L. N. Leeper duy man at the city
pump station estimates that tho H'ck-
ory gravity water lino conveyed us
much as 180000 gallons of water to
Ardmore yesterday. Thero was pump- i
ed Into the city water towi;r about j
700000 gallons for the uses of the '
city and tho balance of tho water
Was allowed to flow Into the city
luku and M a result there bad been
one and one half Inch rise In the
lake.
This la the best turn story that
hu been given to the people of Ari-
more In many days. People In their
homes ieport that the water Is clear I
.n l wholesome and line and they are
lellghted. Beginning Saturduy mom-!
ng at it o'clock the city has been i
applied exclusively with mountain'
Mr. Leeper does not know exactly '
in gallons how much water came j
through the Hickory line Sunday but i
he estimates the flow at 1 250 gallons
to the minute. Parties who visited tho j
source of water supply yesterday n .
the mountains estimate that the City
line conveyed Just about one-third the
water that was carried by the creek.
If this esitmate la right. Hickory
creek Is carrying just about 54000u0
gallon! every 21 hours.
As long as the lino la doing the
work that it Is doing now there w 11
be no use of Installing a booster sta-
tion and the 'city will bo saved this
expense and also the expense of em-
plo; lug men to operate the station.
The repair work that has been done
on tiiu line has made It mure effect-
ive than when it was f rst installed.

Some off-hand estimates that have

approximately $i30ooo. such a dam
Would Impound water that would cove r
fi:l acres or admost six times as mucii
rea at ths city take covers such an
amount ot water would supply this
city for two or three years together
with the other lake which the city
owns and this water would make tho
people of Ardmore fro very secure.
Ardmore came so nearly being with-
out water th'i time thai much inter-
est is being manifested in the situa-
tion. There nre good business men
hero who state that $1000000 woud
not be too much for Ardmore to tiro
Jn getting a plentiful supply of water.
They would be willing to build a 1I-
hich water m:iin to Honey creek In
the Arbuckles north of Ardmore.
.As far ns present neccss'ties are
Concerned It seems that tho present
source of water is ample to take caro
of the neerls of the city and If the
mountain springs continue to flow as
much water ns they have been flow-
ing without cessation for the past 31
years it seems reasonable to depen 1
npon his supply for a city of 28900
to 30000 people.
