Regina, May 12. The daylight saving scheme as worked out in Re- gina last year was so successful that the eity council has decided to allow the by-law providing for the estab- ent of this measure to stand, and Regina will again be on "fast time" this year. The scheme, as Worked out in Regina last year, was a decided success, and while numer- ous complaints were raised against the adoption of it al the commence- ment of the year, no criticism was offered after it had been in opera- tion for a month or two. Regina is noted as a city of muni- cipal ownership. One of the: latest moves in this regard is the establish- ing of a municipally owned farm. This farm will comprise land used by the eity waterworks department for the securing of water for con-| sumption in the city. As Regina's | Water supply is derived from artes- | ian wells, considerable land is avail- able for the farming scheme, and it | is proposed to' raise sufficient oats | and hay to feed the horses used by | the street cleaning and other depart. | ments, and owned by the city, i An effort is being made to get the | Saskatchewan Breeders' Association | the Regina Butcher's Section of the!
