An Old Fashioned System, But
By COlly! Ii Found The Water

AMELIA, Jl-ly 7 IF once
YOU try and don't succeed, try
try again. vas a good motto
for the Ashman brothers when
they wanted to have d well dug
near where they were planning
to build a milking parlor.
On the first try the well was
dug over 500 feet in depth no
water. the second try went down
over 200 feet-the same result.
They were rather disc0ura ged
until someone suggested trying
a dlvining rod. DurWard Walker.

told them to dig where h e
branch pointed down as he walk
cd over the field.
If we hit water I'll have to
lean toward the peach tree idea
q little bit, J. Craig Ashman
told the men. Some b e D D / e
don't believe in it and / am one
of them, but if we find water
it's fine with me. II
And they did.
People who believe in this
method Of finding water say the
prongs Of the forked stick should
be held with the prongs point
ing downward When water is
found. the stick turns irresist-
ably UPSIDE down with the other
end pointing toward the spot
where the water will be found.
and there the well is dug.
The Ashmans did it and at 45
feet struck water. At 81 feet.
after pumping out Is gallons a
minute for 20 minutes, they still
had 80 feet of water.

Despite the fact that much is

Some features of the Ameri-
