EEPORT UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. 



it impossible, except in a few cases, to compare my notes of 1878 with, 

 those of 1871. The highest temperature recorded in 1871 was 198° F., 

 which agrees quite closely with the highest (198^° r,)which I obtained. 

 In the following table I have given all the springs of which I took 

 the temperatures, with the descriptions that are sufficient, excei)t in a 

 few cases, which will be noted after the table :
