Anot hiT visitor to Medford from
Pennsylvania looks with favor on the
artesian city water supply. That five
i?i six wells near the base of Hoxy Ann
will supply our city with an eight-inch
gravity stream of pure cold water. No
rodent with the germs of bubonic plague
ti m San Francisco nor other contnmi
nations can pollute the water. The ex
pense would be less than $100,000. The
waters in this section are most excel
lent. Let us make the trial then erect
our reservoir, and in the future we can
extend our water mains to Itig finite if
conditions demand it.
