Moodyville Springs. 
At Moodyville,in Pottawatomie county, aboutfour miles north- 
east of Westmoreland,in Rock creek bottom, on the Westmoreland 
branch of a road connecting with the Leavenworth, Kansas & 
Western railroad at Blaine, are situated several springs that 
have obtained a local reputation. These springs are the prop- 
erty of EH. M. Moody, and are situated at the base of a limestone 
bluff surrounded by a fine grove of natural timber. | 
IMPROVEMENTS. 
An avenue bordered with large trees connects the springs 
property withthe main road. Some years ago a hotel was built 
on the land just west of the grove, and extensive improvements, 
including walks, fountains, swinging bridges, etc., were made 
on the property. Recently, however, no attempt has been made 
to keep the property in repair. On the bluff to the east of the 
spring is a so-called Indian mound, and a lookout has been built 
here which commands an extensive prospect over the surround- 
ing territory. Some rocks tumbled together on the side of the 
bluff near by form an interesting cave. The water of the main 
spring has a temperature of 12.2? C.(54° F.) and a flow of 360 
gallons per hour. It has a specific gravity of 1.00395. The 
qualitative analysis made by J. R. Eaton, chemist of William 
Jewell College, Liberty, Mo., showed calcium carbonate, mag- 
nesium carbonate, maagnesium sulfate, sodium sulfate, sodium 
chlorid, iron carbonate, silica, alumina, and a trace of organie 
matter. The water contains an abundance of free carbonic- 
acid gas, and, when concentrated, gives an alkaline reaction.
