ARTEsIAN WELLS.

Suggestions have been frequently maze
that a suitable source of supply for Bur-
lington might be found in artesian wells
and the committee have secured sufficient
information to show that this Is not a
feasible plan for the following reasons.
The deep or artesian wells already put
down in this vicinity all show to great
err or less degree the influence of the I'M
DERIVING limestone formation, although all
OF the wells are not directly In the lime
stone. The result is water too hard for
public supply, includrns the use or
steam boilers in which such water would
produce scale, and for laundry purposes
where an excessive amount of soap would
be required. The hardness of the water
from nearly all OF the wells of the imme-
date vicinity Is given in the table at the
ent of the report and this shows that the
hardness runs from two to eight times
that OF our present supply. This Is con-
sidered to he sufficient reason for reject
ing the artesian well idea. But further,
1t Is doubtful IL a sufficient quantity of
water could be obtained by this means as
many OF these wells yield but small
amount OF water

STARKSBORO SPRINGS.

These are situated in the town OF
Starksboro a short distance east of the
village and appear at the foot of grave
bank or terrace in rather small and
narrow valley. Whether they are true
springs, or simply seepage through the
gravel terrace from brook a short dis
lance above. the committee did not IN
vestigate, but the character of the water
shed indicated the latter. The brook above
has farm buildings and mill on It's
banks. These springs would not suppl,
the future demands of burlington with
out storage and no suitable sites for stor
age reservoirs are available.
