The demand is spreading. Mountain Valley Water Co. distributes its green bottles of spring water from Hot Springs, Ark., to 40 states. And to cater to tastes brought home by tourists, President John G. Scott has added such familiar European mineral waters as Evian, Vichy-Célestins and Fiuggi to the company's line of products...
