SEVENTH WELL
 NOW COMPLETE
SAN 8ERNARpINo RANCH GETS ANOTHER FLOW or ARTEs-
 IAN WATER.

DOUGLAS. July 1S.-(Special)-
 At the San Bernardino ranch there was completed the seventh artesian well which has been bored by John H. Slaughter The well is said to be equal to the other wells on the ranch in amount of water which flows from it. These artesian wells are all flow ing nearly five hundred gallons of water each and sufficient to irrigate several hundred acres of land, which is yielding enormous crops of barley, wheat, alfalfa and vegetables of all kinds.
 The we'll just completed was bored to depth of five hundred feet, but the flow of water was encountered at depth of 340 feet. It was thought that by continuing the depth of the we'll a greater flow of water might be secured, but this expectation was not realized, as the flow at 340 feet was about what it is now.
 The rain which fell at the San Bernardino ranch Sunday was an un- usually heavy one.
