' The Dlan 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 on the streets Irrigate only on Tues day. 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 use more than enough is a waste. We will pump the usual amount of water and hope to furnish it more satisfactorily. Salem Water Light & Tower Co. MJ.B.Coffee Why?
