Comparing this water with that of the Great Spirit spring as 
stated above, and supposing the two waters to be combined as 
has previously been noted, the comparison would be as follows:

It will be readily seen that these waters are much alike, and 
that the important constituents are in about the same propor- 
tion. As would be expected, the spring in the valley, subject 
to erosion by high waters, would not show the same tendency 
to build up a mound as one situated on high ground. 
There is still another spring a short distance south of this 
just described, which is immediately in the bed of the river, 
and covered by the stream during high water. 
Leavenworth, Mountain Dew Spring. 
(Home-Riverside Coal-mining Company.) 
The water of this spring or well is obtained at a depth of 
sixty feet in the No. 1 plant of the Home mine. The water is 
_ discharged by the continuous operation of a Deane pump, with 
three-fourths-inch discharge.
