It provides that every person, stock company, association, corporation, or limited liability company owning or controlling the real estate upon which is located an artesian or flowing well shall provide for each such well a valve or valves capable of controlling the discharge from such well and shall keep such valve or valves so adjusted that only such supply of water shall escape as is necessary for ordinary use by the owner, or the person in control, of such land, in conducting the owner's or person's business. In the winter, such flow may be permitted as will prevent freezing of the well, and when it is necessary, a sufficient flow may be allowed for the purposes of developing the well. The owner of an artesian well shall be required, by means of the construction of a reservoir or otherwise, to prevent the flow of the owner's well from running upon land belonging to another or from running into any ditch along any public highway except a regularly established drainage ditch.
