Baxter Springs Mineral Well. 
There is a well on the farm of A. T. Ball, one mile north of 
the town and one-half mile west of Spring river.

The well is 
37 feet deep, usually contains 15 feet of water, and is not 
greatly affected by surface-water. There is a great diversity 
in the character of the water of different wells in this vicinity, 
on account of the peculiar arrangement of the strata; indeed, 
in some cases, it is necessary to drill to a depth of 400 feet to 
obtain a permanent supply of water.
