     miles south of east of Crescent City;  the third spring is about 8 miles
     east of this town; and the fourth is on the north fork of the river,  15
     miles northeast of the same place.
                          TABULATED DATA.
       Table  1  contains  an  alphabetic list  by counties  of  all  the springs
     whose locations are shown on the map, Plate I (in pocket).  The names
     of the owners of springs (so far as known) are given, and the approxi-
     mate distances by the usually traveled routes from  the nearest rail-
     road station or from the principal town in the region.  Many of the
     figures that give elevation, number of springs, temperature, and yield
     do  not  agree  with  figures  previously  published,  but  they were  ob-
     tained mainly by personal observation and are believed to be approx-
     imately correct.  The column  showing  development or use gives the
     conditions noted during the period covered by the field examination
     These conditions vary somewhat from year to year, for commercially
     developed springs are occasionally abandoned and undeveloped springs
     are  improved  as resorts or for  bottling water or other  purposes, but
     the total number of springs is almost constant.
       Table  2  contains  a  list  of  the  springs  that were  used  during  the
     period covered by the field examination either as permanent resorts or
     as  camping  places.  It gives  the  distances  from  railroad  or  supply
     points,  and the capacity,  open season,  and improvements of resorts,
     these latter three factors being of course changeable.
