Abstract
Much study has been given to the capacity of wells to furnish water and oil, and, with the use of deep wells for the drainage of irrigated lands, the shape and extent of the cone of depression become of great importance. In this paper three types of wells are discussed: (A) Artesian wells (not necessarily flowing), with a perforated casing extending through the water-bearing stratum; (B) wells in which the water-table is in the water-bearing stratum and which penetrate its full depth; and (C) open-bottom wells, that is, wells which just reach the water-bearing stratum.
