Conway Springs, Sumner County. 
There were originally seven springs in use in this locality, all 
within a radius of fifty feet, but the use of all but two has been 
discontinued. One of these flows at the rate of one gallon per 
minute, with a temperature of 13.8°C. (57° F.), and the other at 
the rate of one and one-half gallons per minute, with a temper- 
ature of 14.4°C.(78°F.) These springs are encased with twenty- 
four-inch tiling, and are situated in a pavilion about twenty 
feet square. 
They are located in a five-acre park of Russian mulberry and 
catalpa trees, and there is a lake, covering perhaps half an acre, 
below the springs. 
The water has been used medicinally for years, and much 
of it is used in the surrounding county as a table water, but 
very little has been shipped away. Conway Springs is at a 
crossing of two lines of the Missouri Pacific railroad.
