These waters in Kansas contain calcium and magnesium bi- 
carbonates and little besides. Some chemists have reported 
sodium sulfate in some of the waters of this general class. It 
is apparent that the sodium bicarbonate, the ingredient that 
gives an alkaline quality to such waters, is usually absent, or 
only present in small quantities. There are waters in the state, 
like the Abilena, and a water from Cherryvale that has been 
recently analyzed, which do contain considerable sodium car- 
bonate, but a very large quantity of some other ingredients en- 
tirely overshadows the sodium carbonate in those waters. 
The total solids are usually low, and in fact so low that some 
of the waters mentioned might be considered in the soft-water 
group.
