and
in good condition. About 60 test
holes were dug on the 4 inch pipe
and while numerous leaks were un-
covered int he earlier pipe, practi-
cally none were found in the last
laid pipe.
The several lines of inch pipe
were examined and found to be in
good condition as to soundness and
depth OF trench.
A large amount of l inch and 1-2
inch galvanized pipe is laid in the
village, together with a small guam
tity of 2 inch and l 1-2 inch galvan-
lied pipe. These lines were laid for
the purpose of supplying domestic
water only, and while several of the
lines are already too small to ade-
quately supply the water customers,
with tine added service of fire pro-
lection, lawn and town sprinkling
more of the small pipe will have to
be abandoned.
The fire hydrants are of Ludlow
Manufacture and appear to be in
good working condition. Several of
the hydrants are no located in the
proper place, but can be taken out
and placed elsewhere. These hy-
drants are connected to the main
with inch pipe, six inch pipe is
generally used in this connection,
though with a good pressure in the
main satisfactory service may be
expected with the present 4 inch
pipe.
Pittsburg, keystone water meters
were installed by the company so
that their limited water supply
would be used more economically
and serve more customers These
meters are of good quality and ap-
pear to be properly installed. The in
struments were bought out of the |
sinking fund which had been set !
aside for depreciation, etc and were |
therefore purchased directly with |
the consumers money. These me-
tiers would not have been necessary
If the company had had an adequate |
water supply and If the water lost |
in the system, through leakage had |
better been attended TO.

Village of Oakley
Pursuant to your request, / wish
to submit a report of the various
possible sources of water supply fol
the town of Oakley, of the cost OF
a new water system and an apprai.
sal of the system of the Oakley
Warm Springs Water Co. which now
serves the town.
Taking up the matter of water
sources, the following springs or
steams were measured, viz: - The
Warm Springs, now used in the town
water supply, contains 3S2 Miners
Inches; the two cold springs ming
ling with the hot water contain .S6
Miners In. and 103 Inches respec-
lively, making a total at the head
of the supply line of 5.71 Miners In
ches. approximately 1000 it, south
westerly from the hot springs. in
section 3S. is the Lower Carpenter
Spring, which on Mar. 1 ran 3 ga
Miners Inches. while 1000 It. fur
ther south is the Upper or larger
Carpenter Spring, flowing 9 Ia In
ches, making total OF 13 Miners
Inches available from the two
springs. The water in the Carpen-
ter Springs is slightly warm, being
about 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Critchfield Spring is located
about l IL miles east of the Hot
Springs, up in the foot hills, and is
flowing approximately 4 Miners In
ches.
Located some 6 miles southwest
of Oakley is the Simmons Spring
which measured 4 inches at this
time. The Hunters Spring is 3
miles northwest of Main and Center
st. and was flowing Is inches. At
the intake Of the Marion Supply
line, near the springs and approM-
mately miles westerly from Main
and Center st. a measurement
showed "a Miners Inches at this
time.
All the above described springs
are high enough for use in Oakley.
except the Hunter Spring, in eonnec-
ton with which pump and stand
pipe would have to be used. The
Hunter Spring is 73 ft. above Main
and Center St. and use of this water
will be discussed later.
An investigation of the present
water system was made and the ap-
original cost calculated as
we'll as the present day replacement
cost Of that part OF the works which
would be useful to the village in its
plan for an improved water plant.
The present worth, based on the re-
cost was arrived ct after
2 thorough examination of the var
ious parts of the system.
There were 25 test holes. dug. on
the inch pressure pipe and in ey-
cry case the >pipe was found sound
and at least 3 IT. in the ground. Sew
sn small leaks were uncovered. but
The leak was in the joint or collar
and easily repaired. The pipe is
closely wound with heavy wire and
he collars appear to have been Gre
lsoted or dipped in a preservative.
Owing to shortage of water sup

lbout 1-3 the distance to the reser-
Toir from Main Street. This condi-
ion is detrimental to the remainder !,

bhNKER-FARMER
COOPERATION
MANY Conferences and Practical
Measures Are Bettering
Farm Situation From
Ground Up.

The merits of intermediate AM
longtime agricultural credit nov
available, organization and co-opera
ton of producers for balanced pro
duction, and orderly marketing are
the chief topics of discussion at many
banker-farmer conferences being held
in various parts of the country witt
I the assistance of the American Bank
ers Association.
At a Texas Agricultural College
meeting representatives of agricul
tural and livestock associations
agreed that there is no such thing as
over-production, and hal every in
crease in production should raise the
standard of living higher. They saw
need for the organization of producers
for balanced production and orderly
marketing to relieve the stress in
agriculture, with credit provided OF
sufficient time to cover farm and
ranch turnover.
Legislation Not Wanted
Further legislative action was not
considered appropriate. In fact, there
was actual opposition to further gov
eminent action to assist in economic
adjustment, everyone there being in
complete accord that conditions were
propitious as far as existing institu-
tions were concerned to raise the
farmer and stockman to a proper
economic place in the business world.
The establishment of the Inter
-.
mediate Credit Bank was declared to
be the last step in the provision of
necessary agencies of credit, while
sufficient opportunity for cooperation
exists in present organizations.
The Agricultural Commission of the
American Bankers Association vas
described as a can of cooperation
between bankers and farmers and it's
work explained in bringing bankers
in more intimate touch with the
actual problems of the farm to de-
velop increased helpfulness.
Banker-farmer conferences have
been arranged by the Agricultural
Commission of the American Bankers
Association at the state agricultural
colleges in Indiana, Michigan, Ohio,
Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota, Mime
sofa, North Dakota, Montana, Kansas.
Oklahoma, Colorado, and Wyoming.
The Oregon Bankers Association is
engaged in the promotion of confer
ences in an effort to bring about
diversified agriculture.
Practical Aid by Banks
officials of a large Astoria, Oregon,
bank are taking an active part in
making farming a real business in
their community. A group of dairy
men wanted to borrow sufficient
money to buy a carload of purebred
Guernseys. There were practically
purebred Guernseys in the county.
These dairymen had little money so
they took the matter up with this
bank. A letter of credit for $4,000
was given to them Immediately on a
Joint note.
1t meant the starting of purebred
Guernsey herds in the county and
most of the dairymen who purchased
he animals have sold enough of the
,ffspring to pay for the original in
restment. One of the dairymen says,
Had the bank not been liberal in
making this loan, the original impor.
alton could not have been made and
he county would not have at this
ime the reputation it now has as one

let us consider some of the matters
which now disturb u.s.
The author then discusses isola-
ton, political aloofness, policy of
political independence, irreconcili-
ables, racial groups and solidarity,
diplomats and the like.
He declares: 1.-The league was in
| herently unavoidable, since, if it had
functioned as designed, it would have
created a superstate whose DEGREES
offending nations would have had
to obey or have war made upon
them by the other nations of the
Ieagua. >"
Again, but on the whole the
league has failed to meet the very
crises which we were told it would
master. Look at the Ruhr! That
was an ideal case for the league;
yet it did nothing. It could not do
members were in violent disagree
ment."
He then gives some interesting
figures to show how Europe has not
actually disarmed.
The American Constitution
From a standpoint Of civic Gov
eminent, the chapters devoted to
the constitution and common sense
are highly interesting. He points
out some vital dangers and tenden-
cies which now attack the con-
stitution.
You will have much food for
serious thought when you read
what Beverage has to say regard
ing the five to four vote of the
| Supreme Court in overthrowing an
act Of Congress.
Here is a real thought: 1.-THE
kind of men appointed to the Su-
preme Court determines the public
confidence in that tribunal, and the
| continuance of it's powers rests upon
the regard of the people, and upon
| that alone"

BRITT WOOD IS REAL
HIT AT LYRIC THIS WEEK

Britt Wood and his harmonica
are back at the Lyric.
That Indianapolis folks have not
forgotten him, was shown by the
applause he received on his entrance
Sunday night. This boy with the
funny face, the dancing feet and his
trusty mouth organ" is a favorite
here, and deservedly. He does his
stuff" to the old tunes like Ken
lucky Home, "Suwanee River" and
Nellie Gray" and everybody likes
them. His stories, if not all new
this season, are at least his own. He
is original. different and really
funny.
There is another act on the bill
that stands out from the other turns
gifts kind. This is the opening act,
Chappeue and Carlton. Their feats
of strength and balance, performed
both in the air and on the stage, are
different from the usual run, and
apparently more difficult.
Patrice and Sullivan please with a
neat musical act. They play the vio

aid of at least six people new to the
company, are presenting "Buddies, y
a comedy with music This is the
first time that Berkelrs company
has gone in for this sort of thing.
Waller has used some wise show
manship in directing and presenting
"Buddies" He engaged a quartet,
secured Hazel Wood as prima donna
and added Hamilton Christy to the
cast. This was wise.
"Buddies" is going to help make
more secure the position these play
ers hold in the city. The four old
favorites, of the company know how
far their vocal ability goes and wise
direction has been used by giving
the quartet and Miss Wood most of
the vocal work.
AS "Buddies" is being presented at
Englishs for the prices it is a bar
gain in entertainment. 1t runs I'M
usually smooth when one remembers
that this company is not a musical
comedy organization.
Miss Oliver is well cast because
she has a chance to be both sad and
happy. This woman knows how to
get into your heart. Waller in his
boob" love scenes has no trouble
in putting over the comedy. Larry
Sullivan and Hamilton Christy as
RUDE do a really fine piece of emo
tional work in the second act.
"Buddies" is made on a popular
and safe pattern and will draw, I'M
less I am all wrong, the biggest bust
ness that English's has ever had in
the summer And it will please
those who attend. Mary Holt is
splendid as Madame Benoit.
'Buddies" has been carefully and
we'll mounted from a scenic stand
point.
"Buddies" is an Oliver-Waller win
ner at Englishs this week.
