Fully one-third of this sun is used by the Government, Stntes, and. prl- vato Individuals to keep the stream nnd its tributaries in an “improved condition.” The table will shaw the average of expenditures obtatned for the last thirty yenrs: Expenditures ot the Stites af Mis- slssipnt, Louisiona, and Arkansas on leveos sine 1810...

The sedimentary deposit varles from 60 to 100 feet Indepth. It is generally comtpastd of silt, with n mixture of clay: ani sand, which, laying been deposited by the river, Is at Its‘disposnt to Ile still or be shifted about. It Is evident that no ordinary con- struction can long stand unless ft lias a foundation penctrating this bed to a rock stratun. Tho great bridge nt St. Louls, for instance, has Hg plers resting on the Hme- stone bed-rock, under w sedimentary deposit of seventy fect. The railway bridge at the inouth of the Minnesota River has its plers lodged ona stender stratum of hard earth sixty tect beneath the river’s bottom, Itis further admitted that in boring through this stratum a soft layer was struck, whieh would not uphold the rod’s welght. At Cairo, Ill, in 1877, the Untted States corps of engineers, under Lieut, D. W. Lockwood, made borings to depth of elghty-saven fect without en- countering any stratum harder than sand. At this point the machinery broke down aut Op tate were suspended, At a depth of thirty-three feet the auger penetrated 2 cot tonwood log, hardly ready to decay, showing conclusively the facility with which the river mikes Its uwa bed. AG the snine pinee ft fs stated on good authority that piles, one on another, have been driven ton depth of 125 feet without encountering a rocky stratum, » Tho story of Its rent width is even more remurkable.
