Show WATERSHUT. FROMCANAL Washout in the Salt Lake and Jordan Ditch in the Big Bend. There has been no water in the Salt Lake and Jordan canal for the past two days, owing to a large' washout that occurred at the big bend near Cannon's Can-non's farm. The flume at that point was nearly washed away and it was found neces- I sary to turn the water off at the lake. Many complaints have been received at headquarters from the farmers who depend upon the water for irrigation purposes. A force of men has been employed em-ployed repairing .the canal and the water will be turned In again today. A watchman is now stationed at this point on the canal to prevent a recurrence recur-rence of the washout. |
