Hales, 21 W. 1st South, Kaysville. of townspeople City Councilman at their meeting Monday night were visited by a group of property owners on North Terrace Drive with a petition concerning the problem of water pressure in that area and asking that immediate steps be taken to improve the situation. Councilman explained to the townspeople that there is some $65,000 in this years budget, approved prior to January 1, Clearfield to help correct water pressure and supply problems. Included in this amount was $.',0,000 for well drilling and pumps. The installing contract for the well drilling has been awarded Roscoe Moss Company and that firm has been notified to proceed with the drilling of the well. Clearfield City has signed a contract with Sunset City and the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District to install a million and a half gallon water storage reservoir on Hill Field property immediately east of 300 North in Clearfield. There has been approximately $12,000 allocated for that purpose. Plans and specifications have been made for a pressure regulator to be installed in the line that comes off Weber Basin on 300 North. These plans will all correct the water pressure and storage problem in the city. As Glen Willardsen, city manager, puts it, We wont be able to get the well drilled or the storage tank completed this summer. Therefore, were asking the cooperation of water users in the community. W would appreciate if they MARY'S in would water outdoors after 9 p.m. or early in the morning. The greatest time of problem is from 4 to 7 p.m. There is plenty of water, actually, but the pressure is low because of the storage problem. No regulation of water use is planned just the cooperation of the users is asked. In reference to drilling of the well, the council adopted a resolution accepting the low bid of Roscoe Moss Company in the amount of $23,41.') and asking the firm to proceed with the drilling of the well. Indications were that the well will be drilled within 120 days from the date of signing of the contract. Templeton and Linke, consulting engineers, have been asked to prepare the contract in order to proceed with immediate drilling. In other business, the council heard a request for commercial soning from the operators of the present Homers Market. The council approved their request for rezoning and called for a public hearing to be held August 8 at 8 p.m. at the city hall. The property in question is on 430 South and Highway 91. There is presently zoned a strip 140 off Highway 91 and 2oo feet off 430 South, about 2.403 acres. The new zoning would go north from 450 South 103 further than present to give a depth of 305 feet to the corner and square the corner off, giving an additional 1.050 acres, making the total area nearly four acres. At the present time, two acres are zoned commercial the water use other is zoned for multiple dwellings. The people seeking intend building a the 28,000 foot building to include a super market, hardware store, soft goods or variety line and drug line.

Of the 21 different types of mosquitoes found in Utah, Mr. Swapp said there are about eight in Davis County. Once, about five years ago, workers found some of the malaria carrying Anopholes on Bartons Pond in Kaysville, but none of this type has been found recently. Each mosquito type has its own identifying marks and typical characteristics. District has been working hard since the snow melted to keep the mosquitoe controlled. -- July 4 July July July July July July 3 6 7 8 9 10 Fire calls The Clearfield Clearfield Fire Department made a call to the Pullam Trailer Court Friday night when some burning garbage enveloped some Another fire call By Mary Bowring we were. So, we have come into possession of a modern tent, with a pole (so we wont have to chop any trees down along the way) and a floor, some sleeping bags, air mattresses, lanterns, stoves, plastic ditches, foam rubber pillows, picnic baskets, cooking utensils, refrigerator. We think that, by careful planning, well be able to squeeze the children into the car, too. (What we need ia a running boatdi) This is the sort of trip we used to take when I was a child. In those older days, I tell the children, there werent motels, but each little town along the way had a camp grounds that welcomed strangers. Their Dad, too, tells of wonderful outdoor trips into Canada and the beautiful woods of Upper Michigan and that said. Another area where mosquitoes are still breeding are in old wells. The State Engineers office will cooperate to plug these wells for anyone desiring help, Mr. Swapp pointed out that people, generally, are better informed each year on water management which playa a great role in mosquito control. Whatever the accumulated reasons, Davia resident are enjoying the comparatively quito free summer! their efforts.

They operate a 140 acre farm, milk 25 cows and raise mainly barley, wheat and grass for the cows. As is common with most farmers in the Orebro area, they have about 18 acres of woodland, from which they cut wood in the winter. Moct of tha farmers cut wood for part of their income. How would you like to chop wood for a living? As for me, I know better ways of doing it. Besides cutting wood, Ive been helping milk my host father's 25 cows. Mr. Johansson had the mumps for 10 days and his hired man who milked the cows was sick at the same time so Mrs. Johansson and I did the milking. in Sweden Speaking of cows there are three main breeds. Here ful spring j ' in central Sweden they hava the small Swedish red and white cow which are most suitable to thia area because the farms are generally smaller here and don't have as much feed as other areas. In southern Sweden where there is an abundance of feed and a warmer climate, a large black, and white cow similar to our Holstein la the main breed. It is a high milk producer. In northern Sweden where I am going next to my third host family, they raise white polled cows which can withstand the cold winters and the mountain ranges. It doesn't produce much milk but the test butter-fis between 4 and 4.5 to 4 for compared to 3 the other breeds. It Is interesting ta learn that from the last of September to April the fanners keep their milk cows ami other cattle in barns so they will be out of the cold weather; A dairy I visited here in Orebro takes care of most of the milk in the county. More than half is used for butter manufacture and a third for liquid milk and cream. From this extensive butter production there is a substantial surplus of skiramilk which is at , on Page 11.)

So, the Kaysville City Marshal, Lyle Larkins, is shown here, looking over one of the bikes with Dwight Krebs, 14, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Phillip Krebs, to determine its owner. Unless the bikes, which have accumulated during the past year, are claimed within the next two weeks, they will ba auctioned off. Hopeful claimants may collect lost property by identifying them at the fire station, after contacting either Marshal Larkins or Sam Bloxhara, Kaysville City's work superintendent. their MEANDERINGS We a potential breeding spot for thousands of mosquitoes. Mr. Warren pointed out that old tires lying around with water from rain or irrigation stand ing inside could provide breed ing grounds for literally millions of the pests. Individuals must make certain that they dont maintain such breeders for the balance of the summer. Another factor which has helped with this control work is that the gun clubs have cooperated more fully this year than ever before. One club has drained the water and will keep it drained until October. Although the workers do, on occasions, spray where the at the public sees them poese grounds, church or civic gatherings, for instance this sort of spraying actually does very little good except to provide momentary relisf. Tha major control work ia dona in preventing the hatching of the larvae. Around the edges of res a r v o i r a (moaquitoea dont breed in water more then about 18 inches deep) along the lake shore these are the spots where the district w o r k a r a concentrate Both their Dad and I believe we are traveling quite Bumptiously with modern stoves and lanterns that light the entire outdoors. We dont remember anything better than makeshift stoves on the ground that always seemed to cook better in the middle of the day and that seemed to take forever to get hot enough to heat water. There were no sleeping bags or air mattresses on the trips we used to take. The old folks had army cots and I remember that we had a canyon cot. However, it never went up with a simple twist of the wrist Rather, Dad and his crony used to use some mighty pointed language in getting it into place. It seemed that the best way was to stand to one side and throw it at a tree while cursing loudly. Then, it would by magic become a bed with springs I dont know what became of the canyon cot Mother says it must have been thrown away during the BIG MOVE from the big house to a smaller one but she knows how comfortable we would bi if we had it for our trip.
