MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES.

BY A. C. PEALE; M. D.

INTRODUCTION.

In attempting the collection of data for the statement of the commercial value of the mineral waters of the'country for publication in the 

report on the Mineral Resources of the United States, 1883 and 1884,1

it was necessary as a prerequisite to have a list of the springs from 

which these waters are derived. An examination of the few general works on the subject very soon showed that all existing lists 

were incomplete. The tables given in this paper were therefore compiled, as the first step in the preparation of the mineral spring statistics of the United States. They were omitted from the paper published in Mr. Williams's report, for want of space. Since the appearance 

of that report they have been revised and, with the addition of such 

analyses as could be obtained, prepared for publication as a bulletin of 

the Survey.

The most complete compilation previously made of the mineral springs 

of the United States is believed to be that brought together by a committee of the American Medical Association2 and published in Vol. XXXI 

of the transactions of the association (1880). It enumerates about 500 

localities. Walton's Mineral Springs of the United States and Canada, 

published in 1883 (third edition), mentions some 279 localities for the 

United States. Moorman's Mineral Springs of North America, issued 

in 1873, refers to or describes 171 springs. Bell's Baths a.nd Mineral 

Waters, which bears the date of 1831, mentions 21 places, which are 

increased to 181 in his Mineral Springs of the United States and 

Canada, published in 1855. A. N. Bell's Climatology and Mineral 

Waters of the United States, published during the latter part of 1885, 

enumerates 173 localities. The lists prepared for the present compilation include 2,822 localities. Over 600 are places of resort and 

more than 200 sell the waters to a greater or less extent. The lists 

may not be complete as to the number of localities and certainly are

not so far as the total number of individual springs is concerned, reports not having been received from all the localities. Still, they are 

published as preliminary to more detailed work, which it is hoped may 

follow in the future. The information has been derived primarily from 

the various State geological reports, State guide and hand books, Gov 

eminent geological reports and maps, and various scientific publications. To enumerate all these sources would be giving a large part of 

the bibliography of the subject, a work now in preparation. Much additional material has been obtained from members of the Geological 

Survey whose duties have taken them into so many portions of the 

country. Supplementary data have been received in answer to a special set of inquiries sent throughout the entire country, and efforts 

have been made to verify the matter presented in regard to the various 

localities by direct correspondence in each instance.

The answers to the questions, as a rule, have been very satisfactory. 

To mention all those to whom the writer is indebted on this score would 

be impracticable here.

Although the scope of this paper is far from that of a treatise upon 

the subject of mineral waters, it may perhaps be advisable to repeat 

here the definition of the term " mineral water." The definition will 

depend somewhat upon the point of view, whether it be that of the 

chemist or of the physician or of some one interested only in the commercial aspect of the subject. Water is itself a mineral and is rarely, 

if ever, found pare in its natural state. As Daubeny says, 1 the term 

"mineral water" in its most extended sense comprises every modification existing in nature of that universally diffused fluid, whether considered with reference to its sensible properties or to its action upon life. 

Usually, however, the term is restricted to such waters as contain an 

unusual amount of mineral matter or which are characterized by an unusual degree of heat, From a therapeutic point of view, all waters

that have an effect upon the animal body are mineral waters, no matter how feebly mineralized they may be. :

Where the springs have been improved or where the waters have been 

placed upon the market, the definition has been used in this paper in 

its widest sense, and therefore all such springs have been included in 

the tables. The mention of unimproved springs, however, has been restricted so far as possible to those of which the waters are mineralized 

to a more or less marked degree. A number of the springs included in 

the tables, although of considerable commercial importance, would 

perhaps be classed as indifferent when viewed in the light of their 

chemical composition. It must be remembered in this connection that 

chemical analyses will not always explain the effects of a mineral water.

deport oil the present state of our knowledge with respect to mineral and thermal 

waters, by Charles Daubeny, M. D., &c., in Sixth Report of the British Association 

for the Advancement of Science, p. 1, 1836.

(138)
«*ALB.] INTRODUCTION. 11

Many springs which have acquired great reputations for their medicinal 

effects are found, upon chemical examination, to be not so highly mineralized as many potable waters. That their medicinal value is recognized 

and that they are sources of profit to their owners, and also indirectly 

an addition to the wealth of the localities in which they are located, 

seem sufficient reasons why such springs should be noted. It is not 

proposed to discuss the relative merits of the various springs.

The tables of analyses appended to the lists under the different States 

will give an idea as to the chemical composition of the various waters. 

At present the facts as to the therapeutic action of our mineral waters 

are so meager and our knowledge of their effects is so inexact that it 

would be useless to attempt their classification from a therapeutic 

standpoint.

Neither are the data sufficient for a complete reference of American 

springs to a chemical scheme of classification. Of the more than eight 

thousand springs in our lists only a few more than eight hundred have 

been analyzed, so that the definite chemical composition of at least 

nine-tenths of the springs is still unknown.

The classification of mineral waters is a subject the consideration of 

which would require a separate paper, as its discussion is beset with 

many difficulties. All that is necessary here is to indicate the principal 

divisions, to one or another of which the springs in the lists have been 

assigned in a general way. First, the waters are characterized in regard 

to their temperatures, as either thermal or non-thermal, the temperature 

column in the tables indicating, in most cases, to which of these classes 

the springs belong. Secondly4 certain gases are usually present in the 

water of most springs, and these springs are indicated by the terms 

carbonated, sulphureted, carbureted, &c. They are also mentioned as 

chalybeate, alkaline, saline, calcic, silicious, or acid, according to their 

predominant or characteristic solid constituents, or by a combination 

of the terms when more than one is present in large quantity.

Brine springs and wells (with a few exceptions where they have been 

used for medicinal purposes) have been omitted from the tables, as they 

are generally utilized in the production and manufacture of salt, and 

are therefore uot usually applied to the ordinary uses of mineral springs. 

They also formed the subject of separate discussion in the Mineral 

Resources, 1S83-'S4, for which this paper was originally prepared.

Tables of analyses of the springs for each State and Territory, so far 

as they have been analyzed, have been compiled, and an attempt has 

been made to get the analyses in the most authentic form. The results 

were found stated in some thirty or more ways.

The limited time in which this paper was prepared did not permit the 

reduction of the analyses to one standard, and they are incorporated 

in the tables mainly as given in the sources from which they were taken, 

with the exception that where expressed in grains to fractions of the 

gallon they were increased to grains per gallon. When not otherwise 

stated in the tables, the gallon mentioned is the standard United States

(139)
12 . MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 31

or wine gallon of 231 cubic inches. Whenever there has been a choice 

between two or more forms preference has been given to the one expressed as grains per gallon. Although this is not the most scientific 

method, the majority of the analyses are so expressed. Of 819 analyses 

496 are stated in that form. It is popularly supposed to be the 

most intelligible to the greatest number of persons. But it may be questioned whether grains per gallon is an expression so readily understood 

as parts to the hundred thousand or parts in one million, &c. Comparatively few persons have very definite ideas as to how much a grain 

of any particular substance is. When the results of analyses are expressed as grains or parts in 100,1,000, 6,000, &c., it is only a matter of 

simple multiplication to bring them into comparable forms.

The figures in the tables, with few exceptions, have been carried 

out to but two decimal places. Only quantitative analyses are included, 

and where several analyses of a water have been made all are given, 

with the dates, as far as they could be ascertained.

It is impossible to mention here all those to whom thanks are due for 

data used in the preparation of the chemical tables,. In connection 

with each analysis is given the name of the analyst. A great many of 

the analyses have been taken from State geological reports, and particularly from reports of Government explorations in the case of the> 

Western States. Various correspondents and spring-owners throughout the whole country have contributed information under this head. 

Others to whom the writer is especially indebted are mentioned under 

the different State headings in the following pages.

The grouping of the mineral springs of the United States geographically has been by States, according to the scheme of subdivision proposed by Mr. Henry Gannett, geographer of the Tenth Census.1 This 

brings the springs of each region into the same section and seems preferable in the present case to an alphabetic arrangement,

The preliminary character of this paper must be kept in view, and it 

will be esteemed a favor if attention is called to any errors or cases of 

duplication that may have crept into these pages.

NORTHERN ATLANTIC STATES.

The Northern Atlantic States might, perhaps, be divided, so far as 

their geological features are concerned, into two divisions, viz, the New 

England States and those formerly included with the Middle States.

In the former the rocks are of the older formations, referable mainly 

to the Archean, sedimentary rocks occupying relatively small areas. 

To this is, perhaps, due the fact that the springs are, as a rule, somewhat less mineralized than are those of the remaining States. Alkaline 

waters are more frequent in the New England States than in the Middle

'Census Bulletin No. 277, November 1, 1881.
PEALE.j MAINE. 13

States; but, in both, sulphureted and chalybeate springs predominate, 

forming more than one-half the whole number.

The Northern Atlantic States naturally have the greatest number of 

waters that are used commercially. This section has the greatest population in proportion to its area, has long been settled, and is wealthiest. All these are reasons why we might expect to find mineral waters 

used to a greater extent.

MAINE.

The mineral springs of Maine belong to the classes of alkaline, saline, 

and chalybeate waters, the last predominating. Many are sulphureted and a few carbonated. None is thermal, the highest temperature attained, so far as we can learn, being but 50° Fahr. Most of the 

temperatures range from 40° Fahr. to 46° Fahr.

The amount of mineral matter contained.in the waters is usually 

small and some of the waters would be classed as chemically indifferent. A considerable number are utilized, both commercially and as 

places of resort. Dr. Goodale's "report on the mineral waters of 

Maine," in the sixth annual report of Professor Hitchcock to the Maine 

board of agriculture, made in 1861, is about the only publication in 

which the mineral waters of the State are treated of systematically. 

Since that date, however, a number of springs have been discovered, 

and several of them brought into prominent notice, while others, then 

used as resorts, have fallen into disuse.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Mr. Gr. W. Hawes, in Hitchcock's Geology of New Hampshire, says 

there are a large number of mineral springs in various parts of the 

State and that chalybeate waters are the most common. He mentions 

those of Pittsfield, Amherst, and Unity as the best known. Walton's 

book gives four localities. Pepper's list includes nine. In the present 

catalogue the number is increased to eleven.

A fair proportion are utilized commercially or as resorts, although 

as a rule the springs are not highly mineralized. In this respect they 

agree with most of the springs in the other New England States.

VERMONT.

In general the springs of Vermont are much like those of Maine and 

New Hampshire, except that they usually contain a larger proportion 

of mineral matter. This may be due in part to the fact that the rocks 

through which the springs rise belong more frequently to the sedimentary series. Sulphureted springs are most abundant. Of the 

springs whose character is indicated on the list, nearly all are included 

in this class. Calcareous tufa is found in connection with many of the

springs.

Prof. Edward Hitchcock, in a letter to Prof. C. B. Adams/ in 1846, 

describes a thermal spring at Bennington. He does not give the temperature, but compares it with the spring at Williamstown, Mass., 

which is only slightly thermal. Clarendon, Alburgh, and Highgate 

springs appear to be the best known springs, although others are also 

largely used. The Clarendon springs are said to have been used 

medicinally in 1776, Alburgh has been a place of resort since 1816, 

and the use of Highgate dates back to 1840.

MASSACHUSETTS.

The State of Massachusetts is not remarkable for the occurrence of 

mineral springs. The list contains twenty-one localities. In most lists 

only two are included, viz, Hopkinton Springs and the Berkshire Soda 

Springs. The former was once an important place of resort, but at 

present its springs are not utilized to any considerable extent. Brookfield and Shutesbury were also once much frequented.

Professor Hitchcock, in the reports on the geology of Massachusetts 

made in 1833 and 1849, says that chalybeate springs are common 

throughout the State, occurring in nearly every town, usually rising in 

low ground containing bog iron. Many of these springs have a local 

reputation and a few are used commercially. Such analyses as have 

been made show that as a rule the waters are not highly mineralized. 

A mineral spring near Williamstown is said to be slightly thermal and 

in the extreme southwestern part of the State, near Mount Washington, there is reported to be another similar spring.

RHODE ISLAND.

The record of mineral springs for Ehode Island is somewhat meager 

and so far as we can learn the springs are of comparatively little importance. It is said that, in connection with the spring near Pawtucket, 

there was in operation for a number of years an extensive water-cure 

and medical establishment.

There may possibly be a few springs in the State that have escaped 

notice, and if so the waters are likely to be somewhat chalybeate.

The mineral springs of Connecticut are comparatively unimportant, 

at least in point of number, and, so far as known, they are feebly 

mineralized. They are mainly weak chalybeates, occurring under the 

same circumstances as do those of Massachusetts, in deposits of bogiron ore or in connection with iron pyrites. Some are also feebly sulphureted. Although the majority are unimproved and but few are used 

commercially, many have considerable local reputation. Prof. C. W. 

Shepard in 1837 speaks of the springs at Stafford as being the most 

important in the State, and this is still the case. This locality is the 

only one given by Walton. Many of the places once resorted to are 

now abandoned. The present list is made up from Professor Shepard's 

report, supplemented by information acquired by correspondence with

various persons in the State.

NEW YORK.

New York is distinguished among her sister States for the number 

of her mineral springs. On the list she is credited with a greater number of localities than any other State, which may be due to the fact 

that attention has been more drawn to the subject of mineral springs in 

New York than in most other States, probably on account of the commercial success of the Saratoga Springs. It is due also, in part, to the 

fact that the springs have been pretty thoroughly studied and so many 

of them subjected to chemical examination. The list given by Professor 

Beck in Vol. Ill of the New York Geological Eeports was very complete 

for the State at the time it was published (1842). Since then many 

springs have been discovered. Some considered unimportant at that

time have since been developed, while others used as resorts have been 

abandoned. The springs are of great variety. The majority of them 

are sulphureted. As to the solid mineral contents, saline and chalybeate 

springs predominate. The Mghest temperature reached by any of the 

springs is at Lebanon, where the thermal spring attains 75° F. Several 

of the springs at Saratoga and Battston have temperatures that exceed 

the mean annual temperatures of those places, and are, therefore, in a 

strict sense, thermal springs.

Another point of interest in relation to the New York mineral springs 

is the occurrence of springs containing free sulphuric acid, as springs of 

this class are somewhat rare. The most celebrated spring of this class 

in New York is probably the Oak Orchard spring.

The Saratoga Springs are the most widely known of American springs 

and have many namesakes in all parts of the United States, being in

as a place of resort, the first hotel for the accommodation of visitors 

having been opened there in 1774.

MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

NEW JEKSEY.

This State is not conspicuous for the number of her mineral springs. 

Schooley's Mountain Spring is the only well-known resort.

The water of a spring* at Woodbridge, in Middlesex County, was at 

one tiine bottled for sale, but so far as reported none of the waters of 

the State4s on sale at present. Unimproved weak chalybeate springs 

doubtless exist in many portions of the State, but they are at present 

of comparatively little importance.

A number of artesian wells have been fsuuk at Newark, Paterson. 

Jersey City, and in other parts of the State, and the water in many of 

them is quite highly mineralized. Several of the analyses are included 

in the table. So far as known, they are not utilized medicinally.

44 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

PENNSYLVANIA.

Very little has ever been published with especial reference to Pennsylvania mineral waters. Walton's Mineral Springs of the United States 

and Canada (edition 'of 1883) credits the State with eight locations. In 

Moorman's book of 1873 thirteen are mentioned, while Pepper's list of 

1880 contains thirty-two. In the present list forty-four are included, 

of which sixteen are places of Resort and five are used commercially. 

Several of the springs have been popular resorts for years. Bedford 

Springs has been so utilized since 1804. Next to these the Gettysburg 

Springs are probably as well known as any other in the State. Cresson, 

Minnequa, and Blossburg Springs arc also among the most important. 

Tbe Bath Spring at Bristol, which was a place of considerable resort in 

Revolutionary times, has so .declined in importance that few are aware 

even of its existence. Some of the springs, like those atEphrata, Yellow Springs, and Caledonia Springs, are summer resorts, but the waters 

can scarcely be called mineral waters, as they are merely notable for 

their purity and the desirability of their situation.

The Reports of the Second Geological Survey present much information in relation to the mineral springs of Pennsylvania, and contain 

many analyses, made mostly by Dr. Genth. These have been drawn 

upon and form the majority of the analyses given in the table following 

the list of springs.

The chalybeate springs, as in most of the neighboring States, outnumber the others. There are a large uumber.of sulphureted waters 

and one spring (Blossburg) is known to contain free sulphuric acid. The 

Perry County Spring is the only warm spring. In most of the books 

the temperature of this spring is given as from 70° to 72° Fatir., but 

information derived directly from the spring owner gives it as 66° Fahr.

50 MINERAL SPRINGS OP THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

SOUTHERN ATLANTIC STATES.

The general geologic features of the Southern Atlantic States are very 

much like those of the Northern Atlantic division and the mineral springs 

are also similar. Sulphureted waters and chalybeate springs are most 

prominent in both. There is; however, this difference : thermal springs, 

which are of infrequent occurrence in the northern section, are quite 

numerous in the southern. This is probably due to the fact that faulted 

strata are more prevalent in the Southern Appalachians than in the 

Northern, which recent observations by members of the TJnitecl States 

Geological Survey (most of them still unpublished) seem to indicate is 

the case. The connection of many noted European springs with dislocated strata has long been known, and Prof. W. B. Eogers also called 

attention to the same state of things in Virginia, in his memoir On the 

Connection of Thermal Springs in Virginia with Anticlinal Axes and 

Faults, published (1840-1842) in the Transactions of the Association of 

American Geologists and Naturalists. 

The Southern Atlantic States have more springs that are utilized for 

places of resort than has any other section, except the Southern Central States.

Virginia stands at the head of the section in this respect. Only one 

State (Tennessee) in any other section has more, and in the latter case 

probably more of the localities are used simply as local resorts.

A large number of the springs in this section are still unknown so far 

as a definite statement of their chemical constituents is concerned, but 

every year adds to the list of analyses.

TEALK.] DELAWARE MARYLAND. 51

DELAWARE.

From the few reports of geological surveys of Delaware we learn that 

chalybeate springs are numerous, as would naturally be expected from 

its geological structure.

They are, however, of comparatively:: little importance, only one, so 

far as learned, having ever been utilized as a place of resort, viz, the 

Brandy wine Chalybeate Spring, which has long been abandoned.

The table includes all the springs of which mention could be obtained 

by correspondence.

MARYLAND.

The general works on mineral springs give no space to Maryland and 

Dr. Pepper's list includes but one locality, viz, the Garroll White Sulphur Springs of Alleghany County, which at present, so far as we can 

learn, is not.resorted.to.

There are several localities that were once used extensively, but have 

fallen into disuse.

The proximity of many of the springs to those of Virginia has probably caused them to be neglected. Still there are several places of resort, and the water of one the Strontia Well of Brooklaridville is 

used commercially. In the eastern part of the State the springs are 

mainly chalybeate, the majority of them unimproved and unimportant.

54 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. IuuLL.32. 

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

A number of the wells and springs within the limits of the District 

are chalybeate; but none, even the strongest, is of much importance 

and the number is so small that no detailed list has been made.

At Uniontown> or Anacostia, opposite Washington, and also near Le 

Droit Park, in the northeastern part, chalybea'te springs exist. A-wellon Louisiana avenue, between Ninth and Tenth streets, in Washington, 

is said to be quite strongly impregnated with iron. There are several 

other localities within the city limits that are said to have chalybeate 

springs or wells. No analyses have been made.

VIRGINIA.

Virginia occupies the same position among the Southern Atlantic 

States that New York does among the Northern Atlantic States, in respect to both the number and the variety of her mineral springs. More 

than fifty localities are places of resortj some of them among the mostfamous in the country, and the waters of more than twenty are used 

commercially. Although the spring area proper is in the Appalachian 

region, mineral springs are also found in the more level country that 

stretches towards the coast from the foot of the Blue Uidge. Here the 

springs are largely chalybeate, as would naturally be expected. The 

thermal springs are confined to the mountain region. A large proportion of the springs are sulphureted, as is the case with so many springs 

in the adjoining States..

The literature of the Virginia springs is quite extensive. Prof. W. 

B. Eogers, in his geological report on the State, devotes considerable 

space to the mineral springs. Since his report a number of books have 

been published, among them those of Burke and of Moorman. These

have all been consulted in the preparation of the following table. 

Boyd's Eesources of Southwestern Virginia, published in 1881, has 

also furnished much information; but by far the greatest amount 

has been obtained in answer to circulars and letters sent to various 

portions of the State. Eighty-seven analyses are given in the table, 

the number of springs analyzed being seventy-five, which is only about 

one-quarter of the springs included in the list. This number is, however, slightly greater than the proportion in New York.

WEST VIRGINIA.

WEST VIRGINIA.

69

West Virginia is noted for its mineral springs. Berkeley Springs is 

one of the oldest resorts in the United States, the town of Bath, named 

after the English watering place, having been laid out in 1777, while 

Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs, which are so well known throughout the country, have been used medicinally since 1778 or 1779. The 

best-known springs are in the eastern and southeastern portions of the 

State, especially in ,the Alleghauy Mountains. The western counties 

also have a number of important springs and mineral wells, and when 

the central part of the State becomes better known many springs will 

probably be added to the list. The general characters of the waters 

are like those of Virginia. The springs are thermal and cold, saline, 

chalybeate, carbonated, sulphureted, and acid. The saline and sulplmreted waters predominate,

74 MINERAL SPEINGS OF THE UNITED STATES.

NORTH CAEOLINA.

[BULL. 32.

North Carolina enjoys the distinction of being one of the two States 

on the Atlantic coast that possess hot springs. Usually her mineral 

springs are not different from those occurring along the coast and in 

the region of the Appalachians in the neighboring States. As in Virginia, chalybeate and sulphuretecl springs are most numerous. The 

books usually credit the State with four or five localities. The present list includes 66, of which a fair proportion are utilized as places ot 

resort, while many have well-established local reputations. Seven of 

the springs are used cornrnercialty. Analyses are given of 18 springs.

For a considerable number of these thanks are due to Prof. Charles 

W. Dabney, jr., of the State agricultural experiment station. ' Others 

are taken from Professor Kerr's report on the geology of North Carolina. The greatest part of the information as to the spring localities 

has been derived from direct correspondence with the spring-owners.

SOUTH CAROLINA.

Chalybeate springs are said to abound iu South Carolina and many 

of them are resorted to locally to a considerable extent. Gleun Springs 

and the Charleston Artesian Well are well known beyond the State 

limits. The latter, with several other artesian wells iu the same city, 

is thermal, the temperature of the waters being almost high enough to 

class them as hot. They are said to possess medicinal properties. So 

far as learned, only the Glenu Springs, Garrett Spring, and Chick's 

Springs are at present of commercial importance. The Williamston 

Springs were once a fa\rorite resort.

GEORGIA. .

In the few general works on the mineral springs of the United States 

very little space is given to Georgia. Only five .or six localities are 

usually mentioned, whereas there are at least twenty-six that are. more 

or less improved as places of resort. Janes's Hand-Book of the State of 

Georgia, published in 1876, enumerates twenty-three. In the Manual 

of Georgia, 1878, the statement is made that the mineral springs of the 

State are innumerable and in variety correspond with the multifarious 

ores. Our list includes fifty-six, most of them chalybeate and sulpliureted. The-best description of Georgia mineral springs is found in 

the pamphlet by Dr. J. E. Duggan, published at Macon in 1SS1. It 

io confined for the most part to the improved springs and describes 

altogether twenty-eight. The greater part of the analyses given in 

the tables arc derived from this pamphlet.

FLORIDA.

The springs of Florida are remarkable for their great size rather 

than for the quantity of. mineral matter they contain. Some of the 

streams proceeding from them are large enough to float steamboats. 

Very few of the waters have been analyzed, but so far as known, when 

mineralized, sulphureted hydrogen characterizes the majority of them. 

Little has been published and definite information is difficult to ob- 

'tain. Most of the springs in the southern and eastern portions of the 

State would be classified as weak sulphur springs. In the northeastern portion of the State the waters appear to be more frequently chalybeate. Most of the springs of which the temperatures are given are 

probably thermal, as they doubtless exceed the mean annual tempera- 

 ture of their localities. The mean annual temperature of Saint Mark's,- 

as given by the Signal Office, is G6°.3 F.; Jacksonville, G9°.2 F.; Pcnsacola, G80.5 F.; and Cedar Keys, 71° F.; while Punta Bassa has 73°.G 

F. and Key West 77.°* F. The temperatures of the Florida springs 

are remarkably uniform-summer and winter. 1 They are utilized mainly 

as winter resorts, and, so far as learned, none of the waters is on sale.

hold about the same proportion to the whole number of springs as in 

the South Atlantic States. The number of saline springs, however, is 

increased and the thermal springs naturally are fewer in number. A 

large part of the area of this division is occupied by comparatively 

recent formations; yet, in the northeastern part and in the western, 

carboniferous rocks, with the underlying sedimentaries, are well developed, and these rocks are almost always prolific in mineral springs. 

The Hot Springs of Arkansas are the most prominent of the thermal 

springs. It must be stated here that the returns from the various 

States, in answer to the questions sent out, are very unequal both as to 

the extent and the exactness of the information conveyed. In some 

States (as Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and Arkansas) the geological surveys of the State appear to have paid considerable attention 

to the subject, and the general public attention has therefore been 

turned more to the subject and data are more readily obtained.

In Mississippi and especially in Louisiana it has been more difficult 

to get definite information. No geological surveys of these States have 

been made very recently. Both States, however, have many springs of 

excellent mineral water.

Texas is being so rapidly developed as to its resources and so many

portions of the State are being- newly settled.that our list for that State 

will doubtless be considerably increased in the near future.

In regard to the springs utilized as places of resort and for commercial purposes, the.Southern Central States compare favorably with the 

Southern Atlantic States.

ALABAMA.

Although but few of the Alabama mineral waters are used commercially, there are many springs that are important as places of resort, 

and several are quite well known throughout the country at large. 

Bladen Springs, Bailey Springs, and Blount Springs are the ones generally noted in the boobs. The following list is made up partly from 

data contained in the geological reports of M. Tuomey and of Eugene 

A. Smith, but a great many localities have been added as the result of 

Correspondence with persons in all parts of the State. Chalybeate and 

sulphureted springs are most numerous and are not confined to any 

portion of the State nor to one geological formation. Two of the best 

known sulphur springs Bladon and Tallahatta rise in the Tertiary, 

while Blount Springs, equally well known, and also sulphureted, are in 

the Coal Measures.. Sulphur springs also abound in the northern counties, Avhose rocks belong to the Subcarboniferous limestones. Artesian 

wells are said to be numerous in the region underlaid by the rotten limestone of the Cretaceous. Such wells are usually highly charged with 

salts of iron, lime, magnesia, and soda. Comparatively few of the Alabama springs have been analyzed. The analyses presented here have 

been taken from various sources. Thanks are due to Prof. W. C. Stubbs1, 

State chemise, who has furnished many of them.

MISSISSIPPI.

The mineral springs of Mississippi are numerous, and, like those of 

the neighboring States, are largely chalybeate. In certain localities 

the greater portion of the wells and springs are highly mineralized. 

Waile's report on the geology of Mississippi st.ates that, along the 

whole extent of the Yazoo and Tallahatchec Valleys and the whole 

front below, on the Mississippi Eiver, copious springs issue from the 

bluffs, the water flowing from beds of ocherous earth and pyritous 

clays. The water is highly charged with sulphate of iron and its 

habitual use is very pernicious. Many of the artesian wells of the

State arc also mineralized, Prof, E, W, Hilgard, in his geological report for 1860, says: "Few neighborhoods in the State are without a 

mineral spring or well of some kind, good, bad, or indifferent." Many 

of these springs have extensive local reputations and appear to be 

used somewhat indiscriminately by the residents for medicinal purposes. Only a few of the springs have any commercial importance. 

Ocean Springs and luka Springs are the best known resorts. Cooper's 

Well was well known before the war and, with, others, is being revived 

as a pleasure resort.

TENNESSEE.

The mineral springs of Tennessee are numerous and occur in all portions of the State. The geological formations being the same as those 

of the adjacent States, especially of Virginia, Kentucky, Alabama, and 

Mississippi, the mineral springs are naturally of the same general character. Chalybeate and sulphureted springs, therefore, predominate. 

Killebrew and Safford's Eesources of Tennessee probably gives as complete an enumeration of the springs as any work published. The list 

presented here is largely indebted to it, and in addition has had the 

supervision of Prof. James M. Safford, State geologist of Tennessee. 

Acknowledgment is also due to him. for copies of analyses made by 

himself and by Prof. 1ST. T. Lupton.

A large number of the springs are used as resorts. Many that were 

so frequented prior to the war have fallen into disuse, and other springs

Bull. 32 7 (225)

of extensive local reputation are still unimproved. Notwithstanding 

the number of springs utilized, complete analyses of comparatively few 

have been made:

KENTUCKY.

The State of Kentucky occupies a prominent place as a mineral spring 

region, not only from the number of springs, but also on account of 

the quality of the waters. Some of them are among the most remarkable in the country and many are on sale in the East, West, North, and

South. Such are the celebrated Blue Lick water and that of the Crab 

Orchard springs. There are said to be two great water beds in Kentucky, viz: th'e calciferous sandstone, underlying the Silurian rocks, 

and the great sandstone formation at the base of the Coal Measures, 

and any localities in counties within the range of those formations 

(Silurian and Carboniferous), if not already possessed of mineral springs, 

can have artesian mineral wells by boring from 150 to 300 feet. Still 

the mineral waters do not appear to be confined to these beds, although 

possibly more abundant in them. Our list mentions springs as occurring in nearly two-thirds of the counties, and the remaining counties 

are not confined to any one portion of the State; so that it is possible 

that, if the information relating to them were more complete, they also 

might be included among those having mineral springs.

The great majority of the springs are still unimproved, although many 

are used as local resorts, especially during the summer season. The 

reports of the Kentucky geological survey are quite complete in the

(234)
KENTUCKY. 107

description of the mineral springs of the State, and Dr. Peters's chemical reports on them have furnished a large proportion of. the analyses 

given in the tables in this paper. Davies's report on the resources of 

the State has also furnished considerable data.

ARKANSAS.

Among mineral spring States Arkansas occupies a prominent place. 

The reputation of her famous Hot Springs, which have been more or 

less improved and utilized for medicinal purposes since the early part of 

the century, has attracted attention to the subject throughout the State 

and has led the people to appreciate the value of their springs.

Although a large proportion of the springs have been improved, 

very few appear to have been subjected to quantitative chemical analysis. Only five are given in the table. The list of springs is based 

mainly upon data obtained from Oweus's geological reports of Arkansas, 

supplemented, as in the case of most of the other lists, by information 

derived directly from persons interested in the various springs. Of the 

springs whose general character is known, probably half are chalybeate 

and nearly that number are also sulphureted.

Only about five are utilized commercially at present

INDIAN TERRITORY.

The list of springs for Indian Territory is doubtless incomplete, as 

very considerable portions of the Territory are but little known,, especially in the western and northwestern sections.

Although several places are mentioned on the list as resorts, they 

are as a rule unimproved and are used principally during the summer 

by persons who camp near them in order to use the waters for medicinal 

purposes.

LOUISIANA.

Available data as to Louisiana mineral springs are meager and the 

list given here is presumably incomplete. It is mainly compiled from 

information contained in letters from various portions of the State.

No analyses are presented, but the springs are probably similar to 

those of Mississippi, as the geological formations of the two States are 

largely the same. Salt or brine springs prevail in certain portions of 

the State, being common in Natchitoches and Eapides.

None of the medicinal waters is used commercially and those springs 

utilized as resorts appear to be mainly of local importance.

Walton describes only the Be Soto Springs and the White Sulphur 

Springs of Catahoula.

TEXAS.

Walton's Mineral Springs of the United States gives three localities

for Texas and Pepper's list includes five, There are, however, about

twenty localities that are places of resort and at least seven the waters 

of which are on sale. Besides there are a great many springs at present 

unimproved, but which have local reputations for the curative effects 

of their waters. Mineral springs exist in at least thirty counties of the 

State.

The list as given here is made up partly from various maps and handbooks of Texas, supplemented by data derived from correspondence 

with persons in the localities thus obtained. The majority of the springs 

are still unanalyzed, but sulphureted waters appear to be most numerous. The occurrence of free sulphuric acid in so many springs is notable. Lampasas Springs, Burdett's Sour Mineral Wells, the Sour Lake 

Springs, and Hynson's Iron Springs appear to be those most widely 

known.

PEALK.J NORTHERN CENTRAL STATES. 129

NORTHERN CENTRAL STATES.

The broad areas of Carboniferous rocks with underlying Devonian 

and Silurian strata that are spread over so large a portion of the 

Northern Central States would lead us to look in this section for mineral springs similar to those found along the western side of the Appalachians in the Atlantic States and in the northern portion of the 

Southern Central Division. Here, as in those sections, chalybeate, 

saline, and sulphureted springs predominate. Calcic springs are 

more numerous than in the other sections, while thermal springs are 

inconspicuous, such waters as are referable to this class being derived 

almost entirely from artesian borings.

As we proceed toward the northern part of the section and reach the 

inetamorphic areas, the springs become more like those of the New 

England States.

The waters used commercially are second in number only to those 

so used in the Northern Atlantic States. A fair proportion of the localities are resorts, and we may expect the number so used to increase 

when the newer parts of the Northwestern and Western States are 

more thickly populated. Every year adds to the number of improved 

springs in these portions of the Northern Central States. Nebraska, 

at present, is the only State in the section for which we are unable to 

give a supposably complete list of mineral springs.

130 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

OHIO.

The list of Ohio mineral springs is based upon material derived from 

the State geological reports. The list thus obtained, supplemented by 

information obtained through correspondence, was submitted to the inspection of Prof. Edward Orton, of Columbus, Ohio. Speaking of the 

list, in a letter, he says, "It might'be indefinitely extended or it might 

be considerably reduced." Eeferring to the belt of black Devonian 

shale that traverses the State from Lake Erie to the Ohio Valley, he 

says: "This formation as a rule yields but little water. The springs 

issuing from it, except at the very base, are weak, but they carry iron 

and sulphur almost everywhere. In Adams County, for example, if 

there is one mineral spring there are thousands. Four are credited on 

the list. One of these is a place of resort, but the others are identical 

in character with hundreds of others on all sides. They have come into 

recognition possibly through the superior intelligence or energy of their 

proprietors, who call attention to them in one way or another. What is 

true of Adams County is equally true of Scioto, Pike, Boss, and Pickaway, and to a less extent of the northern counties that hold the shale. 

The list in Delaware County might be increased to hundreds. The 

springs that issue from the base of the formation often have good 

volume, and these make a group by themselves (Mineral Springs, 

Adams County; Campbell's Spring, Pike County, i&c.). Very much the 

same line of remark applies to the so-called chalybeate springs, derived 

from the drift formation. * * * There are considerable districts in 

which a bed of bog-ore underlies the drift beds, and all the wells and 

springs in these districts might be called chalybeate."

Professor Ortoil thinks also that if all the calcic waters were included 

the list might be almost indefinitely expanded. As already intimated, 

we have included Only those springs mentioned in the geological reports 

or of which definite information was secured by letter.

A complete list Tfrould perhaps include the saline and brine springs 

of the State, but they have been considered in another place.1 A small 

proportion of the springs are utilized as resorts and the waters of a 

very limited number are used commercially.

INDIANA.

With the exception of Missouri, Indiana is credited in our list with 

more mineral-spring localities than any other of the* Northern Central 

States, The geological formation being the same as in the neighboring 

States, we naturally find that the springs are also similar, and, as in 

Ohio, Illinois, and Kentucky, the sulphureted and chalybeate waters 

are most abundant. About the same number of localities are utilized 

for resorts as in Ohio and about as many of the waters are used commercially. We are able to present twice as many analyses as in the 

case of Ohio, but there are still some twenty-four springs the chemical 

characters of which are unknown. Brine springs exist in various portions of the State, but do not seem to be so numerous as in Ohio. The 

springs mentioned in the State geological reports of Prof. E. T. Cox 

form the basis of the list, and from the same source also many of the 

analyses have been taken.

142 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

ILLINOIS.

The State of Illinois appears to have a fair proportion of mineral 

springs, although so fa<r as known very few are utilized either commercially or as resorts. Chalybeate, sulphureted, and saline waters predominate. Brine springs are found in a numb.er of counties.

The most prominent source drawn upon in the preparation of the list 

given here has been the Economical Geology of Illinois, by A. H. 

Wortheu, published in 1882, which republishes from the original six 

volumes on the geology of the State all that relates to its economical 

geology. Comparatively few of the Illinois mineral waters have been 

chemically analyzed.

PttALB.] MICHIGAN. 145

MICHIGAN.

The mineral waters of Michigan are derived to a great extent from 

wells, which are nevertheless locally termed mineral springs. Many of 

these wells are artesian and were frequently sunk originally for other 

purposes than to find mineral waters. The artesian borings are especially in the corniferous limestone and the Huron group (Devonian). 

Prof. Alexander Winchell says: " The conformation of the strata has retained all their original soluble constituents; hence all artesian waters 

in the State, save some outlying leached-out patches of the Parma sandstone, will be found mineralized." The waters are classed as saline, 

carbonated, and sulphureted. The saline and sulphureted springs predominate. The brines of Michigan (which are not included in our list) 

form an important factor in the industries of the State, nearly half of

the salt product of the United States being credited to Michigan. The

supply is derived mainly from artesian borings. So-called magnetic 

springs are prominent. Professor Winchell says their waters are not 

themselves magnetic, but that marked magnetic phenomena manifest 

themselves about the wells.

The list, as given here, has been drawn principally from State geological reports and from an essay on the magnetic and mineral springs 

of the State, by Dr. Stiles Kennedy.

WISCONSIN.

The mineral waters of Wisconsin are valuable. Many of tlieni have 

wide reputations and are largely sold in all portions of the country. 

They are principally alkaline, chalybeate, and calcic. The list is based 

mainly on the Wisconsin geological reports and has also had the supervision of Prof. T. C. Chamberliu, formerly State geologist. A number 

of springs have been developed since the publication of the State reports 

and are here included.

158 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. fnuti* 32.

' . MINNESOTA.

The list of Minnesota springs has been compiled almost entirely from 

Prof. N. ED. Winchell's reports on the geology and natural history of 

the State. No previous list credits the State with any mineral springs. 

In fact they are only beginning to attract attention. Although several 

have some local reputation, as yet only two are utilized to any considerable extent as resorts, and the water of only one is found on sale. Two 

salt wells have been developed in the extreme northwestern part of the 

State, and they have been included in the list. Big Stone Lake, which 

is an expansion of Minnesota Eiver, has also been included, as the 

analysis shows that the water contains a large amount of sulphates 

and considerable silica.

DAKOTA.

Information as to mineral waters in Dakota is meager and the data obtained are insufficient for the compilation of a very complete list of the 

springs and wells that are known to be mineralized. The Territory hns 

not been sufficently developed to have much attention directed to the subject. In some of the southeastern counties are springs and wells in which 

the water ia said to be chalybeate, but correspondence with persons
160 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNlTEt> STATES. [BULL. 51

in that section does not develop,much in relation to them beyond the 

fact that they are unimproved. There are said also to be salt wells 

in the northeastern part of the Territory. In ^7a^ious portions, also, 

alkali is quite abundant in the soil, and in such regions the water passing through it is naturally alkaline. Such localities are found along the 

Little Missouri Eiver near the crossing of the Northern Pacific Kailroad 

and in the vicinity of the Black Hills. Newton and Jenney,'in their report on the geology of the Black Hills, say: "Springs issuing from the 

black clay shales of the Cretaceous on Beaver Creek were found to be 

strongly acid and astringent to the taste, turning blue litmus red and 

probably containing alum and free sulphuric acid. Similar springs 

were reported to be found near Buffalo Gate, on the southeastern side 

of Black Hills." Springs in the Carboniferous rocks of this region are 

naturally hard, but would scarcely be classed with mineral springs. 

The Chicago and Northwestern Kailroad Company have had a number 

of wells and springs on the line of their road analyzed, and several of 

them are mineralized. These have been included in the list and the 

analyses are given in the table following the list. '

IOWA.

Mineral springs are not of common occurrence in Iowa, although many 

wells, both artesian and ordinary, are frequently mineralized. Neither 

Wsilton nor Moorman mentions any of the springs of the State. The 

present list is mainly the result of direct correspondence with the different spring-owners and local authorities., The springs are of the same 

general character as in the adjoining States. The occurrence of acid 

springs is interesting from a geological point of view. Colfax Mineral 

Spring is probably the most widely known of the places of resort.

164 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES.

MISSOURI.

[BULL. 32.

This State is rich in mineral springs, which are of great variety. 

Only about one-fifth of them are improved, bnt among the latter are 

several that are well known throughout the State.

As far as known the springs are very similar to those of the neighboring States, saline, sulphureted, and chalybeate springs predominating.

Many of the counties have salt springs or wells, and at one time the 

production of salt from them was a considerable industry. The list of 

springs given here has been compiled mainly from the State geological 

reports and from various hand-books. The present status of the various 

springs has been determined, whenever practicable, by direct correspondence with the spring-owners.

PKALE.] NEBRASKA KANSAS. 171

NEBRASKA.

The data at hand in relation to Nebraska are insufficient for any extended list of its mineral springs or wells. Springs of any kind are of 

comparatively infrequent occurrence in most portions of the State, and 

especially so in the western part.

In many places the \vaters reached by wells are doubtless somewhat 

mineralized, as in the neighboring State of Kansas and i n Dakota. Salt; 

springs are found in the southeastern part of the State and also near 

the Elkhorn and Loup Elvers. There is a saline artesian well at Lincoln. 

So far as can be learned, none of the springs or wells is used medicinally at present.

Remarks.

KANSAS.

Permanent springs of any kind are said to be somewhat infrequent 

in Kansas. The mineral waters of the State are derived principally 

from ordinary wells and artesian borings. Salt or brine wells are quite 

.common in certain portions of the State and are extensively used for 

the production of salt for local use. Chalybeate-springs are found in 

various places, but the mineral waters are mainly'saline and sulphosaline. They have been developed to a certain extent and many of 

them have considerable local reputation for medicinal effects. Prof. E. 

H. S. Bailey, writing of the artesian wells of the State, in the Keport 

of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture for the quarter ending December 31, 1885, says that "shallow wells, especially in the eastern part of 

the State, furnish hard water impregnated with sulphate of lime and 

carbonates of lime and magnesia; and as the well goes into deeper 

strata the chlorides increase and the sulphates decrease."

Among the places of resort the Great Spirit Spring, Baxter Medical 

Springs, and Geuda Springs are well known.

The list of springs given here is probably incomplete* and will doubtless be considerably enlarged in the future.

WESTERN STATES AND TERRITORIES.

The first thing to attract attention, in a general survey of the mineral 

springs of the West, is the far greater prevalence of thermal springs 

in them when compared with other sections. The Western States, as 

already defined, contain only a little over 39 per cent, of the total area 

of the country, and yet within their limits are found more than 80 per 

cent, of its known thermal springs. This proportion is likely to be 

increased, as the Western States present the best field for future discoveries. When we consider the individual springs, even manifestly 

imperfect as are our lists in respect to the total number, the contrast 

appears even greater. Not only is the number of hot and warm springs 

greatly in excess of that in other portions of the country, but the thermal phenomena are overwhelmingly greater in intensity. In no other 

section are there any manifestations equal to those exhibited by the 

geysers of the Yellowstone National Park.

(303)
176 MINEEAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

Mr. G. K. Gilbert1 has called attention to the fact that the geological 

relations appear to accord with this hydro-thermal contrast between the 

Western States and the otBer divisions of the country. He refers the 

greater heat in the former to local uprisings of the geiso-thermal planes, 

together with progressive corrugation, the intensity of the phenomena 

being heightened by the intrusion and extrusion of lavas.

The connection of hot and warm springs with volcanic rocks, with 

uplifted mountain chains, and with dislocations or fractures of strata 

has long been recognized. Our Western States present all these conditions. Here are the most elevated portions of our country and with 

the upward movement still in progress. A single glance at the general 

geologic map of the United States suffices to show that in this portion 

of our domain evidences exist of most intense volcanic activity, both 

past and present.

The Western States have been subdivided into four divisions, viz, 

the Eocky Mountain region, the Plateau region, the Great Basin, and 

the Pacific Coast. In the Eocky Mountain States, mountain corrugation is probably the primary cause of the hot springs found, although 

igneous areas are not wanting, as notably in the case of the Yellowstone 

National Park, in Wyoming. In the Pacific Coast region the uplifts of 

the Sierras and Coast Eanges are accompanied by igneous rocks, and 

as we proceed northward, volcanic outbursts form a striking feature. 

Almost all the springs on our Alaska list are warm or hot and in Alaska 

we find the volcanic forces still active.

In the Great Basin, mountain corrugation is subordinate to the faulting of the strata as a cause of hot and warm springs. Mr. I. C. Eussell 

describes this region as follows: 2

u The whole immense region lying between the Sierra Nevada and 

Eocky Mountain systems has been broken by a multitude of fractures.

having an approximately north and south trend, that divide the region 

into long, narrow, orographic blocks."

With these profound faults hot springs are associated, and a map of 

the hot springs of the Great Basin would be, to a great extent, also a 

map of the lines of displacement. With these displacements also are 

associated volcanic rocks. In the plateau region again we find a similar association of faulted strata and the former outpouring of igneous 

rocks.

Although thermal springs are so characteristic of the Western States, 

other classes are not wanting. Alkaline, saline, chalybeate, and calcic 

springs are numerous; many of them are carbonated and still more are 

sulphnreted. Silicious springs, not prominent in other sections, are 

found abundantly in the areas of hot springs. »

The Western States having been more recently settled, we find that 

fewer springs have been improved and developed than in the east. 

Still the number of resorts is fairly large, and more waters are used commercially than would be expected in view of the newness of the country.

The number of analyses that have been made is, however, still comparatively small.

MONTANA.

The Territory of Montana possesses many important and interesting 

mineral springs, although little has ever been published in relation to 

them, especially in general works on the subject. This is due partly to 

two causes: Montana was until recently so isolated that comparatively 

little was known of the Territory. Again, the proximity of the Yellowstone National Park and the fact that the readiest access to it is through 

Montana have attracted more attention to the wonderful phenomena 

of the geyser regions, and they have overshadowed the lesser springs. 

The majority of the springs are thermal, and they are found mainly in 

the western and more mountainous portions of the Territory. They 

are sulphureted, carbonated, alkaline, saline, chalybeate, and calcic; 

Among the carbonated springs is one closely resembling the celebrated 

Apolliuaris spring of Prussia. Yery few analyses have been made, 

and the character of more than half the springs is unknown. A number of localities have been improved and several are well known for 

the curative effects of their waters. Among the latter are the White 

Sulphur Springs, Hunter's Hot Springs, Matthews Warm Springs, and 

the Helena Hot Springs. The Territorial Asylum for the Insane is 

located at Warm Springs, in Deer Lodge County. The present table is 

derived from the personal knowledge of the writer, with data from 

various persons well known in Montana. Thanks are especially due to 

Mr. Peter Koch, of Bozeman, and:Mr. Walter Matheson, of Billings, for 

iuformatiou furnished.

PEALB.] IDAHO. 181

IDAHO.

The chemical composition of the mineral springs of Idaho is so little 

known that they cannot be definitely classified beyond stating that 

thermal springs predominate. That warm and hot springs abound 

might naturally be expected, when the geological structure of the Territory is recalled. Granitic and volcanic rocks prevail, and, in connection with the mountain corrugation, present most favorable conditions 

for the development of hot and warm springs. Mr. G. F. Becker, in 

the Statistics and Technology of the Precious Metals (p. 53), 1885, 

speaking of Idaho, says that hot springs are thickly distributed 

through the granitic areas, and in many cases issue directly through 

the granite, although usually within a mile or two of the known volcanic rocks, and that many of them are highly charged with alkalies and

hydrogen sulphide. The list presented here has been, made up largely

from various maps. Mr. Albert Williams has also kindly given considerable information. Although few of the springs have been improved, a 

great many are used extensively for bathing, especially in the mining regions. The most widely known resort is at Soda Springs, near the bend 

of Bear River. None of the waters is at present used commercially.

WYOMING.

The Yellowstone National Park, "with its wonderful geysers and large 

number of hot springs, lies almost entirely within the borders of Wyoming Territory. In the table the Park is divided into thirteen sublocalitieSj containing altogether more than two thousand springs. Besides 

these, our list includes twenty-eight localities outside of the Park. It is 

probably not complete, for there are large portions of the Territory still 

but little known. This is especially true of the region of the Big HJoru 

Mountains. The table has been compiled from various Government 

maps and reports. Several places are utilized as resorts, and the water 

from a spring at Soda Butte in the National Park is sometimes offered 

for sale in Montana.

UTAH.

The earlier explorers and* travelers who crossed Utah on their way 

to the Pacific noted the presence of mineral waters and thermal springs, 

especially in the region of Great Salt Lake. These springs, some of 

them strongly saline, in many places furnish all the water to be obtained, 

except by long journeys. The thermal springs occur mainly in connection with faulted strata, and they also are generally saline and frequently sulphureted. Comparatively few are used as resorts, even 

locally, and none of the waters is known to be at present of commercial importance. The springs at Salt Lake City are probably the best 

known and most used for medicinal purposes. The " Utah Hot Springs," 

ten miles north of Ogdeu, formerly called "Ked Springs" aud "Bear 

.River Springs," are used for bathing to a considerable extent. There is* 

a hotel at the springs, and the place is utilized largely by residents of

Ogdeu. "Beck's Hot Springs" are probably the springs 2 or 2£ miles 

north of Salt Lake City and the same as the springs analyzed by Jackson in 1850 and Gale in 1851. For a considerable number of localities 

and corrections of temperatures I am indebted to Mr. G. K. Gilbert.

188 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES. [BULL. 32.

COLORADO.

Both hot and cold mineral springs abound in Colorado and contribute to the reputation of the State as a health resort. Considering the 

newness of the State, a fair proportion of its springs have been improved, and several of them have become known all over the country. 

Among these are Manitou Springs, at the base of Pike's Peak. The 

authorities for the list given here are the reports and maps of the 

Hayden Survey and of the Wheeler Survey and Dr. Charles Dennison's 

Eocky Mountain Health Eesorts, supplemented by personal knowledge 

of a large number of the localities.

NEW MEXICO.

In many portions of New Mexico, alkaline and saline waters (many 

of them warm or hot) are doubtless more prevalent than are pure waters. 

The mineral springs that are utilized for medicinal purposes are numerous, and some of them were used years ago by the Franciscan and 

Dominican friars, and by the Indians prior to the advent of Europeans. 

Many of the hot springs have widespread reputations throughout the 

(Southwest. Among those most used at the present time are Las Vegas, 

Jeines, Joseph's Ojo Caliente, and Hudson's Hot Springs. The present 

list for the Territory is compiled mainly from information furnished by 

members of the United States Geological Survey whose field of work has 

been in Few Mexico. Various Government exploration and geological 

reports and hand-books have also been drawn upon. The analyses, 

with one exception, have been taken from the Report of the United 

States Geographical Survey West of the 100th Meridian (Vol. Ill, 

Geology).

196 MINERAL SPRINGS OF THE UNITED STATES [BULL. 32.

ARIZONA.

Definite information relating to the mineral springs of Arizona is difficult 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.

NEVADA.

The State of Nevada is better off in respect to springs than in regard 

to streams of running water. She occupies a prominent place as a 

mineral-spring State. Both hot and cold springs (the former predominating) are found in every county. Walton's work credits the State 

with two localities, and yet there are at least ten localities that are 

utilized for medicinal purposes, and many of them were so used by the 

Indians long before settlements were made by the whites. Our table 

includes more than one hundred localities, and yet only a part of 

the actual number of springs are given, for some of the groups contain 

as many as forty or fifty or even more individual springs. It is impossible at present to give the total number of springs. Steamboat 

Springs is probably the best known, resort, as it has long been readily 

accessible. The warm and hot springs are found mainly in connection 

with geological fault-lines or fractures of the strata. Salt springs and 

borax springs are numerous. Sulphureted springs are frequently 

found also. So few of the springs have been analyzed that the greater 

part of them must be considered as unknown, so far as their chemical 

character is concerned. The list of springs has been compiled from 

various maps and such Government reports as were accessible, supplemented by information furnished by members of the United States 

Geological Survey who have worked in Nevada.

Mr. I. C. Russell and Dr. W. J. Hoffman have added largely to the 

list from their personal knowledge of the State, and thanks are also due 

to Mr. L. A. Buckner, of Winneinucca, Nev.

CALIFORNIA.

The States of the Pacific coast are remarkable for the number of their 

mineral springs, especially of hot and warm springs, and California 

stands at the head of the list, having probably more localities than any 

other State, east or west. Our table does not give the total number of 

individual springs, since complete reports have been received from comparatively few of the localities included. The springs are classified as 

sulphureted, carbonated, alkaline, saline, chalybeate, and acid. Naturally many of the springs are thermal, for the volcanic rocks with 

which such springs are usually associated are found in many portions 

of the State. A large number of the California springs are improved 

and utilized as places of resort, being visited by thousands of people 

annually. Many, however, are comparatively inaccessible, and are 

therefore little known. The best known springs are probably the Geyser Springs of Sonoma County, which are really a collection of fumaroles, solfataras, and boiling springs. There are nearly a dozen localities 

at which the waters are put up for sale and shipment.

The list of springs given here has been compiled from various sources. 

The report of Dr. F. W. Hatch, in the Sixth Eeport of the State Board 

of Health, for 1880, and various hand-books (among them Truman's 

Illustrated Guide and II. H. Chittenden's Health and Pleasure Eesorts of the Pacific Coast) have been drawn upon in its preparation. 

Besides these, the reports of the State mineralogist, Henry G. Hanks,

(330)
PKALB.] CALIFORNIA. 203

Whitney's geological reports, and the various Government geological 

publications have been consulted, and all this has been supplemented by 

reference to the various maps of the State. For the northern portion ot 

the State many additional data, that have never been published, have 

been obtained from Mr. Gilbert Thompson, Mr. Mark B. Kerr, and Mr. 

Eugene Eicksecker, of the United States Geological Survey, who have 

worked in that section of the State recently. Dr. W. J. Hoffrnan and 

Mr. I. 0. Eussell have kindly given information as to other parts of the 

State.

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 Kesorts of the Pacific Coast for 1S79 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. Marie B. Kerr and Mr. Eugene Eicksecker have furnished data as 

to springs in the southern counties of the State. A considerable number of the springs have been improved and are utilized as resorts.

WASHINGTON.

The list of mineral springs for Washington Territory is as yet small, 

and, so far as known, this is the first attempt to enumerate them. 

Walton mentions but one locality, viz, Medical Lake, which is at 

present the only one at which the water is put up for sale. The water 

is condensed and bottled and the evaporated salts are also put up in 

packages, which are extensively sold. There is but one other locality 

in the Territory used as a resort. As the country becomes more fully 

settled there will doubtless be other localities improved and many new 

ones added to the table.

The present list has been compiled partly from maps and partly from 

letters received from various portions of the Territory.

ALASKA.

According to Dr. William H. Ball (from whose Alaska and Its Resources the list given here is mainly compiled), the hot and mineral 

springs of Alaska are both numerous and important. Besides the hot 

springs there are many which do not freeze even during the most severe 

winter weather, and which, therefore, are properly included under the

(346)
I'EAT.t!.] ALASKA. 219

head of thermal springs. Hot springs are most numerous on the list, 

which may be clue partly to the fact that such springs naturally attract 

most attention, especially in a new country. Chalybeate, sulphureted, 

and saline springs-are also found. The springs enumerated by Ball are 

supplemented in the table by several others, two of which are taken 

from a book by Frederick Whymper, one from the Pacific Coast Pijot 

for 1869, and two from Walton's Mineral Springs, in which they are 

reported by Dr. H. J. Phillips, of the United States Army. Several 

localities have been added by Sheldon Jackson. So far as learned., none 

of the waters of the Alaskan mineral springs has ever been analyzed.

O
[Bulletin No. 33.]

The publications of the United States Geological Survey are issued in accordance -with the statute, 

approved March 3,1879, -which declares that 

" The publications of the Geological Survey shall consist of the annual report of operations, geological 

and economic maps illustrating the resources and classification of the lands, and reports upon general 

and economic geology and paleontology. The annual report of operations of the Geological Survey 

shall accompany the nnnual report of the Secretary of the Interior. All special memoirs and reports 

of said Survey shall be issued in uniform quarto series if deemed necessary by the Director, but otherwise in ordinary octavos. Three thousand copies of each shall be published for scientific exchanges 

and for sale at the price of publication; and all literary and cartographic materials received in exchange 

shall bo the property Of the United States and form a part of the library of the organization: And the 

money resulting from the sale of such publications shall be covered into the Treasury of the United 

States."

On July 7,1882, the following joint resolution, referring to all Government publications, was passed 

by Congress:

" That whenever any document or report shall be ordered printed by Congress, there shall be printed, 

in addition to the number in each case stated, the 'usual number' (1,900) of copies for binding and 

distribution among those entitled to receive them."

Under these general laws it will be seen that none of the Survey publications are furnished to it for 

gratuitous distribution. The 3,000 copies of the Annual Report are distributed through the document 

rooms of Congress. The 1,900 copies of each of the publications are distributed to the officers of the 

legislative and executive departments and to stated depositories throughout the United States.

Except, therefore, in those cases where an extra number of any publication is specially supplied to 

this Office, tho Survey has no copies of any of its publications for gratuitous distribution.

BULLETINS. .

The Bulletins of the Survey will contain such papers relating to the general purpose of its work as 

do not properly come under the heads of Annutl Reports or Monographs.

Each of these Bulletins contains but one paper and is complete in itself. They are, however, numbered in a continuous series, and may thus be united into volumes of convenient size. To facilitate 

this, each Bulletin has two paginations, one proper to itself and another which belongs to it as part of 

the volume.

Of this series of Bulletins Nos. 1 to 32 are already published, viz :

1. On Hypersthene-Andesite and on Triclinic Pyroxene in Augitic Rocks, by Whitman Cross, with 

a Geological Sketch of Buffalo Peaks, Colorado, by S. F. Emmons. 1883. 8°. 42 pp. 2 pi. Price 10 cents.
