History of Deep Borings Dates

WASHINGTON. April 25.-Within the
walls OF an old convent at LilIfers in
the ancient province of Artois, France,
is well that has >zowed steadily since
II was bored in the year 1925, and this
is but one OF many flowing wells In
the province whose name has furnished
the term "artesian-" Nearly equal in
antiquity with the flowing wells OF
Artois are those OF Modena in northern
Italy. which were held Ia such repute
that two well borers' augers were made
the coat OF arms of the town. and the
first certain statement in literature
concerning the employment OF the
miners drill IN sinking wells is prob
ably that published in 1851 by Ber-
nardini Ramazzini, a professor of medi-
cine az Modena Indeed, this town
might well have disputed with Artois
the right 70 give name 70 flowing wells
That artestan waters were discovered
at such early dates may. however. be
attributed TO happy chances. The mod
ern history OF flowing wells began only
when geology was ready TO point out
the necessary disposition OF reck strata
and the art OF drilling was mastered.
In the early part of the last century
improved machinery for drilling was
invented, and much attention was de-
voted TO the subject.
FRANCE OFFERS PRIZE

wells was so great that for years the
royal and central society of agricul-
ture each year distribated medals and
prizes (the highest was 5000 francs9

TWO BIG INDUSTRIES
IN GRAVE QUESTION
Fate of Grazing in the National
Forest Reserves Is In
the Balance
Irrigationists Demand Exclusion
of Cattle and Sheep From
Watersheds
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO The CALL

WASHINGTON. April l1S--Correspond-
ence having most important bearing
on both grazing and irrigation interests
in the west has been made public BY
Secretary Wilson OF the department Of
agriculture. Questions relating TO the
proposed prohibition of grazing on
streams supplying water for irrigation
have occupied the attention of the de-
partments of agriculture and the inte-
rior for some weeks, and a co-opera-
tive investigation has been agreed
upon. with the hope that the problem
may be settled TO the satisfaction OF all
interests concerned. In giving out the
two letters bearing on the investigation
Secretary Wilson said:
a recent addi.-on TO the southern
division OF the Ionto nationei forest in
Arizona, made at the request OF the
United States reclamation service to
protect the watersheds of the Verde
and Salt rivers. and subsequent order
TO close the area to sheep and goat
grazing after April /, 1903, have
brought up questions which have

forts be made 10 restrict grazing by
sheep on the watersheds OF streams

protests TO the forest service By the
stockmen on the other, have given rise
10 a situation which can only be settled
by g very careful investigation, which
has been agreed upon by the secretary
of the interior and myself The inyes-
legations win be made with the one

officers of the reclamation service and
the forest service in cooperation, who
will meet the stockmen on the ground

tant bearing OF the problem on grazing
