"Putting Running Water! In the Home and the Barn--How to Develop the Natural = Water Supply-- Several Systems Suggested. i (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) x N penning this short article the writer desires to stress two main points in regard to this subject, first, the need and importance of securing an adequate and permanent supply, and, second, the installation water "on tap" in house and stables and about the lawns and gardens. or hard water, it may be said that of i late many of the old shallow wells "of the Province have been failing ser- iously, thus indicating that the water table is not as high as it used to be. It i8 to be hoped that this is-only a temporary condition and that many . of these wells will soon become ges- | Viceable again. However, the shallow well can seldom be relied upon abso- lutely, and so as a rule it is wise te . sink such wells deeper. - This usually means drilling... Sometimes there fa good reason for abandoning the old well altogether and choosing a new site. A careful survey of the existing wells of the district in respect to depth, supply and character of the water will usually prove useful in re- gard to the advisability of drilling, also a knowledge of the nature, depth and dip. of the underlying strata or rock formation may help too. Instru- ments for locating undergroumd water, so far as our experience goes, have not been a success in this Pro- vince, although much is claimed for them in some other countries differ- ing widely from Ontario in geological formation. Some individuals claim that. they can locate underground water by means of a forked twig from such trees as cherry, plum, and hazel, and because we have known good wells to be found in this way, and because prominent scientists have given the matter considerable atten- tion in recent years, we are not in- clined to pooh-pooh the idea. Ba some cases old wells go dry because the water veins feeding the well have become clogged. If so, a charge of dynamite in the bottom will effect a remedy. Sometimes an old dug well will supply plenty of water for all time if it is dug a few feet deeper, or if the formation is sandy or graw- elly (fine) for some depth below the bottom a special filter may be sunk into a water-bearing layer of sand er gravel with good results. It is well to emphasize the value of a good spring. If one exists reasonably cose to the buildings it may be made to supply them with water if certain condition obtain. In every farm home there should be a large cistern esther in the cellar or just outside the eellar i i age of rain water. This water cam be used for washing purposes, bathing and flushing the closet. A large eig- tern at the barn and connected with the eave-troughing thereon, will sup- ply a large portion of the drinking water for the steck in the rainy per- lods. It is very essential that the supply be ample and never faiddng, and when this is assured steps may be confidentially taken to install water Systems in order to have the watep convenient about the home, The second point, namely, the dig- very big one, and one good deal might be w will permit onl aboyt which a ritteh.

Greater convenience would be the result of such a change. (2) A small water tank in the at- tic of the house will make it possible to install plumbing fixtures, ag sinks, bath and closet in the home, (3) Better than the attic tank gysg- tem is the compression System. A strong steel cylindrical tank igs locat- ed in the cellar or some frost-proof place, water is bumped into -it from well or cistern against air pressure which forces the water to all points » Where it is required. The pump may be operated by hand or better by gasoline engine, win ill, or electric i» (4) If electricity be available the compression system can be operated automatically and the istorage tank made so small that the water ig drawn fresh from the well instead of from a large storage tank, (5) If a good Spring exists am . 8round level with top of house op « higher, a pipe under the frost-line be- tween spring ang house is bractically all you need in order to have the Spring water on tap.
