At the Kiwanls meeting Mniulny. F,
On account of the fterloun InfoHtn-

told it would serve a city of 26.000
' people, but does not and some uro

This 1r absolutely the best time to
muko a thorough clean-up, because
all Infection can be readily detected
before all the leaves tako their na
tural fall browning.
At this time limbs that are Infect
ed with blight show a distinct brown
ing of the leaves, which will not .be so
noticeable In a few days lime, espec
ially if we have a little frost. As fust
as the pears are off the trees, grow
ers should follow up with blight cut
ters and be very careful that all in
fections are taken out. KIIhIU that
has slowed up before picking has
started to run again at this time, and
trees can be ruined In a short time
if not looked after.
It Is imperative that this work be
done at once and . inspectors will
serve ten day notice on all growers
who do not start to work at once.
This work must be done this fall In
order to give time for the Inspectors
to fullow up the work, to see tha,t it
is done thoroughly. .

ent system, which said "the present
3 system will supply four million gul
Ions a dny and will be sufficient to
i supply a city of 26.000 with a per
vt; capita use of 100 gallons per day."
f Mr. Dlllard said In part:
4 People of Medford are today using
an average of 430 gallons per capita
f, or more than two and a. half times
i( what the per capita consumption was
if estimated when installed.
"The consumption today in Med-
5 ford Is about 41 gallons per capita
I per day for commercial use and 7 4
f gallons for domestla use. leaving 315
? gallons per capita per day for lawns,
garden and other uses. Figuring the
i average lot as 40x160 fnet, at least
two-thirds of which is lawn and
home garden, there 1r then 270 acres
Irrigated in the city on which the use
sj. is 315 gallons per capita per day. This
makes a use of about one acre foot
) per acre per summer months, which
Is not extraordinary ns the nverage
for alfalfa and meadow use in the
s country Is six-tenths acre foot per
j summer month.
"The, Increase of users in the city
has been constant, much greater In
proportion the lust three years. In
1914 there were 2100 users, In 1922
is there were 2200, In in 11125 It had in-
creased to 2500, the greatest Increase
: being this year. This shows the in -
creasing population. '
I "It has been suggested to put on
meters in this city. This would cost
1 $50,000 and would Increase the cost of
water on present consumption more
4 than it will cost water users for the
increased rates to pay for the new
Si system proposed. It has cost 118.000
" the past 18 months to repair one-third
1? of the collars of the present system.
'. nnd a conservative estimate is that
? it will C0Rt 2 5.000 per year to keep It
' in repair nnd replace collars the next
' three years. At the end of that time
work of replacing the worn out
V wooden pipe will have to begin and
on a basis of 10 yeurH at an expense
of $30,000 a year, or $300,000 in 10
years, in addition to the $76,000 spent
' for repairs in three years previous to
i this, would make $375,000. When
completed there would only be a re
lV paired plant und only 30 per cent of
M the supply the hew1 plant would fur
. .-' nlsh. This would mean the continued
1 shortage and the present unsatlsfao
:s tory quality of water.
"The new system on a basis of 500
:i gallons per capita per day an Ill
s' crease of 70 gallons per person over
present supply would supply an
abundance of water for a tfity of 20.-
000 people. The minimum supply of
the pipe proposed would be 15 and
4-10 second feet, and the maximum
.4 17 . second feet.
f ply Is 6 second feot. The water right
' of the city to Big Butte springs. Is far
' in excess of the amount proposed and
w is sufficient for all demands of a city
.f much larger than 40,000.
1 "To pay for the new plant nnd the
present debt of the present plant pro-'
'I vision has been made In the propo-
'i sltion to positively pay all bonds and
interest before 1956. and before the
I life of the proposed plant has served
f Its purpose and leave an accumula-,
lion for betterments. This can be done
I on basis of present receipts and' an
incrense of 50 consumers per yenr.
"The payment can be made either
i by Increasing the present rale 60 per
cent with no tax of increase wnter
-j rates one-fourth and a small tax levy,
' either of which would still leave the
P rate at Medford lower than any other
city In the slate, according to wnter
' used, excepting Ashland, but not vven
excepting Portland.
I "The bond issue submitted Includos
I $100,000 to put In new mnins and in-
f crease others which Is necessary to
5 carry the Increased wnter supply and
relieve the low pressure In the city
during the period Irrigation Is nllow-
4 ' cd."

wonderful water nnd were of the op
inion that to supply Medford with
such pure, cold spring water would be
well .worth the cost.
