Irrigation for 1018
For the purpose of trying to make
the irrigation service more satisfac
tory the city will be divided Into two
districts so that each district will
get the full service of the plant upon
the ady It irrigates. I
The plan is to have the houses
which bear even numbers on the
streets irrigate only on Monday.
Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, and
the houses which bear odd numbers
the streets irrigate only on Tuesday.
Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
This plan will permit every house to
irrigate four days out of each week.
The purpose of the Water Com
pany In furnishing water for Irriga
tion is not to furnish all the water a
person can run through the hose in
the six irrigation hours every day,
but to furnish enough water to keep
the lawn in condition. To ise more
htan enough is a waste. We will
pump the usual amount of water and
hope to furnish It more satisfactorily.

"It may be that the Sumpter Val
