Waste of Artesian Water.

Millions of gallons of artesian
waters are going TO waste every day
in Indiana. Over a million gallons a
day are wasted in a single county
The amount OF water thus drawn from
the underground reservoirs and I'M
utilized in Madison county alone is
sufficient to supply a city Of 10000 in
habitants. In only a few places is
this water put TO use. The farmers do
not seem to realize that a hydraulic
ram or a windmill placed on a flowing
well will raise large portion OF the
water to their houses on the hills
above. Immense volumes Of good
water are therefore suffered to waste
and in this way the head" OF height

which II rises above the surface has

that once yielded copious and strong
flows have ceased to flow entirely By
this means, also, the groBnd-vater

sioning Mr.. Houlihan at the time of
his death. which came very suddenly.
after a short Illness with pneumonia.
The monument is merely placed over
his grave as a token of the apprecia-
ton of the company for his services,
for he was one Of the most faithful
men the company ever had In Its EN-
ploy. The monument is of granite,
set on a base Of the same stone, and
carries the following inscription:
David Michael Houlihan, born
1894, died 1907. Erected by the Chic
opee Mfg. Co. in grateful recognition
Of 81 years of faithful service"
The action OF the company for
whom he worked so faithfully for so
many years is especially graceful and
indicative OF their appreciation of an
employe who does his duty. Such
thoughtfuiness does much to make
the relations Of the employer and en-
ploye closer and friendly, as they
