40 JOURNAL OF THE 



special establishments for which the wells were bored, 

 the number of wells at each place, the averag-e depth 

 of the wells, the natural overflow in one minute of 

 time from that one of the series of wells from which 

 the overflow is largest, and the ag-greg-ate yield of wa- 

 from the several wells at each place in 24 hours when 

 the steam pump is applied. The data for this tabular 

 statement has been supplied by Mr. Henry K. Knox 

 Jr., of Charlotte, N. C, who bored all of these wells, 

 and who states that out of 23 surveys made by him, 

 only three were unsuccessful in locating' the desired 

 quantity and quality of water.
