to affect nearly all the wells in this
Vicinity. The Cole we'll has for years
bsfflsd all attempts to control the flow,
but has flowed on and ON for years,
flooding the whole adjacent territory,
and has ruined several ranches. The
we'll WAS originally only 80 feet deep,
and the flow of water was 60 strong that
all attempts to cap it down were futile,
and at last it was abandoned to its fate
and let run. The we'll now is about l5
feet across at the top, and almost
stopped flowing entirely. The two wells
that supply the city water works have
for the last three days been increasing
their flow quite materially.
