At the result of an advance of two' oents per thousand gallons demanded bythe Rogae River Water Co. the Senthern Pacifio railroad company has decided to furnish Its own water and the company now has a gang of men at work on a large .well west of the round house. . This well and reser voir when finished will be 80 feet sqoare and 40 feet deep. The railroad company's bill has been averaging about $200 per month and they have decided that it would be more eco nomical and more satisfactory to put in a plant of their own and thus be independent of the water company. This will also mean a decrease in the boBioess of the water company of something like $2400 for the year. These cool evenings remind as that we must have heating stoves.
