ARTESIAN SPRINGS AND
FLOWING WELLS
(Contioued from last week,.
withstanding statements to the con-
trary no amount of -elorine or other
poisorious doctoring can ever make at
absolutely safe for drinking purposes.
When we went to see this wonder-
ful spring last season, our guide who
had been there before, said to us
when we came no the top of a Ilia and
looking toward the heavy cedar
swamp to the west, asked us if we
poold notice anything peculiat among,
the dark foliage of the evergreens.
The reply was that there seemed to be
'a tall white silver birch tree \vith on-
ly what seemed to be a few swaying
leaves and branches at the top. He
said, "thats the great spring.' We
'were then several hundred yards aw-
ay from it, but on getting close to it
we saw that what looked. like foliage
at the top was in reality the spraying
water as it fell into a great pool .of
crystal water below which formed the
source of a swift stream of sparkling
spring water flowing away to the sou-
th, without so far any use of benefit
being derived from it, except the sup-
ply of water for farm purposes.
The property is well adapted for
the construction of a large reservoir
and a proposition has also been under
'consideration for the forming of trout
ponds, This is the only true Artesian
Spring so far discovered that , never
ceases to flow night and day, and at
every 'season of the year without di-
minishment of volume.
It is ,supposed to derive its never
ailing supply from a vast subterran-
ean river or lake below the enclosing -
rock strata.
As already stated, the name "Ar-
tesian" is applied to water "aprings
which will rise above the surface of
the ground by natural hydrostatic
pressure from a water carrying bed
enclosed between two impervious lay -
'ens."
Many interesting facts are connect-
ed with drilled Artesian springs and
wells in several other countries. Even
an the Great Desert of Sahara, the
boring of the Artesian wells is a very
ancient industry- and some Oases are
supplied wholly with water from Ar-
tesian wells, when at a depth of only
about 200 feet the upper strata is pier -
ted when a constant stream is sup -
Plied with the result of the great
benefit accruing to the sandy desert
places is quite apparent and ',settle-
ments have sprung up with palm, fig,
and date trees where formerly for un-
told millions of years '"there was
nothing but waste and solitude." The
importance of deep Artesian wells in
such cases cannot therefore be over-
estimated. It appears that this mode
of well boring in Europe was first
practised in the French Province of
Artois, whence the name "Artesian"
is derived. At a place called Aire an
that Province there is a well from
which the water has continued; steadi-
ly to flow to a height of nearly a do-
zen feet above the ground for some
three hundred -ears Another in the
a • •
old Carthusian convent at Hillers ,da-
tes from the twelfth century and still .Monday, Tuesday, Weanesday,
At St. Louis Missouri an Artesian
well era's abandoned in brine at a ,dep-
th approaching the vast depth of ee-
arly thre,e quarters of a mile.
The deepest well in the world is
said to be at Sperenberg•, near Berlin,
ween the extraordinary depth of over
four thousand two hundred feet was
reachede without baying aiercad throu-
gh the salt deposit, which was esti-
mated to have the enormous thickness
•of considerably ,over four thousand
feet,
At Louisville 'Kentucky there is a
well equalling, Grenelle and at Char-
leston South Caroline was another
1250 'feet deep which discharged wat-
er et the rate of 1200 gallons an hour.
An a large hotel property at Phila-
delphia another well yielded 50,00 gal-
lons per day.
One of the most astonishing Artes-
ian wells or springs ever discovered in
the world, and strange to say, so far
has received no public notice, existed
'about thirty five years ago at Savann-
ah 'Georgia -Where springs of any kind
are exceedingly scarce.
It was known as "Thtinderbolt
Spring," on the famous white shell
Boulevard running out to the world
renowned Spanish Moss , festcyened
Dungeness, known even to this day as
"ThunderbOlt Road," from the fact
that tradition from remote times as-
cribes the origin of the spring to a
thunderbolt and stranger still so say
its mysterious disappearance is also
alleged -to have been caused by a repe-
tition of the same phenomenon, and
there is no spring there now, only a
deep hole in the dark murky soil
where the wonderful spring once was.
The location is still pointed out and
--the Thunderbolt -story,'with-many em-
ballishments is retold to tourists and
visitors to that "Southern City of the
Sea." •

Lumber industriee of Brit sh
Columbia are sending spruee to Bos-

and -Ciba, new markets created with-
in the last few months. Demands
from regular fir markets in Great
laritein, Asia, Australia and South
Africa are reported better than
normal.
The demand for Canadian flour is
increasing rapidly in the Orient.
This year 347,760 barrels of flour
•were exported from Medicine Hat
mostly for the East. Great Britain
is Canada's best customer for wheat
flour, having takee 130,000 barrels
of the total of 684,698 barrels ex-
ported during the month of August.
The Canadian Pacific Rockies are
•not "shot up" yet. Following. a 30 -
day hunting trip, Mr. and Mrs. Kol-
lock, of Los Angeles, told of deer
that walked right up to camp; bears
-that prowled all around in numbers;
rams and mountain sheep in abund-
ance; lakes full of trout caught with
every throw of the line.
Despite alleged trade depression
and "blue ruin" talk, during the
'week ending October 31, 1925, 67 new
companies were formed with author-
ized capital of $151,658,000, as corn -
spared with 90 companies with al.12,-
-614,875 capital the previous week
and with 37 companies with $9,568,_
000 capital, the correspeinding week
of last year.
During the'96 hews from Monday,
November 9, to Thursday, Novem-
ber 12, the Canadian Paeifie Rail-
way loaded a car of grain every 56
seconds, the total being 6,150 cars.
On Wednesday 1,805 ears were load-
ed and on Thursday 1,818, while the
record for the year and for many
years pact was reached on Friday,
November 13, when 1,994 cars were
loaded.
Involving the use of 31/2 million
tons of crushed rack, or about 70
000 carloads, approximately 1,000
miles along the Canadian Pacific
Railway, Eastern -Lines, have been
bellasted with rock to date. Rock
ballast is dustless and there is a
very great increase in comfort for
the passenger. Rock-balla.sting also
increases the strength of the track
and otherwise improves its physieal
condition as to drainage and other
matters.
The Canadian Pacific Railway has
announced the offer of three frees
scholarships to apprentices and oth-
er employees enrolled on the perma-
nent staff of the company and under
21 years of age, and to minor sons
of employees. The scholarships
cover four years tuition in architec-
ture, chemical, civil, mechanical or
electrical engineering at McGill Uni-
versity and are subject to competi-
-nye exam ination.
Taking steps in the United States
toward a.greater recognition of clean
sportsmanship and the need of con-
servation of fish, game and forest
resources, Ozark Ripley, of Tennes-
see, editor of Field and Stream, Out-
door Life, Outing, .announced at
Montreal reeentlythat catching game
fish with worths had been banned
in praztically all states of the re-
public. Worm fishing is considered
destructive as small fish returned to

Sugar beet production in Canada
is increasing an a phenomenal scale
while the value of refined beet sugar
has increased about 100 per cent. in
1924. In 1224; 31,111 aeres were
planted to sugar beets yielding 295,-
177 tons of beets _from which 85.-
770,709 pounds of sugar was railiesd
with a value of 86,192,645. In 1928

The Toronto Daily Star printed this
statement with a heading in large
type, which read, "7o Per cent. of
Presbyterians Voted for United
Church." This heading is exidentlyji
a bit of gratuitous propaganda on the isiai

challenged to prove the statement la
contained in that heading. Dr. Pidg-
eon is far too careful to make such 1
a statement, as he knows well it ill .
would be contrary to facts.
This statement is, after all, only a
reprint of the figures issued from
time to time by the Publicity Bureau
of the United Church, but adorned
this time with nice percentages work-
ed out to their own satisfaction and
calculated to magnify the United
Church of Canada. But the figures
