-2- even a few days in the farm. The current lack of water can undoubtedly be traced back to the low rainfall summer and autumn l942 and in view of the low snow winter l942-l943 one can conclude a significant further worsening of the conditions. The water pipe is closed in the present time from 4 pm to 6 o'clock. It is questionable whether this will result in savings, since the inhabitants will take care of a supply of water in the afternoon, which they will then pour out in the mornings when the water pipe is back in operation. It is clear that when the water pipe is closed and the gas pipe is filled and emptied, the water becomes cloudy. The cloudy view of the water then gives the population the reason to complain, because it cannot judge the nature of the waters differently. Evidently cloudy water for drinking and useful purposes is completely useless, even if it is bacteriologically free. By the above-mentioned adjustment of the blocking of the flow of water should be remedyed.
