FEYsesian Wells

Six Inch Flow esfHck at Depth
OF Fifty Feet on the johnson
Ranch.

Artesian water has been struck two
miles and a half northwest Of MidYale
By c. R. Johnson. sho owns a ranch in
that section Of the upper country. The
veil is but fifty feet deep and six in
ches in diameter and was driven for ez-
perimeutal purposes TIE eow Of va,

ground to q height Of several feet above
the top Of the well.
some time agoa company vas organ
.ized, says the weiser sigual for the pur-
pose Of prospecting for artesian water.
but, after several wells had been driven
the work was abandoned and the wosk
given mp in despair. Mr.. johnson vas
confident that such flow could be
found and took up the work above hiz
ranch which is located on Dry creek.
He had been working but few days and
had gained depth Of 80 feet when the
water struck and tile machinery had to
be removed. There is sufficient water
flowing from the well to irrigate HE en-
tire farm besides other land in the i'm
mediate vicinity.
The finding Of artesian water in this
section Of the country means much to
tn sc who are compelled to rely Oh irri-
CATION. The entire section Of the coun-
try near where this well was sunk is ir-
rigated at considerable cost to the ranch
ers. The boring Of webs along Dry
Creek viii eliminate tfiis extra cost be
cause that now water is found there vii
lie no trouble in getting on inexhausiibl,

The fact that Mr johnson had cour
age to 20 ahead and drill in face of tbs
fact that all experiments had failed an,
everyone else had given up the wori
speaks well Of him. 1t means man,

shows that artesian wells can also b

Mixed Metaphor.

The late Mr.. Richie when chancel-
lor Of the exchequer once asserted that
"the question of moisture in tobacco
is a thorny subject and has long been
bone Of contention" His immediate
successor in Office, Austen Chamber
lain, remarked at the Liberal Union
clubs dinner that the harvest which
the present government had sown was
already coming home to roost.
Sir William Hart-Dyke has two con-
spicuous "howlers" to his credit-the
description of James Lowther as hav-
ing gone to the very top of the tree
and landed big fish and the comfort
ing assurance that his government had
got rid of the barbed wire entangle-
ments and was now in smooth water.
Among other political examples Of mix
ed metaphor are the prediction as
cribed to labor member that if we
give the house of lords rope enough
they will soon fill up the cup of their
iniquity and an Irish members com
plant that certain government de-
partment is iron bound in red tape

A Fable,

Once Upon a Time there was a
Young Man who met Two Nice Girls,
who We're Constantly Together. Now,
he was an Astute Young Man. and he
desired to say Something Pretty and
Agreeable to the Ladies, but he knew
that If he paid Compliment to One
of them, No Matter which, the Other
would be Hurt.
SO he Thought Rapidly for mo-
ment, and then he said:
"Ah, know Why you Two Girls are
Always TogetherH'
"Why?' asked the Two Girls.
Because Everybody says that A
Handsome Girl Always Chooses q
Homely One as Companion, So That
Her Beauty may be Enhanced by the
Contrast
After Such a Remark, either Boil
Girls would be Angry with him or De

And what Do you think Happened?

TwOFINE BANK STATEMENTS
Denison Banks Make Their Usual Splendid

In this issue we publish the state
ments of the First National Bank and
the Crawford County State Bank.
1t is not SO very long ago when
these banks "pointed with pride"
when their totals reached the half mill
lion mark. Now they hover between
two thirds and thre -fourths uf a mill
lion at every statement. The de-
posits are considerably more than a
million showing not only the prosper
ity and thrift of the people but the
confidence they have in our banking
institutions. During the panic of a
year ago the banks of Denison were
among the very few that continued
business just as if nothing was hap
pening in the financial world. We
would ask our readers to give the
statements their inspection for it is
we'll to reassure oneself from time
TO time as to the reliability ano
strength of these institutions upor
which the prosperity of the commu.
nifty so largely depends.
