THE WATER WE USE.

Ground water loses much organic
matter In percolating through the soil.
shallow well water Is generally 20 be
avoided Spring water h the very best.
The space about wells Ia usually con-
tamlnated with household refuse and
organic hlth OF an kinds.
The well with a water surface twenty
feet below ground may drain an ARA
OF eighty feet radius or 100 feet IN
diameter.
A depth Of ground water OF only a
foot over an acre OF sub-stratum would
furnish a seasons supply TO an ordl.
nary spring.
Very few farm-houses there are
without some pollutlng collection Of
organic matter within COMMUNICATING
distance OF such a well.
Asa rule no cases OF contagious dis
eases are ever communicated by ar
teslan well water. tho-gh this may be
heavily charged with mineral matter.
Water passing through soil may be-
come purer instead OF more contaml-
mated. because OF mechanical filtration,
action Of bacteria inhabltlng the upper
layers OF soil and by oxygenatlon.
Deep wells lafty feet or over pass
ing through impermeable stratum usu-
ally give very pure water. The lm-
puritles from the surface can not SET
through the clay and other impervioun
stratum.
Where shallow wells are unavoidable
the stone or brick should be laid IA
with cement from the water-ievel "a
the top Of the ground, and impurities
should BE- kept from about the well
within the draining area.
