There are artesian wells and artesian
wells and the artesian wells in Brule
county are artesian wells. A two inch
hole in the ground down few hundred
feet and small stream bubbling over the
top Of the pipe bears about the same
comparison to one Of the artesian wells
in Brule county that a meadow rivdlet
does to mountain torrent. An artesian
we'll in Rrule' equity means something.
1t means SIX or eight inch hole heavily
cased from 1000 to 1000 feet, throwing
out anywhere from 10000 to 100000
barrels Of water every "a hours, and an
expense of $1,000 to $4,000. We are
now averaging one these wells every
two weeks.

meets at St. Augustine, Florida, Jan. 81
to "a. For the first time, PROBABLY. the
South Dakota Press ASSOCIATION will be
represented by a full delegation. At

press association of this state better
representation at future conventions.
This has been done, and the writer, as
national committeeman, is more than
pleased to state-after somewhat vol
luminous correspondence with delegates,
alternates and officers of the association
for the past month-that the delegation
is filled. All the regularly elected dele
gates promise to 20 but one n. C. Sho-
Der. His place will be taken by 7. w.
Bishop, appointed from the alternates.
The other delegates are H. L. Hopkins Of
Henry, G. NJ. Farley Of Madison, L. c..
Tayler OF Alexandria, j. A. Stanley Of
Hot Springs and j. E. Nipple OF Pierre.
Messrs Taylor and Farley will be accom-
panied by their wives. 1t will make a
nice party, and altogether a delegation
any press association may we'll be proud
of. In the delegation will be the presl-
dent, auditor Of the state. the ex-auditor
and the chief clerk Of the lower house of
the legislature, and the whole six Of the
delegates rank among the ablest news
paper men Of the state. II they do not
do the press association the represent

personally honor all drafts to make il
good.
