bAkoTA's ARrEsIAN WELLS.
An Underground Sea Of Vast Proper
ttons,


Col. L. s. Net.letou, while in ST.
Paul on his way to North Dakota to take
up the work OF investigating irrigation by
means OF artesian wells, which was COM
mcnced SO actively last spring, said :
From the investigation last spring 1t was
found that the largest artesian basin IN
the world exists in the Dakotas. You may
have some idea Of It's importance. when
! tell you that though there arc
over u thousand wells in the Denver, Colo
RADIO, artesian basin, the whole volume OF
water supplied by them Is not equal TO the
capacity Of the single well In the Dakota
basin At Woonsocket, S. u. That well
alone, II the waters arc stored, will irri-
gate from 1000 TO 1900 acres. The east
ern edge Of this artesian basin stops sud
denly at line between the James and lied
rivers. Northward II extends into Mani
toba, and the western limits has never
been defined. Profs. HAY and Colverof the
geological survey, who studied the subject
with me last spring, think tho source
OF supply must bu In the Rocky Noun
tains. In the Investigation which l am
about to undertake, We shall visit, inspect
and report on tho present artesian wclls'
studying their capacity, depth, general
characteristics Of rocky strata, aud the
feasibility OF their use for irrigation pur-
poses. In addition, we shall investigate
every possible means by which the under
ground water supply may DO brought to
the surface either on the Persian plan OF
deep cut canals or the various mechanical
powers.
