 GROUND-WATER LEVELS


 Periodic measurements have been made of the water level in
well Leon 115 since 1950. This well which is near the shoreline
of Lake Jackson (fig. 1), is 194 feet in depth, and penetrates
the artesian aquifer which underlies Florida and parts of Georgia
and Alabama. Wells Leon 5 and Leon 7 (fig. 1), drilled as supply
wells for the City of Tallahasse, penetrate the same artesian
aquifer. The water level in well 5 was measured from 1932 to
1950, and that in well 7 has been measured from 1945 to present.
 Hydrographs in figure 6 show that the level in well 115 differs
in altitude from that in well 7, but the two fluctuate in the same
