The first artesian flow in this
county was struck on the Schacht
ranch 35 years ago. At that time
the state government interested it
self in the development of artesian
wells and offered bonus for every
flow struck in Nevada. AS result
the Schacht well brought bonus
of 5000. During the years that fol-
lowed, their development was slow
and the majority of the thirty flow
ing wells have been bored in recent
years. The Dangberg company has
taken a lead in this work and own
no less than twelve fine wells on
their different ranches.

For the past year the machine
has been under the management
of H. B. Beers, who was formerly a
partner of Burt Dake.
Mr.. Beers is probably one of the
the best informed men in Nevada
on artesian wells and their develop
ment. During the past season he
drilled sixteen wells in this Valley
and in every instance succeeded in
getting artesian flows.
The smallest flow was 28,800 gal
Ions per day and the largest 2l6,000
per day.
On the Schacht ranch, the artes-
ian well drilled 35 years ago, had al
most ceased flowing. Mr.. Beers in
spected it and gave his opinion that
it could be restored at nominal cost.
Such proved to be the case. Two
days work on the well brought the
flow back to its original capacity of
40 gallons per minute.
