Can IL BE the Wells

Scotland Citizen. Republican: 1t is
noted as a remarkable fact that the
Missouri river has been gradually di.
minishing in size for several years and
this season is much lower than ever
before. If the theory that the arte-
sian basin is supplied from water in
the mountains that would otherwise
flow down the Missouri the fact that
so many artesian wells have been
sunk during the rast few years may
account for the shortage. If so there
is no occasion for alarm as the river
has never been OF any commercial
value, and probably never can be
made so, and the water is doing much
better service when used for artesian
irrigation than when running in it's
natural course. Let the good work
OF sinking artesian wells continue re-

The proprietor of the ~electri, light
plant in Chamberlain has decided to
sink an artesian we'll for the purpose
of securing the power necessary for
running his plant. At present gaso-
line engines are used, but they do not
work satisfactorily or furnish suf-
ticient power. The new well will be
sunk in the bed of q creek in the
northern part of town, at an eleva-
ton considerably lower than the
famous a~rtesian we'll sunk to furnish
power for the roller mill, and which
has never been under control. The
mill well has a flow OF nearly 5000
gallons per minute-conceded to be
the greatest in the northwest, if not
in the co~untry-but owing to the
water escaping on the outside OF the
pipe the well is practically useless and
this vast amount of water is permit
ted &c 80 to waste. 1t is believed
that in the new we'll water will be
struck at a depth of about $40 feet,
and that the flow will fully equal If
not exceed that OF the famous mill
well. The work of sinking the we'll
will probably be completed within the
next thirty days.
