Money to loan at a low rate of interest
on real estate. j. A. Rapley. g.
Deming graphic. (Deming, N.M.) 1903-1948, 1906-06-22
A Complete Success.

On Thursday morning in response to
a cordial invitation by Mr. Ralph c.
Ely, who also n ade ample carIia e
provisions, a number Of Deming's bus
ness men rode out to the Ely farm, to
witness and examine the workings of
not an artesian WE'LL but certainly the
next thing to it, in the way Of an irri-
eating plant. We found a drilled well
eight inches in diameter, one hundred
and fifty feet in depth, from which was
flowing about 10000 gallons of water
per hour by the compressed air method,
with a pressure of forty three pounds
to the inch. Ia this well the casing was
perforated to catch any veins of water
that might be struck. in sinking, and
there is a stand of one hundred and
twenty feet of water in the pipe, which
is lowered only ten feet by pumping.
1t is believed by experts who have
examined this we'll that il sufficient
power was applied to raise twice the
amount of water it would have no ex-
hausting effect; that there is sufficient
in the ground to I'LL the discharge pipe
to its uttermost capacity. TIE air COM
pressor at this plant is sufficient for
three wells and it is Mr.. Ely's intention
to soon have them all in operation; we
believe the second one is to begin work
to-day.
The cost of running this plant is not
excessive, and hOmesteaders in this
vicinity can, if there is no cheaper way,
raise water by the compressed air
method and raise crops at a profit.
Mr. Ely has spent money freely in
his effocts to make farming in this arid
region a success He studied the In
gersol-Rand process carefully, came to
the conclusion it was practical, and IN.
vested in it.
The plant, as We saw it in operation
yesterday was convincing proof that
Mr.. Ely had come nearer solving the
irrigation problem in this vicinity than
any who have been wrestling with this
question here FOR the past twenty five
wears.
