electricity from a point on the Colo

DISCHARGES OF
THE COLORADO
Enormous Loads of Sediments and
Dissolved Chemicals Importance
of Water Investigations by United
States Geological Survey.

L.. Inc COLORADO river discharges dur
ing an average year into the Gulf Of
California 38S, 900 tons of mud
and silt as suspended matter In ad
diiton to this the dissolved substan-
ces in the water include 4, $4,000
tons Of sodium chloride, or common
salt; 3,740,000 tons of Glauber's salts;
100000 tons of lime; 100000 tons
; of gypsum; and 4,80O,OOO tons of Ep-
som salts. In spite of all this dis
solved material the Colorado at its
mouth Is not considered to be
stream of unusually high mineraliza-
tion for that region of the country.
The reason is that the river also car
ries so enormoue an amount of wa
ter that the dissolved salts constitute
a comparatively small proportion of
the total discharge. Other streams
in the country. contain dissolved salts
in greater concentration-for exam
pie, the Elm Fork of Red river, in
Oklahoma, discharges nearly 1,30O,-
900 tons of common salt annually. AL
though this amount is not so great
as that discharged by the Colorado it
is much greater in proportion to the
size of the area drained. The dis
charge of salt from the Colorado Is
equal to 20 tons annually to each
square mile drained by the river, but
the salt in Elm Fork Of Red river Is
equal to 1850 tons per square mile
of area drained The same river dis,
charges annually $4,000 tons. of mag
nesium chloride, 10000 tons of Ep-
som salts, 100000. tons of gypsum,
and $4,000 tons of lime. These guam
titles, too, are considerably greater
than those carried in the Colorado in
proportion to the size of the drain
age area.
The foregoing are few Of the fig
ures of incidental interest presented
by Water-Supply Paper 274 of the
United States Geological Survey, en-
titled "Some stream waters of the
western United States" The work
reported by this volume Is, however
of higher practical Importance than
the above statement would indicate.
1t is the result of an Investigation Of
the quality Of western stream waters
made for the purpose of determining
their availability for use for irriga-
ton and other purposes. For water
supply system the quality of the wa
ter available determines it's useful
ness quite as much as the quantity.
Some waters contain ingredients that
make it impossible to use them for
irrigation unless certain precautions
are taken in applying them to the
land and in draining them off. Ger
tain ingredients In water make, 1t un-
available or destructive if used in
boilers and the quality of water used
in a manufacturing plant may very
largely determine the quality of the
product of manufacture. The report
just published therefore cannot fail
to be of material value to the manu-
featuring and agricultural interests Of
the west; and the proper. considera-
ton of the information that. it con-
tains. will prevent many costly mis-
takes in connection with the indus
trial development Of that part Of the
country.
