quently grown, and cranberry produc-
ton has been developed to consider
able proportions. In many places
large drainage projects have been con-
structed and efforts are under way to
develope the region agriculturalIy. :
In the northern twosthirds OF the
county, which. is largely covered by
drift from early ice sheets, the topo-.
graphy is much more mature than in
those parts of the State. covered by
the late Wisconsin ice sheet. Most of
the slopes are long and gentle. There
are no lakes and coparatively few
swamps. At Vespere the elevation a,
bove sea level is 1000 feet, at Arpin
LAC feet, at Marshfeld 1888 feet,
and at Auburndale 1918 feet. The
highest parts of the Marshfeld Nor
aine probably rise only 100 to $50
feet above the surrounding lowland
Powers Bluff reaches an estimated
elevation of 800 to 400 feet above the
surrounding country, and probably in
cludes the highest point in the county
The general elevation of the southern
part of the county is 200 to 800 feet
lower than that of the northern divi-
sion. The elevation at Port Edwards
is $50 feet, at Nekoosa $50 feet, at
Dexterville 1914 feet, and at Babcock
GIT feet.
The drainage of most Of the county
is into the Wisconsin river, which
crosses the eastern, part of the area
Nearly all the remainder of the county
drains first into the Yellow River,
which traverses the western part from
north to south and joins the Wiscon-
sin River at Necedah, in Juneau coun-
| ty, to the south. The East Fork of
Black River receives drainage water
from an area Of about two townships
in the west-central part of the county.
This stream is directly tributary to
the Mississippi River.

GUY CONREY, W. C. BOARDMAN, and CLINTON B.
POST, of the Wisconsin Geological and Natural
History Survey-Area Inspected by T. D. .
RICE. Description of the Area.

Wood County is situated in the cen
trail part of Wisconsin,. It is bounded.
on the north by Marathon County,
on the east by Portage County, on
the south by Adams and Juneau Coun-
ties, and on the west by Jackson and
Clark Counties. 1t has length north
and south Of 30 miles and a maximum
width east and west of so miles. 1t
comprises an area of 800 square miles
or 517.760~ acres
On the basis of : topography the
county falls naturally into two divi-
sions, separated by line running near
ly parallel with, but somewhat to the
north Of, the Green Bay & Western
Railroad, which crosses the county
from east to west. The region to the
north of this line, comprising consid-
erably more than one-half the county,
consists of an undulating or nearly
level to rolling country, throughout
which the soils are heavy and of good
or excellent quality for agriculture.
Many communities here are as we'll i'm
proved and as highly developed as the
best farming districts of southern
Wisconsin. The most conspicuous sur
face features are the sMarshfeld Nor
aine, south and southeast of Marshfeld
and Powers Bluff, which is large
quartzite hill southwest Of Arpin.
To the south of the dividing line
the county consists of nearly level
sand plains, rising gradually in ele-
walton from south to north. Project
| ing through the floor of this plain and
rising to elevations which range from
| 20 to over 100 feet are few sand
stone and quartzite hills, which form
the most conspicuous features of the
landscape. In few places low dunes
| have been formed on the extensive
/ sand flats, while in the southern and
stretches Of marsh occur, often dotted
southwestern parts of the county large
with innumerable small sand islands
! 1 or feet above the level of the low
/ lands. The fertility of the sand is

River in this region began with the
erection of saWmill at the present
site of Nekoosas in 1881. In 1896
a strip Of country 3 miles in width on
each side Of the river, extending to
a point 40 miles north of this site,
was given over to the lumbermen by
the Indians. In 1848 title to all lands
was taken from the Indians and the
country opened up for settlement. In
1856 Wood county was separated
from Portage County. Grand Rapids
was incorporated in 1869. Settle
ments were made in the southern part
Of the county earlier than in the north
ern, chiefly because pine was the pre-
dominant timber growth here, while
in the northern part the pine was us
ually. mixed in with hardwood. Lum-
bering was the chief industry for q
long period after the.frst. settlements
were made. The present Minneapolis,
ST. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway
was built through the county, to Marsh
field in 1871 and the present Chicago,
Milwaukee & ST., Paul Railway wa
constructed in 1873. -.,..zc
Many Of the early settlers came from
the States of Illinois, Ohio, and New
York, and from Canada. Later many
foreigners, principally Germans, Nor
wegians, and Swedes, took up land.
fThe southern part of the county is
for the most part thinly settled and
undeveloped agriculturally, while the
northern part is we'll Settled and much
of the land is highly improved.
Grand Rapids, with population in
1910 of about $500, is the county seat
and largest city. 1t is a distributing
and railroad center of Importance. Ex-
tensive water power is developed here,
from the rapids in the Wisconsin River
one of the chief uses of which is in
operating large paper mill Other
extensive power developments and
paper mills are situated at Nekoosa,
| Port Edwards and Biron. Marshfeld
| the second city in Importance, with a
population of 5,783 in 1910, is in the
center of a highly developed agricul-
| tural region. Nekoosa had a popula-
ton in 1910 of 1870. Other towns
include PittsviHe, Babcock, Dexterville
Auburndale, Milladore, Vesper, Arpin,
and Rudolph. The total population of
the county in 1910 was sc, 583.1
The county is well supplied with
railroads. Lines Of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul, Chicago & North
western, Minneapolis, st. Paul & Sault
Ste. Marie, and Green Bay & Western
reach practically every township and
afford good means of communication
. with the Twin Cities, Duluth, Madison,
Milwaukee, Chicago, and other large
! centers of population.
The mum towns within the
county furnish market for consider
able farm produce, but the greater
population is shipped to outside points.
/ A large part of the farm income
is from the sale of dairy products,
chiefly butter and cheese, much Of
which goes to Chicago nd-eastern and
I.southern cities. Practically all the
fat stock sold IS shipped to Chicago.
