DAOUTH TEACHES TRUE VALUE OF WATER IN STATE Dry Season Resulting in Many Com:| plications and Disputes Over Priorities and Other Problems SHERIDAN, Wyo., Aug. 15.— “This season,” said State Engineer Frank Emerson on a recent visit here, “has brot to the attention of| many users of water thruout the state} the necessity of a more economic use,! and while in the past there has gen-| erally been plenty of water, there has been a hesitancy on the part of many to adopt plans which might result in more carefully guarding the use of water, because of its abundance, but now that the possibilities of drouth are apparent, there is a certain de-| mand for the installing of measur- ing devices to see that only. the amount of water allowed by law is used, and if possible to try cure that amount. “Priority for much unpleasantness at times for water superintendents, and __ often questions arise which are difficult to immediately determine, but thru the installation of cement or iron head- tes with positive measuring appar-| a recording the amount of water! passing thru, during a perilous sea- son, much of this difficulty will be overcome.” Another proposition which attracts much attention is in the privately- owned and company reservoirs, built to hold storage water, and which dur- ing the irrigation season still absorb} the water whether it is used or not, and measures will be installed to see| that during the irrigation season an over-supply of water is not taken in- to them. Mr. Emerson has but recently re- turned from Washington where he went to look into certain matters per- taining to the use of waters originat- ing in Wyoming, which is being di- verted into other states, and which principally affect the waters of the} Platte river in the southern part of the state and the Snake river of the western part. Sometime ago an in- junction was secured by Wyoming restraining water users in Colorado from diverting waters in this state for use in Colorado, and this is now pending in the United States supreme and se-!

Brown, in charge of the Denver navy! | recruiting station, announces that sev- eral attractions have been added to the navy band which comes here Au-) gust 21 so that it now carries acro-| bats, singers, a lecturer and a movie| |of about half an hour in length. The| | people of the West, thru the courtesy and generosity of the navy are to be giveh an opportunity for the first time to see a typical navy smoker. It is the custom in the navy for moving picture shows to be held board | ship about twice weekly, with a splen- did band accompaniment. In addi-| tion to these, smokers are held every} week or so, particularly when the/ | ship is far from a port where a pleas-! rights are the subjects/ ant liberty can be made. These smok- ers are turned over to the enter- tainment committee of the ship, and| ithe variety of talent produced is lit-| jtle short of marvelous. Former! |professiona] boxers, singers, ac-| robats, actors and athletes of aih! inds are to be found on every big |ship. Officers and men alike take} part in these shows and there is great) rivalry to see who can pull the best! | stunt. Every ship has its fighting cham-| | pion of various weights, and frequent-} |ly these men graduate into the fast) | professional class. Good athletes are} | given every encouragement to keep in perfect physical condition, and can nearly always get ashore for train- ing purposes. | The outdoor life led aboard ship, | the regular hours, well balanced} meals, careful medical supervision and regulated exercise all combine to de- velop the best of the physical man. And the navy experience is that the athlete is also the man whose brain functions most quickly; the man.who can carry the foot ball over the line! is the man to handle the gun’s crew and take charge of the fire room. aoe Watch for the Casper Supply wal announcement before storing coal. | 8-13-3t a | Experience in thousands of homes} court. In this case priority rights are held in Wyoming for the use of the! water for Wyoming lands. A similar proposition is being en-)| countered in the Jackson Hole dis-| trict where water is taken out of the state thru the Snake river, and d tributed from a reservoir built by the} TIC is the U. S. reclamation service out of} Jackson lake. Much of this water, | however, could not be brot to a point; for use in this state altho some of it} could, and on August 25 Mr. Emer- son is to meet Governor Carey in Jackson, when matter will be taken up with the ranchers of that section, and; a plan figured out whereby it may| be possible to establish a reservoir) at a point where by tunnelling thru the divide the water may be brot to) a point where it will be available for irrigation of lands which cannot now) be used for | agric| ‘ultural PAU ES TLS UMPIRE BILL GLEM 1S HEAD OF OWN LEAGUE YONKERS ted Press.)—“Bill” N.Y.

Y., with William Klem as president, is a live combination, with the best balltossers of Westchester | county playing Sunday afternoon} games. The eight managers repre- senting the teams in the circuit unani- mously elected William J. Klem, as their president. President Klem has eight umpires under him, who are re- sponsible solely to him in the same} fashion as he is to the head of the National League. He has taken a par- ticular interest in the umpire ques- tion and is rapidly developing his arbiters into big-league prospects. When it comes to deciding pro- tests, President Bill is also right on| the job. He has been called upon to} decide no less than eight protests this season—the disputes being entirely up to him for settlement—and in no} case has he failed to rule in an im-| partial and just manner.
