During 1885 ten new wells were drilled near Syracuse : six in the
Salina district, three in the Gere group, and one in the Geddes group
j
while one of these proved a comparative failure, the other nine are un-
usually successful, furnishing a large supply of brine at an average
strength of 77^ by the salinometer. The cost of these wells was $13,096.65
