Device Brings Water Into Mrs. Broom's Kitchen, Jan. 4, 1921

Waxhaw, R.F.D. 1, Jan. 3—After several costly attempts to get water on one of her farms by putting down a well in the yard and failing on account of the extreme hardness of the rock encountered, Mrs. L.E. Broom has had a line of poles set from the house to the spring and on these a tight wire attached on which a bucket suspended by a pulley is hung and sent down tot he spring when water is to be carried. Mr. L.M. Riner constructed this project and we understand that it is considered a very welcome labor-saving device. From the front page of The Monroe Journal, Jan. 4, 1921
