FLOODS IN THE MISSISSIPPI
The Enormous Spring Freshets o
Glacial Days Described

Now that attention is centered up
on the devastation caused by floods
in the Mississippi river. it is good
time to reflect upon what science has
demonstrated concerning the floods
which were witnessed in the valley
during the closing stages of the glac-
ial epoch. Twelve or fifteen years
ago glacialists were called upon to
account for a cluster of Canadian
powders which were found at Tus-
cumbia, Mo-, on the Usage river, so
miles above its junction with the Mis-
souri,, and 30 miles south of the ex-
IRENE limit of the glacial ice sheet.
In the explanation which J published
at the time, it was demonstrated that
the only way the powders could have
reached that position was on floating
ice brought down the Missouri river
when it was so gorged by water from
the rapidly melting glacier that the
annual floods rose 200 feet. But
since the Usage river had no ice
fields to abnormally increase its
flow, the floods of the Missouri would
set back into the Usage valley and
carry with them their bowlder-laden
ice foes to deposit their burdens as
they were found at Tuscumbia
In working out this problem it was
found by a conservative estimate that
during the closing stages of the gla-
cial epoch II times as much water
as is now annually carried away by
the Missouri river would have to be
disposed of each summer for a con
siderable time. Whereas now the an
nual flow of the river carries off 29
cubic miles of water during the clos
ing stages of the glacial epoch it
would be compelled to carry off 500
cubic miles. To many this seems an
! extravagant estimate. But now it is
made to seem quite moderate in view
of recent calculations made by the
late Prof Tarr and his associates up
on the increase of the run off from
| the glaciated areas of Alaska, caused
by the melting of the ice. AS the
| result OF a great number of observa
lions on the different glaciers in Alas
ka it is found that on an average
four inches of ice is daily melted by
the sun during the middle of summer
With this amount of ablation OF lie,
tributary to the Mississippi valley
the river would be swollen to vol

stream. We leave it for the reader
