Artesian Wells atid Water Horizons. — By Louis Woolman, Over- 

 brook, Pa. 1891. 8°, 12 pp. 



Tbis pamphlet, wbicb is a reprint from tbe annual report of the 

 State Geologist for 1890, treats of artesian wells and water horizons in 

 Southern New Jersey and their relations to an immense diatomaceous 

 clay bed having a maximum thickness of 300 feet. One plate is in- 

 cluded, showing the diatoms at 90 diameters. This work is very in- 

 teresting and will be very useful to lovers of this branch of microscopy.
