I want to give your readers a idea of one kind of a Western Wood Mill. It takes two men and a Fony to manipulate it. The Well is a deep one. The bucket is fastened to the end of a very Long rope which is let Down to the water. Then the other Eod of the rope is run through a wheel in the top of the Well House and a Man mounted of a Texas Pony ties this end to his Saddle and puts the Pooy to a dead run into the Field and when the bucket get to the top the Roan at the Well gives the horseman the signal and he wheels the Pooy and starts for the Well and by the time the bucket a emptied and let Down in the Well the Pooy leaps away to repeat and to of until they have drawn enough.
