TAKING A SAMPLE OF WATER FROM AN INSANITARY WELL IN THE CITY LIMITS 



There are 2,491 wells in the city of Little Rock, the water from which must be examined 

 before they can be officially condemned and closed by the Board of Health. Epidemiologist 

 J. C. Geiger, U. S. Public Health Service, is shown in this picture, with a water-sample 

 bottle, ready to collect water for bacteriological examination. The two small cylinders in 

 the right foreground on top of the well curb are the metallic cases for the water-sample 

 bottle.
