IRRIGATION By Louis Lessing Now I don't want to overdo this reporting business, but I took a short tour the other day that might be interesting to at least one of my readers. There are two Hals involved in this escapade, my son Hal and Hal Smith, so to avoid confusion I'll refer to them as Hal L. and Hal S. It seems that Hal S. who is sort of a Sunday prospector, about 8 years a ago noticed a spot in the North area that he felt held buried treasure, that is the kind that has to be dug out and refined. It's been on my mind ever since, so the recent spurt of good weather gave him spring fever and he decided now was the time to take a closer look at it along with the expertise from For-tun- Hal L. Up to this point I wasn't involved, but going out in that country in the middle of winter sounded fool hardy to me for I have spent a lot of time in that country with old Tommy Harris for those who remember him. We sank lots of "dry" holes. In the meantime, a couple of young, punk kids had informed Hal L. that they had been out in that country and it was real muddy but you could get through. Don't ever believe young, punk kids. Anyway, the two Hals decided to go out early Saturday morning, but unexpected delays brought the time to 2 p.m. Minutes before the take off, I was invited to go along. I think they figured they needed another good "pusher". Ignoring my better judgment, I decided to go along. Hal S. pulled up in a shiny brand new pickup which I am sure he didn't want to get dirty, so we loaded equipment into Hal L.'s Cherokee and we were off. Now SYSTEM. there's only three ways of getting into that country. No. 1 from the overpass at Pine Creek; No. 2, by Abe Boyles and up Choke Cherry, or No. 3, the long route by way of Ranch. Actually, Cunningham there's another route up T.V. Hill, but since Heber Gurr was stranded up there the other day, we didn't even consider that one. We decided No. 1 was the best.

Progress Report On New Water System The new pressurized water system for Beaver City will be ready for use on April 1st if the freezing temperatures have passed. all major supply By this week-enlines will be in place. The pipe installation crew were able to complete most of the longer lines in February as the frost came out of the ground. Some damage was caused by snow plows breaking off the rizer pipes near driveways and trucks driving into the wet pipe trenches. All of these have been repaired if they have been reported. Some of the Northeast and all of the Southeast part of the City was not completed before the water had to be turned from the system last fall. These sections will have to be flushed and cleaned before each user can be turned on. Please do not attempt to turn on the main valve to your connection until the crew can properly flush your system. If you turn it on you will get sand and debris in the valve assembly and it will have to be dismantled to completely clean it. The crew will leave the "tee" handle on the valve when It is ready for use. Keep track of the keys. If you lose it, you will have to buy a new one at the City office for $1.50. We plan to have all this cleaning completed by April 1st. There are a few connections that will have to be handled in a special installation and will be completed as soon as possible.
