Gets Abundance of Water at 50 Feet

During the past week Paul Stamschror completed the well at his place, going down to a depth of 50 feet. The water stands at 20 feet in the well and he has been unable to lower it at all despite the steady pumping of a power pump that throws a large stream of water. Mr. Stamschror plans to develop an irrigation system for his entire place and says he will put down a second well if necessary, although he does not expect that will be required.

Mr. Schultz of Kalispell put down the well. He has moved his equipment onto the O. T. Rodee ranch to sink a well for Mr. Rodee. This will be followed by one on the Hetle ranch.
