Available supply of artesian water: 
Fortunately Florida with its heavy 
rainfall and with its formations especi¬ 
ally adapted for taking up and holding a 
store of water is subject to an annually 
added supply not likely to be over drawn. 
It must not be supposed, however, that 
more water can be taken from the arte¬ 
sian horizon than enters it. On the con¬ 
trary the supply avaliable is neccesarily 
much less than the supply received. For¬ 
tunately the rainfall is sufficient to assure 
an underground water supply among the 
States most valuable assets.
