Show PARSONS PUTS DOWN WELL Last Saturday Russell E. Parsons. . who owns a ranch in the new water . belt, received what looks like, the ! ; first real well casing to be brought i to the valley. The casing is 15 inches inch-es in diameter and made of 14 & 16 steel and is provided with a heavy foot piece or starter. The casing comes in lengths of two feet and is made in two sizes, one being just small enough to slip inside the other and when the well is down it will be double-thick and will be perforated at the water strata. This casing is to remain in the well for all time. Mr. Parsons will begin his well as soon as he can find anyone to do the work. |
