GOVERNMENT
STUDIES WATER
The old-fashioned idea that, for
practical men, water was water if it
would flow through a pipe in
sufficient quantity has recently
been greatly modified, as those
practical men have come to realize
that a part of the production-cost
in many industries must be
charged to the use of water un
suited to their purposes.
The most important factor affect
ing the value of water for domestic
supplies is its potability, which is
determined primarily by its free
dom from dangerous, ill smelling,
and bad-lasting organisms or sub
stances; but for industrial uses
the.-e features are as a rule rather
secondary in importance, and the
suitability of the supply is deter
mined by the amount and kinds
of mineral matter dissolved or
suspended in it. Especially is
this true of water u ed for
steam making, iu pper making,
in bleaching, and for other similar
purposes. In some industries,:
however, such as starch making,
brewing, distilling, and ice manu
facturing, the hygienic quality of
the water must be considered as
its physical and chemical charac
teristics. All natural waters contain more
or less foreign matter. Leaves,
sawdust, sticks, sand, clay, and
other material may be found sus
pended in it, and chemical analy
sis may reveal resins, gums, and
tannins extracted from vegetable
matter, and any one or all of a
dozen or more minerals. A study
of the peculiar composition of dif
ferent waters and of their adapta
bility to various industrial pro
cesses is therefore of great impor
tance to many people.
Such a study has for some time
formed a part of the work of the
water-resources branch of the
United States geological survey.
j Kidablished w ith the broad pur-
! ixACii ivf (f.irtiil tti ttit I ri.i i..t,ti.
value of the water resources of the
country, this branch of the survey
has carried on investigations of
many kinds. The flow of streams
has bwn measured at more than
1500 places iu the United States
and Alaska; underground water
conditions have been investigated
in many Slates; and the quality
of both surface and underground
waters in it relation to domestic
supply and to manufacturing and
1 other industries, has been syste
matically studied. Since l$9t the
surrey has published 21t reports
resulting from this work, the Glib
ly o
jecls including surface water sup
ply, underground waters and the
geologic conditions affecting them,
water power, quality of water, irri
gation, and general hydrographic
investigations. A list of these
papers will lie sent en application
to the Director of the Survey nt
Washington, I). C.
The results of the study of the
quality of the surface waters of
the country are now being pre
pared for publication
this study about UK) stations were
established on stream in various
parts of the country, at which
samples of water were collected
dailj for a period of one year.
The daily samples were united in
sets o! ten, and the composite was
then subject'd to complete
mineral analysis. The analytical
work on this large investigation
has len nearly completed. As
was to W expected, it shows thai
the waters from different parts of
the country vary gteatly in chemi
cal composition and consequently
in their availability for industrial
uses.
It is hoped that this report will
be ready for the printer early in
the spring and that it will bo pub
lished during the summer.
