MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES 
[BULL. 32. 
ARIZONA. 
Definite information relating to the mineral springs of Arizona is dif- 
ficult to obtain, and the list given here is not offered as complete. In 
some portions of the Territory alkaline, saline, and sulphureted waters 
are so numerous that they attract but little attention. So far as can 
be ascertained, none of the springs included in the table has been 
improved, although the Monroe Springs are said to have been used to 
some extent for bathing. Saline springs appear to be most abundant 
and a large number of them are thermal. Many of them will probably 
be utilized for medicinal purposes as the country becomes more thickly 
populated. The few analyses given have been derived from Vol. Ill 
(geology) of Wheeler's survey reports.
