bounty of pure sparkling water from

been produced for the past twenty
years. Since that time many wells
have been drilled by this firm for
the leading industrial plants as well
as citizens, of the town and commun

at a depth of 249 feet and W. J.

Elkin 112 feet deep.
Those who have old wells that
are unsatisfactory are invited to in
spect these jobs. Wells now being
drilled in this county are: L. M.
York, near Mt. Airy; Aaron Collins,
near Elkin. Wells have been drilled
by this company in fifteen different
counties in the state, the deepest
being in Burke county, one 907 feet
and one 704 feet. They are prepared
to drill wells from two to eight
inches in diameter, ranging in price
from 75c per foot, up.
