Biggest Well
Yet is Struck

What has proven to be by far the
largest artesian well yet secured in
the Walla Whlla valley, was complet-
ed on the north side of the Blalock
fruit farm this morning, when drill
ers tapped subterranean flow,
which, coming through an S-inch pipe,
rises above the casing to a height of
80 inches. The water was secured at a
depth of 575 feet, approximately the
depth of other wells on the Blalock
farm. and is of about the same tenn
perature
Drillers have been at work on this
shaft for several months past, having
met w tn many reverses At one time
they lost their drill in the well, and
were unable to proceed for a consid-
cradle time, until the apparatus was
recovered. Weather conditions have
prevented work off and on during the
winter, and the success of the well,

it, Is the biggest thing yet accom-

short schedule because they think they
have a chance to win the pennant. If
they thought they did not have a
chance, they would be for the long
schedule.
