New Deep Well
Will Soon Be
Put To Work
The new deep artesian well
will be tapped into the system
within the next few days. The
well has been completed, and is
now ready for operation, how
ever it was necessary to properly
steralize the new well, and run
same for a good many hours, let
ting the water go to waste before
a correct sample of the water
could be obtained. This has been
done and just as soon as reports
are received from the State Health
Deepartment on the water from
the new well, it will be cut into
the water mains.
It is planned to shut down the
old well when the new well is
ent in, as the Mayor and Council
f"o1 that is the best way to de
tm-mine if our new well is produc
ing ns it is'supposed to do, know
ing that if it operates our water
system for a period of two weeks
or more, that we have a well that
is ample for our needs.
The well will be used for not
less than two weeks before final
payment is made on the well.
Mr. Gray, of Merrill-Gray said
that he would be happy to have
the well tested In every way we
wished, before final payment was
made, and further said that we
had one of the best wells that he
had ever put down, and that we
would be proud of the new well.
He has been mighty nice in his
dealings with the city and the
Mayor and Council are proud of
the new well and know that it
will mean much to us in the fu
ture.
And best of all now we do not
have to worry over something
happening to the one well we had,
as has been the case in so many
Geogia towns, who had water
trouble because their one well went
bad on them. Now we have two
wells, either one capable of taking
care of uor needs' in any emerg
ency.

BRYAN FB REPORTS
LARGEST PER CENT OF
MEMBERS IN DISTRICT
As of November 3, Bryan
County has reported more mem
bers obtained in proportion to its
quota than any other county in
the First District.
According to information from
state Farm Bureau headquarters
in Macon Bryan’s quota was 206
and the membership status stands
presently at 219. Indeed the re
port indicates that the local coun
ty is the only one in the First
District that has not only reached
its quota but has passed it.
The splendid showing the two
chapters of the Bryan County,
Farm Bureau have made are due
to the efforts of the membership
chairman, G. C. Martin, and oth
er officials who worke dtireless
ly during the one-day drive some
weeks ago, and who have given
much of their time on follow-up
membership since then.
