ARTESlAN WELL RESOURCES.

During a recen address before a
body OF educators in Sphinx county,
Prof. K. c. Perisho, of the state uni
versity at Vermillion, gave some in
teresting information concerning the
artesian we'll resources of South Da-
kota. The first artesian we'll in what
now is the state of South Dakota was
sunk at old Fort Randall in 1880. This
we'll was put down by the government
and water was struck at a depth of
clio feet. Later in the same year two
wells were sunk at Yankton, both of
which were successful. In 1889 the
Milwaukee Railroad company had
drilled at Ashton what proved TO be
a famous artesian we'll. Water was
struck in this case at a depth of
about 900 feet.
Since that time a large number of
artesian wells have been drilled in all
parts af the state. Improved methods
of drilling have greatly reduced the
cost Of these wells. Artesian wells
which years ago cost several thou
sand dollars in, these modern days
can be drilled for a few hundred dol
lars. At the present time there are
in the aeighborhood of 1000 ~artesian
wells in South Dakota.
