LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
THOSE Posts.

Qualities, Good and Bad.

constant Reader Speaks Of Their
Qualities, Good and Bad.
Editor Times: There is town ii
Wyoming called Painted Post. Il de-
rived its name from the fact that every
holder Of government grants had, &c.
cordina to law, post erected on his
section Oh lot, giving thereon q state
ment as to his rights Of possession.
We are reminded Of Painted Post, Wgo.,
BIZ the posts recently erected in this
city with the names of the street there
on. whoever invented these posts Is
certainly a genius worthy Of the man
who discovered the fact that crooked
telephone pole was more beautiful than
4 straight one. He should have our
everlasting gratitude, as he has shown
extraordinary ingenuity in producing
post that will not warp o. fali down
upon the unexpecting public. Ii y q
most that any member Of the city I'M
movement association can well BE proud
| III.
While it would seem To some that
the posts were larger than actually nee
essarg to carry the street signs, the
writer believes that had they been ten
inches III diameter instead Of nine inches
/ they would have served the purpose
still better.
/ We assume that the black paint which
has been used il simply q filler and
\ that later on the posts will be treated
with preparation that will bring ont
the grain of the wood, thereby making
them nos only d useful but beautiful
post.
ii person who Il iii search Of tbs
name If street need not make int
aniries of one wliam tie may meet. H
/ many instances he will rap his heat
against one 0f two signs, causing han
to raise his gaze aloft and circulate
sort of an automatic reminder that b
Iis ii the vicinity III some street, any
how.
We old residents could have got alon;
4omeway without the signs, al we ar
not particularly interested IN only th
part Of the city we live In, but Til

isted. but We had not that artistic sens
/ to know what to suggest.

|. yentive genius to rise to the situatio
! arid fill this long felt want and plae
those beautiful posts on every stree

10 prevent other cities and town
from copying our posts we would sug
gest that the design be copyrighted
we have been looking for new indui
tries to give the city an impetus. "
can now BY iudicious advertising throng

Underground Flow
In MesiIIa Valley

The department OF soils OF the New

cooperating for several months with
Prof, c, ), Slichter Of the u. 4. geo
logical survey, In a study OF tho
movement OF the underground water
In the Mcsilla valley.
a line OF driven wells. one half
mile apart, vas put In from tnc east
edge OF the valley proper to thu river,
and another line, two and q half miles
long, was placed north TO south,
These wells consist OF one and one.
half of two inch pipe with Cooke
straincrs AT the bottom The exact
level of the tops OF all of these wells
was obtained with an engineers level.
The system was completed just before
the high water In the river of last
October and frequent measurements
OF the depth to water In the wells
have been made since that time.
The results show that the surface
Of the water has a grade of about 40
feet per mile in the north TO south
wells, and this grade has remained
quite constant. On October /, the
water was lowest in the well at the
east end of the east to west line and
rose from there to the well a mile dis
tant giving a difference In level OF one
foot; then fell to the well about the
the middle Of the valley. fail one half
foot, and was fairly level from there
to within a half mile Of the river.
Between this point and the river,
there was a rise OF about one foot.
Since October l, there was a rise
where the water was lowest and a
fall where it was highest in the wells
between the east side and the middle
of the valley until it was nearly level
by the first Of February. The water
has continued to rise on the side next
to the river until by March 25th. 1t
was four feet higherin the well nextto
the river than on Oct. /. One.half
nile from the river 1t las risen two
feet; and n mile away It has risen
a foot. Since the water was turned
into the bitches, about the first OF
February. and some irrigating begun.
there has been a slight rise in all the
wells.
The rate at which the water moves
across the valley from the river is
very slow as is shown by the fact
that 1t took from the first OF October
until the first of February for the
flow in the river to affect the height
Of the ground water at a distance of
n mile to the east.
The results thus far obtained indi-
cate that the water table has q fair
~ constant grade from north to south:
