Mound Valley, Labette County, Salt Well. 
At Mound Valley is a salt well 600 feet deep, the water from 
which was formerly used in a health home near by, which was 
built to utilize the water. As it has not been extensively ad- 
vertised, its use does not extend beyond the immediate vicinity. 
The water gushes out of the top of the well with sufficient force 
so that it can be piped to the hotel. The home is pleasantly 
situated a short distance east of the village, and the latter is 
easily accessible by two lines of railroad. It has been proposed 
to utilize the gas that comes up with the water for heating pur- 
poses. There are other gas wells in the vicinity which yield gas 
for local consumption, but the pressure is not very great. 
Overbrook, Osage County, Well. 
ATCHISON WELL. 
There is a well two and one-half miles northwest of the town 
on the farm of John Atchison. The water has been recom- 
mended by some of the local physicians on account of its thera- 
peutic properties. The well is 180 feet deep.
