REALLY NOT SMITHS FAULT
Mrs. Commuter Had Blamed Him Un. duly, and Now She Wants tho
 Law Changed.

Even in town the commuters wife had been subject to violent likes and dislikes, but in the suburbs her preju- dice seemed intensified. Their neigh bor on the left was the object of her sincerest aversion. "I think he Is the most selfish man l ever met she said. Such contrast to MT. Brown, on our right, who is the soul of neigh borly kindness"
 "On what do you base your esti- mate of their character?" her hus- band asked.
 Fences" said she. "Just look at Mir. Browns fence. He has kept all the ugly posts and crossboards on his own side and has presented the smooth finished surface to us. But you don't catch MT. Smith doing that. No, indeed He looks out for num- Der one and keeps the nice side for himself, while we get all the rough patchwork"
 "But that is not Smiths fence," her husband argued. "It is ours"
 "Ours?" she echoed. How does that happen?"
 'It happens through legal statute which provides that every man who wants his property fenced in must build part of the fence and keep the ragged edges on his own side. That Is the law"
 "How perfectly ridiculous" she said. "If we continue to live in the country isn't there some way 1t can be changed?"

Deming, \. NJ, Jan. 24.-Dr. o. o. o.
borne has returned from California and
announces that he is now here to stay.
He brought back with him on this trip
the Alessrs. AlclIath Bros, of Yaeaville,
Calf, experienced well drillers. They
have contracts to sink irrigation wells
in this vicinity for o. o. Osborne, D. D.
Smith, B. H. Crane, H. Bessacs Miss
Jennie Gray, Mrs. Ethel Cooper and Miss
Margaret Gray. The big well rig Of the
McBath Bros. has been shipped and Is
expected here every day. They put down
a different type Of well from the wells
now in use in this valley. 1t Is called
the ''air-dight well" As long as the
hole will stand mp, no casing IS insert
ed. When the first water stratum IS
encountered, it is usually necessary TO
put down the casing. Twelve inch cas-
ing is used and it is sunk right on
through the WITHDRAWING stratum, and
the hole is continued until the next wa
ter stratum is encountered. II these
two strata appean strong enough 70
furnish the amount of water required
a smaller sized casing IS lowered until 1t
rests upon this second stratum and the
top or 10 IS lilst above the leFel OF lit
first stratum. The larger II inch casing
is then iacked-up until its lower end
is Just below the level Of the first wa
ter-bearing stratum, thus leaving aceess
for the water from the first stratum
to the well between the lower end Of
the u inch casing and the upper end
of the eight inch casing.
With the two water-bearng strata
thus connected, the water rise in the
well from a slight autesian pressure
which occuTs in practically all the wells
in the valley A pit is then dug around
the casing of sufficient size 10 allow the
installation of the character of pump
desired, down to the water level, which
is somewhat above the level of the first
water bearing stratum. At the water
level the u inch casing is cut and the
pump installed, using the casing below
as a suction.
The advantages claimed by the Nc
Alath Bros. are the elimination Of the
trouble and expense of the straineT, the
Of sand from the well, since
the sand is sucked directly up and out
at the top and has no opportunity 10
