SODA WATER SPRING
A soda water spring has been discovered at Oromahoe, 12 miles from Kaikohr, North Auckland. While drilling for bridge foundations on the Paknraka-Slackbridge road, the Public Works Department struck the spring 55ft. under the bed of the stream. It rose sft. above the level of the water with the casing still in the bore. When the casing was withdrawn the spring forced up through the stream. It is hoped to put a permanent casing in the bore and leave the spring intact.
