Book Description
Excerpt from Artesian Wells as a Means of Water Supply: Including an Account of the Rise, Progress, and Present State of the Art of Boring for Water in Europe, Asia and America; Progress in the Australian Colonies; A Treatise on the Water-Bearing Rocks; Permanence of Supplies The story of the rise, progress and development of the art of well making is a long but exceedingly interesting one, and in no country in the world is there likely to be, in the near future, so great a degree of interest taken in it, nor such valuable results accrue from the development of it as in Australia. Although a certain number of far-seeing colonists - few in comparison with the great number who were directly interested in the vital question of an increased supply of water to the country districts - had persistently advocated, through a tedious current of years, the necessity of obtaining artesian water by means of boring, _it is only comparatively recently that the attention of the Governments, pastoralists and the public has been really attracted to the subject. It had been urged here for many years in the best possible channel of publicity - the public press - by engineers who had devoted their skill and energies to the adoption and development of it, and this during a time of unequalled prolific expenditure in the construction of expensive railways and other public works, and in the development of goldfields, many of which have not as yet paid their way. It is now, unfortunately, only too easy to calculate the enormous saving in live stock alone, which would have accrued if a small portion only of the millions of money that have been expended in the years gone by upon public works had been diverted to tapping the artesian water supplies then undoubtedly at our disposal.
