past week and if hot weather con­
tinues it m ay remain so. The
pump is operated 24 hours per
day and is throwing 46 gallons
per minute. Comparatively little

as gravity is being used and low»

much from running to the oppo­

Care in w atering lawns is neces­

restrict w atering to certain hours

if each householder restricts his
