I asked him for a copy of his well log and he referred me to the State Engineer* e representative here, Harry Jameson, from whoa X obtained the attached copy of well log, Searl es says the pressure at well was 39 lbs. after it was deepened and an Scinch liner installed to the 650 foot level, fhc well driller1* report indicate* a flow of 1200 to 1500 C.P.M., but this is merely an estimate. In discussing the subject with Hr, Jameson he offered to 00-oper­ate with us in taking an accurate weir measurement, but said a small ditcher would probably be necessary to clean out Searles* drainage ditch so Parshall flume could be installed. If you feel we should further pursue this offer 1 will arrange for measurements.
