Taa6ega, August 1s.-tspecial)-Fo
years past the city of Talladega has been
hamrered in its growth by a persistent
belief on the part of some OF its citizens
and visitors that the water furnished by
the city would cause bowel troubles and
sickness. The hydrant water is procured
from an immense spring situated in the
very heart of the town. quite like Hunts
Vile and puscumbia, and many persons
were of the opinion that the seepage from
the city found its way into the water.
Moved by this state OF affairs, few
public spirited citizens made mp money
among themselves to dig a well. hoping
to find pure artesan water.
For almost a year efforts have been
continued in the direction OF boring for
artesian water. Something has again and
again gone wrong with the machinery or
the laborers, but last week a depth OF
nearly 500 feet was reached, and a bold,
pure clear, cold stream of life-giving
water gushed to the surface. and glad
dened the hearts of every Talladegian.
A So-hour test of the well showed the
flow to be $40 gallons per minute, which
is twice the quantity now used by the
water company of the city.
The following extract from a letter of
p. e. Moss. state bacteriologist at Mont
gomery, dated August Is. 1912, speaks for
itself:

Of tire city with the menance Of impure
water forever removed. The we'll is but
few feet from the pumping station of
the city, and water can be put into the
mains of the city with comparatively lit
tie expense.
The water is soft, cool and perfectly
delightful to the taste, having no trace
Of lime in 1t, and showing clearly that Its
sources lie far up in the Cheaha noun
tains, IA miles east of the city. During
the 30 hours of CONSTANT pumping the
flow was reduced but four feet. Che sup
ply is inexhaustible, the experts say there
is sufficient quantity to supply a city of
the size of Birminghamr-and then some.

The Road Drag.

l read with much interest in your last weeks issue of The Times letter from MT. Joe Stayton, in which he speakes so favorably of the Road Drag. Now, MT. Stayton, I want to say, 1 am glad to know that least one man in St. Francis county has my idea about maintainance of road that is once properly drained, and I think too much could never be said of the benefits derived from the full use of the King Drag.
 In my opinion there is no process that improves tine roads with as little work and money as the Drag, though l think little improvement in how to construct Drag can be made over MT. Stayton's suggestion.
 By addressing the State Board of Agriculture of Kansas and Missouri. a complete description of this Drag may be had, or the International Harvester Co., s, Almanac and Ency- clopedia, Chicaco. which will be sent free to any address
 ! ours for Good Roads.
