An Artesian Well is a Fancy Name for, Spring

Fancy, schmancy, the textbook discusses how an artesian well is a well that forces water to the surface by means of pressure. The illustration, in the book, goes so far as to show such a well spouting out onto the surface of the ground. In these here parts, we call that, a spring. Any places around here where you've seen a spring?
(Hint: Loyalsock Creek begins its life in Sullivan County as a series of springs. Rose Valley Lake, a man-made reservoir, arose from a spring that created Sugar Camp Run, which runs into Mill Creek, which empties into Loyalsock Creek. A log cabin, on 5th Avenue, between High Street and Louisa Street, is nicknamed, Springside. Why? The property is pock-marked with springs. )
Do you know of any other springs, around here? Write a comment, I would love to post all of the locations in the classroom.
One last question -- Why is well water cleaner and colder the deeper the well?
Have a great night, folks.
