Artesian Wells,

The Scientific American says the number
of artesian wells in the city of New York is
steadily increasing, something like forty
having been sunk during the past year.
Their depths range from 200 to 1000 feet,
and the flow ranges from ], 900 TO 1000 bar
rels day. These wells are used mainly by
brewers and other large manufacturers
who require large amount of water. Usu-
ally the wells are vertical In one instance
seven holes we're drilled in diff
ferent directions and at DIFF
ferent angles, only one being
vertical. The boring was carried to q depth
OF about 260 feet on the average, the longest
at an angle being 457 feet deep. Water was
struck In all the borings, and an abundant
supply has been obtained continuously. The
deepest we'll in the world is aaid to be that at
Sperenberg, near Berlin, which was exca.
waited IN an attempt to obtain supply Of
rock salt. This was reached at depth of
2SO feet, and the boring WAS continued to a
maximum depth Of 4l94 feet, the stratum of
salt being followed to depth of 1907 feet
without being pierced through, and the
boring then discontinued on account Of the
mechanical difficulties of tho operation.
