TENSEN LIKES DRAINAGE WELL Pete Tensen is enthusiastic over the success of the drainage well recently completed near his place. “This well is located Just below the ditch bank,” Mr. Tensen said, "on land which once raised alfalfa eight feet | tall, but which last year was little more than a swamp, it was so water logged. The water was in furrows, and a quarter mile from the site of the well the water level was only six inches 1 from the surface. "One week from the time we start- j ed to pump, the surface was dry and j the water table had dropped two feet over an area more than a quarter of a mile away, and it is still going down. You can tell the people that I am con vinced that wells are the solution of our drainage problem," he added. ‘MINE’S GOOD . .
