Artesian Water at Mayville.
REDUCED RAILROAD FARES
Everybody rejoices with Bro H
H Willburn, at Mayville, that he
has struck a flowing vein of good
water on his flour mill site. The
drill was only down 108 feet; a 4-
lb pressure from a six inch pipe
exists and the flow is 3000 gallons
an hour—72,000 per d a y ; what a
fine thing that would be for Moro.
This drill had only been at work
ten days, and the event is certainly
one of the most important in all
the history of Gilliam county as a
flow of artesian water will rightly
solve the problems of diversified
farming. This well cost Mr Will-
burn less than $1,500, and is worth
$100,000 to Mayville—he virtually
makes his neighbors a present of
$98,000. Think what a gift that is
and feel thankful for it.
