drug store stouffville friday they directed councillor ilbr- insky and his committee to proceed with drilling operations at tiiice the engineers report in part reads as follows the source cf water is a series of springs rising on the slopes of land about two miles northwest of stouff ville and the water appears to he good the springs however are located south of ploughed fields hav ing an elevation of 20 to 30 feet abovethe ground around the springs and during wet weather flushes of dirty ground water flow down the slopes causing tiie spring water to be discolored and possibly slightly polluted the best remedy for this is to cut a ditch along the north of the spring area to intercept the flood water and to discharge it nway from the springs this can easily bo done at relatively small cost before any work can be done it will be necessary to obtain levels so as to select the best lines for the ditch or ditches the question was asked if it would be possible to conserve the spring water that now escapes the intake the area is water bearing sodden and soft the surface is difficult to work in as there are innumerable roots but after a slight clearance it would be feasible to drive tonguud and grooved sheet piling say six feet into the ground and about five feet above the length of such a sheet piling on the southeast anil southwest sides of the upper intake would be say 300 feet this sheet piling should be supported by a bank of earth on both sides the embankment would also raise the water level at the spring we have no doubt that you have contractors at stouffville who could undertake this work the cost will be in the vicinity of 1500 we are investigating the prospect of obtaining water by sinking an artesian well on your waterworks property there does not appear to be any reason other than the geolo gical formation why such a supply should not be made available such well or wells would eliminate trou bles with respect to pollution two wells should ibe less costly than sheet piling f uxbridge twp council it was not until the sixth that they sent a man that far again earl cook made them look like beginners at bat until the seventh when he let up a little and the hiskory wielded by experienced batsmen soon decided the fate of the game stouffville commenced to tap the ball in the third innings when two men got onto bases only to be strand ed in the fourth and fifth a runner was stranded on bases also in the 7th and 8th ibut the hitting being all infield was easily taken care of the runners were weak too and lacked the direction of capable coaching it was the greatest game of ball seen on the local diamond this sea- sou masterson for peterboro struck out only two men while cook for stouffville struck out thirteen bat ters with the same experience base running and fielding as displayed by the visitors stouffville should have won the game but there is no kick from any quarter for a small town to go so far in the league
