The Times-Enterpri8e presonts herewith an analysis of the
water used in Thomasville. This analysis was made by Edgar Ever
hart A. M. Ph. D. who is a chemist employed by the United States
Department of Agrioultnre. He has been detailed to work with the
Geological Survey of Georgia. It will be a sonree of great sailer..-•
tion to Thomasville people to know that the water they drink' is so
pure and healthful. Particularly gratifying are the words of Mr Ever-
hart when lie says "The water is remarkably free from sewerage con-
lamination. From its mineral composition it should be classified as
a mild Epsom wuter combined with oArbonato of lime. It should
act very well on the digestive organs.”
The analyses are from Well number one at the Court House and
Well number two at tho pumping station and are as follows:
