Those who were apprehended taking the city waters unlawfully, were hailed before the court and in addition to severe reprimands nd a fine, an add ed punishment was made with the installation of water meters, which will give the exact amount of water used by the law breakers. A new supply of meters has been ordered and the officers have sufficient on hand to care for those who would be greedy and deprive others of their just and lawful amount of water. Careful watching and conservation of the waters within the city is asked until the supply is increased, by the members of the city council. ances. The Salina Experimental an survey of this nature was made at Nephi recently by M. S. Winder, secretary of the bureau, and a condition somewhat alarming to the dairy interests was revealed. It the survey it was found that for every pound of butter bought in Nephi there were sold about three pounds of substitutes. Actual totals were 200 pounds of butter to 562 pounds of substitutes, the bureau secretary related. We suspect a similar condition throughout the state, said Mr. Win- , .
