Which is a stretch of level land about one half mile in 
width. This land rises gently toward the west, but is 
cut up to some extent by streams. Following this level 
stretch 1s a stee» Slope which beyond the limits of the 
farm ends in a broad and level upland plain. | 
All the streams crossing the farm are small and all 
have an easterly direction. The streams which cross the 
tract all originate in the uplands to the west. They are 
rapid during rainy weather, but guite or almost dry for the 
greater part of the year. In addition to the streams 
oroperly so called there are small swales extending across 
some of the fields. These are in Low laces and are 
caused by the water following along hard layers u&til it 
comes near the surface, where abundant and never railing 
Springs originate. The swales are the courses followed 
by water from these springs. They are very wet, and in 
summer covered with a very dense growth of Irlags.
