Well at Atwood farm yields far short of hopes
Keen interest in a new water well near Albion turned to disappointment after a test at 166 feet produced under 400 gallons per minute. Observers note a 800 gpm target would have spurred activity, six nearby wells failed, and the site may irrigate about 30 acres. Governor Anderson has no immediate plan to seek a drought disaster declaration. A USDA drought relief report says Nebraska counties should not be classed as disaster areas compared with neighbors.
