Only the walls remain today of the

derstood that Mr.. Gnegy had $4,000

RESTRICTION Is LIFTED ON
The use OF CITY WATER
Reservoir Is Almost Filled to
Capacity and Test From New
Well is 100 Percent Pure
NO DANGER OF SHORTAGE

With the supply of city water in the
reservoir several feet above the fire
reserve level, and the announcement
from the State Health department
that the water from the new we'll is
absolutely 100 percent pure, all res
trictions on the use of water by citi-
zens have been removed, according to
the Mayor and Town Council.
By keeping the pumps going con-
tinually for the past several weeks it
was possible to raise more water in
the reservoir than was being used by
the city, and slowly the danger of a
water shortage diminished, until at
present the reservoir is practically
filled to its capacity Of 100000 gal
Ions.
A report on the test made of the
water taken from the new we'll
showed it to be 100 percent. DR.. JOS
eph P. Franklin, deputy state health
officer, in a telephone conversation
with Mayor Grover C. Stemple, said
the test showed the best analysis of
any which had been inspected in quite
long time.
Following the report, the water was
Immediately turned into the line. One
pump now operates three wells and is
getting more than enough water to
supply the towns needs, it was stated.
With this new we'll in operation, it
is not expected that Oakland will be
troubled with any shortage of water
for some time to come. In order to
prevent any further shortage, a new
we'll is being dug on the west slope of
the hill on the old Bradley farm, and
the possibilities of erecting second
reservoir are being discussed.
In lifting restrictions on the use of
water, it does not mean, however, that
any unnecessary wastage may take
place, H. P. Stuck, chairman of the
water committee, stated. Citizens
will still be under the town ordinance
prohibiting them from letting their
spiggots run all day and night to pre-
vent freezing of pipes, or other I'M
necessary wastage.
