    Las Vegas - July 28, 1941 W 23-5-3 Mr. W. M. Jeffers, President, Omaha, Nebraska. Dear Sir; As a matter of Information I show below results of weir measurements taken yesterday of the production of our wells and springs. For purposes of comparison I also show the previous weir measure- ments taken May 28th. Please note Wells Nos 2 and 3 both showed a substantial increase and while No. 1 dropped off a little, this will pick up in the spring. We now have ample water for the balance of the summer.
