24. Well 12 is owned by T. J. Thebo and drilling had just been completed when the well was inspected. The meter was lowered on September 9 to a depth of 639 feet below the top of the 8-inch collar, 1.7 feet above ground. There was a flow in this well amounting to about 5 gallons a minute. The water came from the bottom of the well, moved upward, and escaped into another sand before it reached a point within 550 feet of the surface. This movement was probably due to a slightly lower artesian pressure in the upper sand. There was no indication of any leakage around the bottom of hie 6-inch casing. Well 13 Well 13 is owned by Pat Cline and is in the rear of the bottling works. The flow is under control. The well was drilled during August 1938 and is reported to have 595 feet of 6-inch casing. The meter o/ jk "V was lowered on August 23 to a depth of 600 feet, and a flow amounting v \ to about 15 gallons a minute was found escaping around the lower end of the casing. Well 12 Well 14 Well 14 is owned by A. W. Blackman. The flow is under control.
