  The

  flow 
  of 
  this 
  

   stream 
  at 
  East 
  Nassau 
  for 
  November, 
  1892, 
  was 
  30 
  cubic 
  feet 
  per 
  

   second 
  (catchment, 
  120 
  square 
  miles), 
  or 
  at 
  the 
  rate 
  of 
  0.25 
  cubic 
  

   foot 
  per 
  second 
  per 
  square 
  mile. 
  

  

  In

  the

  at 
  Wilson's 
  dam 
  was 
  4 
  cubic 
  feet

  or 
  at 
  the 
  rate 
  of 
  0.06 
  cubic 
  

   foot 
  per 
  second 
  per 
  square

  The 
  minimum 
  flow 
  for 
  August, 
  

   1894, 
  at 
  the 
  same 
  place 
  was 
  5.2

  or 
  at

  Minimum 
  flow 
  of 
  Schroon 
  river. 
  Gagings 
  of 
  this 
  stream 
  are 
  

   kept 
  at 
  Warrensburg, 
  but 
  the 
  natural 
  flow 
  is 
  considerably 
  ob- 
  

   scured 
  by 
  the 
  storage 
  of 
  Schroon 
  lake, 
  which 
  is 
  controlled 
  by 
  the 
  

   Starbuckville 
  dam. 
  During 
  the 
  month 
  of 
  August, 
  1899', 
  the 
  mean- 
  

   flow 
  at 
  Warrensburg 
  was 
  taken 
  at 
  150 
  cubic 
  feet 
  per 
  second 
  

   (catchment, 
  563 
  square 
  miles), 
  or 
  at 
  the 
  rate 
  of 
  0.27 
  cubic 
  foot 
  per 
  

   second 
  per 
  square 
  mile, 
  but 
  this 
  is 
  not 
  very 
  precise.

   days 
  of 
  the 
  month 
  it 
  was 
  only 
  208 
  cubic

  These 
  

   figures 
  include 
  the
