According to the analysis there is IL
grain bi-car Donate of iron in every gallon
of water from one of the springs. Two
of the springs near the east part of the
Enclosure are supposed to contain con-
siderable larger proportion of iron anG
to possess more decided tonic properties.
That the waters possess medicinal prop
critics there can be no question. Taken
internally, the more Immediate effect
of some, perhaps, all of them, is diuretic.
In kidney and rheumatic complaints
they have obtained considerable celeb
rity. And people are resorting to them
in considerable numbers and generally
report lavorably of their effects.
From ahe springs we Went to Mr..
Eddy's residence and were there supplied
with dinner. and feed for our horse.
Mr.. Eddy does not keep a public house
but accommodates all who visit the
springs as far as he can. Mrs EDDY
sets a good table and supplies the necess-
aries fol- the we'll and the unwell There
were several visitors at Mr.. Eddy's using
the water. Some left when we were
there. Others still remained. Visitors
come and go.
There is considerable demand for
the water to be sent away in jugs and
barrels, and this demand is filed on
orders The demand at the springs is
larger than the accommodations. The
reputation of the waters requires larger
and letter buildings at the springs,
and larger and better buildings ard
better accommodations for visitors. These
will not be supplied this year, but may
be next year.
We had the pleasure of seeing Mr. N,
Richtmeyer on the road opposite the
springs. He and we were gong in
opposite directions from there. our
course taking US to WALKERS PRAIRIE.
A very heavy rain coming up we found
shelter at Mr.. Ell. Husted's and also at
Mr.. A. Walkers and Mr.. w. Walkers.
We had the pleasure of meeting Mr.. w.
B. Castle on the road. The indications
of continued rain induced change
of our course from going farther south
to return to the Geneva road and re-
turn of horse and buggy to the owner.
Going past Woodwork Station without
stopping we found shelter from a very
heavy rain at Peter Devlin's Going on
from there our next call at dusk was at
A. Upson's, where we met him carrying
milk just from the cows to the house.
From Mr.. Upson's we went on to Nor
throp Jackson's and Mr.. Castles. Next
morning we went to Bristol station, Mr..
Jackson accompanying US there. From
the station we went to Kingman's Cor
ners, calling at Mr.. G. Williams on the
way. Mr.. Williams was ont with his
team ready to commence blowing, half
a mile west of Kibgman's Corners. Judg-
ing from Mr.. Williams house and barn
and farm, or rather from the little of
them which we saw, and the early period
after the rain he was starting the plow,
we should think he must be good
farmer.
A CHEESE FACTORY was established at
Kingman's Corners last spring by II. g.
Tourtellotte. Calling there we INQUIRED
if there are any objections to our seeing
the factory and making inquiries in
relation to it,and being informed by Mr..
Tourtellotte there was not, we can give
the following information.
Mr.. Tourtellotte is now receiving
the milk of 100 cows and is making $50
lbs. of cheese day for six days in the
week. The milk of Sunday is not brought
to the factory, the owners using it them
selves in making butter and otherwise
On Saturday morning-the morning we
were there--the quantity of milk
brought to the factory was 1900 pound s.
If from this 2SO lbs. of cheese is made
the yield is one pound to II noarlv
