TIIRKK ARTESIAN WELL WATER SYSTEM FULFILLS NEED Port Jervis Police Receive Marksmanship Awards DISTRICT liCTVRER PATS VISIT TO TAFT CSAfTEM to An HIM) Kilning In Tests Made After Year Indicate Supply Is More Than Adequate for Village WASHINGTONVILLE Tests lor one indicate that the new artesian well 6stem lor the village is working satisfactory. Mayor Archibald A. Courter told a public meeting held this week. A meter shows that during 1937 more than 44,765,000 gallons of water were pumped from one well for an average daily consumption of 121.400 gallons at cost of $5100 per million gallons pumped. The new system was placed in operation a year ago after a well had been drilled in back of Bordens plant on West Mam street.

A pump house was built and a new six inch cast iron main connects tins station Nitli the 212.000 gallon standpipe situated on the hill in the rear of Central Scliool. A new pipe line was required from the storage tank to the center of the villa Re square. Only one well will be used in the new system, it was decided after tests had shown that it would pro- iic'e more than an adequate supply. Requirements for a clearance of 100 feet on all sides of the well necessitated purchase of additional land on West Main street. One parcel was acquired fiom Anthony Saturno and condemnation proceedings were instituted against adjoining properties of William VanDu- zcr and Ida Cohen.

The old water system was fed by a reservoir 111 Woodcock Mountain, two miles away. Plans for the artesian system were made after complaints of cattle grazing near the reservoir and the necessity of replacing three miles of pipe which was in use forty years. Officials cut off the reservoir supply at a point one mile above the village. Prom that point to the reservoir, farm residents use the old supply. R.
