GOOD WELLS AND GOOD WATER
MAKE FOR GOOD HEALTH.

May and April are the spring-cleen.
ing months and should serve to re-
pair the well as much as to dust the
carpets. Nothing on the farm is more
important or more valuable than pure
water. Bad or impure water is more
dangerous than the deadliest poicon
N always effects those who drink it
Wells are polluted by organic mat
ter getting into them This matter
comes from human beings or from
animals, and Is always bad for those
who drink it. If it comes from a
case of typhoid, or from a person who
carries typhoid germs, and gets into
the well. it will produce typhoid fever
In those who drink 1t. This matter
gets into tn well usually through
cracks in the top of the we'll, through
soiling the bucket by touching it with
dirty hands or setting it on a dirty
floor or through holes in the top of
the we'll.
To be sure hat the we'll is good
and that dangerous material is kept
out.
l. The well must be not less than
10 feet deep. AS a general PROPOSE
ton, the deeper the better.
2. The top must be sound and
tight so that no water which falls on
1t can drip back into the we'll.
3. The well should be provided
with a pump or with a bucket which
empties itself and does not have to
be touched. The double bucket is
always dangerous.
4. The ground Immediately around
the well should be sloped up to the
well and banked with clay Or covered
with cement, so that all water spilled
around the vel will run off and not
trickle back.
5. The well should be cased with
brick or terra Gotta pipe and the
space back of the casing filled with
sand.
6. A spring in a limestone coun-
try can not be so protected as to
make 1t perfectly sure that it does
not CONF from underground streams
at a place far from the well.
Z. The spring should be so pro-
tected hat water can not wash into
it from the hillside above or from
the platform below. This is best done
by cementing or stoning the curbing
at least a foot above the ground all
around and putting in a pipe for the
overflow. All water should then be
drawn from the overflow pipe, and
not by dipping buckets or dippers.
Look well to the well.

The necessity OF protecting wells
absolutely against any chance of pol.
luton from surface drainage or in
filtration of water just below the
surface of the ground is a well-known
principle of sanitary science. How
ever. the hazy ideas that are prevalent
as to the ways n mean of effect
ing this protection have led the writer
to make the following notes on con.
struction of wells.
The curb of the well should be
twelve to fourteen inches above the
surface of the ground. At the sur
face of the ground there should be q
! platform OF concrete or stone, slopine
away from the walls of the well. The
edge Of this platform should be al
least four feet from the walls. The
walls themselves should be SO con
structed that no water can pass
through them without having per-
colated through at least eight to
twelve feet Of soil, depending upon
the character of the soil. The top
of the well should be covered with
a water-tight cover Of wood, concrete
or stone. If wood is used, nothing
should be considered but shiplap or
togue and groove lumber.
Bored, drilled or driven wells
usually have a shallow pit to protect
the pumping apparatus from frost.
These should all be constructed and
protected with as much care as the
dug well. Drainage entering this pit,
either by the direct route Of falling
through the cover or percolating
lative and will follow the path of
least resistance down the casing and
in time grossly pollute the water
below.
Old wells can be remodeled by
raising the curb and digging u the
dirt on the outside OF the wells, and
then plastering the walls with cement
plaster-two parts sand and one part
of cement. The well should then be
encased with clay puddle or concrete.
The final step would be a platform
on the surface OF the ground sloping
away from the well.
BY carefully following these direc-
lions and locating the we'll at least
100 feet from a privy or cesspool,
there need be little danger Of having
a contaminated well unless the
ground water itself is polluted by
larger sources than privy or cess
pool. Or again, the privy or cess
pool may be in the same water level
that furnishes the we'll with water.
In this east the we'll should be
abandoned at once.
