The three other springs afforded waters containing solids to the 

 extent of 5 "44. 1594 and 496 parts in 1,000 of water. All of these 

 waters probably rise from rocks of the Hudson River formation. 



Bay Si. Paul, Charlfvoix Co. (<;)— Several mineral waters are

 contained 206S parts of solid matter in 1,000 of water and had a bitter 



saline taste.
