Ace OF OYSTERS.

Oysters grow only during the sum-
mer and especially during the long,
warm summers at that, and are scarce
ly big enough for the mouth before
the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over bunch of shells to tell how
old an oyster is. A summer hump and
the winter sink come across the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then, by
looking at the sinks between the
humps it is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oysters age. Oysters
live to be 20 years old.

old WELLS DANGEROUS
Combination of Digging and Drill
ing Condemned by Experts of Ge
illogical Surveys.

Almost any community in which
wells have been drilled can boast of
number of combination dug and
drilled wells. The owners congrat-
ulate themselves on their wisdom in
utilizing an old dug well fifteen,
twenty, or thirty feet in depth, and
drilling through the bottom of this
to a good flow of deep water. The
cost of drilling that twenty or thirty
feet has been saved certainly ap
economy worth considering. AS a
matter of fact, says the experts of
the United States Geological survey,
this combined dug and drilled we'll
is a particularly dangerous type.
1t may readily breed malarial fever
or even typhoid fever, which is more
prevalent in the country than even
in the overcrowded cities, in spite
of the supposed pure water supply
of nearly all farming sections.
Such we'll is all the more danger
Gus because it is fancied to be safe.
Contamination Liable.
Although the water encountered
by the deep we'll may be perfectly
pure at the start, contamination may
take place almost Immediately by the
entrance, especially after rains, of
seepage water into the open well and
thence into the casing of the drilled
well. The remedies are obvious.
Either the casing should be carried
to the surface of the outside ground,
or at least above the highest level
ever reached by the water, or the
open well should be converted into
water-tight system by applying a
thick coating of cement over both
sides and bottom.
