OREGON. 
Oregon is well supplied with valuable mineral springs, both hot and 
cold. The thermal springs are numerous, and, as in Nevada and Utah, 
are found mainly in connection with faulted strata. Carbonated springs 
are also frequently found, and, with alkaline and sulphureted waters, 
comprehend most of the varieties found in the State. Chittenden's 
Health and Pleasure Resorts of the Pacific Coast for 1879 contains 
the best list heretofore published, but it is not complete for the present 
time. The present list has been made up mainly from reports obtained 
directly from the localities. Various maps have also been consulted, 
and Mr. Mark B. Kerr and Mr. Eugene Ricksecker have furnished data as 
to springs in the southern counties of the State. A considerable num- 
ber of the springs have been improved and are utilized as resorts.
