    28. Well 20 is owned by I. M. Pinjuv. The flow is under control. The • meter was lowered on August 18 to a depth of 270 feet below the ground, and no velocity was recorded. This well was reported to be cased with 292 feet of 6-inch standard pipe, and therefore the meter -was within the cased portion of the hok.during the test. The meter did not reach the bottom of the casing Where any leakage would bo likely to occur. The casing was perforated after it had been placed in the well, and it is believed that the meter was caught on projecting pieces of metal left by the perforator. Well 21 Well 21 is owned by J. H. Umbaugh. It is provided with a valve to control the flow. A view of this well is shown on Place 3, C.
