Huge Spring.

Sioux Falls, S d., June 1S.-Special
to The News The town of Messing
ton Springs is to have what will be
the most unique municipal waterworks
system in the state. 1t will be unique
in that the water for the system will
be furnished by huge natural spring,
the water from which so far as purity
is concerned cannot be eXcelled in the
world, The spring and the ground
surrounding it has been purchased by
the town at a cost of $3.50, The
water will flow directly from the
spring into the mains. Water for fire
protection will be pumped from the
spring into large concrete reservoir,
which will be constructed on hill
above the spring, the elevation giving
the necessary pressure.
