McCracken well taps strong water flow near Washington
Reported at a McCracken farm oil well southwest of Washington, a robust water vein is described with a near perfect purifier rock layer above it. Washington’s daily water use is about 1.5 million gallons, and the new flow is said to exceed this amount. Also notes old-fashioned fireplaces seen in area homes and a Newcastle grocery cooperative plan to leverage buying power for lower prices and services.
