Transcription
Los Angel e a ~ May 15, 19*H> Hr. Valter R. Braoken: Mr. J. M. Anderson: An aendlng to Las Vegas with Mr. Anderson, two 4^"-dial, hydraulic pressure gauges, graduated by pounds to 6o lbs: One to be delivered to Mr. Braoken to be used by his office in gauging pressures of . the distribution sys tern; The other to be kept in a safe place in the Maintenance Office and used by Mr. Anderson, or under his direction, for taking pressure readings of the wells in the water producing die trict. X call to your attention the faot that these gauges are extremely delicate; a bad jar, by either dropping or jolting over rough roads, will throw them off. They must be handled with the utmost care, and X propose to have each of them sent to this office every sixty days to be tested* X think with these Instruments we oan obtain dependable pressure readings, both on our wells and the distribution system, and hope they will be handled with the utmost oars.
