REPORT

OF

PROGRESS OF STREAM MEASUREMENTS FOR THE CALENDAR

YEAR 1913.

By P. M. SAUDER, G. H. WHYTE and G. R. ELLIOTT.

INTRODUCTION

SCOPE OF WORK

The cMef features of the stream measurement work are the collection of data relatin.£T
to the flow of surface waters and a study of the conditions affecting this flow. Information is
also collected concerning river proflles, the duration and magnitude of floods, irrigation,
water-power, storage, seepage, etc., which may be of use in hj-drographic studies.

This information is obtained by a series of observation at regular gauging stations which
are established at suitable points. The selection of sites for these gauging stations and their
maintenance depend largely upon the physical features and needs of the locality. If water is
to be used for irrigation purposes the summer flow receives special attention; where it is
required for power purposes it becomes necessarj' to determine the minimum flow; if water
is to be stored, information is obtained regarding the maximum flow. In all cases the duration
of the different stages of the streams is recorded. Thi-oughout the countr}- gauging stations
are maintained for general .statistical purposes, to show the conditions existing tkrough
long periods. They are also used as primary stations, and their records in connec-
tion with short series of measurements will serve as basis for estimating the flow at other
points in the di'ainage basin.

During the open water season of 1913, records were taken at one hundred and forty-six
(146) regular gauging stations on various streams in Alberta and Saskatchewan and at
seventeen (17) regulai* gauging stations on irrigation ditches. Winter records, which are so
valuable for power investigations and municipal water supplies, are receiving special attention
and records are now being secured on almost aU the important streams in these two provinces,
during the entire year.

« ORGANIZATIOX.

The methods of carriyng on the investigations were similar to those of previous years.
Local residents were engaged to observe the gauge height at regular stations. These obser-
vations were recorded in a book supphed by the department, and at the end of each week
the observer copied the week's records on a postal card which was sent to the chief hydrogra-
pher by the first convenient mail. The district hydrographers made regular \isits to the
gauging stations, usually once in every three weeks. On these visits they examined the
observers' records, made discharge measurements and collected such information and data
as would be of use in making estimates of the dail^' flow at the station. The results of the
guagings were transmilted by a postal card to the chief hydrographer. In the office these re-
ports of the gauge height observers and the hydrographers were copied from the postal cards
to regular forms and tiled. At the close of the open season, some of the hydrogi'aphers return-
ed to the office and assisted in the final computations and estimates of run-off. Gauge
height-area, gauge height-mean velocity, and gauge height-discharge curves were plotted
and rating tables constructed. Tables of discharge measurements, daily gauge height and
discharge, and monthly discharge were also compiled. These records have been re-copied
and are embodied in this, the Fiith Annual Report of i'rogress of ^>tream ^leasurements.

The organization also was very similar to that of previous years, except that owing to the
fact that the Chief Hydrographer spent the most of his time on administrative work, and the
office work had very materially increased, it was found necessary to increase the office staff
to include two assistant engineers. The regular staff for the past year, therefore, included
thirteen assistant engineers, a recorder, a computer, and a clerk. Similai'ly to i^revious
\'ears, the territory, which includes almost aU the accessible portions of Alberta and Sask-
atchewan, was divided, for administrative purposes, into ten districts, viz.; Banff, Calgary,
Alacleod, Cardston, Milk River, Western Cypress Hills, Eastern Cypress Hills, Saskatoon,

8 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

Edmonton and Athabasca. In eacli district there was one hydrographer, who while in the
field, employed temporary assistance, and was equipped with the necessary ganging and
surveying instruments. In Banff, Calgary, Macleod, Saskatoon, Edmonton, and Athabasca
districts, the hydrographers travelled by train and hired livery, and stopped at hotels and
stopping houses; while in the other districts they were supplied with a team, light waggon,
and light camping outfit. The thirteenth engineer was employed at rating meters and other
extra work.

The number of gauging stations maintained during the winter months was much less
than dm-ing the summer, and by re-arranging the district six engineers were able to do all
the field work during the winter. The other seven engineers together with an extra temporary
employee have compiled the records for the annua report. At the request of the Water
Powers Branch, and the City of Prince Albert, a special study of the winter flow of the Korth
Saskatchewan River at Prince Albert, was commenced in December last, and an extra assis-
tant engineer was employed for this work.

BANFF DISTRICT.

This district included the following regular gauging stations:

Kananaskis River S.W. 34-24-8-5b Aug. 31, 1911

Louise Creek N.E. 20-28-16-5 July 5, 1913

Pipestone River S.W. 27-2S-16-5 Aug. 31, 1911

Spray River N.W. 25-25-12-5 July 15, 1910

In a few cases the conditions have been so unfavourable that gauge readings could not
be obtained all winter, but in almost every case discharge measurements have been made
regularly at intervals of about two weeks during the whole year at all the above stations
excepting those on Bath and Louise Creeks, which were established during the current year,
and Jumpingpound Creek which was not maintained during the winter months.

Miscellaneous gaugings were made of Beaupre Creek (N.E. 15-26-5-5), Big Hill Creek
(S.W. 10-26-4-5), Bow River (S.W. 32-26-14-5), Grand VaUey Creek (S.W. 24-26-5-5),
Healy Creek (S.W 29-25-12-5). Horse Creek (N.E. 8-26-4-5), Spencer Creek (S.E. 18-26
5-5), Spray River (at Spray Lakes) and Vermillion Creek (S.W. 32-26-14-5.)

The records at the two new gauging stations on Bath and Louise Creeks will give some
valuable data regarding the run-off from the snow clad regions, as a large portion of the
drainage areas above these stations is always covered with snow and ice.

The Calgary Power and Transmission Company have recently completed their new
power plant at Kananaskis Falls, and now have a total capacity of 41,000 horsepower (25,000
at the Horseshoe plant and 18,000 at the Kananaskis plant), when there is sufficient water
available. The operation of the storage reservoirs in connection with these plants affects the
natural flow slightly of Bow River below Cascades River, and backmater from the dam at
Kananaskis Falls made it necessary to move the gauging station on Kananaskis
River further upstream.

SurA^eys by the Water Powers Branch indicate that the most favourable undeveloped
storage on the head-waters of Bow River is at Spray Lakes and for the purposes of making
a comparison of the flow of Spray River at the lakes and at the mouth, a gauging was made at
the outlet of the lakes. The one isolated gauging does not, however, give very valuable
information and as soon as possible a gauge will he estabUshed and gaugings made regularly.

H. C. Ritchie, A. M. Can. Soc. C. E., was in charge of the field work in this district and
the final computations were made by G. R. Elliott.

a. — This station wa3 originally located on N.E. 23-23-16-5 but was moved to its present position on August
31, 1911.

It will be noted that this district did not include the Bow and Elbow Rivers at Calgary,
but included instead several streams at, and east of Medicine Hat. Owing to the difficulty
and cost of securing records on Berry and Blood Indian Creeks, the regular gauging stations
on these two streams have been abandoned until the district is more accessible, and no
gaugings were made of these at all during 1913. The lower station on Bow River had to be
moved because of backwater from the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's dam. It is now
located below the dam. The other gauging station in this district on Bow River was not satis-
factory in its original location and had not been used for over two years. The Southern
Alberta Land Company re-established it in its present position and we are co-operating with
them in collecting the records.

Miscellaneous gaugings were made of the North and South Branches of Fish Creek near
Priddis, Lineham's spillway at High River, Pine Creek near De Winton, Tongueflag Creek
near High River and several springs.

The Dams of the Southern Alberta Land Company near Namaka and the Canadian
Pacific Railway Company near Bassano are now practically completed and some water will
probably be diverted at each of these points during 1914. Arrangements are therefore being
made for securing records of the fiow in the canals during 1914.

The only gauging stations in the above list that were maintained during the winter were
those on Highwood River at High River and the South Saskatchewan River at Medicine Hat,
the former being included in the Edmonton and the latter in the Macleod district during
the winter months.

F. R. Steinberger, B.E., was in charge of the field work in this district during the open
water period, and the final computations were made by G. R. Elliott and E. J. Switzer.

Willow Creek (near Claresholm), York Creek (N.W. 34-7-4-5) and several other spring
creeks.

As this district has been organized for several years and there have been no extensive
developments of the water resom-ces, no changes of any account were made during the past
year. Records of the flow of Oldman River have however become very valuable in connection
with the investigation of the proposed scheme to irrigate a large tract of land lying_ between
Little Bow River and Oldman River.

Winter records were taken of Belly River, Crowsnest River (three stations), McGilli-
vray Creek (December only,), Oldman River (two stations), Southfork River, St. Mary River
and Summit Creek (miscellaneous) ; Belly and St. Mary Rivers being included in the Cardston
district during the winter months.

H. O. Brown, B. A. Sc. was in charge of the field work in this district until early in May
when he was transferred to other work and Roundell Palmer was placed in charge for the
balance of the year. The final computations were made by H. O. BrowTi, E. J. Switzer and

In 1912 an arrangement was made with the United States Geological Survey by which
regular gauging stations on St. Mary and Milk Rivers would be maintained jointly, each
bearing half the cost of construction and maintenance. The upper stations on St. ISlary
River and the North Branch of Milk River were therefore re-located at better sites and a
new station was established on the South Branch of Milk River in the State of JSlontana.
These stations were equipped with automatic recording gauges early in 1913, which have
been used since then.

Miscellaneous gaugings were made of Blackfoot Creek (near Standoff), Blakiston
Brook (N.E. 30-1-29-4), Boundary Creek (N.E. 27-1-26-4), Cottonwood Creek (S.W. 21-2-
29-4), Drywood River (N.W. 18-4-29-4), Foothill Creek (near Twin Butte P. 0.),Oil Creek
(S.W. 23-1-30-4), Pine Creek (N.W. 21-3-29-4), and St. Mary River (S.W. 11-3-25-4).

The station on Lodge Creek near the International boundary was equipped with a
cable, car, measuring line and stay line. Gaugings can now be made at all stages of the
stream.

During the year several private irrigation ditches were completed and the area in this
district under irrigation is being gradually increased. An extensive survey for the purpose of
locating reservoir sites and determining the irrigable areas under them was made under
the direction of the Commissioner of Irrigation during 1913. The results of the Survey
which are of considerable interest will be found in his report on "Irrigation and Irrigation
Surveys" for 1913.

During 1913, a part of the Weyburn-Lethbridge Branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway
was graded through this district. It will soon be completed and in operation, which will
make this district much more accessible and give its development quite an impetus.

No winter records were taken in this district during 1913.

H. D. St. A. Smith, Grad. R.M.C., was in charge of the field work in this district during
1913, and also made the final computations for the annual report.

Artificial controls were constructed on Skull and Piapot Creeks and proved very satis-
factory, and on two very small streams, Rose and Lonepine Creeks, weirs were constructed
and also proved very satisfactory. The beds of these streams had always been very unstable
and made it difficult to make accurate estimates of the daily discharge. It is proposed to
construct weirs or artificial controls at several other stations which have been shifting.

During the year several private irrigation ditches were completed and the area in this
district under irrigation is also being gradually increased.

The Weybiurn-Lethbridge Branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway is graded through
this district and will soon be completed and in operation. This will very materially assist
in the development of the district.

No winter records were taken in this district during 1913-

E. W. W. Hughes was in charge of the field work in this district and also made the final
computations for the annual report.

Miscellaneous gaugings were made of Moosejaw Creek (N. E. 14-15-25-2), Morrison
Creek (N.W. 7-8-2-2), Souris River (S.W. 15-2-8-2), Swiftcurrent Creek (S.W. 12 & S.E. 24-
15-14-3, and S.W. 19-15-13-3), and Thunder Creek (at Moose Jaw).

During 1913, the City of Swift Current built a dam in Swiftcurrent Creek to store w^ater
for domestic purposes during the winter when the flow in the creek is very small and insuffi-
cient, and the City of Moose Jaw completed a dam in Moosejaw Creek to store water for fire
protection purposes.

As intimated elsewhere, a special study of the winter flovr of the North Saskatchewan
River at Prince Albert was commenced in December and an extra assistant engineer was en-
gaged for the work. Three careful gaugings were made each week and the gauge was read
three times each day. This will not only give very accurate records of the discharge of the
river but the results should also furnish some valuable data for research purposes.

Winter records were taken at all of the regular gaugings stations in this district, except
on Bridge Creek, Long Creek, Moose ]Mountain Creek, the upper station on Moosejaw Creek
and the two lowxT stations on Souris River.

O. H. Hoover, B.A.Sc, was in charge of the field work in this district and also made the
final computations for the annual report. W. H. Storey was placed in charge of the special
work at Prince Albert.

There w^as no apparatus at the gauging station on Athabasca River for making gaugings
during open water and discbarge measurements were therefore made only during the winter
months. A cable has however since been installed and continuous records mP be secured
in future.

The new gauging station on the North Saskatchewan River is at Rocky Mountain
House, and owing to the poor train service very few gaugings were made. A gauging station
was also started on the Clearwater River, at the same place, but was not finished for use
in 1913. _ \

A Gurley Self Recording Water Stage Register was installed at the gauging station on
Bow River in November, 1913.

Miscellaneous gaugings were rtfade of Blindman River (N.W. 15-39-27-4), Pigeon
Creek (at outlet of Pigeon Lake), and Red Deer River (N.E. 6-36-28-4).

Winter records were taken at all of the regular gauging stations in this district, except
those on Battle River, Can. Pac. Ry. Go's Canal, and Nose Greek.

While there has been very little water power developed in this district, several concerns
have made plans and wiU. probably commence construction in the near future.

F. R. Burfield, A.M.I.C.E., was in charge of the field work in this district from January
1st to February 7th, V. Aleek, B.Sc, from February 8th to May 12th, J. S. Wright, Grad.

This district ,it will bo observed, is a new one, and was until June 1913, a part of the
Edmonton district. Considerable reconnaissance was done, but because observers were
not available only a few regular stations were established. Several more regular stations
will however be established during 1914. There are quite a number of every good sites for
developing water power and winter records are therefore of especial value and are receiving
particular attention.

G. J. Smith, B.A., was in charge of the field work in this district during 1913 and has
written a very interesting report of the district and the work done by him, which is attached
to this report as an appendix. G. H. Whyte made the final computations for the annual

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

I
CURREXT METER RATING STATION.

The rating station was kept in operation from early in May until early in November.
During this period all the current meters used in the field during 1913 were rated at least
once and most of them were rated twice.

In all fifty-six current meters were rated, thirty-seven for this branch, eight for the
Manitoba Hydrographic Survey, six for the British Columbia Hydrographic Survey, two
for the British Columbia Dept. of Lands, two for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company
and one for Anderson and Warden, Consulting Engineers, at Vancouver, B.C. Each meter
was rated in the condition in which it was returned from the field, and again after being
cleaned, adjusted and fitted with a new bearing. A rating table was prepared on tracing
Linen for each rating of each current meter. Blue prints of these were sent out with the
meters and the originals were filled in the office for future reference.

The recording apparatus on the rating car was improved earlj^ in the season so that now
the exact time and distance of the run for an exact number of revolutions of the meter can be
recorded. This simplifies the work and the results are more accurate.

BENCH-MARKS.

When the stream measurement work was first started, the gauges were usually referred
to bench marks on wooden stakes or stumps of trees. These were easily shifted or destroyed
and were not satisfactory-. In 1911, an iron bench-mark was adopted by this branch and now
almost all the gauges are either referred to bench-marks on concrete piers or other permanent
structures, or to one of these iron bench-marks. Whenever an opportunity is afforded these
are tied to the Canadian Pacific Railway or Dominion Government levels, to determine
their elevation above sea level, and they are therefore also a convenient reference for local
levelling operations.

Description of the iron bench-marks are given in the Report of the Progress of Stream
Measurements for 1911 and 1912.

OFFICE WORK.

As above intimated the reports of the gauge height observers and the hjdrographers
are transmitted to the office by postal cards. These are copied to office forms and filed in a
cabinet, which is carefully indexed and where they can be referred to at any time without
trouble. As the engineers complete their computations, the results are entered on convenient
forms and filed in the same cabinet.

A cabinet made up of four styles of di-awers is used for filing the records. The top section
is used for filing the gauge height books of the observers and the current meter note books
of the hydrographers. The gauge height books are filed alphabetically according to the names
of the gauging stations while the current meter note books are filed alphabetically, accord-
ing to the names of the hydrographers. The next section contains the postal cards sent in by
the observers and the hj^drographers. Both of these are filed alphabetically, according to the
names of the gauging stations. The third section is made up of map drawers and contains the
gauge height-area, gauge height-mean velocity and gauge height-discharge curves, and plotted
cross-sections which are filed alphabeticallj", according to the names of the gauging stations.
The same section contains the maps sho^sdng the outlines of the drainage basins, filed nume-
rically according to the number of the sectional sheet. The rating curves for the current
meters are also filed in this section numerically, according to the office numbers of the meters.
The bottom section of the cabinet consists of letter size pockets, alphabcticallj- aiTanged for
each gauging station. The tables of gauge heights, discharge measurements, daih* gauge
height and discharge, monthly discharge, a description of the station, and memos of any
changes are filed in these pockets. The dift'erent rating tables for each meter are also filed
numerically in this section and another drawer contains the monthly reports of the meteoro-
logical service.

The copying and fiUng of the reports of the gauge height observers and the hydrographers
is entrusted to the office recorder. While doing this he must carefully examine all records
to see that there are no errors, and where there are doubtful or impossible records it is his
duty to have the data corrected or ascertain the cause of the unusual condition. He also
makes out the pay list for the observers and condutes the correspondence relating to the
records.

All computations are checked before being used or published. For this reason, as far
as possible, men with some technical education, or students in science, are engaged as helpers.
The gaugings are computed by the helper and his work is checked bj^ the hydrographer. In
some instances where there is a great deal of driving and camping out, the hydrographer
cannot secure a helper who can compute discharges, and in that case he computes the dis-
charges himself and his computations are cheeked in the office.

Gaugings of the flow under ice are usually made by using the multiple point method,
and vertical velocity curves have to be plotted to determine the mean velocity in the vertical.

16 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The computation by this method is long and tedious and cannot be done by the hydrographer
in the field. There are therefore a great many computations to be made in the office and the
services of a computer are required.

During the year 1913, G. H. Nettleton filled the position of office recorder and J. B. Gray
that of office computer.

When the stream measurement work was first started there was a slight tendency to
make a big showing in the field work and to overlook the office work. UsuaUy the district
hydrographers are j^oung and somewhat inexperienced engineers and do not always realize
the importance of some of the details of the work. All the reports and field books should
therefore be thoroughly checked as they are received and the results should be plotted on
the gauge height-area, gauge height-mean velocity, and gauge height-discharge curves as
soon as received in the office. Discrepancies in the records are then discovered at an early
date, and the office is able to keep a better check on the results, and direct the work more
intelligently. The Chief Hydrographer now spends the greater portion of his time on irriga-
tion work and can only exercise a very general supervision over the stream measurement
work. The staff was therefore strengthened early in 1913, by the appointment of two assis-
tants to the Chief Hydrographer, who in addition to performing the duties of office engineers,
act also as field inspectors. By constantly checking up the field and office work the assistants
are bringing it up to a higher degree of accuracy.

G. H. Whyte was appointed First Assistant to the Chief Hydrographer on .January 1st,
1913, and G. R. Elliott, B.A.Se., was appointed Second Assistant to the Chief Hydrographer
on April 1st, 1913.

CONVENTIONS AND CONFERENCES.

In August p. ]M. Sauder and G. H. Whyte attended a convention of the Western Canada
Irrigation Association at Lethbridge, Alberta. As usual the convention was well attended
and the papers and addresses were very interesting and instructive. At the close of the
convention the delegates were shown over some irrigated farms in the \-icinity of Lethbridge.

In January 1914, G. H. Whyte attended a conference of the Western District Engineers
of the Water Resources Branch of the United States Geological Survey, as representative of
this office. It was held in the district office of the survey in Boise, Idaho, and was attended
by N. C. Grover, Chief Hydrographer of the U. S. Geological Survey, most of the District
Engineers of the Water Resources Branch in the Western States, a number of Assistant
Engineers, two representatives from the U. S. Reclamation Service, and three representatives
from Canada. The other Canadian representatives were R. G. Swan, Chief Engineer, British
Columbia Hydrographic Survey, Vancouver, B.C., and C E. Richardson, District Engineer,
British Columbia Hydrographic Survey, Nelson, B.C. While papers were not assigned to the
Canadian representatives, they took part in the discussions and were given the same conside-
tion as the District Engineers of the Water Resources Branch, and the conference was
alwavs glad to hear how the work is done in Canda. M. Whyte considers himself very fortu-
nate in having had the opportunity to attend this conference, and recommends that repre-
sentatives be sent to all such conferences that in\atations are received for. His report of the
conference was submitted some time ago, but as it deals more particularly with details
of engineering and administrative work, it is not attached for publication.

On February 20th and 21st, advantage was taken of the fact that nearly all the engineers
of this branch employed on stream measuremr at were in headquarters to hold a conference.
All the hydrographers were able to attend but F. R. Steinbarger and W. H. Storey. The
papers were quite satisfactory and showed that the engineers are taking a keen interest in
their work. Many important points were brought out in the papers and discussions.

It is hoped that another conference will be hold next winter and that other branches of
the government and other orgauizatioas doing stream maasurement work will be invited to
send representatives.

FUTURE WORK.

The appropriation for stream measurements for the fiscal year 1914-1915 is larger than
that of previous years and the work is therefore being extended.

A special effort was made this year to get records of the early spring run-off in the
Cypress Hills and Milk River districts. To do this two hydrograpers were sent out into each
of these districts early in March. Owing to the fact that there was a comparatively small
fall of snow during the past winter, the run-off was, it is believed, somewhat below the
average but the records will nevertheless be quite valuable.

Records of the flow of Milk River and almost all its important tributaries have been
taken near the international boundary for several years, but very few records have been
taken of Frenchman River and its tributaries near whore it crosses the international bounda-
ry, and a hydrographer has therefore been placed in the field to secure complete records of
these and other streams crossing the international boundary east of Frenchman River
during the present year.

INTRODUCTION ' 17

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

Several additional regular gauging stations will be established in Northern Alberta at an
early date, and as soon as they can be cached at a reasonable expense records will be taken
on all the important streams in Northern Alberta.

In 1913, investigations of the absorption and seepage losses in canals were commenced
on the canals of the Canadian Pacific Railwaj' Company near Calgary and Lethbridge. This
work will be continued and given special attention during 1914.

It is also proposed to maintain several additional regular gauging stations during the
coming winter.

DEFINITIONS.

r

The volume of water flowing in a stream is known as run-off or discharge. In expressing
it various units are used, depending upon the kind of work for which the data is needed. Those
used in this report are "second-feet," "acre-feet," "run-off per square mile" and "run-off in
depth in inches" and may be defined as follows:

"Second-foot" is an abbreviation for cubic foot per second and is the body of water
flowing in a stream one foot wide and one foot deep at the rate of one foot per second.

The "acre-foot" is the unit capacity used in connection with storage for irrigation work
and is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet. It is the quantity required to cover an acre to a depth
of one foot.

The expression "second-feet per square mile" means the average number of cubic feet of
water flowing each second from every square mile of drainage area on the assumption that the
rim-off is uniformly distributed.

"Depth in inches" means the depth of water in inches that would have covered the
drainage area, uniformly distribut d. if all the water could have accumulated on the sur-
face. This quantity is used for comparing run-off with rain-fall, which quantity is u&uaUy
given in depth in inches.

It should be noticed that "acre-feet" and "depth in inches" represent the actual quanti-
ties of water which are produced during the periods in question, while "second-feet," on the
contrary, is merelj'^ a rate of flow per second.

EXPLANATION AND USE OP TABLES.

The data obtained and the estimates made therefrom have been compiled in tabulated
form and for each regular gauging station are given, as far as available, the following data: —

1. Description of station.

2.' List of discharge measurements.

3. Table of daily gauge heights and discharges '

4. Table of monthly discharges and run-off.

The description of stations gives such general information about the locality and equip
ment as would enable the reader to find and use the station. It also gives, as far as possible
complete history of all the changes that have occured since the station was established and
that might affect the records in any way.

The list of discharge measurements gives the results of all the discharge measurements
that have been made at or in the vicinity of the gauging station or have been used in comple-
ting the records for the gauging station. It gives the date on which the measurement was
made, the name of the hydrographer, the width and area of cross-section, the mean velocity
of the current, the gauge height and the discharge in second feet.

The table of daily gauge heights and discharges given in this report is a combination of
two tables kept in the office of the survey, namely the table of daily gauge heights and the
station rating table. The table of daily gauge heights gives the daily fluctuations of the
surface of the water above the zero of the gauge, as reported by the observer. During high
water, two observations of the gauge were made at some stations and the gauge height
given in the table is the mean of the observation for the day. The discharge measure-
ments and uuage heights are the base data from which the other tables are computed. The
table of daily discharges is the discharge in second-feet, corresponding to the stage of the
stream, as given by the station rating table.

In the table of monthly discharge the column headed "Maximum" gives the mean flow
for the day when the mean gauge height was highest. As the gauge is the mean for the
day, there might have been short periods when the water and the corresponding discharge
were greater than given in this column. Likewise, in the column "Minimum" the quantity
given is the mean flow^ for the day when the mean gauge height was lowest. The column
headed "Mkan" is the average flow for each second during the month. The computations for
the quantities in the remaining columns have been based upon this mean. The drainage area
for each gauging station was marked off on the sectional maps of the Department and the
area taken off with a planimeter. In many districts, information regarding topographical
features is very incomplete and the computed areas are only approximate. As the surveys
of the Department are extended and completed these computations will be checked and, if
necessary, corrected.

METHODS OF MEASURING STREAM FLOW.

There are three distinct methods of determining the surface flow of streams: (1) by
measurements of slope and cross-section and the use of Chezy's and Kutter's formulae;
(2) by means of , weirs, which include any device or structure that by measuring the depth on a
crest or sill of known length and form, the flow of water may be determined; (3) by measuring
the velocity of tha current and the ero--.s-section. The third method is the one most commonly
used by this survey. The second is used when the flow is too small to be accurately deter-
mined "by the third, while the first is only used in making estimates of the discharge of a
stream when the only data available are the cross-section and slope.

Slope jNIethod of Determining Discharge. — The slope of a stream, or rather of a
section of a stream, is the difference in elevation between the upper and lower ends of the
section, commonly called the fall, divided by the distance or the length of the section. Slope
sections vary in length from two or three hundred feet to several hundred feet, depending
largely upon the nature of the stream.

INTRODUCTION 19

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

It is difficult to ascertain accurately the slope of the water surface in a stream, since in
nearly all streams there are pulsations in the water, causing the surface to rise and fall
locally. In most streams the slope of the bottom is far from uniform, and the flow of water in
anj' given section is more or less influenced by the flow in the adjacent section, above or
below. For this reason it is a good plan to consider a number of adjacent sections, compri-
sing a considerable length of the stream in one computation, being careful to take into
account the diversity- of cross-section at various places in the length.

In determining the slope of the surface of a stream, levels are taken of the water surface
at each end of the slope section, and referred to some datum or bench mark. A good plan is to
set firmly a stout wooden stake below the water surface at each end of the slope section, and
then to drive a nail into the top of each stake, so that the nail-head will exactly coincide with
the water surface. The difference in elevation between the two nail-heads, divided by the dis-
tance between the stakes, -wall give the slope.

The wetted perimeter is that portion of a stream channel that is in contact with the
water. The form or outline of the wetted perimeter of a stream has an important influence
upon the velocity of the current. It is usually determined graphically from the plotted
cross-section or may be measured by means of a flexible tape or chain after the flood has sub-
sided.

The hydraulic radius, which is sometimes called the mean radius of the channel below the
water surface is found by dividing the area of the cross-section (in sq. ft.) by the length of the
wetted perimeter (in feet).

The Chezv formula, which is the fundamental formula for stream discharge, is :

Q = AV

in which Q = the discharge of the stream in sec. ft.

A = the area of the cross-section in sq. feet.

V = the mean velocity of flow, in ft. per sec.
In applj-ing this formula to the determination of stream discharge, the mean velocity of a
stream is considered a function of the slope and of the wetted perimeter of the stream. This
may be expressed by formula as follows

in which er= the hydraulic radius of the channel,

es = the surface slope,
and C is a variable coefficient, depending upon the nature of the channel.

In determining the value of C for any given case it is customary to make use of Kutter's
formula, which is: —

.00281 1.811
41.6+ +

s n

c=

In this formula r and s have the same significance as in the Chezy formula and the new factor
n is called the coefficient of roughness. It is a variable coefficient, and its value is dependent
upon the size, shape, slope and degree of roughness of the channel. Tables of values of n are
given in various text books, but it is difficult to choose the correct value. It is therefore
advisable whenever possible to compute the value of n from a measured discharge. As the
slope method of determining discharge is seldom employed except to estimate flood discharge,
a current meter measurement is very often made at the slope section, during low water.
Having determined the mean velocity, slope and hydraulic radius at the time of the metering,

the value of C may be found from the formula V=C \l Ti or C= , Trautwine's Pocket

Book for CivU Engineers and other texts contain tables giving the value of n for different
values of r, s, and c. From these tables we can interpolate the proper value of n for a particu-
lar section of the stream, at low water stage. In most cases this value of n is applicable to
high water and flood conditions of the stream also and is used with values of r and s for the
high water or flood cross-section to determine the value of C at the higher stage. Having
determined the value of C the computation of the discharge is simple.

The results obtained by the slope method are in general only roughly approximate,
owing to the difficulty in obtaining accurate data and the uncertainty of the value of n to
be used.

Weir Method of Determining Discharge. — As yet few permanent weirs have been
constructed by this survey, but many regular weir measurements are made on small
streams by means of a temporary weir. The weir used consists of a wooden base of 2-inch
plank, to which is bolted a rectangular notch of three-eights inch steel with bevelled edges.

In making a measurement by means of a temporary weir, the following directions should
be followed as far as possible. The weir should be placed perpendicular and at right angles to
the bed of the stream with the crest level. The discharge should be free in so much as the

20 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

nappe should have sufficient fall to allow air to have free circulation underneath it, and the
head or depth on the crest should not exceed one-third of the lea^th. The channel of approach
should be several times as wide as the openins; and the depth of water in the bay or pond
should be at least twice the head on the weir, so as to eliminate velosity of approach and cross-
currents. In choosing a site for a weir, a point should be chosen that will fulfil the above
conditions and give a good sized bay or pond.

To set up a temporary weir, a dam of sods and earth is thrown across the stream, the weir
is set in place and the sods are tramped firmly around it to stop all leakage. On a stream with a
sandy bed, sods or clay must be placed on the bottom for a few feet upstream to form a
mattress to prevent the undermining of the dam.

After the bay ha.s filled up, the head of the water is observed by taking the difference in
elevation of the crest of the weir and the elevation of the water surface in the bay at a distance
of 4 to 10 feet from the weir, with an engineer's level. Two common methods of getting the
elevation of the water surface are (1) hold the levelling rod on a stone or other solid body under
water and subtract the depth of water on the rod from the sight on the rod; (2) drive a pin
divided into tenths of feet into the bed of the stream so that an even tenth is level with the
surface of the water, then hold the levelling rod on the top of the pin and add the length of pin
above the water to the sight on the rod.

When the head of water has been determined the discharge, is computed by using one of
the standard formulae which will suit the case. Tables giving the discharges for different
beads and lengths of crests are pubUshed in many engineering texts.

The formula used by this survey for rectangular sharp-crested weirs is:

<3=3.33 (L — .2H) H^/2 being a modification of Francis' formula, to
allow for end contractions and elimination of velocity of approach.

in which Q = discharge in sec. ft.; L = length of crest in feet; H — head in feet.

Measurements by means of temporary weirs should be made some distance above or below
the gauge. If they are made close to a gauge, the gauge must be read before the weir is
placed in the stream and the pond must be allowed to run off after the weir is removed before
the gauge is re-read.

Velocity Method of Determining Discharge. — There are two methods of deter-
mining the velocity of flow of a stream, namely, direct and indirect. In the direct method
by which the velocity is determined by means of floats, the liability of error is large, and the
results far from satisfactory. This method is seldom used except for very rough estimates or
when a current meter cannot be used. There are three common kinds of floats, viz: surface,
sub-surface and tube or rod floats. In each the procedure is the same. A straight piece of
channel is selected for the run and two cross-sections are taken at some convenient distance
apart, usually from 100 to 200 feet. They are then divided into strips by means of a tagged
wire. The velocity in each strip is then measured by noting the time taken by the float in
traversing the run or distance between the two cross-sections. As the time and distance are
both known the velocity can easily be computed. The velocity, whether measured by
surface, subsurface or tube floats, must be multiplied by a coefficient less than unity to re-
duce to the mean velocity before being used to compute the discharge.

The indirect or current meter method is the most reliable and most widely used methodof
determining the velocity of the flow of a stream. The meter used by this survey is the Price
Patent, manufactured by W. & L. E. Gurley, Troy.N.Y. It consists of six cups attached to
a vertical shaft which revolves on a conical hardened steel point when immersed in moving
water. The number of revolutions is indicated electrically. The rating or relation between
the velocity of the moving water and the revolutions of the wheel is determined for each
meter by drawing it through still water for a given distance at different speeds and noting the
number of revolutions for each run. F'rom this data a rating table is prepared which gives the
velocity per second of moving water for any number of revolutions in a given time interval.

In making a measurement with a current meter, a number of points, called measuring
points, are measured off above and in the plane of the measuring section, at which observa-
tions of depth and velocity are taken. These points are spaced equally for those parts of the
section where the flow is uniform and smooth, but should be spaced unequally for other parts
according to the discretion and judgment of the engineer. In general, the points should not be
spaced farther apart than 5 per cent, of the distance between piers, nor farther apart than the
approximate mean depth of the section at the time of measurement.

The measuring points divide the total cross-section into elementary strips at each end of
which observations of depth and velocity are made. The discharge of any elementary strip is
the product of the average of the depths at the ends, the width of the strip, and the average
of the mean velocities at the two ends of the strip. The sum of the discharges of the elementary
strips is the total discharge of the stream.

The accuracy of a discharge measurement taken at a velocity area station is dependent
on two factors, the accuracy with which the area of the cross-section and the mean velocity of
the flow normal to that section are measured. The greatest, and the most common errors in
measurements of discharge are caused by erroneous soundings. Errors in soundings by weight
and lino are due to the weight being carried down-stream, or, sometimes, to the bowing of the
line. Both these causes make the soundings too great. Errors in soundings with rods are due

INTRODUCTION 21

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

to the rod not being perpendicular, to the water rising on the rod, and to the rod sinking in
the bed. In order to verify the accuracy of soundings made at rnedium or high stages, they
should be compared with those at low water. The mean velocitj^ is also very difficult to
measure accurateh^ because it is constantly changing. It varies not only from the surface
to the bottom but from one bank of the stream to the other, making it necessary to measure
it at a number of points.

METHODS OF DETERMINING MEAN VELOCITY.

There are a number of different methods of determining the mean velocity at the ends of
these strips, or, as it is commonly called, the mean velocity in a vertical, namely, multiple-
point, single-point, and integration. These three principal multiple-point methods in general
use are the vertical velocity-curve, three-point and two-point method.

Vertical Velocity Curve IMethod of Determining ^SIeax Velocity. — In his
method the centre of the meter is held as close to the surface of the water as is possible, being
careful to keep it out of reach of all surface disturbances, and then at a number of different
depths throughout the vertical. The velocity at each position of the meter is recorded.
These observations are then plotted with velocities in feet per second as abscissae and their
corresponding depths in feet as ordinates and a mean curve is drawn through the points.
The mean velocity for the vertical is obtained by dividing the area bounded by the curve and
its axis by the depth. In the absence of a planimeter for measuring the area, the depth is
di\ided into 5 to 10 equal parts, and the velocities of the center ordinates of tliese parts are
noted. The mean of these velocities will ven,' closely approximate the mean in the vertical.

It is often more convenient, when the depth is a number of feet and a fraction, as 7.4, to
di\ide the depth into 7 parts of a foot width, and a part of 0.4 foot width. Then the velocity
to enter for the narrow part is 0.4 of the velocity at the centre of it.

The vertical velocity curve is useful is studying the manner in which velocities occur in a
vertical. From a study of a number of these curves the other shorter methods of determining
mean veloeitj' are deduced. On account of the length of time taken to complete a measurement,
this method is not used in general routine measurements, except during the winter, for a
change of stage is almost sure to occur during a measurement on a large stream which conter-
balances the increased accuracy. For this reason its use is limited to the determination of the
coefficient to be used in the reduction of values obtained by other methods of measuring
velocity to the true value, to the measurement of velocities under new and unusual conditions
of flow, and for measurements under ice.

Three-Point Method op Determining ^NIean Velocity. — This method gives the
greatest accuracy outside of the vertical velocity curve and is the method most commonly
used by this survey during the open season. The meter is held at 0.2, 0.6 and 0.8 depth.
The mean velocity is then obtained by dividing by 4 the sum of the velocities at 0.2 and 0.8
depth plus twice the velocity at 0.6 depth. It is the best method to use during low water
or in wide shallow streams having a rough bed where the thread of mean velocity varies
considerably from the 0.6 depth.

Two-Point JNIethod of Determining Mean Velocity. — In studying the vertical
curves made at a number of different points and under varied conditions, it has been found
that the mean of the velocities occun-ing at 0.2 and 0.8 depth gives very nearly the mean
velocity in the vertical. Use is made of this fact in the two-point method of determining
mean velocity, the meter being held at 0.2 and 0.8 depth in the vertical. This method has
been found more accurate than the single point method and the time required for a metering
is not very much greater. This method has been found to give, also, a very close approximate
to the mean velocity in measurements of ice-covered streams, although these flow under very
different conditions from those of open water.

Single-Point Method of Determining Mean Velocity. — Experiments made
under most favourable conditions and extending over a long period have established the
point of mean velocity in a vertical at 0.6 of the depth. Therefore the error resulting from
the use of the 0.6 depth as the depth of mean velocity is vei'y small though in some few cases
a study of the vertical velocity curve will show the need of a coefficient to reduce the observed
velocities to the mean. The variation of the coefficieut from unity in individual cases is,
however, greater than in the two or three point method and the general results are not as
satisfactory. For that reason this method is not employed very extensively by the survey.

In the other principal single-point method the mstcr is held near the surface, at from 0.5
to 1 foot below the surface, care being taken to sink the instrument below the influence of
"wind or waves. The resulting velocities must ba multiplied by a coelfinent to reduce them to
mean velocities. This coefficient as found by a large number of experiments, varies from 0.78
to 0.98, depending upon the depth and speed of the stream. The deeper the stream and the
greater the velocit3', the larger the coefficient. In flood work coeffisients varying from 0.90 to
0.9.5 should be used. This method is only used when the curreat is too strong to permit the
sinking of the meter to any great depth below the surface of the water. It is often employed
at times of flood, or when a stream is carrying a lot of drift wood or ice.

22 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. I9I4

Integration Method of Determining Mean Velocity. — This method of deter-
mining the mean velocity in a vertical consists in moving the meter at a slow uniform speed
from the bed of the stream to the surface and return in a vertical direction, the time and
revolutions being observed. In travelling through all parts of the vertical the meter is acted
upon by each and every thread of velocity from the bed to the surface of the stream, and the
resulting observations determine the mean in that vertical.

This method is very useful in cheeking the results of other methods. It is, however,
seldom used by this survey as the Price meter is not suited to observations by this method,
since the vertical motion of the meter causes the wheel to revolve.

GAUGING STATIONS.

The first step is to select a suitable locality for a gauging station. Although apparently
simple, this is really a difficult task. Not only must the water be moving in nearly straight
lines over a solid bed and between well defined banks, but the place must be accessible at
moderate cost and there must be living near a competent person who can be engaged to serve
as observer. Permanent gauging stations should only be selected after a very thorough recon-
naissance. In the irrigation districts and in more thickly populated districts there is more or
less diversion of water. This is apt to complicate matters for the hydrographer, for a gauging
station above all works may not include aU the tributaries of the stream and it is often
necessary to establish gauging stations at several points along the streams, and on tributaries,
canals, and pipe lines in order to obtain complete information regarding the water supply in a
particular stream.

There are throe classes of gauging stations, namely, wading, bridge and cable stations.
The wading station can of course only be used in the case of small streams having a maximum
depth at its highest stage of 3 feet or less. The equipment for a wading station is small,
consisting usually of a plain staff gauge, graduated to feet and hundredths, and fixed vertically
to one of the banks of the stream. For convenience a measuring line, usually a wire with tags,
may be fixed permanently at this section. When taking the reading, the hydrographer should
stand below and to one side of the meter so as to not cause eddies in the water.

Bridge stations, because of their permanency and the freedom of movement allowed the
hydrographer, are much preferred. Very often, however, more particularly in swift currents,
the piers materially affect the accuracy of the results. When the gauge cannot be attached
to a pier, it is often attached horizontally to the guard-rail or floor of the bridge, and the
height of the stream is found by lowering a weight by a chain over a pulley. It is indicated by
a marker on the chain. Distances of three, five or ten feet, according to the size of the stream
are marked on the lower chord of the down stream side of the bridge, to serve as a measuring
line.

Frequently it is impossible to establish a permanent gauging station at a bridge. In that
case the wire cable of a ferry can be utilized, or, if that is not available, a permanent wire
cable is stretched across the river. For spans of average length a galvanized wire cable three-
fourths of an inch in diameter is safe. It is supported at each bank by means of high struts or
by passing it through the crotch of a tree. The cable is run into the ground and anchored
securely to a "dead man" buried at least six feet below the surface, or, if convenient, it is
anchored to the lower part of the trunk of a tree. A turnbuckle is inserted in the cable
between the strut and anchorage to permit tightening the cable when it begins to sag. A
permanent measuring line, usually a wire, with tags 5 or 10 feet apart, is stretched across the
stream just above the cable. A cage large enough to carry two men and instruments is
constructed and suspended from the cable by means of east iron pulleys. The cage is moved
from point to point by hand. A stay line, usually quarter-inch guy wire, is stretched across
the stream about thirty to forty feet upstream from the cable, and securely fastened. By
passing a sash cord through a pulley hung on this stay line the current meter is prevented
from being carried down stream.

LOW VELOCITY LIMITATIONS.

Owing to the presence of a slight amount of friction in the current meter, a certain
definite velocity is required to make the wheel revolve, i.e., to overcome the frictional resis-
tance of the wheel. For this reason the meter is unsuitable for .the measurement of low
velocities, approaching this value. This velocity, which is required to overcome friction, and
which is obtained from the meter rating curve, is called the velocity of no flow for the particu-
lar meter referred to. It varies in different types of meters, and also slightly in meters of the
same tj^pe, according to the time the meter is in use, but very seldom exceeds 0.2 foot per
second in any meter. From a number of observations the low velocity limit, below which
values of velocity are unreliable, is found to be 0.5 foot per second. In many eases at low
stages the gauging station on a stream becomes unsuitable for a discharge measurement owing
to the mean velocity in the section falling below the safe limit. In such instances where it is
possible to wade the stream a suitable gauging section may be located within a reasonable
distance of the regular station and the discharge measurements made at this point. When

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

a ganging is made at a cross-section other than the regular station, sufficient soundings
should be made at the latter at the time of the gauging to develop the cross-section and
compute the area. The measurement is thus referred to the regular gauging station and the
mean velocity and area at the regular section is reported and used in the office computations.

OFFICE COMPUTATIONS.

Rating Curves and Tables. — When a series of discharge measurements has been
made at a gauging station a rating curve is constructed for that station, showing graphically
the discharge corresponding to any stage of the stream within the limits covered by the gaug-
ings. This curve, as it is usually drawn, has as abscissae, the discharges in second-feet and as
ordinates, the corresponding gauge heights at which the discharges were made. A smooth
curve is drawn through the resulting set of points and from this curve the discharges at any
stage within the limits of the curve are taken. Some measurements may be more reliable than
others, owing to more or less favourable conditions at different times of gauging, or to other
causes. In order to obtain the weight of the different measurements, curves with area and
mean velocity, as abscissae, and gauge heights as ordinates, are also drawn. From a study of
these curves any discrepancies in a measurement, either in its area or mean velocity, may be
detected. Should it be necessary to extend the rating curve beyond the limits of actual
discharge measurements the area and mean velocity curves may be constructed to the stages
for which the discharge curve is desired and the latter found by taking the product of the two
curves. The discharge curve under natural conditions of flow is always convex to the gauge
height axis. The area curve is either a straight line or is convex to the gauge height axis,
except in the ease of overhanging banks when it becomes concave to the axis. The mean
velocity curve is always concave to the gauge height axis, except in eases where standing
water occurs below the stage of no-flow. In this ease the curve will assume a reverse form,
starting from the gauge height of zero flow with a curve convex to the gauge height axis and
gradually reversing to a curve concave to this axis. In plotting all three curves the hori-
zontal and vertical scales should be chosen that the curves may be used within the limits of
accuracy for the work, and in their critical position will make, as nearly as possible, angles of
45 degrees with each axis.

The rating curve being constructed it becomes necessary to prepare a station rating
table, giving the discharge at any stage of the stream within the limits of the daily gauge
height obserA^ations on record. From this rating table the daxly discharges corresponding to
the daily gauge heights are read and tabulated. The rating table is constructed for tenths,
half-tenths, or hundredths of feet, according to the readings of the gauge to which it is to be
applied. The discharges for this table are read directly from the rating curve and are then
adjusted so that the differences for successive stages shall be either constant or gradually
increasing, but never decreasing, unless the station is affected by backwater.

Daily Discharge, ]Monthly JNIean, and Run-Off. — The rating table being made
to cover the range of daily gauge height observations, the next procedure in the computations
is to make out a table of daily discharges from this rating table. The dail.y gauge heights are
copied as they were sent in by the observer and opposite each the corresponding discharge is
filled in from the rating table. The monthly discharge is found by totaUing the daily dis-
charges for the month in question, and the monthly mean is obtained by dividing this" total
by the number of days in the month.

The run-off is computed with two different sets of units, depending upon the kind of
work. for which the data is intended, as follows: (1) Run-off in inches is the depth to which a
plane surface equal in extent to the drainage area would be covered if all the water (lowing from
it in a given time were conserved and uniformly distributed thereon; it is used for comparing
run-off with rain-fall, which is usually expressed in depth in inches. The monthly mean
run-off in second-feet is divided by the area of the drainage basin in square miles to find the
monthly mean run-off per square mile. This result, reduced to run-off in depth in inches for
the monthly period, is in the form required.

(2) The run-off in acre-feet is the form of most use in connection with storage. An
acre-foot is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet, and is the quantity of water requu-ed to cover an
acre to the depth of one foot. The monthly mean run-off in second-feet is used for the
computation of run-off in acre-feet. The monthly mean is I'educed to cubic feet per month
and this quantity divided by 43,560 gives the r.m-off in acre-feet.

The run-off of the stream being computed both in depth in inches and in acre-feet for
each month, the run-off for the period, during which t>bservations of run-off were made, is
found by the summation of the amounts of run-off for the several months making up this
period.

Changing Conditions of Channel. — On streams such as Milk River, whose bed is in
a constant state of motion, measurements of discharge should be made every few days,
otherwise considerable data relating to changes cannot be obtained. For discharges on days
other than those on which measurements are taken, the interpolation method is used. The
two methods of interpolation in general use are the Stout and Bolster methods.

24 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The Stout method deals with the correction of the gauge heights. A curve is drawn,
using the difference between the actual gauge heights at the time of measurement and the
gauge height corresponding to the measured discharge as ordinates and the corresponding
days of the month as abscissae. From an irregular curve drawn through these points correc-
tions for gauge heights can be made for days on which there was no discharge measurement.
When the discharge is greater than that given by the curve the correction is positive and
vice-versa. Each daily gauge height is corrected by the amount shown on the correction
curve, and the corresponding discharge taken from an approximate rating curve for the
station.

The Bolster method deals more particularly with the modification of the discharge.
Results of discharge measurements covering a whole year or season are plotted, and though
considerably scattered, will define one or more regular curves, called standard curves, the
number and position of each indicating the radical changes. Where the river bed changes
from day to day, the position of the standard curve also varies and must pass through the
points indicating the different daj^s. The points indicating two successive measurements are
joined by a line, which for short distances on the cross-section paper is a straight line and
otherwise a curve. This line is divided into a number of equal parts, each indicating an
intervening day, the assumption being that as the change during this period is gradual the
daily rating must pass through each point or day, as represented by the divisions. A simple
and convenient way of making these interpolations and moving the daily rating curve is to
make a tracing of the standard curve with a vertical line of reference. By keeping the lines
of reference coincident this curve can be shifted into any desired position and the discharge
read for any gauge height.

WINTER RECORDS.

Formation of Ice and Ice Conditions. — Perhaps the greatest difficulties in stream
measurements are met with in the early part of the winter, just as the streams are commen-
cing to freeze up. Especially is this true in the swift running streams in or near the moun-
tains. Needle and anchor ice often form in large quantities in rapids and flowing in masses
with the water make gaugings very difficult and unreliable. Even after a permanent ice
cover is obtained at the gauging station this ice will, in some cases, obstruct the channel
below the station and cause "bactw-ater".

A further difficulty is that the surface ice usually forms along the edges of the stream for
some time before forming in the centre of the channel. At first this may be broken away if
the stream is small and open water measurements made, but later it is necessary to take
some observations through holes in the ice along the edge. As the streams get farther away
from the mountains their velocity decreases, and fewer rapids occur along their course.
There is then less trouble with needle and anchor ice, and a permanent ice cover forms much
more quicklj'.

In many eases the section used during the summer is very unsuitable for making measu-
rements during the winter. It may be. (a) too wide and shallow or flowing in two channels
during the winter, due to low water; (b) partially open due to swift running water or warm
water running in; (e) affected by needle and anchor ice either by flowing in the water, or
causing backwater; (d) located where the snow drifts over the ice to a great depth; (e) that
it is likely to have a rough ice cover or pile up with ice, due to swift water and a rough bed;
(f) that there is a tendancy for ice jams to occur, with consequent backwater, etc.

It is therefore often necessary to choose a new section for winter observations. This
should be done before freeze-up, for then the width, depth, uniformity of flow and conditions
above and below can be easily noted. The most suitable stations for winter measurements
are those which have. a long stretch of very smooth, sluggish water above, and a rapid fall
below.

Discharge Measurements. — In winter as in summer, the daily discharges of a stream
are computed from frequent discharge measurements, and daily gauge height observations.
The discharge measurements are made through holes in the ice from five to ten or even
twenty feet apart, depending upon the size of the stream, and large enough to allow the
current meter to pass through freely. The gaugings are made in the same manner as at open
sections except that the depth of the stream is taken as the distance from the bottom of the
ice to the bed of the stream. The soundings, however, are always referred to the surface of the
water in the holes, the distance from the surface of the water to the bottom of the ice being
measured and subtracted from the soundings to obtain the depth.

The vertical velocitj' curve method is usually used for the determination of the mean
velocity in the vertical. A curve is plotted for each vertical, and the mean velocity is deter-
mined in the usual manner. These curves vary greatly as to form for different kinds and
conditions of channel.

The typical curve, however, differs from that obtained from an open water observation
in that it is drawn back more at the surface, owing no doubt to greater friction between the ice
and the water as compared with the water and the atmosphere. As a result there are two
points in the vertical at which the thread of mean velocity occurs under an ice cover. These
points are near 0.2 and 0.8 of the total depth below the bottom of the ice, and the mean of the

of the velocities at these two depths will give fairly accurate results, but when close estimates
of the discharges are required, and the conditions are not very favourable, the vertical
velocity method should be used.

It is found that when all the holes are opened on a small swift stream, there are sometimes
vertical pulsations of the water in the holes, which affect the velocity readings. This can
usually be avoided by only opening one hole at a time, and filling it in again with ice and snow
as soon as the observation is finished. It can also be overcome by inserting a thin sheet of
galvanized tin or iron at the bottom of the hole, after the meter has been lowered into the
water. The meter should always be held near the upstream side of the hole.

In using the meter care must be taken to keep it under the water as much as possible to
prevent ice from forming around the bsarings. It is a good plan to clean and oil the meter
indoors before starting out to make a gauging.

Gauges and Gauge Observations. — The gauge is usually read once each day, the
observer noting the elevation of the Avater as it rises in a hole cut through the ice, the height
of the top of the ice, the thielmess of the ice, presence of needle or slush ice, snow on top of ice,
ice jams, and any sudden changes in temperature. To do this the observers are provided
with an ice chisel for chopping holes, and an L — shaped ice scale to measure the thickness of
the ice.

A difficulty which arises, in obtaining the thickness of the ice is that in a hole kept open
for some time the ice wears away around the bottom of the hole, and may make it necessary
to cut a new hole nearby, or to enlarge the original.

Any form of gauge may be used, but the chain gauge is the most satisfactory as the
staff gauge, being frozen to the ice, heaves with it, and also in cutting away the ice from
around it the figures are effaced. The automatic gauge gives trouble with the well freezing
over.

Estimates of Daily Discharge. — -While the run-off, particularly during the winter
months, does not vary directly in accordance with the precipitation, the rate at which it
reaches the streams is of course, dependent almost entirely upon the climatic conditions.
The climate in the mountains is subject to great extremes but during the winter almost the
entire precipitation is in the form of snow.

There is therefore very little surface run-off and the flow of the streams comes almost
entirely from the glaciers, ground waters and lake storage, and except for the losses due to
freezing and the slight increases, due to the melting of snow and ice by ehinooks (warm winds) ,
the flow in the streams would remain constant or would change gradually.

There are, however, certain local conditions in Western Canada which make it excep-
tionally difficult to make estimates of the daily discharge during the winter. The gauge
height in manj' cases fluctuates very much, and often sudden rises or drops occur. These
rises are often explained by the fact that during very cold spells a great deal of slush, frazil,
and anchor ice is formed and chokes up the channel, thus raising the surface of the water,
when it reality the discharge is decreasing. Then, again, a ehinook causes a sudden rise in
temperature and the discharge is often increased while at the same time the gauge height
gradually lowers, evidently because the warmer weather and water have melted out a lot of
the ice from the channel and given it a greater carrying capacity.

In order to make reliable estimates of the daily discharge, gaugings must be made at
short intervals and the weather conditions and temperatures in the whole of the drainage area
above the station must be very carefully studied.

W. G. Iloyt, District Engineer, Water Resources Branch, U. S. Geological Survey,
has made an exhaustive study of methods for estimating the flow when streams are frozen.
The various methods described by him in an article in "Engineering News" on April 10, 1913,
and Water-Supply Paper 337, published by the United States Geological Survej% in 1913. and
modifications of them are used. The graphic method of interpolation has been found to be
generally applicable, but as the precipitation during the winter months has so little affect
upon the run-off during that period, it is seldom plotted on the sheets. It is also considered
that the extremes and ranges of temperatures are better guides for interpolation than the mean
temperatures and the minimum and maximum temperatures are both plotted and given due
consideration rather than the mean temperatures.

The weather conditions and temperatures at the gauging station are not always typical
for the whole drainage basin above and care must therefore be taken to have the meteoro-
logical observations made at some other place, or if necessary, at two or more places. Of
course, care must be taken to study all the possible conditions which may affect the estimates.

Plate 4 shows typical conditions and illustrates the graphic method of interpolating the
daily discharges.

RATING CURRENT METERS.

Each meter is rated before being used, in order to determine the relation between the
revolutions of the wheel and the velocity of the water. The meter is driven at a uniform rate
of speed through still water for a given distance, and the number of revolutions of the wheel
and the time are recorded. From this data the number of revolutions per second and the
corresponding velocity per second are computed. Tests are made for speeds varj'ing from the
slowest which will cause the wheel to revolve to several feet per second. The results of
these runs, when plotted with revolutions per second as abscissae, and velocity in feet per
second as ordinates, locate points that define the meter rating-curve, which for all meters is
practically a straight line. From this curve a meter rating table is prepared. Theoretically,
the rating for all meters of the same make and type should be the same, but as a result of slight
variations in construction and in the bearing of the wheel on the axis at different velocities,
the ratings differ.

After a meter has been in use for some time the cups may have received small injuries,
or the bearing of the wheel on the axis may have changed owing to unavoidable rough usage.
These changes will affect the running of the meter and change its rating. As a consequence
each meter is re-rated at regular intervals and a new rating curve and table prepared.

Descriptions of the rating station, discussions of the methods employed, and the results of
ratings, are given in the Reports of Progress of Stream Measurements for the years 1911
and 1912.

ATHABASCA RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN 27

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

ATHABASCA RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Athabasca River rises on the eastern slope of Rocky Mountains and flows in a northeast-
erly direction for about one thousand miles, eventually emptying into Lake Athabasca.

The Athabasca basin forms the most southerly portion of the great Mackenzie system
and the portion dealt with in this report comprises only the headwaters.

Rising in country very similar to the watershed of the other streams of importance in
Alberta, it flows out of the mountains and then through foothill country. Prom the foothills to
the lake the basin consists of stretches of muskeg and uplands, well timbered with spruce and
pine.

The general character of the basin is such that the winter precipitation or snowcover is
conserved to a great extent and floods in the early spring are not usual. However in June,
July and August rains and warm winds cause the upper parts of the system to discharge largo
quantities of the snow water from the higher peaks and glaciers and when rains of any
magnitude occur the invariable result is a flood. The muskeg country is a great source of
storage but, when its capacity is reached, it accelerates rather than retards the run-off.

The main transcontinental lines of the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Canadian Northern
Railways cross the upper portion of this drainage basin, and transportation is now a much
easier problem than in the past.

]Many valuable deposits of coal, limestone and other minerals are found in this basin, and,
on account of these as well as the many power possibilities and stretches of timber and pulp-
wood, it is expected that this country will develop very much during the next few years.

During 1913, a few stations were established in this basin and a regular hydrographer
employed who made a number of miscellaneous measurements. As the country is settled,
more stations will be established where necessary and much better records obtained.

A very full description of this drainage basin is attached as an appendix to this report

MIETTE RIVER NEAR JASPER.

This station was established August 23, 1913, by G. J. Smith. It is located on the
S.W. H Sec. 9, Tp. 45, Rge. 1, W. 6th, Mer., at the second traffic bridge about 2 i^ miles
southwest of Jasper, and about one mile upstream from the mouth of the river.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to the
downstream face of the left pier. The zero of the gauge (elev. 8S.45) is referred to a spike
head (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the top of the left abutment on the downstream side.

The channel is straight for 150 feet above and 100 feet "below the station. Both banks are
high, well wooded, and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is gravel and sand but is
not liable to shift. The current is swift,

Measurenients are made with a meter and weights from the downstream side of the
bridge, which is a three span timber structure. The initial point for soundings is the bench
mark referred to.

During 1913, no observations of gauge height were obtained.

ATHABASC.^. RIVER .KT .TASFER.

Thi.s station was established March 4. 1913. l^y V. Meek. It is located on the N. W. H
Sec. 15, Tp. 45, Kge. 1, W. 6th Mer., and is one half mile east of the Grand Trunk Pacific
Station and aliout three-fourths of a mile below the mouth of the Miette River.

The gauRe. which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed at the left
bank about 200 feet downstream from the cable. The zero of the gauge, (elev. 83.81) is
referred to a iiermanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located 20 feet upstream from
the gauge.

Tlu' channel is straight for about 800 feet above and below the station. The left bank is
high and will not overflow, while the right is low and liable to overflow. A small channel
some 70 yards from the main stream on the right side has to b(» measured during high
water. Tlie bed of the stream is of gravel which shifts slighly during flood stages. At low
water the channel is broken into two channels by gravel liar.-?. The current is fairly swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the cable and car. Th(> initial point for soun-
dings is the cable frame oil the left bank. Distances are marked on the cable every ten feet.
The small channel on the right side is measured by wading.

During 1913 the gauge was read once daily for various periods by Lawrence MacDonald,
H. A Nutting and George Thomp.son.

ROCKY RIVER NEAR HAWES.

This station was established July 3rd, 1913, bj' G. J. Smith. It is located on the N.W. ^
See. 13, Tp. 48, Rge. 28, W. 5th Aler., about three-fourths of a mile east of Hawes Station on
the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and about 300 yards from the point where the Roekj' enters
the Athabasca River.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to the
cribbing of the bridge on the right bank. The zero of the rod, (elev. 90.91) is referred to a
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the downstream side of the right abutment of
the bridge and marked B.M. ^"ith blue paint.

The channel is straight for 150 feet above and 200 feet below the station. Both banks
are low above and below the bridge but the protecting wall above and below the bridge
wiU keep the stream from overflowingat the station. The bed of the stream is of gravel
and wiU shift at flood stages. The bridge pier divides the channel into two sections at
high stages. The current is swift.

^Measurements are made from the downstream side of the railway bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the stream face of the right abutment and is marked on the bridge floor
with an arrow and I. P. in blue paint.

During 1913, the gauge rod was read twice each day by H. G. Harden.

LOBSTICK KIVER NEAR EXTWISTLE. , ■

This station was established on July 11, 1913, by G. J. Smith. It is located on a wooden
bridge on the N.E. J^ Sec. 30, Tp. 53, Rge. 7, W. 5th Mer., about 1 mile upstream from
where this river empties into the Pembina river, and about 23'2 miles northwest of the village
of Entwistle.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to the
right bank 40 feet dowoistream from the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96. 17) is
referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) ; the bench mark is a nail head on top of the
6th log below the bridge floor, on the right side of the first pier, 28.5 feet from the I. P. and
on the downstream side of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 200 feet below the station. Both banks
are high and wooded, and will not overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of rocks and
gravel and is liable to shift. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge, with cun-ent
meter, rods and stay wire. The initial point for soundings is an arrow head marked LP. cut in
the woodwork of the right abutment on the downstream side of the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by C R. McKillop.

ATHABASCA RIVER AT ATHABASCA.

This station was established February 27. 1913, by V. Meek It is located on the S.E. %
Sec. 20, Tp. 66, Rge. 22, W. 4th Mer.. in the town of Athabasca.

The gauge, which is a plain staff divided to feet and half-tenths, is attached to a pier a
little above the ferry cable and about .jO feet from the left bank.

Measurements of the winter discharge were obtained at this station and the Public
Works of Canada obtained gauge heights. It is e.xpected that full data on this station will be
obtained next year which will be published in the report for 1914.

NORTH SASKATCHEWAN DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Deacriptiott.

The North Saskatchewan River draws its principal water supply from the eastern slope
of the Rocky mountains. The basin is bounded on the south by those of the Red Deer and
South Saskatchewan Rivers and on the north by those of the Athabasca and t^hurchiU
Rivers. The general trend of the stream from its source to where it joins the South Saskatche-
wan, a few miles below the City of Prince Albert, and forms the Saskatchetwan River, is
easterly.

The basin of the river easily divides itself into five parts or divisions, each of which
requires a separate des riptioii to enable one to understand clearly the conditions of run-off.

The first or upper section consists of the eastern slope of the Rocky mountain.s . While
this part of the basin is not the greatest in area it supplies the greater part of the run-off. In
glaciers and the perpetual snows of the higher peaks, innumerable small streams rise, which
form the main stream and its larger tributaries. These streams have well deliue<l rocky
valleys and considerable fall. The upper regions of this section are not well wooded and allow
of a rapid run-off of melting snows or rains.

East of this first section is a division which consists of the foothills which are for the most
part well covered with forest and \'egetalile growth and forms i)robalily the largest in area of
the five sections. Here also is a ver\- large source of supply for the stream but due to its
cover it is a more regulated supply than the first section. In this section the main stream is
joined by the Clearwater and Brazeau Rivers, two of the most important tributaries of the
whole river basin. The streams in this section flow through deep valleys with fairly permanent
beds and medium slopes.

From a little west of the City of Edmonton to the mouth of the Vermilion River the
country is of a parklike nature with large stretches of prairie. This .section is small in area
and has not a very large run-off. The principal tributaries are the Sturgeon and Vermilion
Rivers, the first of which drains in from the wooded country of the north, the latter from the
prairie sections of the south. The main s.ream is in a well defined valley with large flats
along its course and a more or less permanent bed Avith a small slope.

Below the third section to a little above the (Mty of I'rince Albert is a division which
has little drainage into the river. It consists of jirairie ui)lands for the most part, with small
patches of timber to the north. The stream widens out into shallow reaches full of .shifting
sand bars and luis very little slope. The vail y while still well defined is also much wider. In
this section the main stream is fed by the Battle liiver, which heads in Battle I^jike. and
flows eastwartl through park land and prairie sections south of the main river until it emp-
ties into it at the town of Battleforil.

The last division is one in whicii the river with a greater s ope and more permanent bed
narrows cou.siderably, as does also the valley. The run-off in this division is mostly from the
north, which consists of well wooded country drained by a number of small streams.

XORTH SASKATCHEWAN DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSrONAL PAPER No. 25c

During 1913, stations were established on the Sturgeon River at St. Albert and on the
Battle River at Ponoka. and cables, were erected on the main river and on the Clearwater
River near Rocky Mountain House; the latter will enable us to obtain records at these points
during 1914.

A description of flood conditions in this basin may be found on pages 30 and 31 in the
Report of the Progress of Stream ^leasurements for 1912.

NORTH .SASKATCHEWAN' RIVER AT PRINCE ALBERT.

This station was established October 2, 1911. by J. C. Keith. It is located at the Cana-
dian Northern Railway and traffic bridge in the city of Prince Albert on river lot No. 76
Prince Albert Settlement.

The gauge is of the standard chain type reading to feet and hundredths. The zero of the
gauge (elev. 1456.097) is refen-ed to a permanent Public Works Department of Canada bench
mark(assumed elev. 1489.202 Public Works Department— elev. 1403. .502 above mean sea level.
Topographical Surveys Branch 1913,) located on the top of the right abutment on its
downstream side and marked "P.W.D.B.M. 176". The gauge is situated in the second span
from the right bank on the downstream side of the railway bridge; the length of chain from
the bottom of the Aveight to the marked is 40.41 feet.

The channel is straight for about 1000 feet above and 800 feet below the station. Both
banks are high and will not overflow in ordinary floods. The bed is composed of coarse
gravel and boulders with a silting of sand near the piers.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge, which is a
seven-span steel swing structure on cement piers and abutments. The initial point for
soundings is 25 feet north of the iron post at the end of the handrail of the bridge on the
downstream side, and is suitable marked on the guard rail of the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by W. iMoodie, J. A. Fox, and W. H. Storey.

Owing to a request by the City of Prince Albert and the Water Powers Branch of this
department, a resident hydrographer was employed to make measurement three times a week
through the winter season of 1913-1914; therefore the estimates for the period December 8th
to 31st are of a high degree of accuracy.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER AT BATTLEFORD.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established May 16, 1911, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located at the
traffic bridge in the town of Battleford, on the N.E. % Sec. 29. and the S. W. % Sec. 33, Tp.
43, Rge. 16, W. 3rd Mer. A large island in the river at this point divides the stream into two
channels and the river is spanned by two steel bridges, one over each channel. The bridge
over the north channel is a five-span steel structure on cement piers and abutments; the south
bridge is a three-span steel structure on cement piers and abutments. The two channels
necessitate the existence of two gauges, one in each channel.

The gauge in the north channel is of the standard chain type, located on the floor of the
bridge at the centre of the left span. The zero of the gauge (elev. 81.90) is referred to a bench
mark (elev. 95.26) on the downstream side of the left abutment, marked D.I.; this is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) used for the south channel.

The gauge in the south channel is of the standard chain type located on the floor of the
bridge at the centre of the right span. The zero of the gauge (elev. 81.16) is referred to
a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00, located on the right bank 200 feet south-
east of the right abutment.

The north channel is straight for about 1500 feet above and 1200 feet below the station
The right bank is high, gravelly and free from brush. The left bank is comparatively low,
wooded and will overflow at high stages. The bed of the stream is very sandy and shifts
continually. Numerous sand bars appear in the channel at low stages of the stream.

The south channel is straight for about 1500 feet above and 600 feet below the station.
The left bank is comparatively low, wooded and will overflow at high stages. The right bank
is higher, wooded and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and
gravel and will shift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridges. The
initial point for soundings for each channel is the north end of the handrail on the downstream
side of the bridge and distances are marked every ten feet on the handrail.

During 1913 gauge height observations were made by H. W. Fisher.

a The drainage area of this stream cannot be obtained with any degree of accuracy and in any case would be
misleading so no computations involving the same have been made.

NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER AT EDMONTON.

This station is located at the low-level traffic and railway bridge in the city of Edmonton,
on the N.W. X of Sec. 33. Tp. 52, Rge. 24, West of the 4th meridian.

There are two plain staff gauges at the station, a low level one reading from zero to ten
feet and a high level one reading from ten to thirty-four feet. The high level gauge is spiked
perpendicularly to a high timber pier a short distance above the mill of the Edmonton Lumber
Company. The low level gauge is attached to a pier about 75 feet above the other and some
200 feet from the right bank. Both gauges are graduated to feet and tenths and are about 300
yards downstream from the bridge. The zero of the gauges (elevation 1991.085) is referred to
a permanent iron bench mark (elevation 2025.04) located under the stay line to the stack of
the mill and about 50 feet from the high level gauge. This bench mark is referred to the
Department of Public Works bench mark on the left abutment of the bridge, which is eleva-
tion 2025.00 feet above sea level.

The channel is straight for about 700 feet above and 200 feet below the station. Both
banks are high, of an earth formation and sparsely covered with brush. The bed of the
stream is composed of sand and gravel and is liable to shift slightly. The stream is divided
into four channels by the three bridge piers.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the stream face of the left or north abutment. Distances are marked on
the handrail of the bridge.

The bridge is a four span steel structure supported by concrete piers and abutments.
Between the right pier and the shore and extending for some distance above and below the
bridge, there is a row of timber piers with a long string of booms attached to them. This boom
is for the purpose of conducting logs to the Edmonton Lumber Company's mill, a short
distance below the bridge. The boom is sometimes fuU of logs and at such times it becomes
very hard to obtain velocity observations in this span.

This station was first used by this survey during 1911 and the gauge height observations
were supplied by the Edmonton Lumber Company. Mr. Schneider made the observations
for the Company during 1913.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVEB NEAE ROCKY MOUNTAIN HOUSE.

This station was established June 2, 1913, by G. H. Whyte. It is located on the N. E. %
See. 21, Tp. 39, Rge. 7, W. 5th Mer., and about one mile from the village of Rocky Mountain
House.

The gauge, which is an inclined staff reading to feet and tenths, is located on the left
bank of the river some 60 feet above the ferry cable and about 1,000 feet below the railway
bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 3108.39) is referred to a stump (assumed elev. 3127.74
"Public Works of Canada") located on the left bank in front of the ferry cable-tower.

In October 1913, a cable station was constructed about 500 feet below the gauge which
will enable the survey to make regular gaugings at this point throughout the year and it is
expected that the daily discharges for 1913 will be computed and included in the 1914 report.

The gauge was read until November by D. Hayes and after that date by W. Austin.

BATTLE RIVER AT BATTLEFORD.

This station was established on Juno 17, 1911, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located at the
traflie bridge in the town of Battleford on the S.E. X Sec. 19, Tp. 43, Rge. 16. W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is located level with°the floor of the bridge
at chainage 45. The zero of the gauge (elev. 72.53) is referred to a bench mark (assumed elv.
100.00), situated on the top of the loft abutment on the outer downstream corner.

The channel is straight for 300 yards above and half a mile below the station. Both banks
are fairly high and clean. The bed of the stream is composed of sand which shifts considera-
bly. Backwater from floods on tho North Saskatchewan, into which this stream empties some
three miles below the station, gives trouble in computing accurate di.scharges.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter from the bridge which is a
three-span steel structure. The initial point for sounding is the inner face of the left abutment.
Distances are marked on the handrail on the downstream side of the bridge.

During 1913, Mr. C. J. Johnson of the Indian Agency staff took the observations.

BATTLE RIVER AT POXOKA.

This station was established ]May 7, 1913, by V. ]SIeek. It is located in the village of
Ponoka. at the steel traffic bridge 300 vards southeast of the C.P.R. depot, in the S.W. }{
Sec. 4, Tp. 25, Rge. 43, West of the 4th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is situated at the eft
bank 30 feet upstream from the bridge. It is referred to the top of a spike in a pile on the
upstream side of the left abument (elev. 11.69 above the zero of the gauge.)

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 50 feet below the station. Both banks are
clay and covered with brush and are not likelj- to overflow. The bed of the stream is sandy.

Measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial point for
soundings is the inner face of the left abutment. Distances are marked every five feet on the
handrail.

During 1913 the gauge was read bj^ G. R. Edwards.

STURGEON RIVER NEAR FORT SASKATCHEWAN.

This station was established December 30, 1913, by P. H. Daniells. I is located on the
N.W. 'a Sec. 28, Tp. 55, Rge. 22, W. of the 4th Mcr., on the Traffic bridge about five miles
worth of Fort .Saskatchewan and about one and a half miles from the mouth of the river.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a pile near
the right bank about 20 feet from the initial point. The zero of the gauge (elev. 87.52) is
referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on th^ top of the downstream side
of the left abutment.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 100 feet below the station. Both banks are
low but not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is sandy with a gravel control about
100 feet below which should be fairly permanent. The current is moderate.

Measurements are made from the downstream side of the steel traffic bridge with meter
and weights. The initial point for soundings is the stream face of the right abutment.

It was not possible to obtain an observer during 1913 and therefore discharge measure-
ments only were made.

STURGEON RIVER AT ST. ALBERT.

This station was established on April 23, 1913, by V. Meek. It is located between river
lots 27 and 52 in St. Albert Settlement, Alberta, at the highway bridge crossing the Sturgeon
River in the village of St. Albert.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths is fastened to a pile in
the bed of the stream 20 feet above the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.23) is referred
o a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the cement sill of the east basement
window of the St. Albert Hotel and marked "B.M., D.I." and broad arrow, in white paint.

The channel is straight for 500 feet above and below the station. Both banks are fairly
high, clean and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is sandy, with consideralile
growth of vegetation which usually causes a change of control during the summer. The current
is rather sluggish.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the steel traffic bridge.
The initial point for soundings is a zero marked on the handrail of the bridge; the chainage
is marked on the rail every five feet.

During 1913, the gauge was read dail.y by Lawrence Farrell and later l)y Chas. Pelletier.

SOUTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Descriplion.

The upper portion of this drainage basin will be dealt in the descriptions of the drainage
basins of Bow, Little Bow, Oldman Waterton, Belly and St. Mary Rivers. These streams
are all conjoined at a point kno\^Ti as the Grand Forks, to form the South Saskatchew;an
River. From the Grand Forks the river flows in a north and easterly direction to its junction
with the North Saskatchewan River a short distance east of the city of Prince Albert.
From this point onward the stream takes the name of the Saskatchewan River.

After the confluence of the Bow and Belly Rivers the stream receives comparatively
little drainage, the principal tributaries being the Red Deer River, draining that portion of the
basin between the North and the South Saskatchewan River, and Sevenpersons River and
Swiftcurrent creek emptying into the main stream from the south. Descriptions of the
drainage basins of all these streams are given elsewhere in this report.

The drainage basin of this stream is quite similar to that of all such streams which have
their source in the mountains and flow across the prairies. The upper part of the basin has
considerable fall, with rock and gravel formation and a good growth of timber. In contrast
to this the prairie section of the basin is sparselj' wooded, except along the banks of the stream,
and the rock formation changes to earth; also the stream is more apt to change its channel,
especially in times of flood. The high water occurs in the hot months of summer and is
caused by the melting of the snow fields in the mountains. The low water occurs in the winter
months when there is no melting snow to augment the stream flow.

In addition to the gauging stations on the tributaries, which are taken up in detail
elsewhere in this report, there were two stations established on the main stream during the
season of 1911, and daily gauge height observations and discharge measurements have since
been taken at regular intervals. These stations are located at the cities of Medicine Hat
and Saskatoon.

Up to the present the chief value of this stream has been as a source of municipal water
supply. There are no irrigation schemes or water power developments on the main stream.

The cities of ]\Iedicine Hat and Saskatoon derive their water supply from this stream.
The South Saskatchewan is also being considered as a possible source of supply for the cities of
Moose Jaw and Regina. In this connection surveys were carried out during 1913 by this
Department and also by the Provincial Government.

SOUTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER AT SASKATOON.

Tliis station was established May 27, 1911, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located at the
Canadian Northern Railway bridge in the city of Saskatoon, on the S.W. % Sec. 28, Tp.36
Rge. 5, W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is placed on the downstream side of the
bridge at ehainage 190. The length of chain from the bottom of the weight to the marker is
44.26 feet. The zero of the gauge (elev. 1.528.59) is referred to a bench mark (elev. 1553.35),
on the side of the downstream end of the hft abutment. The latter elevation is referred to a
waterworks bench mark (elev. 1571.31 of the City of Saskatoon, located on the top of a
hydrant situated approximately 300 feet northeast of the left abutment.

The channel is straight for about 500 feet above and 800 feet below the station. Both
banks are high and sandy. The right bank is covered with a dense growth of trees and brush
above and below the station. The left bank is clear of brush. The bed of the stream is sandy
and shifts.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge, which is a six-span timber structure
supported by cement piers and abutments. The remains of the piers of a former bridge affect
velocity observations in their vicinity. Distances are marked on the handrail on the down-
stream side of th bridge. The face of the left abutment is the initial point for sounding.

During 1913, the gauge was read by James White.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

SOUTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER AT MEDICINE HAT.

This station was established May 31, 1911, bv H. R. Carseallen. It is located at the
traffic bridge in the city of Medicine Hat on the N.W. % Sec. 31, Tp. 12, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer.
The bridge is a five-span structure supported by concrete abutments and piers.

On September 27, 1913, a chain gauge was installed on the traffic bridge crossing this
river. The gauge box is fixed to the sidewalk of the downstream side of the bridge, and is
situated at the middle of the second span from the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev.
79.78) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the
right bank at the Canadian Paciffic Railway bridge, 500 feet upstream. The length of gauge
chain from marker to bottom of weight is 40.85 feet.

The channel is straight for about 600 yards above and below the station. The current is
moderate and uniform, except in the vicinity of the piers. At these points eddies, and in
some cases stretches of backwater, occur, making it difficult to obtain the mean velocity.
The banks are high and sandy and clear of undergrowth. The bed is composed of sand and
gravel and is liable to shift at high stages of the stream.

Open water measurements are made from the traffic bridge. The initial point for sound-
ings is the stream face of the left or west abutment and is suitably marked on the handrail.

During 1913, the gauge was read by B. H. Solomon, George J. Kroft, E. G. Hitchins and
James Mowat.

Red Deer River rises in the Sawback Range of the Rockies in the Northern portion of the
Rocky Mountain Park, near the boundary between the Provinces of Alberta and British
Columbia. It flows eastward for about 40 miles, then northeastward for 70 or SQ miles to a
point near Red Deer, Alberta. From here the river flows in a southeasterly and easterly
direction to its junction with the South Saskatchewan River just east of the Fourth Meridain,
in Tp. 22, R?e. 28, W. 3rd Aler. It has a length of approximately 400 miles.

The vaUev of the Red Deer is wide and deep, the banks being very rough and cut up
with a large number of deep coulees, draining into the river. Near its source the basin is well
timbered and a good growth of timber is found along its banks for some distance out into the
prairie. Seams of coal, well suited for domestic use, are found in the valley and form the
principal source of fuel supply for the settlers along the stream in the prairie section.

The river carries a considerable supply of water at all times of the year, but the volume is
subject to sudden variations, due to the melting of snow in the mountains and to heavy
summer rains.

Of the tributaries of the Red Deer, the most important are Panther River, near its head,
Little Red Deer, entering in Tp. 36, Rge. 1, W. 5th Mer., and Rosebud River, emptying into
it in Tp. 28, Rge. 19, W. 4th Mer. In addition, there are innumerable small streams draining
into the main river in the western portion of the basin. From the mouth of the Rosebud
River eastward there is very little drainage into the river.

Verv' little water is taken from the Red Deer and its branches for irrigation purposes.
There are only a few small schemes on some of the smaller tributaries. The land along the
vallev, though lacking moisture, is extremely fertile, and with the help of irrigation much of it
might be cultivated and line crops produced. The irrigation of the bench land from the river
would be difficult on account of the small fall in the river, the depth of the valley, and the
rolling nature of the lands in the drainage basin.

Very httle hydrographic work has been done in this basin as yet. A gauging station was
established on the Red Deer River near Innisfail, in 1910, but an observer could not be secu-
red and only periodic discharge measurements have been secured at this station. In the
Fall of 1911, another gauging station was established at the town of Red Deer, and conti-
nuous records have been obtained since then.

Of the tributaries of Red Deer River, Berry and Blood Indian Creeks are the only ones
that have been given any attention. These small creeks, which drain into the river in the
prairie section, have a few small irrigation rights registered against them and gauging stations
were established on them in 1911, but o\ving to the high cost of obtaining data they were
abandoned in 1913.

RED DEER RIVER AT RED DEER.

This station was estabhshed December 2, 1911, by .J. E. Degnan. It is located at the
traffic bridge in the town of Red Deer, on the S.E. % Sec. 20, Tp. 38, Rge. 27, W. 4th Mer.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is fixed to the floor of the bridge at a
point about the middl ' of the north span, on the upstream side of the bridge. The length of
the chain from the bottom of the weight to the marker is 29.52 feet. The zero of the gauge
(elev. 84.40) is referred to two bench marks on the northwest face of the north abutment at
assumed elevations 100.00 and 95.00.

The stream flows in one channel at all stages. This channel is straight for about 600 feet
above and 1,300 feet below the gauge. At very high stagjs the river may overflow the right
bank, but not the left, as it is high and steep. The bed of the stream is composed of gravel,
but it is firm and not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge during the
open season. The initial point for soundings is a point near the north end of the bridge and is
marked on the handrail of the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by C. H. Snell.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Bow river rises in lakes Bow and Hector, which are situated in the Rocky Mountains
Park, north of the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway and just east of the Great
Divide, and whose elevations are 6,420 and 5,694 feet, respectively, above mean sea level. It
flows in a south and easterly direction to the city of Calgarj-, where it takes a big bend to the
south, and then continues in a south and easterly direction to its junction with Belly River at
the Grand Forks. Below this point the united stream is known as the South Saskatchewan
River.

Bow River has a large number of tributaries in the western portion of its course. Of
these, the principal are Cascade and Ghost Rivers draining the northern portion of the
basin, and Spray, Kananaskis, Elbow, Sheep, and Highwood Rivers draining the southern
portion. Below the mouth of Highwood River very little draining reaches Bow River, and
in consequence it depends for its supply almost wholly upon the run-off from the mountains
and foothills. As a result. Bow River possesses a normally steady flow throughout the year,
but is subject to sudden freshets caused by melting snow and l^ea^^' rains in the mountains.
The minimum flow occurs in the frozen season, when there is little run-off from the snow fields
in the western part of the drainage basin.

The valley of the Bow is deep and well defined throughout its course. In the mountain
section it is comparatively narrow and very heavily timbered, while the bed is stony and the
banks high and rocky. The nature of the valley changes gradually until, when it reaches the
prairie, it is wide, of a clay formation, and devoid of trees, the bed consisting for the most part
of gravel. The water is clear and pure.

A large quantity of water is diverted from the Bow River for irrigation purposes. The
two chief users are the Department of Natural Resources, Canadian Pacific Railway Com-
pany and the Southern Alberta Land Company.

The Department of Natural Resources diverts water at two points, one just east of the
City of Calgarj' and the other three miles southwest of Bassano.. The first system has been
in operation for several years and distributes water over the Western section of the Irrigation
block which extends east as far as Gleichen. The works at Bassano comprise a very large

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIX

69

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

earth fill dam and concrete spillway, which were completed in 1913. This sj-stem is to serve
the Eastern section of the Irrigation block, which extends east from Bassano. In all, it is
proposed to irrigate about 1.000,00.J acr^^s of land.

The Southern Alberta Land Company have a dam and reservoir near Namaka. These
works were practically completed iu 1913. It is proposed to irrigate by this system about
300, 00 acres.

There are many favourable sites for power development on the Bow River but only one
company has up to the present developed power. The Calgary Power Compnay has two
plants; one is at Kananaskis Falls at the junction of the Kananaskis and Bow Rivers and two
miles east of Kananaskis station; the other is at Horseshoe Falls one mile below. The latter
plant has been in operation for some years, and has a capacity of 19,500 horse power. The
dam at Kananaskis Falls was completed in 1913 and this plant has a rated capacity of 11,600
horse power. All the power developed is used by the City of Calgary.

The City of Calgary takes its domestic water supply from Elbow River. The intake is
about twelve miles southwest of Calgary, above which point the course of the river is through
a wild and unset led country, where there is no possibility of human contamination.

The run-off in this drainage basin for 1913 was slightly above the average. No floods
occurred during the year. The highest stage on the Bow River at Calgarj' was in June.

A full description of flood conditions during previous years in the Bow basin may be
found on pages 65 and 66 of the Report of Progress of Stream Measurements for 1912.

BATH CREEK NE.\R LAGGAN.

This station was established April 9, 1913, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located on the N.E. }4
Sec. 32, Tp. 28, Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer., on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway, one
mile west of Laggan station.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet an hundredths, is fixed to the
downstream end of the right abutment of the steel railway bridge. The zero of the gauge
(elev. 89.59) is referred to the do-mistream corner of the right concrete abutment (assumed
elev. 100.00).

The channel is straight for 135 feet above and 110 feet below the station. The left
bank is low, sandy and liable to overflow. The right bank is high, roek3% wooded and not
liable to overflow. The bed is of clean coarse gravel and is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made 20J feet above the gauge with a current meter by
wading. The initial point for soundings is a stake driven into the right bank.

The gauge was read by J. Dickson from May 25th to September 20th. During the
remainder of the year there was no observer available.

Measurements made on this stream previous to April 9 will be found under miscellaneous
measurements.

BOW RIVER AT LAGGAN.

This station was established on July 18, 1910, bv J. C Keith. It was at first located at an
old traffic bridge on the N.E. '4 Sec. 28,"Tp. 28, Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer., about one third of
a mile west of Laggan. This site did not prove satisfactory and a cable station was there-
fore estabUshed by H. C. Ritchie near the east boundary of the S.E. j4 See. 28, Tp. 28, Ptge.
16, W. 5th Men, on August 30, 1911. The new station is about one half mile southeast of
Laggan and 300 feet above the mouth of the Pipestone River.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The gauge, which is of the standard chain tj'pe, is situated at the left bank, 8 feet down-
stream from the cable. The length of the chain from bottom of weight to marker is 11.00 feet.
The zero (elev. 89.14) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00),
situated about 11 feet southeast of the cable tower on the left bank. The elevation of the
bench mark referred to Canadian Pacific Railway elevations is found to be 4942.82 feet aboA'e
mean sea level.

The river flows in one channel at all stages. It is straight for 75 feet above and 200 feet
below the station. Both banks are high and not liable to overflow. The right bank is covered
with a good growth of space but the left is almost clear. The bed of the stream is composed of
gravel and boulders but is not liable to shift. The current has a fairly high velocity.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable, ear, tagged wire and stay wire.
The initial point for soundings is the centre of the lower on the left bank, and distances are
marked on the measuring wire by tags at five foot intervals.

During 1913, the gauge was read by E. Braund.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

PIPESTONE RIVER NEAR LAGGAN.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established August 31, 1911, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located on the
S.W. % See. 27, Tp. 28, Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer., seven-eights of a mile east of Laggan station,
1,000 feet below the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge and 500 feet above where the stream
enters the Bow River.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is supported over the water by two posts
set upright in the left bank of the stream, twelve feet south and downstream from the cable.
The length of the chain is 10,51 feet from the bottom of the weight to the marker. The zero
(elev. 91.54) is referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), on an iron spike driven into
the side of a spruce tree on the left bank, 22 feet north of the cable. The elevation of the
bench mark referred to Canadian Pacific Railwav elevations is found to be 4943.77 feet
above mean sea level.

The channel is straight for 60 feet above and 100 feet below the station. Both banks are
low, but are not hable to overflow. They are covered with low scnib and a sparse growth of
spruce. The bed is rocky but fairly smooth at the cross-section. The fall of the stream is
considerable and the current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made with a cable, car, tagged wire and stay wire. The
initial point for soundings is the centre of the left tower supporting the cable and distances
are marked every five feet by tin tags.

During 1913, the gauge was read by E. Braund.

LOUISE CREEK NEAR LAGGAN.

(1)

This station was established July 5, 1913. by H. C. Ritchie. It is located on the N.E. %
Sec. 20, Tp. 28. Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer., near the Chateau Lake Louise, at the wooden culvert
crossed by the Chateau Railway from Laggan station, 500 feet downstream from the outlet
of Lake Louise, the source of the stream.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

77

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the
culvert at the right bank. The gauge is referred to a bench mark at the upstream end of the
right timber abutment (elev. 5.92 above the zero of the gauge).

The ehaimel makes a sharp angle immediately at the gauge. Both bankfe are low but are
not liable to overflow. The bed is composed of coarse gravel which is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading near the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Samuel Farquhar.

Water is piped from the lake to the turbines of the Chateau power plant, situated one
half mile below this station. 3ileasurements of the tail race, which are given under miscella-
neous measurements, show this discharge to remain fairh' constant at approximately ten
sec. ft. This discharge must be added to obtain the total run-off for the station.

(1) This stream appears in the list of miscellaneous measurements in the 1912 report as
Chalet Creek.

FORTYMILE CREEK NEAR BANFF.

This station was established July 31, 1912, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the traffic
bridge, on the S.W. % Sec.2, Tp. 26 Rge. 12, W. 5th Mer., on the trail leading from Banff to
Castle. It is about a quarter of a mile from the Canadian Pacific Railway depot in Banff and
about a mile from the mouth of the creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is driven into the bed
of the stream near the left bank, four feet upstream from the bridge, and stayed to two trees.
It is referred to a bench mark on the right abutment of the bridge, elevation 8.94 above the
zero of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 50 feet above and 100 feet below the station. Both
banks are high and wooded and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is of clean sand
and gravel and not Ukely to shift.

Discharge measurements are made from the lower side of the bridge with a current meter
and cable. The initial point for soundings is at the left abutment and is marked with a knife
cut on the handrail.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. Anderson who lives 500 feet distant.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

BOW RIVER AT BANFF.

This station was established Maj^ 25, 1909, by P. M. Sauder. It is located at the highway
bridge in the \'illa;e of Banff, about one mile from the Canadian Pacific Railway Station. It
is on the quartering line in the S. H See. 35, Tp. 25, Rge. 12, W. 5th Mer., and is about a mile
above the mouth of Spray River, and a short distance below Vermilion lakes.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to the
downstream side of the centre pier. The zero (elev. 92.36) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) situated on the right bank 40 feet east of the southern
extremity of the bridge.

The channel is straight for about 300 feet above and 400 feet below the station. Both
banks are low and are partly covered with brush and timber, but are not liable to overflow
The bed is composed of gravel and boulders. There is a deep hole near the right bank, part
of which is backwater at low stages. The current is sluggish above the station but increases in
velocity until rapids are reached about 300 feet below. Bridge piers divide the stream into
four channels.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. _ The initial
point for soundings is one and a half feet from the noith end of the bridge; distances are
marked on the bottom chord of the downstream side of the bridge at five foot intervals.

During 1913, the gauge was read by N. B. Sanson, Meteorological Observer at Banff.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

SPRAY RIVER NEAR BANFF.

4 GEORGE v.. A. 1914

This station was established July 15, 1910, by J. C. Keith. It is located at a traffic
bridge about one mile southeast of the village of Banff, on the N.W. % of Sec. 25, Tp. 25, Rge.
12, W. 5th Mer., and about 100 yards above the junction with Bow River.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is nailed to the dowTistream end of the
left or west abutment of the bridge, and projects about five feet over the water. The length
of the chain is 14.67 feet from bottom of weight to marker. The zero of the gauge (elev. 88.71)
is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the left bank
50 feet downstream from the bridge.

The channel is straight for 75 feet above and 100 feet below the station. The right bank
is low and may overflow at high stages of the stream. The left bank is steep and high. The
bed is composed of coarse gravel and is not liable to shift. From the middle of the section to
the right bank, the depth of water decreases at the lowest stages to barely sufficient to cover
the gravel. The greatest depth is near the left bank. At the left bank there is a quantity of
large rocks which interfers slightly with the accuracy of measurement.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge with current
meter, cable and stay line. The initial point for soundings is the extreme west end of the
bottom chord of the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by N. B. Sanson, Meteorological Observer, at Banff.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

CASCADE RIVER AT BANKHEAD.

This station was established August 16, 1911, by P. M. Sauder. It is located on the
S.E. ,V See. 19, Tp. 26, Rge. 11, W. 5th Mer., at the Bankhead mines. It is located at a foot
bridge, 100 feet below an old crib dam and one mile below the dam and reservoir of the Cal-
gary Power Company at Lake Minnewanka.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to the
cribbing which supports the north end of the bridge. It is referred to a bench mark on a tree
stump on the left bank a few feet dowTistream from the bridge; elevation above gauge datum,
.5.51 feet.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and below the station. The left bank is low,
but not liable to overflow. The right bank is built high by a coal dump. The bed is coarse
gravel which is not liable to shift. The current is swift near the left bank and dead at the
right bank.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge with a mete^
and rods. The initial point for soundings is the left end of the bridge and is marked "O' ' on
the handrail.

During 1913, the gauge was read once each day by J. B. Mackinlay, Accountant at the
Bankhead mines.

Abnormal conditions of discharge will be found in the tables due to the effect of the
reserv^oir of the Calgary Power Company above the station.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

BOW RIVER NEAR KANANASKIS.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on March 10, 1912, by H. C. Ritchie, to replace the old
station near Morley. It is located at the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge on N. W. % See.
32, Tp. 24, Rge. 8, W. 5th Mer. The upper dam of the Calgary Power Company, completed
November, 1913, is situated one mile below the station at the point where the Kananaskis
River enters.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is securely fastened to the inside of the
guard rail on the first span from the right bank. The length of the chain from the marker to
the bottom of the weight is 18.48 feet. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.05 )is referred to a
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) on the side of the east pier.

_ The channel is straight for 600 feet above and 900 feet below the station. The right bank
is high and is not liable to overflow, while the left is low and is liable to overflow in high stages
of the stream. Both banks have considerable growths of willow and cottonwood. The bed of
the stream is of solid rock with fairly smooth and level surface and will not change. The
current is fairly swift at this section.

Discharge measurements are made from the bottom chord of the downstream side of the
bridge with meter, cable and stay line. At a very low stage measurements may be made by
wading. The initial point for soundings is at the left abutment and is marked "O" painted
on the bottom chord. Distances from the initial point are painted every ten feet across
the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. Gipson for the Calgary Power Co.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

KANANASKIS RIVER NEAR KANANASKIS.

This station was established August 31, 1911, by P. M. Sauder. On May 13th, 1913, the
station was moved by H. C. Ritchie to its present position one and one half miles upstream,
on account of backwater from the Calgary Power Company's new dam. The station is located
on the S.W. '4 Sec. 34, Tp. 24, Rge. 8, W. 5th Mev., one and one-half miles above the junction
with the Bow River. The upper dam of the Calgarj' Power Company, completed November,
1913, is situated immediately below the junction of the two rivers and is two miles east of
Kananaskis station.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is supported on posts at the right bank,
60 feet upstream from the gauging section. The length of the chain is 11.10 feet from bottom
of weight to marker. The zero of the gauge (elev. 88.17) is referred to a permanent iron bench
mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank between the gauge and the cable
tower.

The channel is straight for 400 feet above and 700 feet below the station. Both banks
are high, wooded and not liable to overflow. The channel at the station is of coarse gravel and
very uniform; below the station it is somewhat rocky. The current is swift; at low stages there
is backwater at the left bank.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter and rods by means of a cable and
car. The initial point for soundings is the centre line of the tower on the left bank. Distances
are marked every five feet by a tagged wire stretched between the cable towers .

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. Gipson for the Calgary Power Company.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

GHOST RIVER AT GILLIES RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on August 17, 1911, by L. R. Brereton, It is located on the
N.E. % Sec. 23, Tp. 26, Rge. 6, West of 5th Mer., opposite Gillies' rauehe buildings and one
mile above the highway bridge which crosses the stream just above its junction with the Bow
River

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.87) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 10000), situated on the right bank of the
river 270 feet due north of the quarter mound on the east boundary of Sec. 23, Tp. 26, Rge. 6,
W. 5th Mer., and 469 feet east and slightly south of the gauge.

The channel curves just above the gauge but is straight for 200 feet below. The right
bank is a steep clay cut bank and will not overflow. The left is low, gravelly and slightly
wooded and wiU not overflow. The bed of the stream is uniform and is composed of gravel
which may shift at high stages.

Discharge measurements during high water are made at the highway bridge below. The
initial point for soundings is the face of the right abutment. At low stages the stream is waded
near tne gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Miss E. Gillies.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

JUMPIXGPOUXD CREEK NEAR JUMPING POUND.

This station was established May 7, 1908. by P. M Sauder. Tt ia located at a traffic
bridge on a road diversion on the S.E. X See. 30, Tp. 24, Rge. 4, West 5th Mer., and is about
300 3^ards from Jumping Pound P. O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to the downstream face of tha first pile bent west of the main truss of the bridge. The ^cro
(elev. 89.84 is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) situated 30
feet northeast of the east end of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 600 feet above and 500 feet below the station. The current
is sluggish at and above the station, but breaks into rapids about 150 feet below the station.
The right bank is composed of gravel and boulders, mixed with clay, and is not liable to
overflow. The left bank is similar, but not so high, and is liable to overflow in excessive
floods. The bed of the stream is composed of coarse gravel and boulders. It is rough and
may shift in flood stages. The stream is divided into several channels during its higher stages
by a, pier and pile bents supporting the bridge.

At low water stages of the stream discharge measurements are made at wading sections,
either above or below the bridge. During higher stages of the stream, discharge measure-
ments are made from the down stream side of the bridge. The initial point for soundings is
the west side of the right abutment. Distances are marked on the railing of the bridge, at
very five feet from the initial point.

During 1913, the gauge was read by John Bateman, the postmaster at Jumping Pound.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

BOW RIVER AT CALGARY

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on November 25, 1910, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located at
the Langevln traffic bridge, on Fourth Street East, in theN.E. % Sec. 15, Tp. 24, Rge. 1,
W. 5th Mer., two miles above the original station at the Gushing bridge, established May 5,
1908 by P. M. Sauder. As the cross-section at the Langevin bridge was affected by some
old bridge piers, a plain staff gauge was at first fixed to a breakwater several hundred feet
upstream fromthe bridge but on November 14, 1911, a chain gauge was established on the
Langevin bridge and the observations have been made with it since that date.

This gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is fixed to the floor of the bridge at a
point about the centre of the downstream side of the north span. The length of the chain
from the bottom of the weight to the marker is 22.28 feet. The zero of the gauge (elevation
82.59) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elevation 100.00) situated at the
intersection of Second and Third Avenues and about 60 feet west of First Street East. There
is a gauge embedded in the cement on the north side of the centre pier, (whose zero is 87.20
above the same assumed datum), which is usually used to check the chain gauge.

The river flows in one channel at all stages. It is almost straight for about half a mile
above and a quarter of a mile below the station. Both banks are low but are not liable to
overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of coarsfe gravel and may shift in flood stages of
the stream.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge, which is a
two span steel structure supported by concrete abutments and a pier. The initial point for
soundings is the south face of the left abutment.

During 1913 the gauge was read by C A. Lang.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

ELBOW RIVER AT CALGARY.

105

This station was established ]May 8, 1908, by P. M. Sauder. It is located at the traffic
bridge between Eleventh and Twelfth Avenues East, in the S.W. i Sec. 18, Tp. 24, Rge. 1,
W. 5thi ISIer.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is fixed to the side- walk on the upstream
side of the bridge. The zero (elev. 84.75) is referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00)
on the extreme upstream corner of the cement wing wall of the left abutment of the bridge.
The length of the chain from the bottom of the weight to the marker is 16.03 feet.

The stream is confined to one channel. Both banks are high and do not overflow. The
bed of the stream is composed of boulders and gravel and is not liable to change at the
station, but may do so fai'ther up the stream where there is a small ripple. The channel is
straight for about 500 feet below and 50 feet above the station. The current is swift at all
stages of the stream. This station is so close to the mouth of the river that there will be
backwater at the gauge when the Bow River is in flood.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable-car, tagged wire, and stay wire.
The initial point for soundings is the zero of the tagged wire, at its fastening to the cable
support, on the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. I. S. White.

There are no tributaries below this station and there is no water diverted from the river
except that used by the City of Calgary, whose intake is about eleven miles west of Calgarj^

NOSE CREEK NEAR CALGARY.

This station was established April 24, 1911, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the N.W. '4 Sec. 13, Tp. 24, Rge. 1, W. 5th Mer. The station is about one

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, wbich is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to the
upstream face of the upper pile of a row near the left bank. The zero (elev. 92.81) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) on the left bank near the end of the
bridge.

The channel is straight for about 50 feet above and 150 feet below the station. A small
island just below the bridge divides the stream into two channels in low water and causes
cross-currents at the bridge. Both banks are high, steep, gravelly and clear of brush. The
bed of the stream is composed of coarse gravel.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge at high stages
and at a wading section downstream in low water.

During 1913, the gauge was read by C. A. Lang.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

CANADIAN PACIFIC R.\ILWAY COMPANY CANAL AT OGDEN.

This station was established May 18, 1911, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at Bridge
No. 3, about six miles below the headworks of main canal "A". It is on the N.E. % Sec. 21,
Tp. 23, Rge. 29, W. 4th Mer., one half mile from Ogden Post OfBce.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened in a
wooden bay at the left bank, 100 feet upstream from the bridge. The gauge is referred to
an iron post in the left bank, two feet from the lower end of the left abutment (elev. 13.35
above the zero of the gauge).

The channel is straight for about 300 feet above and 500 feet below the station. The
banks are high, composed of clay and cut to a uniform slope. The bed is also composed of
clay. The current is moderate and uniform.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge, which is a
wooden structure supported by piles. The initial point for soundings is a spike driven into
the rail at the inner face of the left abutment.

The gauge was read during 1913 by A. Hatcher for the Canadian Pacific Railway
Company.

An automatic gauge is maintained by the Company and is situated in the same position
as the staff gauge. The readings of the automatic gauge were used as a cheek upon the
observer's readings.

FISH CREEK NEAR PRIDDIS.

This station was established IMay 13, 1907, by P. M. Sauder. It is on the S.W. '4 Sec.
26, Tp. 22, Rge. 3, W. 5th Mer., about one mile from Priddis, and near Perceval's buildings.

A plain staff gauge, graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed vertically at the left
bank, about 200 yards north of Mr. Perceval's house. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.81) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 109.00) situated 36 feet west and a
little south of the gauge.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

113

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for 300 feet above and 150 feet below the station. The left bank
is high, and will not overflow. The right bank is low, covered with brush and timber, and is
liable to overflow in extreme high water. The bed is composed of gravel, but not liable to
shift. The current is sluggish in extreme low stages of the stream.

Measurements during low stages of the stream are made by wading at or near the gauge.
High water discharges are computed from slope measurements by the use of Kutter's formula,
or bj' gaugings made from the traffic bridge, about a mile upstream near Priddis post oflfice.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Fred Perceval.

This station was established Mav 22, 1908, by P- M- Sander. It is located on the
S.W. '4 Sec. 12, Tp. 21, Rge. 3, W. 5th"lMer., 100 feet' from Malcolm T. Millar's house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the
cribwork a the left side of the stream. The zero (elev. 82.67) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated 36 feet southwest of the N.E. comer of Sec. 2,
Tp. 21, Rge. 3, W. 5th Mer., and about 100 yards west of the gauge.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for about 300 feet above and below the station; the banks are
high and clean and not liable to overflow and there will be but one channel at all stages.

During high water discharge measurements are made at the traffic bridge about one mile
downstream, on the road allowance on the east boundary of Sec. 12. At low stages the
stream is gauged at a wading section about 200 feet downstream from the gauge. The cross-
section at the gauge is unsuitable for gauging, as the stream is very deep and sluggish at this
point.

During 1913, the gauge was read once daily by Malcolm T. Millar.

SOUTH BRANCH OP SHEEP RIVER NEAR BLACK DIAMOND.

This station was established May 23, 1908, by P. M. Sauder. It is located at the steel
highway bridge on the road allowance between Sees, 8 and 17, Tp. 20, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer.
It is one half mile from Black Diamond.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is fastened to the downstream side of the
floor of the bridge, about midway between the west abutment and the centre pier. The zero
of the gauge (elev. 93,66) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.100.00)
located in f ^ont of the downstream end of the centre pier 75 feet north of the northeast comer
of the N.W. % Sec. 8, Tp. 20, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c >

The channel is straight for about 150 feet above the station, then swings sharply to the
left. It is straight for about 500 feet below the station, then turns gradually to the right.
Both banks are composed of gravel. The right bank is low, partly covered -svith brush and
overflows during the higher stages of the stream. The left bank is high and cannot overflow.
The bed is composed of coarse gravel, and is permanent in low water stages of the
stream, but a gravel bar at the right bank, which is covered durin , high water stages, is
liable to shift. The river has considerable fall and the current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the outer edge of the bed plate on the west end of the bridge. Distances
from the initial point are marked at every five feet on the bottom chord of the bridge. . .

During 1913 the gauge was read by Herbert Arnold, merchant at Black Diamond.

SHEEP RIVER NEAR OKOTOKS.

This station was established May 25, 1908, by P. M. Sander. It is located at the Cana-
dian Pacific Railway bridge about one mile from Okotoks, on the N.W. l4 Sec. 22, Tp. 20,
Rge. 29, W. 4th Mor.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to the
cribwork on the left side of the centre pier. There is also a plain staff gauge graduated to feet
and tenths embedded in the cement on the left face of the centre pier near the downstream
end, for use during flood stages. The gauges are referred to a bench mark on the top of the
left abutment at the southwest corner. This is a Canadian Pacific Railway bench mark and

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

the elevation 3431.57 marked upon it, is used for reference. The elevation of the zero of the
reg:ular gauge is 3417.12 whilst that of the high water gauge is 2.00 feet higher.

The channel is straight for .500 feet above and below the station. The current is sluggish
at the station, but swift both above and below. The right bank is high and not liable to
overflow. The left bank is lower and may overflow in very high stages. Both banks are
covered with brusli and trees. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and gravel and is
liable to shift. A number of piles, remnants of the old wooden bridge, still stand in the bed
and affect the velocit}' observations.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge, e.xeept
in low water, when wading sections can be obtained.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Miss M. B. Henderson.

NORTH BRANCH OP HIGHWOOD RIVER AT BROWn's RANCHE.

This station was established on July 27, 1912, by F. R. Burfield. It is located on the
S.E X Sec. 20, Tp. 18, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer., about eight miles north of Pekisko and five miles
west of Longview Post Office.

The gauge, which is a plain staff gauge graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a
post driven into the bed of the stream near the right bank. The zero (eley. 91.97) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank, 55 feet
S. 700. y^\ from the gauge.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for 300 feet above and below the gauge. The right bank is low
and wooded, and may overflow in flood stages: the left bank is verj' high and rocky. The bed
is of clean coarse gravel and shifts during floods. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the traffic bridge one
and one half miles downstream with meter and weights, where also miscellaneous measure-
ments were made previous to the establishment of the station.

During 1913 the gauge was read by B. F. BrowTi.

PEKISKO CREEK AT PEKISKO.

This station was established on October 6, 1911, bv L. R. Brereton. It is located on the
N.W. X Sec. 8, Tp. 17, Rge. 2, W. oth :Mer., about 200 yards from Mr. Geo. Lane's ranche
house, and is about twcnty-fi\e miles southwest of High River

The gauge, which is a plain staff, graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
driven into the bed of the stream at the right bank about 10 feet downstream from the
bridge. The zero (elev. 93.90) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), situated on the left bank 125 feet N. ooo E. from the gauge.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 150 feet below the station. Both banks
are fairly low, sparsely covered with brush and trees, and liable to overflow^ in high stages of
the stream. The bed is composed of fine gravel.

Discharge measurements are made from a small suspension foot-bridge at high stages and
at a wading section near the station in low water. The initial point for soundings is the
stream side of the large tree on the left bank to which the end of the bridge is attached.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Mrs. R. W. L. Cowell.

STIMSON CREEK NEAR PEKISKO.

This station was established on June 30, 1912, by F. R. Burfield, to replace the station
established October 6, 1911, on the S.E. '4 Sec. 14, Tp. 17, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer. It is located
on the N.W. H Sec. 2, Tp, 17. Rge. 2, West of the 5th Mer., near E. R. Baker's ranche.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
driven into the bed of the stream near the right bank. The zero (elev. 90.20) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank 19.5 feet
northwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and below the gauge. Both banks are fairly
high, grassy and not liable to overflow. The bed is of gravel, clean, and not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made at a wading section about 15 feet downstream from
the gauge. In high water, measurements may be made from a bridge about 10 feet upstream
from the gauge.

During 1913 from April 12th to October 4th the gauge was read by E. R. Baker,

FINDLAY A.VD MCDOUGAL DITCH NEAR HIGH RIVER.

This station was established on .June 17, 1911. bv ,J. C. Milligan. It is located on the
S.W. M Sec. 31, Tp, 18, Rge. 29, W. 4th Mer., about four and half miles west of the town of
High River.

The gauge is a plain staff, graduated to feet and inches. It is nailed to a post driven into
the left bank of the ditch. The zero (elev. 99.25) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00) situated on the right bank, about 50 feet do^\^lstream from the gauge.

BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for 150 feet above and below the station. The right bank is built
up from the excavation of the ditch, and would overflow if the headgates were opened to
their fullest e.xtent. The left bank is high and clean and will not overflow. The bed is of mud,
but is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made with meter and rods at a wading section near the
gauge.

The gauge was not read during 1913 and in consequence the daily discharges cannot be
computed.

LITTLE BOW DITCH AT HIGH RIVER.

This station was established August 1st, 1910, by J. C. Keith. It is located on
the S.W.M Sec. 6, Tp. 19, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer. 100 feet from the power station and pump-
ing well of the town of High River.

The gauge,whieh is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to the left
bank. The zero (elev. 92.07) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), situated on the right bank 60 feet upstream from the gauge.

The channel is straight for several hundred feet above and below the station. Both
banks are high, clean, and steep and will not overflow.

Discharge measurements are made by wading, or from planks laid across the ditch, with
current meter and rods.

During 1913 the gauge was read daily by Philip Weinard.

This canal, about 2,000 feet in length, was built bj' the Alberta Government, to divert
water from Highwood River into Little Bow River. At a point about two miles above the town
of High River, water is turned from the Hoghwood River into a spring creek, and at the
confluence of that creek with the Highwood a dam diverts the waters of spring creek into the
Little Bow Ditch, and thence into the Little Bow River.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

HIGHWOOD RIVER AT HIGH RIVER.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was first established some years ago, by the Irrigation Sun-eys. It was
re-estabUshed on May 28, 1908, by P. M. Sauder. It is located at the highway bridge in the
town of High River, on the N.W. ^ See. 6, Tp. 19, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer.

A plain staff gauge, graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened vertically to the
downstream face of the centre pier. The zero (elev. 9162) is referred to a bench mark (assu-
med elev. 100.00) on the southwest corner of the concrete pier supporting the north end of the
Canadian Pacific Railway Bridge.

The channel is straight for about 300 feet above and below the station. The right bank
is low and liable to overflow. It is composed of gravel and sand and covered with brush.
The left bank is low, but is protected from overflow by a crib work. The current is swift at
high stages of the stream, but is sluggish in low water. _

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the inside edge of the crib abutment, supporting the north end of the
bridge. Distances are marked on the bottom chord of the bridge at everj^ five feet from the
initial point. There is an eddy about the centre pier and special care must be exercised by the
hydrographer in making discharge measurements at this station. At extreme low water, a
check measurement is made at a wading station about 300 yards below the bridge.

During a flood in 1908, Highwood River overflowed its left bank some distance above the
traffic bridge and did considerable damage to property. To prevent a repetition of this occur-
rence, a highwater overflow channel has been constructed from the Lineham miU pond to the
river. The water carried off through this spillway does not pass the gauging station. Mis-
cellaneous measurements of this flow were made on the same day that Highwood River was
measured. The discharge of this spillway and that of Little Bow Ditch should both be added
to the discharge of Highwood River to obtain the total yield of the drainage area.

During 1913, from April 27th to December 31st the gauge was read by W. E. M. Holmes.

traffic bridge on the surveyed trail about one mile east of Aldersyde, in the N.W. U Sec. 17,
Tp. 20. Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer.

A chain gauge of the standard type was installed in 1913. It is fastened on the right
span of the bridge. The length of the chain is 21.02 feet from bottom of weight to marker
The zero (elev. 90.64) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00)
situated on the left bank, near the north end of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 1000 feet above and 150 feet below the station. Both banks
are high, clear of brush and not liable to overflow. The bed is of coarse gravel with a scatte-
ring of large stones and boulders at and near the section. The latter affect the velocity
observations to some extent. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the stream face of the north or left abutment.

During 1913 the gauge was read by L. W. Barrett.

The discharge of the Little Bow Ditch at High River should be added to those given to
obtain the total yield of the drainage area.

BOW RIVER NEAR NAMAKA.

This station wa.s osstablished in September, 1909, by P. M. Sander. Tt was originally
located on Sec. 31, Tp. 21, Rge. 25, W. 4th Mer. ]:)uring 1911 and 1912 no records were
obtained, on account of the interference of construction work on the South(>rn Alberta Land
Company's flam, which crosses the river at Johnstone Island In May, 1913, the station was
moved bv th*; Companv to its present position one half mile above the dam, on the N.E.''4
Sec. 32, tp. 21, Rge. 2.5, W. 4th Mer.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge is a 6" x 2" plank, graduated to feet and tenths and is driven into the river bed
at the right bank. The gauge readings give the water elevation in feet above mean sea level,
(C.P.R. datum. The elevation of the gauge is referred to a bench mark (elev. 2969.10) on a
tree stump 30' N.SOo.W. of the N. W. corner of the right cable tower.

The channel is straight for 1,000 feet above and 1,500 feet below the station. The right
bank is low, gravelly and liable to overflow at high stages. The left bank is high, covered
mostly with large boulders, and is not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is rocky
and is not liable to shift. There is one channel at all stages.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable and car. The initial point for
soundings is the north face of the bottom stringer of the cable tower on the right bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by R. B. Bowen, timekeeper in the employ of the
Southern Alberta Land Company.

BOW RIVER NEAR BASSANO.

This station was established on August 20, 1909, by the Department of Natural Resour-
ces, Canadian Pacific Railway Company. The station was moved in May 191.3 from its
original position one mile above the Company's dam to a position one half mile below the
dam. It is located near the quarter line of the S. V2 See. 2, Tp. 21, Rge. 19, W. 4th Mer., at
the Horseshoe bend, three and one half miles southeast of the town of Bassano.

The gauge, which is a 2" x 8" timber graduated to feet and tenths, is driven into the bed
of the river at the left bank at the cable, and stayed from the bank. The gauge readings give
the water elevation in feet above mean sea level (C.P.R. datum). The elevation of the gauge
is referred to a bench mark (elev. 2526.14) on a tree stump on the right bank, 27
feet and 16 feet from the upstream and downstream sides of the cable tower, respectively.

The channel is straight for about one half mile above and below the station. The left
bank is high steep bluffs, clean and not liable to overflow. The right bank is high, lightly
wooded and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of large boulders
which may shift at high stages. There is one channel at all stages.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable and ear. The initial point for
soundings is a stake on the left bank and the distances are marked on a tag wire upstream
from the cable.

During 1913, the gauge was read by employees of the Canadian Pacific Railway,
Department of Natural Resources. Readings were taken until July on a gauge at the dam,
but these could not be used for computing daily discharge.

LITTLE BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.
General Description.

The source of Little Bow River is a spring in the Town of High River in section 6,
township 19, range 28, west of the fourth meridian. From here it flows in a southeasterly
direction for one hundred miles and empties into the Belly River. In the first few miles, the
natural flow is dependent entirely on a number of small springs and coulees which are dry
most of the year, but later is augmented by the flow from Mosquito Creek, which drains
the south and westerly part of the drainage basin.

There is a comparatively large flow in this stream during the spring freshets, but during
summer it would under natural conditions dry up. There are a large number of ranchers and
settlers on this stream and it is very important that there should be a good flow for domestic
and stock watering purposes. For this reason, the Provincial Government has constructed a
canal and diverts water from Highwood River into Little Bow River whenever required.

MOSviUITO CREEK NEAR NANTON.

This station was established August 1, 1908. by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at a traffic
bridge, about four miles from Nanton, on the road from Nan ton to Cayley. The bridge is on a
road diversion on the N.E. U Sec. 30, Tp. 16. Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed in a stifling
box in the left bank a few yards upstream from the bridge. It is referred to two spike heads
on the south side of the bridge pier at the right bank; elevation 10.22 above the zero of the
gauge.

The channel is straight for about 175 feet below the station, then curves to the left.
Above the station the channel curves slightly to the left for about 500 feet, then it turns
sharply to the left. The right bank is low near the water's edge but is high a few feet from It.
Sand and mud deposit on this bank in high water. The left bank is high and is of solid clay
with a few boulders. There is only one channel at low water. The bridge piers divide the
stream into three channels at flood stage.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge at high water and flood stages. The
initial point For soundings is the north end of the bridge The current is very sluggish at the
bridge during low water and during this stage discharge measurements are made at wading
sections above or below the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Wm. Monkman. *

NANTON CREEK NEAR NANTON.

This station was established August 3. 1908, by P. M. Sauder. It was originally located
on the N.W. 34" Sec. 20, Tp. IG, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer., but was moved in St'ptombor 1913, by
R. Palmer to the S.E. yi See. 19, Tp. 16, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer.. The station is at the wooden
highway bridge three and one half miles northwest of the village of Nanton and one half mile
south of Mr. Monkman's house.

LITTLE BOW RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

143

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to the
south abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 93.33) is referred to a permanent
iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated at the old station on the right bank.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and below the station. Both banks are high,
grassy and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of gravel, not liable
to shift.

Measurements are made 50 feet downstream from the gauge, by wading. The initial
point for soundings is a stake at the left bank.

During 1913, from September 9th to October 31st, the gauge was read by W. Monkman.
During the earlier part of the season no observer was available.

OLDMAN RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Oldman River, one of the principal tributaries of the South Saskatchewan River, is
formed in the Livingstone range of the Rocky Mountains by the junction of four small
rivers, viz.-Livingstone, Northwest Branch, West Branch and Racehorse Creek; it flows in a
south and easterly derection to near Cowley, where it is joined by the Crowsnest and South-
fork Rivers. Between Cowley and Kipp, where it empties into the Belly River, the Oldman
River is augmented by several creeks, its course being easterly and northerly. It drains the
area bounded on the north by the parallel of latitude through 59° 20', on the south by the
parallel through 49" 20', and on the west by the Great Divide, this area being estimated to
contain about 2,235 square mUes, with topography varying from mountains to rolling
prairie.

The bed of the river is of rock and gravel and has a large fall, with consequent swift water
interspersed with falls and rapids, but it changes to quick sand and mud after reaching the
prairie region where the current is more sluggish.

The flow of this river, draining as it does mountain ranges with peaks extending above
the snow line, is subject to great changes, caused by melting snow and heavy summer rains in
the mountains. Floods occur regularly in both May and June, the one in June generally
rising higher and lasting longer. From this time on, however, the flow is normally steady but
gradually decreases until the minimum is reached during January and February.

Up to the present, however, no power has been developed on this river, but investiga-
tions with that end in \dew are being made.

The channel is straight for eighty feet above and seventy feet below the gauge. The
right bank is wooded and may overflow during high water. The left bank is wooded and low.
The bed of the channel is stony, and not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made by wading, twenty feet upstream from the gauge.
The initial point for soundings is a post on the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by F. N. Loekwood.

MUDDYPOUND CREEK .\T HART.S RANCHE.

This station was established Julv 27, 1908, bv H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the foot
bridge on L. O. Hart's ranche on the S.W. H Sec. 27, Tp. 11, Rge. 28, W. 4th :Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and liundredths, is placed at the left
bank, 15 feet upstream from the bridge. The zero (elev. 90.06) is referred to a permanent
iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) 35 feet northeast of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 30 feet above and 1 10 feet below the station. Both banks are
high, composed of clay, but liable to overflow in extreme floods. The bed is of clean gravel.
The current is fairlv swift.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge in high water, the initial point for
soundings being marked at the left end of the bridge. In low stages the creek is waded about
100 feet upstream.

During 1913, the gauge was read bj- Mrs. M. E. Hart.

WILLOW CREEK NEAR MACLEOD.

This station was established July 1, 1909, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the traffic
bridge on the S.E. % Sec. 26. Tp. 9, Rge. 26, W. 4th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is located about 300
yards upstream from the bridge and near Mr. McLean's stable. It is driven into the bed of
the creek and fixed to the bank with braces. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.84) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located 39 feet northeast of the gauge
and 160 feet southwest from the corner of Mr. McLean's stable.

OLDMAN RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The channel is straight for about 600 feet above and below the station. The right bank is
high and wooded. The left bank is low, wooded, and liable to overflow in high water stages.
The bed of the stream is of clean gravel. The slope is uniform and the current swiit.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge during high stages, the initial point
for soundings being marked on the downstream handrail on a line with the face of the north
abutment. During low stages the river is waded at the same section, and when very low it is
waded at the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Hugh McLean.

OLDMAN RIVER NEAR MACLEOD.

This station was established on Julv 12, 1910, bv H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the X.W. % Sec. 10, Tp. 9, Rge. 26, W. 4th Aler.

The gauge, which is a plain statf graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to a crib
protecting the pier near the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.84) is referred to a
bench mark on spikes in a wooden bent (assumed elv. 100.00) located 93 feet east of the
gauge.

The channel is straight for 400 feet above and 1,000 feet below the station. Both banks
are low, wooded and liable to overflow in extreme high water. The bed is composed of clean
gravel, and shifts during high water stages. The current is smft, especially during high water.

Discharge measiu-ements are made from the bridge, the initial point for soundings being
at the north end of the handrail on the downstream side of the bridge.

During 191.3 the gauge was read by ]Mrs. Walter .Jackson.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913.

PINCHER CREEK AT PINCHER CREEK.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

Under the direction of Arthur O. Wheeler, a regular gauging station was established on
Pineher Creek at Pineher Creek, in the spring of 1898. On August 13, 1906, J. F. Hamilton
replaced the old gauge by a new one. Owing to local improvements the gauge has since been
changed but the station remains practically in the same place as established by Mr. Wheeler.
It is located on the S.W\ % Sec. 23, Tp. 6, Rge. 30, W. 4th Mer., at the steel traffic bridge in
the town of Pineher Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths is seeurelj^ fastened
to the breakwater on the right bank, about twenty feet below the traffic bridge. The zero
of the gauge (elev. 86.35) is referred to a bench mark (assumed elevation 100.00) located on
the right concrete abutment of the bridge.

The channel is straight for about 200 yards above and 300 yards below the bridge. Both
banks are high, the right being well cribbed; neither is liable to overflow. The bed is rock
and free from vegetation. At the wading section, the channel is straight for about 500 yards
above and 70 yards below. Both banks are high, clean and not Uable to overflow. The bed
is gravel, mixed \\ith heavy gumbo clay.

During high water, discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the
bridge. At low stages, the creek is waded 450 yards upstream.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Hugh Bertles.

The town of Pineher Creek has a gravity waterworks system, which diverts water from
the creek at a point about three and one quarter miles above the bridge, and the records at
this station do not include the water used by the town.

SOUTHFORK RIVER NEAR COWLEY.

This station was established on August 5, 1909, by II. C. Ritchie. It is located at
G. W. Buchanan's ranche on the S.W. }4 Sec. 2, Tp. 7, Rge. 1, W. 5th Mer.

The gauge, which is a phiin staff graduated to feet and hundi-edths, is securely fastened
by braces to supports on the rigljt bank, and is about five minutes' walk from Air. Buchanan's
house. The zero of the gauge (elev. 92.34) is referred to a permanent u-on bench mark (as-
sumed elevation 100.00), located on the left bank of the river, 25 feet southwest from the
gauge.

The river flows in one channel, which is slightly curved for some distances above and
below the gauge. The left bank is high and vnM not overflow. The right bank is low and
liable to be submerged during flood stages of the stream. The bed is composed of coarse
gravel. The current is moderate.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the traffic bridge on the
S.E. ^ Sec. 2, Tp. 7, Rge. 1, W. 5th Aler. The initial point for soundings is marked on the
superstructure in line with the face of the abutment on the left bank.

During 1913 the gauge was read bj^ G. W. Buchanan.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed at the left
bank. It is referred to a bench mark on a spike at the northeast corner of the mill, (elev.
10.97 above the zero of the gauge).

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 300 feet below the station. Both banks
are high, clean rocky and will not overflow. The bed of the stream is of gravel, giving a
stable cross section. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements in flood stages are made from the bridge. In normal and low
water stages the creek is waded 50 feet upstream from the gauge,. the initial point for sound-
ings being a stake on the left bank.

During 1913 the gauge was read by K. B. Parsons.

CANTOX CREEK NEAR MOUNTAIN MILL.

This station was established July 6, 1910, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located on the N.E. %
Sec. 14, Tp. 6, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer., near G. Biron's ranehe.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths., is placed at the left
bank within 75 feet of ]Mr. Biron's corral. It is referred to a bench mark on a spike in a tree
^\^thin fifteen feet; elevation 14.49.

The channel is straight for 150 feet above and 30 feet below the station. Both banks are
high, wooded, and -nill not overflow. The bed of the stream is of clean gravel and rock. The
current is very swift and turbulent. On this account discharge measurements are made about
one half mile upstream at the traffic bridge on the road allowance to the Beaver coal mines.

During high water stages, discharge measurements are made from the bridge; the initial
point for soundings is on a line with the face of the left abutment. At ordinary stages the
stream is waded about 100 yards downstream, the initial point for soundings being marked by
a hub on the left bank.

During 1913 the gauge was read by G. Biron.

OLDMAN RIVER NEAR COWLEY.

This station was established by H. C. Ritchie, on September 15, 1908. It is located at a
ford on the N.E. '4 Sec. 34, Tp. 7, Rge. 1, W. 5th Mer., and is approximatively four
raile.5 northeast of Cowley.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is securely fastened to
a post on the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 92. 8) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the right bank of the river 90 feet east of the
gauge.

The channel is straight for about 900 feet above and 250 feet below the section. The bed
is of rock and gravel and is free from vegetation. The current has considerable velocity but

164

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

GEORGE v., A. 1914

flows smoothly untill about 150 feet below the section, where it breaks into small rapids. Both
banks are high and wooded, neither being liable to overflow.

Discharge measurements are made at the gauge, where a cable station has been erected
for use during high water stages. During low water the river is waded at the same section.
The points for soundings are permanently marked by a tagged wire, stretched directly above
the cable.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. H. Hughes.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

TODD CREEK AT ELTON S RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established by H. C. Ritchie on August 3, 1909. It is located seven
miles northwest of Cowley, at a private foot bridge about twenty feet from Cecil Elton's
house, on the S.W. % Sec. 19, Tp. 8, Rge. 1, W. 5th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is driven into the bed
of the stream and securely braced to the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 93.02) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), twelve feet northeast of the
gauge.

The channel is straight for about 55 feet above and 60 feet below the gauge. The right
bank is high and wooded and Liable to overflow in extreme high water. The left bank is woo-
ded, and liable to overflow for about six feet. The bed lies in one channel and is composed of
clean sand and gravel. The current is inclined to be swift at high stages, but is quite sluggish
at low.

Discharge measurements are made from the foot bridge with current meter and rods.
During high stages measurements are made from a private traffic bridge 1000 feet downstream.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Cecil Elton.

Cecil Elton and Capt. CardweU have irrigation ditches which divert water at points
above this station.

This station was established on May 26, 1910, bv H. C. Ritchie; it replaced the station
on Sec. 12, Tp. 8, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer., established August 2. 1909. It is located on the
N.E. H Sec. 14, Tp. 8, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer.,- at John Ross's ranche, five miles north of Lund-
breck station.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is located at the
right bank. The zero (elev. 94.53) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed lev.
100.00), located on the right bank of the creek, 30 feet north of the gauge and 20 feet from the

The channel is curved above the gauge and is straight 50 feet below. Both banks are low
and partly covered with bushes, but are not liable to overflow. The bed is of clean sand and
gravel. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made with meter and rods from a temporary foot bridge
at the gauge. The initial point for soundings is a stake on the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by William McKaj'.

crowsxest river at luxdbreck.

This station was established September 7, 1907, by P. M. Sauder. It is located on the
N.E. % Sec. 26, Tp. 7, Rge. 2, W. 5th JNIer., at the traffic bridge just north of Lundbreck.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed at the left
bank twenty feet do-mistream from the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.76) is referred
to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the north abutment of the traffic bridge.

The channel is straight for 250 feet above and 1,500 feet below the station. The right
bank is high, wooded and -nnH not overflow. The left bank is low, wooded and liable to over-
flow in extreme high water. The bed of the stream is of rock, giving a stable cross-section.
The current is s-^-if t and tumultuous.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge, the initial point for soundings being
marked on the lower downstream chord, on a line wdth the face of the left abutment.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Ed. Marlow.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

CROWSNEST RIVER NEAR FRANK.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on July 28, 1910, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the N.E. % See. 36, Tp. 7, Rge. 4 W. 5th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a tree at
the left bank about twenty feet downstream. It is referred to a bench mark, consisting of
spikes driven into a tree stump, about three feet from the gauge; elevation 9.43 feet above
datum of gauge. .

The channel is straight for about 200 feet above the station and for oOO teet below, both
banks being high, wooded and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is clean gravel.

During high water, discharge measurements are made from the bridge, the points for
soundings being painted on the lower chord. In low stages the river is waded at the same
section. The discharge measurements made at this station during 1913 were all under open
water conditions as the river at this point remained open during the winter months.

During 1913, the gauge was read by I. Wilson.

MCGILLIVRAY CREEK NEAR COLEMAN.

This station was established on July 23, 1913, by R. Palmer. It is located on the S.E. %
Sec. 7, Tp. 8, Rge. 4, W. 5th INler., about 150 feet north of the traffic bridge crossing the
stream a short distance west of the town of Coleman.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a tree at
the right banks. The zero of the gauge (elev. 97.01) is referred to a bench mark (assumed
elev, 100.00), located on a poplar stump on the left bank about thirty feet from the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and below the station. The left bank is low but
the right is high. The bed is gravel and the current is swift.

Measurements are made with a current meter by wading near the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Thos. Blower.

OLDMAN RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

SUMMIT CREEK NEAR CROWSNEST.

This station was established by N. Me. L. Sutherland on April 29, 1912. It is located
on the S.W. yi Sec. 12, Tp. 8, Rge. 6, W. 5th INIer., and is about a quarter of a mile south of
the railway station at Crowsnest, 1000 feet south of the Canadian Pacific Railway concrete
dam and 450 feet south of A. Good's dam.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a tree on
the right bank of the creek. It is referred to a bench mark on a stump, 18 feet downstream
from the gauge; elevation 3.99 feet above the datum of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 15 feet above and 50 feet below the gauge. The right bank is
high, heavily timbei-ed and not liable to overflow. The left bank is low, wooded, and liable to
overflow. The bed of the stream is of gravel and clear of vegetation. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made by wading at the gauge, the initial point for soundings
being a post on the left bank. At low stages measurements are made with a weir at a point 15
feet below the gauge.

There is no observer for the gauge at this station.

WATERTON RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.
General Description.

Waterton River rises in the northwestern portion of the state of Montana, on the eastern
slope of the Rocky Mountains. It flows in a northerly direction and, passing through a chain
of lakes near the International Boundary, known as Waterton Lakes, it continues in a north
and easterly direction and finally empties into Belly River near Stand Off, Alberta.

The topography of the basin is of a varied character, ranging from the mountainous
regions of ;^Iontana to the rolUng prairie of Southern Alberta. The tributaries are mostly in
the upper portion of the basin, near the International Boundary and from the west side.

There is a large snow-fall in the upper portion of the basin, and the melting of this
combined with heavy rains often causes big floods on this river in the early summer. There-
after the river steadily decreases in volume, until the minimum is reached about mid-winter.

Waterton Lakes offer a very favourable site for a storage reservoir, approximately
fourteen miles long and one mile wide. The steep rocky banks of the narrows is an ideal site
for the construction of a dam. The flow could be more than doubled during the summer
months and used for irrigation purposes, or a power project could easily be developed.

waterton river at waterton mills.

This station was established on August 26, 1908, by P. M. Sander. It is located on the
N.E. }{ Sec. 8, Tp. 2, Rge. 29, W. 4th Mer., about 250 feet below the river's outlet from the
Lower Waterton Lake.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed in a stilUng
box at the right bank. The zero (elev. 90.51) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00), situated within six feet of the gauge.

The channel is wide and straight for 250 feet above and 400 feet below the station. Both
banks are high, slightly wooded and -nill not overflow. The bed of the stream is rough and
rockj' but is not liable to shift. The current is always rather swift at mid-stream.

Discharge measurements are made from a cable car during high stages. In low water the
stream can be waded almost across, the deep channel in the middle being taken from the
cable car. The measurements are affected frequently by hea\^' winds. The points for
soundings are marked by a tagged wire stretched above the cable.

During 1913 the gauge was read by H. H. Hanson.

CROOKED CREEK NEAR AVATERTON MILLS.

This station was established September 15, 1909, by H. C. Riteliio. It was at first
located on the S.E. % See. 22, Tp. 2, Rge. 29, W. 4th Mer., but as, an observer could not be
secured at this point, it was moved on June 15, 1911, by L. J. Gleeson to a point 250 feet from
Ernest Allred's house on the S.W. H See. 23, Tp. 2, Rge. 29, W. 4th Mer. It was again
moved on October 15, 1912, by G. F. Deas to the S.W. 'A Sec. 22, Tp. 2, Rge. 29, W 4th Mer.

WATERTON RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

185

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is securely faste-
ned to the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 89.48) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the right bank 25 feet from the gauge. The old
bench mark is at elevation 101.58 referred to the present system of levels.

The stream flows in one channel at all stages. It is straight for 50 feet above and 100 feet
below the station. The right bank is clean and not liable to overflow. The left bank is
covered with brush and may overflow in extreme high water.

Discharge measurements are made by wading, 30 feet downstream from the gauge. The
initial point for soundings is at a stump of a small tree on the left bank. During flood periods
the stream cannot be waded at this point but gaugings can be made at a bridge about 1 14
miles downstream.

This stream is subject to sudden rises in stage due to rains and it is probable that the
figures for the total run-off are slighly lower than they should be.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Frank Rowe.

BELLY RIVER DRAINAGE RIVER BASIN.

General Description.

Belly River rises near Chief Mountain in northern Montana. The main stream is aug-
mented on the United States side of the boundary line by Middle Fork and on the Cana-
dian side by North Fork. From the junction with North Fork on Sec. 21, Tp. 1, Rge. 28, W.
4th Mer., the river flows in a winding, but northeasterly course until it is joined by Oldman
River in Sec. 27, Tp. 9, Rge. 23, W. 4tli Mer., where it turns southeasterly, and after making
a loop flows in a north and easterly direction until it joins Bow River in Sec. 27, Tp. 11, Rge.
13, W. 4th Mer., and forms the South Saskatchewan River.

The topography of the basin is of the most varied character, ranging from the mountai-
nous regions of Montana and the rolling prairie and foothills at the boundary to the level
prairie which extends from Lethbridge to the junction with the Bow River. The upper tri-
liutaries drain a forested region; the main stream flows through a deep valley with many
clumps of large whitewood on its banks.

There is an abundant sno\\'fall in the upper portion of the basin, but the precipitation
diminishes into semi-arid conditions near Lethbridge. At first Belly River is a comparatively
clear stream but soon after crossing the boundar}^ line it gradually becomes turbid, especially
at the times of high water. The greater portion of the sediment is caused by the washing
away of banks and cutting of new channels. Freshets caused by melting snow and heavy
rains are frequent in the summer. The maximum flow usuallj^ occurs in June or July and after
that the flow gradually decreases until it reaches the minimum in January or Februarj'.

As yet very little use has been made of the water in this basin. In the upper regions*
where water could easily be diverted, it is not required for irrigation purposes and farther
downstream it would be an expensive undertaking.

There are a couple of small private irrigation schemes diverting water from this river,
and the city of Lethbridge receives its domestic supply from the same source.

BELLY RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

187

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The Canadian Pacific Railway Company have located and may construct a canal from
BeUy River to supply their irrigation system, if St. INIary River is found deficient. A survey
and estimate of the cost of this proposed canal were made by the Government during 1912,
and a copy of the report may be seen in the report of the Commissioner of Irrigation for 1912.
There are" also a number of feasible power sites in the upper regions which will no doubt be
developed when there is a market.

BELLY RIVER NEAR MOUNTAIN VIEW.

This station was established on November 1, 1911, by H. R. Carscallen. It is situated in
the X.E. K Sec. 5, Tp. 2, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer., and is six miles southwest of Mountain
View P. 0.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank. The zero (elev. 88.16) is referred to a perma-
nent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated beneath the centre of the cable support
on the right bank.

The channel is straight for 250 feet above the station and for 350 feet below. The bed
is composed of gravel and sand. The right bank is high, slightly wooded, and will not overflow
except during extreme high water. The left bank is low, quite well wooded, and will overflow.

Discharge measurements are made from a cable car, bj^ means of a current meter and
staj' wire. The initial point for soundings is a spike driven into the downstream cable support
on the left bank, and the points for soundings are marked by red paint on a measuring wire.

During 1913, the gauge was read bj' J. N. West.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to a pile
supporting the bridge at the left bank. The zero (elev. 93.06) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located close to the east bank about 20 feet north of. the
bridge.

The channel is curved for about 100 feet above the bridge and straight for 200 feet below.
Both banks are high, clear of brush, rocky and liable to overflow in extreme high water. The
bed of the stream is composed of stones covered wth sand and gravel.

Discharge measurements are made during high water from the bridge. In low water the
east branch dries up and the west branch is waded just below the junction.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Chas. H. Findlay of Mountain View.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

CHRISTIANSON DITCH NEAR MOUNTAIN VIEW.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on September 14, 1911, by L. J. Gleeson. It is situated in
the S.E. X Sec. 12, Tp. 3, Rge. 28, W. 4th Mer., on Elias Christianson's irrigation ditch. It is
six miles northwest of Mountain View and one quarter of a mile south of Big Bend police
post.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and tenths, is driven into the channel of
the ditch on the line of the gauging section. The zero of the gauge (elev. 97.10) is referred to a
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the left bank close to the gauge.

The channel is straight for 300 feet above and 100 feet below the station. The main
ditch is about 400 feet long and 4 feet wide, and has a good fall.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Christiansen.

BELLY RIVER NEAR STAND OFF.

This station was established on May 27, 1909, by H. C. Ritchie. It is eighteen miles
south of the town of Macleod, and is located on the s!^E. X Sec. 21, Tp. 6, Rge. 2.5, W. 4th
Mer., 200 yards from George Pearson's house.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is situated on the left bank about 200
yards from George Pearson's house. The gauge is graduated to feet and hundredths and is
laid on two posts, sunk in the bank. The zero (elev. 91.82) is refeiTed to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) near by.

For a distance of 75 feet abo^^e and 60 feet below the gauge, the channel is straight. The
current runs smoothly with a moderate velocity over a bed of clean gravel. Both banks are
low, free from brush, and Uable to overflow during high stages of the river. Since the esta-
blishment of this station the cross-section has changed very little, if any, but owing to the
sharp turns in the channel the river is liable to take a new course altogether in times of
extreme flood.

Discharge measurements are made during the open season from the traffic bridge on the
N.E. ^ Sec. 21, Tp. 6, Rge. 25, W. 4th Mer., one mile upstream from the gauge. The points
for soundings are painted on the lower chord of the superstructure. The initial point is at the
left approach. During the frozen period measurements are made at or near the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by George Pearson.

STREAM MEASURMEENTS, 1913

BELLY RIVER NEAR LETHBRIDGE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

THs station was established on August 31, 1911, by A. W. P. Lowrie. It is located on the
traffic bridge on the N.W. % Sec. 1, Tp. 9, Rge. 22, W. 4th Mer., and is about two and a half
miles from Lethbridge P. 0.

A chain gauge of the standard type was installed on June 3, 1913. It is situated near the
second pier from the right bank. The length of the chain is 30 feet from the bottom of
weight to marker. The zero of the gauge (elev. 85.70) is referred to a bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00) marked on the right abutment by an arrow in white paint.

The channel is straight for 800 feet above and 2000 feet below the station. Above the
station, the right bank is high and will not overflow. Below the station it is low and will
overflow at flood stages. The left bank is low and Uable to overflow. The bed of the stream
is gravel and silt; it is liable to shift. At high stages there are five channels and at low
stages three.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is at the left bank and is marked by a white arrow on the handrail. Dis-
tances are marked every ten feet on the handrail.

During 1913, the gauge was read by WiUiam Bedster.

ST. MARY RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description..

St. IMary River, an important tributary of the Belly River and so indirectly of the
South Saskatchewan River, heads in northern Montana on the eastern slope of the main
range of the Rocky Mountains. It starts from the great Blaekfoot glacier and receives
affluents from numerous lesser glaciers. These streams imite within a short distance from
their source and flow into Upper St. JSIary Lake. Below this lake and in close proximity, is
lower St. IMary Lake, the aggregate lengths of the two being about 22 miles. The river flows
out of the lower lake, at an elevation of 4460 feet above mean sea level, and takes a northerly
course through the foothiUs to the International Boundary. From the boundary it flows in a
north and easterly direction tlorough a rolling country, finally emptying into the Belly River
near Lethbridge, Alberta.

The basin is bounded on the south by the Rocky Mountains, on the vv^est by the watershed
between Belly and St. Mary Rivers and on the east by the watershed between Milk and
St. Mary Rivers. The upper portion of the basin is hea\Tily timbered and receives its precipi-
tation mostly in the shape of snowfall; the lower and major portion is totally devoid of tree
growth and has a small precipitation.

The river flows through a very deep valley having steep banks making the diversion of
water from this stream for irrigation an expensive undertaking. In Canada the A.lberta Rail-
way and Irrigation Company has water rights on this river. The headgates of their canal is at
Kimball, 5 miles north of the boundary, and they already have 231 miles of ditch constructed,
which irrigates land surrounding Lethbridge. Further construction is being planned and the
works, when completed, will irrigate approximately 500,000 acres of at present semi-arid
land.

As this is an international river, discharge measurements are taken on it by the Hydro-
graphic Surveys branches of both the Canadian and American Governments. The hydrogra-
phers of both countries use a common gauging station near Kimball.

FIDLER brother's DITCH AT BOUNDARY CREEK.

This station was established on September 13, 1911, by L. J. Gleeson. It is situated in
the S.E. X Sec. 19, Tp. 1, Rge. 26, W. 4th Mer., on Fidler Brothers' irrigation ditch, eighteen
miles southwest of Cardston.

The channel of the ditch is straight for a distance of thirty feet above and twenty below
the gauge. The soil is clay with a little sand.

The gauge is placed in the centre of the ditch, 100 feet downstream from the headgate. It
is a plain staff graduated to feet and tenths. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96.10) is referred
to a wooden bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the left bank, eight feet west
of the gauge and on the line of the gauging section.

Discharge measurements can be made with a small Price meter, but on account of the
small velocity, a weir is more suitable.

During 1913, the gauge was read bj- Jas. Fidler.

BOUNDARY CREEK AT FIDLER BROTHERS RANCHE.

This Station was established June 18, 1913, by F. R. Burfield, and W. A. Burton. It is
about 17 miles by trail south of Cardston and is located on Fidler Brothers' ranche on the
N.W. % Sec. 20, Tp. 1, Rge. 26, W. 4th Mer. It is within 800 feet of the Boundary Creek P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is securely fastened
to a post at the right bank. The zero (elev. 96. 98) is referred to a permanent iron bencli mark
(assumed elev. 100.00), located 25 feet from the right bank of the stream and 10 feet below
the gauge rod.

The channel is straight for about 100 feet below and above the section. The current is
fairly swift. The bed is of gravel, but is not liable to shift. The left bank is high and the
right is low; neither is liable to overflow.

Discharge measurements are made by wading, ten feet below the gauge,

From June to December during 1913, the gauge was read once a day bj' Jas. Fidler.

ST. MARY RIVER NEAR KIMBALL.

This station was established by the Alberta Railway and Irrigation Company, in 1905.
It is located on the S.W. % See. 25, Tp. 1, Rge. 25, W. 4th Mer., about one mile above the
Albesta Railway and Irrigation Company's dam and headgate.

The gauge, which is a plain staff gi'aduated to feet and hundredths, is set in the right
bank, a few feet upstream from the cable. A trench, lined with plank, connects a stilling
box about the gauge with the channel in low water. The zero of the gauge (elev. 85.84) is re-
feiTed to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated near the cable sup-
port on the right bank. In addition to the staff gauge there is a Friez Water Stage register
located about one thousand feet upstream, which is installed in a concrete shelter at the right
bank and is maintained in co-operation with the United States Geological Survey. The zero
of the automatic gauge is 88.75, referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located
on a spike on the downstream side of the concrete gauge shelter.

The channel is straight for about 450 feet above and 400 feet below the station. Both
banks are high and not liable to overflow. The right bank is partly covered with scrub above
the station, but at and below the station it is clear. The bed of the stream is of gravel and is
liable to slight changes. The current is quite uniform all the way across the stream .

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable ear, and tagged wire at high and
ordinary stages. At low water periods, the river can be waded. The initial point for sound-
ings is the zero of the tagged wire, which is 44.8 feet the inside edge of the cable support on
the right bank.

During 1913, the staff gauge was read daily by J. M. Dunn who also looked after the
automatic gauge. The gauge records given are as far as possible those obtained from the
automatic gauge.

ALBERTA RAILW.\Y AND IRRIGATION COMPANY CANAL NEAR KIMBALL.

This station was establi.shed July 26, 1910, by F. H. Peters. It is located at the flume
over Rolph Creek on the S.E. ;4 Sec. 21, Tp. 2, Rge. 24, W. 4th Mer. It is by trail fifteen
miles southeast of Cardston, and six miles northeast of Kimball.

No. 25c.— 14^

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to the
side of the flume five feet downstream from the foot bridge. The datum of the gauge (assum-
ed elev. 100.00) is the bottom of the flume.

The flume carries all the water delivered to the company's irrigation system. It is 768
feet long, 27 feet wide, and 6 feet high (inside dimensions) and is perfectly straight. It is
built of smooth plank and has a fall of one hundredth of a foot in sixteen feet.

Discharge measurements are made from a small footbridge spanning the flume at a
point about midway from the ends. The initial point for soundings is the inside face of the
left side of the flume.

This canal and irrigation system is known locally as the Canadian Pacific Railway
Company's Lethbridge System.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. M. Dunn, ditch rider for the company.

ROLPH CREEK NEAR KIMBALL. *

This Station was established on IVIay 17, 1911, by L. J. Gleeson. It is located at the
Alberta Railway and Irrigation Compan^y-'s flume, in S.E. % Sec. 21, Tp. 2, Rge. 24, W. 4th
Mer. It is six miles northeast of Kimball and fifteen miles southeast of Cardston.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the
upstream side of the right wing wall. The zero (elev. 93.41) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located about 100 feet do-mistream on the left bank.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above the station and for 150 feet below. The bed is
gravelly in character and shifts during high water. Both banks are low, bare, and overflow
at high stages. While passing under the flume the water is carried over an apron built to
protect the piling from seom*.

Discharge measurements are made by wading at or near the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. M. Dunn.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

LEE CREEK AT CARDSTON.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on June 28, 1909, by H. C. Ritchie. It is located at a
footbridge in the eastern portion of the town of Cardston in the N.W. X See. 10, Tp. 3,
Rge. 25, W. 4th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a pile
near the east end of the footbridge. The zero (elev. 87.91) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank 100 feet upstream from the
gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 300 feet below the station. The bed of the
stream is composed of gravel with a thin covering of soft mud. In high water the current is
very swift, but in low water is comparatively slow. The right bank is of clay formation, high
and not liable to overflow. The left is low, gravelly and overflows during high water.

On account of the constantly shifting character of the bed during periods of high water,
measurements are made at the most suitable sections near the gauge. When the water is low,
a section 150 feet upstream from the footbridge is used. The initial point of soundings is on
the left bank and is marked wath a stake driven into the left bank, close to the water's edge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Ora S. Williams.

LEE CREEK AT LAYTON S RANCHE.

This station was established May 25, 1913, by F. R. Burfield. It is located on the

of Cardston. It is two miles upstream from the intake of the Cardston water supply.

ST. MARY' RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

213

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
driven into a crack in the rock and stayed to the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 88.14)
is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located at the fence north
of Mr. Layton's house, seven feet from the northwest corner.

The channel is straight for 300 feet above and 400 feet below the station. The right
bank is fairly high and covered with brush ; it may overflow in flood stages. The left bank is
high and clean and will not overflow. The bed of the stream is of solid rock, which is overlaid
with gravel near the right bank. There is a gravel bar 300 feet below the gauge.

Discharge measurements are maae at a point 15 feet upstream from the gauge, by
wading. The initial point for soundings is a spike driven into the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read bj' B. Layton.

ST. MARY RIVER AT WHITNEY S RANCHE.

This station was established on October 13, 1911, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located on
the N.E. % Sec. 26, Tp. 7, Rge. 22, W. 4th Mer., near W. D. Whitney's house, and is about
ten miles from Lethbridge P. O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
sunk in the bed of the river at the right bank. The zero of the gauge, (elev. 89.15), is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), near Mr. Whitney's house.

MILK RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Milk River rises on the eastern slope of the foothills in the Blaekfoot Indian Reserve in
the United States. Its headwaters run do-^\Ti in two main streams which are kno^\Ti, after
entering Canada, as the north and south branches. The north branch runs in a northeasterly^
direction through the Blaekfoot Resei-ve for a distance of about 15 miles and then enters Ca-
nada near the quarter mound on the south side of Section 3, Township 1, Range 23, West of
the Fourth ^leridian. From the international boundary the stream continues in a northeaster-
ly direction for about nine miles, when it bends to the east and runs in an easterly' direction
through the second tier of townships to its junction with the south branch at the centre of
Section 20, Township 2, Range 18, West of the Fourth Meridian.

The south branch runs to the south and east of, and parallels the north branch for a
distance of about 48 miles, as the crow flies, through the Blaekfoot Reserve, and then enters
Canada near the quarter mound on the south side of Section 1, Township 1, Range 20, West
of the Fourth ^Meridian. From the international boundary it runs in a northeasterly direction
to its junction with the north branch. From the junction of the two branches Milk River
runs in an easterly direction through the second tier of townships in Canada to the east
boundary of range 7. From this point the river runs in a southeasterly direction to its first
point of crossing the international boundary intotheUnitedStates. This first point of crossing
is near the quarter mound on the south side of Section 3, Township 1, Range 5, West of the
Fourth Meridian. From this point the river meanders in an easterly direction through
Canada and United States to a point on the international boundary about 900 feet west of
the east boundary of Section 1, Townsliip 1, Range 5, West of the Fourth Meridian, where
it finally crosses into the United States. This point is known as the "Eastern Crossing",
The length of the course of Milk River in Canada from the western crossing of the north
branch to the eastern crossing is 179 miles. The length of the course of the south branch in
Canada is 20 miles.

Throughout its course in Canada from the western crossing of the north branch to the
eastern crossing, IMilk River runs through a well defined valley bordered on each side by
a range of hills. The whole of its watershed in Canada is bald prairie land. The river receives
a number of small tributary creeks along its course, all of which discharge a considerable
volume of water during the spring freshets; usually they all dry up by about July 1, and have
no considerable discharge again until late in the fall, when some of them have a small flow for
perhaps a month before the freeze up.

The general conditions of flow in the river are such as are typical of all rivers which have a
watershed devoid of tree growth; that is, it is subject to extreme floods during the freshet
period and to correspondinglj' low flow during the summer months. From its headwaters to
the eastern crossing the total area of the watershed of INIilk River is 2,448 square miles. Of
this total amount 1,645 square miles are in Canada and 803 square miles in the United States.

NORTH BRANCH OF MILK RIVER NEAR PETERS RANCHE.

This station was established by P. M. Sander and F. H. Peters on July 21, 1909. It was
located on the N.E. ,'^ Sec. 13, Tp. 1, Rgo. 23, W. 4th Mer., but on the installation of an
automatic gauge on this stream in May 1913 the gauge was re-located on the N.E. '^ See. 11,
Tp. 1, Rge. 23, W. 4th Mer., which is about six miles by trail from Taylorville P. O. and
14 miles from KimbaU.

The gauge, which is of the Stevens Continuous type, is installed in a shelter and stilling
box on the left bank of the stream. Staff gauges are also installed inside and outside the
shelter. The zero of the gauge (elev. 93.58) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00) located a few feet upstream from the shelter on the left bank.

218

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The stream flows in one channel which is slightly curved at the gauge. The left bank is
high but the right might overflow in flood stages. The bed of the stream is of clay and gravel
and is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made at all stages except flood, by wading about 100 yards
downstream. During flood stages a small foot bridge some 300 yards below, or the cable and
car at the old station may be used.

During 1913, Wm. Wheeler made daily observations at the lower station first and then on
the rod outside the shelter as a check on the automatic gauge.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

NORTH BRANCH OF MILK RIVER AT KNIGHTS RANCHE.

This station was established bj' F. H. Peters and P. M. Sander on Julv 17, 1909. It is
located in the N.E. % See. IS, Tp. 2, Rge. 20, W. 4th Mer., almost directh' sonth of the
Knight Sugar Company's Horse-shoe ranehe buildings. It is about 33 miles by trail from
KimbaU.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a ])ost at
the right bank. The zero (elev. 90.70) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00), situated close to the initial point for soundings.

The stream flows in one channel about 44 feet wide at ordinary stages. It is straight for
about 150 feet above and 100 feet below the station. The right bank is composed of clay, is
high and not liable to overflow. The left bank is composed of light sandy loam, is low and
liable to overflow to quite a distance, during high stages of the stream. The bed of the stream
is composed of clay, gravel and boulders.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable, car, tagged wire and stay wire.
The initial point for sijundings is the face of a cedar post on the right bank. Discharge
measurements can be made by wading dm'ing low water.

During 1913, the gauge was read once a day by W. D. Whitney.

located on the S.W. X Sec. 19, Tp. 2, Rge. IS, W. 4th Mer. It is 17 miles by trail from
Milk River, three miles north of Mackie Brothers' buildings and one mile west of the junction
of the north and south branches.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fi.xed to a post at the
right bank. The zero (elev. 91.50) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00), located 2.5 feet from the edge of the right l>ank, and under the cable.

MILK RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

223

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The stream flows in one channel, which at ordinary- stages is about 60 feet wide. It is
straight for 200 feet above and about 150 feet below the station. Both banks of the stream
are low and liable to overflow at high stages. The bed of the stream is composed of gravel
and is constantly changing.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a cable, car, tagged wire, and stay wore.
The initial point for soundings is the face of a cedar post planted in the north bank and
marked "0 + 00".

As it was impossible to secure an observer, the gauge was not read during 1913.

SOUTH BRANCH OF MILK RIVER AT CROFF S RANCHE.

This station was estabUshed April 23, 1913, by W. A. Lamb of the United States Geologi-
cal Survey. It is located in the State of Montana, five miles south of the international
boundary' at Croff's ranche on the Blaekfoot Indian Reservation. It is on the S.W. X Sec. 29,
Tp. 37, X., Rge. 9, W., of JSIontana Principal Meridian, and is in line A\Tth the road allowance
between ranges 21 and 22, west of the 4th Meridian in Canada.

The gauge is a Stevens continuous automatic gauge set in a wooden shelter three feet
wide, four feet long and six feet high. It is set by a staff gauge in the float chamber, the
bottom of the record paper being equal to one foot on the staff gauge. Both gauges are
checked by the old chain gauge 15 feet downstream. The zero of the gauge (elev. 87.08) is re-
ferred to the top of an iron pipe (assumed elev. 100.00), set in the ground 15 feet back from
the gauge shelter.

The channel is straight for 350 feet above and 600 feet below the station. The right bank
is clear and wiU not overflow; the left bank is fairly high and clear and may overflow at
flood stages. The bed of the stream is of gravel, covered with mud where the current is not
swift; it is not likely to shift. There is one channel at all stages.

Discharge measurements during high stages are made by means of a cable and car
situated 150 feet upstream from the gauge. During ordinary" stages measurements are made
by wading at the gauge. The initial point for soundings is the middle of the river side of the
gauge house.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v.. A. 1914

SOUTH BRANCH OF MILK RIVER AT MACKIES RANCHE.

This station was established July 14, 1909, by P. M. Sauder and F. H. Peters. It is
17 miles by trail from Milk River and is located on the N.W. % Sec. 31, Tp. 1, Rge. 18, W. 4th
Mer., about one quarter mile upstream from MacMe Brothers' ranehe buildings, and is about
five miles upstream from the junction of the north and south branches of Milk River.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post at the
left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 86.60) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00), located on the left bank, directly under the cable and five feet from
the initial point of soundings.

The stream flows in one channel and is straight for about 150 feet above the station and
for 100 feet below. The right bank is composed of sand and gravel and is liable to overflow.
The left bank is composed of clay and is high. The bed of the stream consists of gravel and
sand and is liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made during high stages by means of a cable, car, tagged
wire and stay wire, and at low stages by wading. The initial point for soundings is the face
of a cedar post planted in the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. F. Cathro.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

MILK RIVER AT MILK RIVER.

This station was established by H. C. Ritchie on May 18, 1909, and re-establislied by
F. H. Peters on July 3, 1909. It is located on the N.E. '4 Sec. 21, Tp. 2, Rge. IG, W. 4th
Mer., at the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge, one quarter of a niUe south of the town of
IVIilk River.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is securely fastened to the railway
bridge, above the centre of the stream. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.97) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the left bank, 20 feet upstream
from the bridge and 30 feet from the bank.

The stream flows in one channel at all stages and in ordinary stages is not more than 140
feet wide. The channel is almost straight for 500 feet above and below the station. The
right bank is sandy, fairly high, and not liable to overflow. The left bank is lower and
overflows during high water. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and fine gravel which
is constantly shifting.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge at high
water, and in low water a wading section about .50 feet upstream is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Dan O'Connell.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914
MILK RIVER AT WRITING-ON-STONE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established on August 2, 1909, by F. H. Peters. It is located at Writing-
on-stone R.N.W.M.P., detachment, in the S.W. % Sec. .35, Tp. 1, Rge. 13, W. 4th Mer. It is
17 miles by trail from Coutts and 25 miles from Milk River station.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post at the
right bank. The zero (elev. 86.13) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
1(X).00), located on the right bank directly under the cable and one foot north of the tower.

The river flows in one channel at aU stages. It is straight for 300 feet above and 250 feet
T^elow the station. Both banks are slightly wooded, high and not liable to overflow except
in extreme flood stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed of sand which is
constantly shifting.

Discharge measurements are made during high water by means of a cable, car, tagged
wire and stay wire, and at low stages by wading. The initial point for soundings is 50 feet
south of a post on the right bank and marked "50".

During 1913, the gauge was read by Constable A. P. White.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

MILK RIVER AT PENDANT d'oREILLE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established by F. H. Peters on August 5, 1909. It is located 300 feet
upstream from the buildings of the pohce post on the S.W. % Sec. 21, Tp. 2, Rge. 8, W. 4th
^ler., and is about 61 miles by trail from Milk River station.

The gauge, which is a plain staff gi'aduated to feet and hundredths, is at the left bank
about 80 feet downstream from the cable. The zero (elev. 82.45) is referred to a permanent
iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located directly under the cable, about five feet
from the tower on the left bank.

The river flows in one channel, which at ordinary stages is about 150 feet wide. It is
straight for about 400 feet above and 300 feet below the station. The right bank is
low covered with smaU ■ndlloAvs, and liable to overflow at high stages. The left bank is high,
almost clear and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and is
constantly changing.

Discharge measurements are made during high water by means of a cable, car, tagged
wire and staj^ ■^dre, and at low stages by wading. The initial point for soundings is the face
of a cedar post on the left bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read hy J. E. Capstick.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

MILK RIVER AT SPENCER's LOWER RANCHE.

This station was established August 7, 1909, by F. H. Peters. In August, 1913, it was
re-estabUshed as an international station. It is located south of the international boundary,
on the N.E. % Sec. 6, Tp. 37 N, Rge. 9, E. of Montana Principal Meridian, and is south of
the S.E. X Sec. 3, Tp. 1, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer., in Canada. It is 90 miles by trail from IMilk
River station, 26 miles from Pendant d'Oreille police detachment and one half mile from
Brownlee's ranche house in Montana.

The original staff gauge is located 1000 feet upstream from the international boundary.
On August 13, 1913, an automatic gauge was established 300 feet south of the boundary.
The gauge is a Gurley weight-cMven automatic water stage register and is enclosed in a
wooden shelter five feet square. A staff gauge is also placed outside the gauge house. The
zero of the gauge (elev. 82.94) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), situated at the old gauge 1300 feet upstream on the left bank.

The channel is straight for 500 feet above and 600 feet below the station. The right
bank is high and clean; the left is high and very heavily wooded. Neither is liable to over-
flow. The bed of the stream is composed of gravel and rock near the left bank and of quick-
sand and rock from the middle to the right bank,

Discharge measurements at ordinary stages are made by wading at the gauge. The
initial point for soundings is a spike driven in a 4"x 6" timber in the left bank inline with the
downstream side of the gauge house. At high stages, measurements are made by means of a
cable and car 1800 feet upstream.

During 1913, the old gauge was read by A. W. Brownlee from April 1st to September
30th. During the remainder of the year the staff gauge at the automatic gauge was read by
Frank Gallaway.

242 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914
DEER CREEK AT DICKENSON's RANCHE.

This station was established May 26, 1911, by J. E. Degnan. It is 22 miles by trail
from Coutts and is located on the S.W. % Sec. 15, Tp. 1, Rge. 12, W. 4th Mer., about 300 feet
above the dam and intake of Dickenson Bros' irrigation ditch and about one quarter of a
mile above their ranche buildings.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is located at the right
bank. The zero (elev. 92.72) is referred to the top of a post at the final point for soundings on
the right bank (assumed elev. 100.00).

The stream flows in one channel and is straight for about 30 feet above and 100 feet below
the station. The right bank is composed of a sandy loam, covered with rose bushes, and is
liable to overflow. The left bank is high and liable to overflow. The bed of the stream
is composed of gravel and sand and is about 40 feet wide. In ordinary stages the stream
averages from six feet to ten feet wide and runs along the right side of the bed. It is liable
to great change in high water but apparently remains constant in low water.

Discharge measurements are made by wading. The initial point for soundings is the face
of a stake driven in the left bank and marked "I. P."

No gauge height observations were obtained during 1913 as it was impossible to secure
an observer.

DEER CREEK CATTLE COMPANY IRRIGATION DITCH.

This station was established on April 27, 1912, by J. E. Degnan. It is located on the
S.W. '4 Sec. 36, Tp. 1, Rge. 12, W. 4th Mer. It is 200 feet below the dam and intake of
the ditch.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is located at the
left bank. The zero (elev. 93.49) is referred to a permanent bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), located on a stone on the northwest corner of the bam foundation, about 100 feet
east of the gauge.

The original bed of the stream is composed of clay, but a great amount of sand has washed
in from the creek, causing a continual change in the cross-section. The banks are not liable
to overflow, the surplus water finding its way through the two spillways at the dam.

Discharge measurements are made by wading. The initial point for sounding is a spike
driven in the downstream brace post of the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by F. W. Webster from March 29th until it went dry
on July 14th. As no discharge measurements were obtained during the season no estimate
of the discharge has been made.

PAKOWKI LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

245

PAKOWKI LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

The drainage into Pakowki Lake comes from three different directions; from the west
by way of Etzikom Coulee, from the southeast through canal and Ketchum creeks, and from
the northeast through Manyberries Creek. The lake has no outlet. The streams within
this drainage basin are very similar in their general characteristics, all ha^^ng narrow, deep
and well defined valleys, with sparse growths of brush along the bottoms, and all drainage a
sandy and verj' unproductive appearing soil. The drainage consists almost entirely of the
spring run-off, the soil being so devoid of moisture as to take care of any ordinary rainfall
without allowing any drainage into the streams, except during periods of exceptional rainfall.

Very little information has as yet been collected regarding the flow in any of the above
mentioned streams, the only one touched upon as yet being Manyberries Creek. No high
water measurements have been taken, and owing to the nature of the channel it is practically
impossible to estimate the spring mn-off.

Hooper and Huck^-ale have constructed very efficient irrigation works, and divert water
from Manyberries Creek to irrigate 2,120 acres of hay meadow. The yield of hay has been
very much increased by the use of the water.

MANYBERRIES CREEK AT HOOPER AND HUCKVALE's RANCHE.

This station was established June 7, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen on the S.E. U- Sec. 3,
Tp. 5, Rge. 6, W. 4th Mer. It was moved May 2, 1912, by J. E. Degnan to the S.W. % Sec.
27, Tp. 4, Rge. 6, W. 4th Mer. It is located about three hundred yards south of Messrs.
Hooper and Huckvale's ranche buildings and one half mile downstream from the dam and
intake of their irrigation ditch.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post driven in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the right bank. The zero of
the gauge (elev. 87.00) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00),
sunk in the right bank about fifty feet north of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about one hundred feet upstream and two hundred feet
downstream from the station. The left bank is high and will not overflow. The right bank is
low, covered with, brush, and is liable to overflow in extreme high water. The bed of the
stream is composed of sand and gravel, and shifts at high stages.

Discharge measurements are made by wading. The initial point for soundmgs is a post
driven in the right bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Sidney Hooper.

HOOPER AND HUCKVALE IRRIGATION DITCH.

This station was established May 2, 1912. by J. E. Degnan. It is located on the S. W. J4
Sec. 27, Tp. 4, Rge. 6, W. 4th Mer., about 100 yards north of ^lessrs. Hooper and Huekvale's
ranche buildings and 700 feet downstream from the dam and intake of the ditch.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post driven in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the right bank. The zero of
the gauge (elev. 93.35) is referred to a permanent bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), on the
northwest corner of the foundation of the ranche house.

The channel is straight for about 50 feet above and 30 feet below the station. The bed
of the stream is composed of clay and is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading. The initial point
for soundings is a post driven in the right bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Sidney Hooper from ISIarch 7th until ]May 31st.
As no discharge measurements were obtained during the season no estimate of the discharge
has been made.

SAGE CREEK DRAINAGE BASIX.

General Description. ^

Sage creek is a small unimportant stream which rises in township 5, range 4, west of the
4th meridian, and flows southerly, crossing the international boundary in range 2.

The stream has no definite or permanent source of supply, and derives its discharge prin-
cipalh' from the melting of snow, which accumulates in numerous coulees during the winter
montias. The period of flow therefore is in general confined to the spring months while the
melting snow is passing off. Very heavy rains sometimes cause a flow, but the drainage area
being absolutely devoid of tree growth the run-off is very rapid.

After entering the United States, Sage Creek spreads out over a large dry lake ^yhich has
no outlet. Tliis lake is about ten miles long and averages one and a half miles in width, and
Lies close to the boundary. The lake is bounded on the south by a low range of hills and at
some time has held two or three feet of water at its deepest parts. Since 1908 there has been
no water in the lake.

SAGE CREEK AT WILD HORSE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established on August 10, 1909, by F. H. Peters. It is located on the
N.E. X Sec. 9, Tp. 1, Rge. 2, W. 4th Mer., about one and a quarter miles from Wild Horse
police post. It is about 115 miles by trail from Milk River P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post in
the centre of the channel. The zero of the gauge (elev. 93.30) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. lOO.(X)), situated on the right bank 1020 feet south and 600 feet
east of % mound north of Sec. 9.

The channel is straight for 40 feet above and below the station. The banks are composed
of hard clay, and are high, but liable to overflow. The bed is composed of hard gumbo elaJ^

Discharge measurements are made with a meter by wading. The initial point for
soundings is the face of a post on the right bank, marked "LP." in red paint.

During 1913, the gauge was read by George Sherwood. As no discharge measurements
were obtained during the season no estimate of the discharge has been made.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

LODGE CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Lodge Creek, which rises in township 7, range 3, west of the fourth meridian, flows in a
southerly direction for about 12 miles, then turns southeastward, crosses the international
boundary in section 4, township 1, range 28, west of the third meridian, and eventually
empties into Milk River Chinook, JNIontana. Its principal tributary is Middle Creek, which
joins it in section 4, township 2, range 29, west of the third meridian.

Near its head the valley is very deep and narrow but it broadens out considerably lower
down, giving rise to large flats and meadows. The upper part of the drainage basin is cut
up to a great extend by deep coulees which drain into the creek. This part of the creek is
thickly covered with brush along the banks, but lower down it is totally devoid of tree
growth. The valley is rather unproductive owing to the absence of moisture but a few good
hay meadows have been developed along its course through the storage of the flood waters
and their application to the soil by irrigation. As is the case with many of the streams in
this locality the flow in Lodge Creek, is not continuous throughout the year, the creek being
dry, with the exception of pools of standing water, during the greater part of the summer
months. At flood stages the creek carries a considerable amount of water and as a result its
channel is wide and well defined throughout the whole length of its course.

Three stations have been established on the main stream, at Willow Creek Police
detachment near the international boundaiy, at Hartt's ranehe near the head of the creek
and about midway between these last two at Hester's ranehe near the fourth meridian.
Descriptions of these stations are given below.

EAST BRANCH OF LODGE CREEK AT ENGLISH'S RANCHE.

This station was established on October 7, 1911, by M. H. French. It is located at James
English's ranehe in the S.E. h Sec. 1, Tp. 7, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer., about 150 feet north of
his house. It is five miles above the junction with the main creek and about 45 miles by trail
from Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream near the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 95.35) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the left bank four
feet from the initial point for soundings and in line with the regular cross section.

The channel is straight for about 50 feet above and 25 feet below the station. Both banks
are wooded and high enough to contain the stream during aU stages. The bed is composed
of very coarse gravel and will not shift.

Discharge measurements are made with a meter by wading, a short distance above the
gauge. The initial point for soundings is a four inch stake, one foot above ground, on the left
bank.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Annie English.

Water is diverted from this stream at a point about three miles above this station, by
James English. During the irrigation season almost the total flow is diverted.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

ANDERSON DITCH NEAR THELMA.

4 GEORGE V. A. 1914

This station was established on September 23, 1911, bv W. A. Fletcher. It is located on
the S.W. K Sec. 23, Tp. 6, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer., about fifteen feet below the intake of the
ditch, and about one quarter of a mile from Robert Anderson's house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, is fixed to a post at the
left bank of the ditch. The zero of the gauge (elev. 98.64) is referred to the top of a stake
(assumed elev. 100.00). about five feet southeast of the gauge.

The channel is straight for twenty feet above and thirty feet below the gauge. Both
banks are low but are not liable to overflow. The bed is composed of clay and gravel and is
not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made by wading near the gauge. The initial point for
soundings is the inner face of the post used as a bench mark.

No water was diverted during 1913.

LODGE CREEK AT HARTt's RANCHE.

This station was established July 22, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It was originally located
just north of the road allowance between Sees. 10 and 15, Tp. 6, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer., but was
moved on June 22, 1912, by G. R. Elliott, about 800 feet downstream to the N.W. U See. 10,
Tp. 6, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer., about one mile below the junction of the east branch. It is about
45 miles by trail south of Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a support
on the upstream side of the wooden bridge near Mr. Hartt's house. The zero of the gauge
(elev. 83.33) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark, (assumed elev. 100.00), which is
located at the permanent section on the left bank, five feet south of the initial point for sound-
ings and in line with the section.

The channel is straight for about 200 feet above and 50 feet below the station. The banks
are high, steep and not liable to overflow. Both are covered with a dense growth of wiUow
brush. The bed of the stream is composed of soft clay and there is one channel at all stages.
At periods of no flow, water stands at a depth of as much as two feet at the gauge.

Discharge measurements are made during high water with a meter at the gauge. At
ordinary stages measurements are made with a meter by wading, 840 feet upstream. The
initial point for soundings is the face of a four inch post marked "LP." located on the left
bank, 300 feet north and 215 feet west of the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Ed. Hartt.

mound of See. 36, Tp. 3, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer. The zero of the gauge (elev. 87.51) is referred to
a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank immediately
back of the initial point.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 30 feet below the station. The banks are
high, brush covered, and are not liable to overflow. The bed is composed of clean gravel.

Discharge measurements are made at the gauge, at ordinary stages by wading and at
low stages by a weir. The initial point for soundings is the face of a five inch post on the
right bank marked "I.P" in knife cuts.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Miss Marcia Hester.

MIDDLE CREEK AT MCKIXNOX S RANCHE.

This station was established June 21, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located ou the
S.W. U See. 35, Tp. 5, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer., about 11 miles southwest of Battle Creek P. O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff gi-aduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a braced
post sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.47) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the left bank
about five feet from the edge, on the line of the cross section and 664 feet N. 41° 30' E of the
N.E. corner See. 27, Tp. 5, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer.

The channel is almost straight for about 150 feet above and 100 feet below the station.
The right bank is high ^\^th a gi'adual slope; the left bank is high and steep. Neither bank is
liable to overflow except in extreme flood. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and
coarse gravel.

At ordinary stages, discharge measurements are made with a weir, and at high stages
with a current meter by wading.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Angus McKinnon.

Springs just above this station keep the creek flowing all summer although a few miles
below it is dry a large portion of the season.

MIDDLE CREEK AT ROSS' RANCHE.

This station was established July 20, 1909, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located on the
S.W. 1,4 See. 30, Tp. 5 Rge; 29 W. of 3rd Mer. about four miles southwest of Battle Creek,
P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank and securely stayed. . The zero of the gauge
(elev. 3290.98) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (elev. 3297.37 irrigation surveys),
situated on the right bank.

256

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and below the station. The right bank is high,
but the left is low and liable to overflow in flood stages of the stream. The bed of the stream
is composed of sand and coarse gravel with a little vegetation at the station, and may
shift slightly during high water. There is only one channel at low stages but in extreme
flood stages, water breaks out over the left bank and forms two channels. The current
is sluggish at low stages and moderate at higher stages.

Discharge measurements are made with a weir at ordinary summer stages and with
a current meter by wading at high stages.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Maurice Ross.

The stream would be dry most of the summer at this station if it were not for the dischar-
ge of a few springs a short distance above. A part of the run-off of the drainage basin above
this station is held back by dams at Wright's and McKinnon's ranches and used for irrigation
purposes.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

MIDDLE CREEK AT HAMMOND S RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established June 13, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located at Ham-
mond's ranche, on the N.W. % Sec. 4, Tp. 2, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about seven miles above
the WUlow Creek police detachment and about one quarter of a mile above the junction of
Middle and Lodge Creeks.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to a post
sunk in the bed of the creek near the left bank. An auxiliary gauge, reading from ten to
fourteen feet, is located near the top of the left slope opposite the main gauge. The zero of
the gauge (elev. 87.60) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), on
the left bank. The "B.M." is about six inches above ground and is protected by a mound of
stones. It is also used as the initial point for soundings.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 125 feet below the station. Both banks are
high and fairly steep, free from brush and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is
sandy and may shift at high stages. The station, being located only a short distance above
the junction with Lodge Creek, may be affected by backwater from that creek during high
water stages.

Discharge measurements are made at the station by wading and at extreme low stages a
weir may be used. High water measurements are not attainable as there is no structure at
or near the station to support the engineer in taking the gaugings when the water becomes too
deep for wading. The initial point for soundings is the permanent bench mark.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. D. A. Hammond.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

LODGE CREEK AT "WILLOW CREEK POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established on August 13, 1909, by F. H. Peters. It is located on the
S.E. % Sec. 12, Tp. 1, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about 600 feet east of the house at Willow
Creek Police Detachment. It is about 75 miles by trail from Maple Creek, and about 35
miles by trail south of Battle Creek P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post
at the right bank. An auxiliary gauge, reading from ten to fourteen feet is located near the
top of the right slope opposite the main gauge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 2721 .06) is referred
to a concrete bench mark (elev. 2768.00 above mean sea level) which was set by the Inter-
national Boundary Survey, upon a hill about 500 feet west of the gauge.

The channel "is straight for 400 feet above and 300 feet below the station. The right
bank, is high, clean, grassy and will not overflow. It forms a bench part way up which is
covered at very high stages. The left bank is high and steep and wiU not overflow. The
narrow low-water channel is gravelly, the remainder is grass covered. There is one channel
at all stages.

During ordinary stages of flow, discharge measurements are made by wading, and at
very low stages a weir is used. A cable structure was erected at this station during 1913 for
usein obtaining high water measurements.

During 1913, the gauge was read by William Tudgay and M. Dunnigan.

BATTLE CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Battle Creek, rises in Tp. 8, Rge. 2, W. 4th Mer., and flows in an easterly direction for
about eight miles where it crosses the 4th meridian, then turns in a southeasterly direction
and crosses the international boundary in Sec. 3, Tp. 1, Rge. 26, W. 3rd Mer., eventually
emptying into Milk River near Chinook, Montana. As is characteristic of the streams in
this locality, the valley is narrow and deep near the source and gradually broadens out into
large flats and meadows. These large flats are first noticed in the vicinity of Battle Creek
P.O. Near the head of the stream the valley is well wooded with fair sized timber, but this
diminishes to a growth of willow brush along the banks and finally disappears altogether.

The chief tributaries of Battle Creek are Tenmile Creek, joining it in See. 4, Tp. 6,
Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., and Sixmile Coulee, joining it in Sec. 21, Tp. 6, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer.
Stations have been established on both of these streams.

There are three stations on Battle Creek, at the following places: — Nash's ranche,
Wilkes' ranche and Tenmile police detachment.

Although it will be several years before it reaches its fullest development, the irrigation
of the flats along the creek is increasing every year. This, it is expected, will result in a more
uniform flow in the creek, as a certain amount of the water diverted by the irrigation ditches
will be returned to the creek through seepage.

The principal irrigation schemes under development at the present time are Marshall
and Gaff's near Battle Creek P.O., and Richardson's, McKinnon's, Stirling's and Nash's,
near Kelvinhurst P.O.

cheeseman ditch near coulee.

This station was established on June 24, 1911, by W. A. Fletcher. It is located in the
S.W. % Sec. 12, Tp. 8, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about 50 yards from Ben Cheeseman's house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, is nailed to a post at the
left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96.00) is referred to the top of a stake (assumed
elev. 100.00), driven in the ground sLx feet southwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 40 feet above and 30 feet below the station. The bottom of
the ditch is composed of clay.

. Discharge measurements of ordianry flow are made with a weir. For high discharges
a current meter is used. The bench mark is used as the initial point for soundings.

During 1913, the ditch was used for 31 days, but not enough measurements were taken
to calculate discharge.

spangler's ditch near battle creek.

This station was established on July 10, 1911, by W. A. Fletcher. It is located on the
S.W. X Sec. 6, Tp. 7, Rge. 28, W. 3rd Mer., about one quarter mile below the intake of the
ditch. The station was moved one quarter mile upstream to its present location on June 4,
1912, by G. R. Elliott. It is about one quarter mile above J. M. Spangler's house and the
gauging station on Sixmile Coulee.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, by saw cuts, is fixed to a
braced plank at the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96.57) is referred to the top of the
final point stake (assumed elev. 100.00) on the left bank.

The channel is straight for 30 feet above and 30 feet below the station. The banks
are high, clean, grassy and are not liable to overflow. The bed is soft clay.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading. The initial point for
soundings is the face of a stake six inches high on the right bank marked "LP."

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. M. Spangler.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

SIXMILB COULEE AT SP ANGLER S RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established July 22, 1909, by H. R. Carscallen. On June 11, 1911, it
was moved five miles downstream by M. H. French, and is now located on the S.W. % See. 6,
Tp, 7. Rge. 28, W. 3rd Mer., and is 150 feet from J. M. Spangler's house. It is 34 miles
by trail southwest of Maple Creek and six miles north of Battle Creek P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96.77) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the left bank in line with
the gauging section, and 750 feet east and 290 feet south of the N.E. corner of Sec. 35, Tp. 6,
Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer.

The channel turns through about 90 degrees at the station and is straight for about
50 feet above and 100 feet below. The banks are covered mth brush which causes back
water during flood stages. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and gravel, but is not
liable to shift. There is a large pond of standing water at the station and at low stages there
is practically no current.

Discharge measurements are made at a permanent cross section, 850 feet south and
about 2000 feet downstream from the gauge, with a current meter by wading. The initial
point for soundings is a four inch post on the right bank, 56.2 feet from the final point,
which is the permanent bench mark. At high water, discharge measurements are made at the
bridge 100 feet below the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. M. Spangler.

Water is diverted about one half mile above the station by J. M. Spangler. Water was
diverted for one month and a half during 1913. The discharge of Spangler's ditch should be
added to obtain the total run-off for the station.

BATTLE CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

Lindner's ditch near battle creek.

This station was established July 26, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located on the
N.W. \{ Sec. 10, Tp. 6, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about 100 feet west of the surveyed tra« to
Maple Creek. It is about a quarter of a mile south of Battle Creek P. O. and about 500
yards below the intake of the ditch.

The gauge is a plain staff, graduated to feet and hundredths, di'iven firmly into the bed of
the ditch near the right bank about twelve feet upstream from the weir.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 150 feet below the station, where it curves
sharply to the right and enters Lindner Bros' hay meadow, and is diverted into a number of
different laterals for irrigation purposes. The bed of the ditch is composed of clay and coarse
gravel. The current is swift below the station.

Discharge measurements are made by means of a 42 inch rectangular sharp-crested weir
with complete end contractions.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Phil Lindner.

The discharge at this station must be added to that of Battle Creek at Tenmile police
detachment, when computing the total run-off for the latter station.

TENMILE CREEK AT TENMILE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was estabUshed July 21, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
S.E. Ya. Sec. 4, Tp. 6, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer. It is about 2,500 feet north of the steel highway
bridge and gauging station on Battle Creek, and about 1,000 feet north of Tenmile police
detachment.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank, 500 feet above the junction of this stream mth
Battle Creek. The zero of the gauge (elev. 95.94) is referred to the permanent iron bench
mark at the Battle Creek station (assumed elev. 100.00).

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 30 feet below the station. Both banks are
high, clean, grassy, and are not liable to overflow. The bed is composed of sand and coarse
gravel. The current is swift above and below but is sluggish at the gauge.

Discharge measurements are made above the gauge at ordinary stages by a weir, and
at high stages with a meter by wading. The initial point for soundings is a four inch stake
with "I.P" carved on the face, on the left bank, 70 feet upstream from the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by W. G. Paterson.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

BATTLE CREEK AT TENMILE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established June 3, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located below the
mouth of Tenmile Creek, at the highway bridge on the surveyed trail from Maple Creek to
Tenmile, and about 400 yards from the Tenmile police detachment. It is practically in the
centre of the X.E. % Sec. 33, Tp. 5, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about two miles south oi Battle
Creek Post Office and 55 miles south of Maple Creek. The bridge is a steel struetutre of the
pony truss type, consisting of one 80 foot span, supported by two timber, rock-filled piers and
ha\'ing a twenty foot approach at each end of the bridge. There is only one channel at all
ordinary stages of the stream, but owing to the presence of the two piers supporting the truss
there are three channels at times of floods.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is located about the centre of the steel
truss and is securely fastened to the guard-rail on the downstream side of the bridge. The
length of the chain from the bottom of the weight to the marker is 19.11 feet. The zero of the
gauge(elev. S6.S4) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) at the
northeast corner of the bridge. The bench mark stands about tliree inches above ground and
is well protected by rock. It is nine feet southwest of road diversion pin "R.5" and thirty
feet northeast of the north end of the bridge pier.

The channel is straight for 500 feet above and 300 feet below the station. Both banks are
high and not liable to overflow except in extreme floods, when the water breaks over the
right bank some distance above the station and flows around the bridge. The right bank is
free of brush for some distance above and below the station; the left bank is sparsely covered
with ^^illows near the station. The bed of the stream is sandy and may shift somewhat in
in high stages of the stream. The current is very sluggish, and at very low stages vegetation
appears in the bed of the stream at the station. During the summer months there is a heavy
growth of weeds in the bottom of the channel which retards the water and alters conditions
at the station.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the inner face of the right abutment. Low-water measurements are
made by wading near the bridge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by W. G. Paterson.

MARSHALL AND GAFF DITCH NEAR TENMILE POLICE DETACHMENT.

This station was established on July 11, 1911, by W. A. Fletcher. It is located in the
N. E. ^ See. 33, Tp. 5, Rge. 29, W. 3rd Mer., about one half mile below the regular station,
upon Battle Creek near Tenmile poUce detachment.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated in feet and inches, is nailed to a post sunk in
the ditch near the right bank, 250 feet below the headgate. The zero of the gauge is referred
to the top of a three inch stake on the right bank near the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 40 feet below the station. The bed is
muddy and covered with weeds.

Aleasurements are made at the station with a current meter by wading. The initial
point for soundings is the bench mark.

Not sufficient daih" gauge height records were received during 1913 to accurately com-
pute the discharge. Records at a point three miles downstream are given under Gaff ditch.

S.W. 'A Sec. 25, Tp. 5, Rge. 29, West of the 3rd Mer., about half a mile from Mr. Gaff's
house.

The gauge, which is a plain board divided into feet and inches, is nailed to a post at
right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 96.90) is referred to the top of a stake driven in the
the ground three feet southwest of the gauge (assumed elev. 100.00).

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 300 feet below the station. The bottom of
the ditch is composed of a sandy loam.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading. The initial point
for soundings is the bench mark stake. ■

During 1913, the gauge was read by J. A. Gaff.

BATTLE CREEK AT WILKES RANCHE.

This station was established July 5, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen. On May 29, 1912, it was
moved seven miles downstream by G. R. EUiott. It is located on the N.W. % Sec. 33, Tp. 5,
Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer., and is twelve miles straight east of Tenmile police detachment and
about ten miles north of Kehanhurst Post Office.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths is nailed to a well-
braced post sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank, and is 120 feet from Wilkes' house.
The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.01) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00), located on the left bank 750 feet downstream from the gauge.

The channel curves at the gauge. Both banks are fairly high, sandy and not liable to
overflow. The bed is composed of clean sand and is somewhat shifting.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading. The initial point for
soundings is a five inch stake marked "I. P." in red paint, located on the left bank, 1700 feet
downstream from the gauge. The final point, 171 feet distant, is 654 feet north and 255 feet
east of the quarter mound east of Sec 32, Tp. 5, Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Bertha Wilkes.

Water was diverted in 1913 during June by Marshall and Gaff's ditch, twenty miles
above this station.

GILCHRIST UROTHEKS DITCH NEAR KELVIXHURST.

This station was established on Oetober 10, 1911, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located on the
S.W. % See 11, Tp 5, Rro 27, W. 3r(l Mer., at the intake to the ditcli.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, is nailed to the right side
of a flume at a point 4.5 feet from the; intake gate. The zero of the gauge (elev. 9G.92) is
referred to the top of a post )assumed elev lOO.OO) at the lower end of the flume.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

Discharge measurements are made -nnth a current meter. The initial point for soundings
is the right side of the flume at the gauge. Low discharges are measured with a weir below the
flume.

Water was diverted for eight days during June after the ditch had been repaired, to
inspect the grades, but discharge measurements were not obtained

STIRLING AND NASH DITCH NEAR KELVINHURST.

This station was established on July 11, 1911, by F. M. French. It is located on the
S.E. % Sec. 22, Tp. 3, Rge 27, W 3rd Mer., and is about one mile from the headgate of the
ditch and 1,000 feet east of Stirling Brothers' house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
and braced to a small bridge neaf the centre of the ditch. The zero of the gauge (elev. 94.81)
is referred to the top of a stake (assumed elev. 100.00), on the right bank.

The ditch is straight for 1,000 feet above and 600 feet below the gauge. The cross-
section is uniform and the bed and banks of the ditch are in good condition at this point.

At ordinary stages, discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading
near the gauge, but during low water a; weir is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Robert Stirling.

Sufficient discharge measurements have not been made to determine accurately the dis-
charge for 1913. The ditch was in used for 21 days from June 28th to July 19th.

BATTLE CREEK AT NASH S RANCHE.

This station was established May 11, 1910, by N. M. Sutherland It is located on the
N.E. \{ Sec. 3, Tp. 3, Rge 27, W. 3rd Mer., and is 270 feet west of E. R. Nash's house.
It is about 70 miles by trail from Maple Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero (elev. 90.23) is referred to a perma-
nent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) on the left bank, seven feet east of the initial
point of soundings, and in the line of the cross-section. The bench mark is also 1903 feet
S. 81"., 28 W. from the N. E. cor.. Sec. 3, Tp. 3, Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer. It is about eight
inches above ground and is protected by a mound of rock.

The stream flows in one channel 45 feet wide at ordinary stages. The channel is straight
for 250 feet above and 300 feet below the station. The right bank is solid clay, high and not
liable to overflow. The left bank is also of clay, but is low, and liable to overflow during
high stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and gravel and may
shift in high stages of the stream.

Discharge measurements are made at ordinary stages with a current meter by wading.
At high stages the stream cannot be waded and the discharge is computed from slope measu-
rements. The initial point for soundings is the face of a five inch post on the left bank,
27 feet upstream from the gauge and marked "I. P." in red paint.

During 1913, the gauge was read by E. R. Nash.

FRENCHMAN RIVER DRAIXAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Frenchman River drains the greater portion of southwestern Saskatchewan. It rises in
Cypress Lake in Tp.G, Rge. 26, W- 3rd Mer., and follows a southeasterly course for about ir)0
males, crossing into the United States in Range 10, West of the Third Meridian. It eventually
finds its way into Milk River near Saco, Montana, and therefore forms a part of the general
drainage basin of the jMissouri.

Cypress Lake is on the southern slope of Cypress Hills at an elevation of about 3155 feet
above sea level. It occupies what is probably a portion of an abandoned water course or chan-
nel of an ancient river, which joined Battle Creek to the Frenchman River. The water of the
lake is fresh and is suppUed by a number of coulees and small streams which rise in the hills to
the north. The largest of these are Oxarart and Sucker Creeks, both of which have a
small continuous flow.

During dry years Cypress Lake does not overflow and the whole discharge of the French-
man River is derived from Belanger, Davis and Fairwell Creeks and the north branch. From
Township G, Range 23, West of the Third Meridian, where the north branch joins the main
stream, there is no appreciable supply to the river while in Canada. Mule Creek which
joins the river in Township 5, Range 17, West of the Third Meridian, and Snake Creek in
Township 3, Range 13, West of the Third Meridian, however, have a small flow.

The country surrounding Cypress Lake is of rolling prairie much broken by coulees. In
many of these there is considerable tree growth but for the most part the country is devoid
of all vegetation other than grasses. All the streams in the upper section of the drainage ba-
sin, with the exception of the north branch, rise on the plateau at the top of the lulls. Flow-
ing southward they break through deep well wooded gorges before reaching the lower flats
along the river. The north branch, however, is in a deep valley throughout its entire length.
Its feeders, like the western tributaries of the main stream, cut through from the bench to
the valley in deep well wooded coulees. Below the mouth of the north brant^h there is little
tree growth. Here and there along the river may be found small growtlis of shrubs and
maple while up on the hillsides in some of the coulees there are small clumps of poplar
covering an acre or so. Most of these coulees are rapidly becoming cleared by the s(>ttlers
who are taking up the })ench lands above the river valley. The benches are well covered with
grasses but the hills and sides of the valley are almost devoid of v(>getation. In the flats
along the river, e.xcept, where irrigated, the chief vegetation consists of sagfj-brush and cactus.

When the Frenchman River leaves the lake, it flows through a wide flat valley as far as
mouth of Fairwell Creek. Most of this land is under proposed or constructed irrigation ditches,
the covering an area of a])out :^93 acres. Below this point the valley becomes more; broken
and narrows considerably while the side hills become higher. Small portions of this bottom will
no doubt be brought under irrigation, but as yet little has been done in that direction.

Below the junction of the north branch the valley becomes rough and rugged, the sides
being cut with buttes and deep coulees. Here numerous outcropi)ings of lignite may be seen
and also a deep seam of Ught colored clay and sand. This seam, which has been bleached

almost a pure white shows at many points along the river's entire course and is one of the
most conspicuous objects in this region. From its color and nature the river receives its
local name of the "Whitemud".

At East End, some miles lower down, the valley again widens out into flats. Here is
located the largest irrigation project in the Cypress Hills district. Messrs. Strong and Day
have a large dam in the river and a system of ditches and storage reservoirs, by which they
irrigate 2,581 acres. Directly above this project there are two smaller schemes covering
200 acres. Just below, Messrs. Morrison Brothers have a dam and ditch which ^\•ill irrigate
1,595 acres. Their ditch is carried across the river and continued by Messrs. Duncan and
Watson who irrigate 935 acres more.

Below the East End flat none of the flats, which occur at various points along the river,
are irrigated as yet. A short distance below the mouth of Snake Creek, the river enters
badlands which continue into the United States.

The mean annual rainfall of this basin is not well established, but it is estimated that
it would range from 12 to 16 inches, most of which falls in May, June and July. From Novem-
ber to April, the streams are frozen over and usually there is an abundant snowfall.

OXARART CREEK AT WYLIe's RANCHE.

This station was established June 15, 1909 by H. R. Carscallen. It is located on the
N.E Vi, Sec. 20, Tp. 6, Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer., three miles above the point where the creek flows
into Cypress Lake, and thirty-five miles south of Maple Creek. It is above the intake of
Joseph Wylie's irrigation ditch.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a
braced post sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev.
3199.03) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (elev. 3203.75 above mean sea level
irrigation surveys), situated on the right bank, four feet from the final point stake and in line
with the cross section.

The channel is straight for ten feet upstream, at which point four small courses converge.
It is straight for twenty feet downstream and then is turned almost at right angles by Mr.
Wylie's dam. Both banks are low and sodded and are liable to overflow at very high stages.
The bed is coarse gravel and shifts during floods. During high stages the creek has several
channels. On account of the porous gravel bed there is considerable seepage near the gauge.

Discharge measurements are made during high stages at the gauge with a current meter
by wading. The initial point for soundings is a square stake, driven close to the ground on the
left bank and marked "I. P.". During ordinary stages measurements are made seventj' five
feet downstream from the gauge, where the current is swift.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Rachel Wylie.

SUCKER CREEK .\T WHITCOMB AND ZEIGLER S RANCHE.

This station was established May 26, 1909, by 11. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
N.W. }4 Sec. 24, Tp. 6, Rgo. 2(), W. 3rd Mer., about five miles south of Belanger post office
and about thirty-two miles south of Maple Creek.

The gauge, whicli is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a verti-
cal post sunk in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the left bank. The zero of the
gauge (elev. 3*191. 11) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (elev. 3196.25 feet above

of the X.E. corner Sec. 23, Tp. 6. Rge. 26, W. 3rd :SIer.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and 25 feet below the station. Both banks are
low, sparsely covered with brush, and will overflow at high stages. The bed of the stream is
composed of sand and coarse gravel. The current is sluggish at the station but swift immedia-
tely below.

Discharge measurements are made with a meter at or near the gauge by wading and at
very low stages a weir is used. It is difficult to make accurate gaugings during high water,
as the water overflows the banks.

During 1913, the gauge was read by ]Mrs. P. A. Zeigler.

LONEPINE CREEK AT HEWITT S RANCHE.

This station was established July 17, 1909, by H. R. CarscaUen. It is located on the
N.W. U Sec. 27, Tp. 7, Rge. 26, W. of 3rd Mer., about two miles west of the surveyed trail
from Belanger post office to Maple Creek, and about four miles west of Belanger.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank and securely stayed in place. The
zero of the gauge (elev. 93.35) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), located on the right bank fifty feet west of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 35 feet above and 45 foot below the station. The right
bank is high and not liable to overflow; the left is comparatively low and will overflow at high
stages of the stream. The surface of the ground on the left bank is very rough and broken.
The bed of the stream is composed of sand and coarse gravel. The current is smooth and
swift.

On June 27, 1913, a permanent 15" weir was placed on this creek along with a gauge,
which was read during the remainder of the season. The elevation of the crest of the weir
and zero of the gauge rod is 96.34, referred to the permanent iron bench mark at the old
station.

During 1913, the gauge was read by S. W. Hewitt.

This station is below ditches constructed by A. P. McDonald and S. W. Hewitt and in the
case of water being used in these ditches the records at the gauge do not give the complete
discharge of the creek.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

BELANGER CREEK AT GARRISON S RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. I9I4

This station was established June 12, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
S.W. % Sec. 18, Tp. 7, Rge. 25, W. 3rd Mer., one hundred and fifty yards west of Garrison's
ranche (Belanger P.O.), and about twenty seven miles south of Maple Creek.

This station was abandoned in June 1913 on account of the difficulty of securing a reliable
observer. The station at Oakes' ranche 5K miles downstream is maintained instead.

BELANGER CREEK AT OAKES' RANCHE.

This station was established on March 31, 1912, by M. H. French. It is located on the
S.W. X Sec. 30 Tp. 6, Rge. 25, W. 3rd Mer., at Oakes' ranche and about 35 miles south of the
town of Maple Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a verti-
cal post sunk in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the left bank. The zero of the
gauge (3164.10) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (elev. 3168.57 feet above mean
sea level. Irrigation Surveys) and located 80' S.W. of the rod.

The channel is straight for about 50 feet above and below the gauge. The left bank is
heavily wooded. Both banks are low and liable to overflow during floods. The bed of the
stream is composed of sand and gravel and is liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made by wading at a graded cross section about 25' above
the gauge; the initial point for soundings is a wiUow stake, driven in the right bank and
marked "LP".

During 1913 the gauge was read by E. C. R. Harris.

Practically no water was diverted from this creek during 1913.

DAVIS CREEK AT DRtJRY S RAXCHE.

This station was established ]VIav 24, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
N.E. 'A Sec. 29, Tp. 6, Rge. 25, W. 3rd ISIer., about five miles southeast of Belanger P.O., and
about one-half mile from the mouth of the creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a verti-
cal post sunk in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the right bank. The zero of the
gauge (elev. 317G.79) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (elev. 3183.06 feet above
mean sea level, Irrigation Surveys) located about 25 feet west of the gauge.

FRENCHMAN RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

293

The channel is straight for 150 feet above and 200 feet below the station. The right bank
is comparatively high and will not overflow except in cases of extreme flood; the left bank is
low and wUl overflow at high-water stages of the stream. Both banks are covered with brush.
The bed of the stream is composed of sand and coarse gravel and there may be a slight sub-
surface flow at this point. The current is swift.

Discharge measurements are made at or near the gauge by wading. Owing to the left
bank being low, high-water measurements cannot be made. Considerable annoyance is
experienced by the construction of dams below the gauge by beavers.

During 1913, the gauge was read by E. C. R. Harris.

There are one or two proposed irrigation schemes on the head-waters of this stream, but
as yet there has been no diversion of water.

FAIRWELL creek AT DRURY S RANCHE.

This station was established June 10, 1909, by II. R. Carseallen. It is located about
eleven miles southeast of Belanger P.O., at Drury's ranche, on the N.W. V Sec. 30, Tp. 6,
Rge. 24, W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge, whicli is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a verti-
cal post sunk in the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 95.13) is referred to a permanent
iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located about 20 feet southeast of the gauge. An
auxiliary rod was located on this creek to enable gauge heights to be made during extreme
high water. The zero of the auxiliary' rod has the same elevation as the main rod and is
referred to the same bench mark.

The channel is straight for 75 feet upstream, but curves slightly to the right for 50 feet
downstream. Both banks are comparatively low and -wall overflow at high stages of the
stream. The banks are covered with brush above and below the station. The bed of the
stream is composed of sand and coarse gravel. The current is sluggish at the station, but is
swift a short distance below.

Discharge measurements are made by wading, a short distance below the gauge. Owing
to the low banks, high water measurements cannot be made. The initial point for soundings
is a square stake driven close to the ground at the left bank and marked "LP."

During 1913, the gauge was read by Ivan A. F. Harris.

There are a number of proposed irrigation schemes which will take their supply from this
stream at points above the gauging station. Armstrong and Sons were the only ones to divert
water during the season of 1913.

FRENCHMAX river at GORDON S RAXCHE.

This station was established July 10, 1912, by G. H. Whyte. It is situated about three
miles below the mouthof Fairwell Creek and about si.x miles above the mouth of the North
Branch of Frenchman River. It is located on the N.W. % Sec. 16, Tp. 6, Rge. 24, W. 3rd
Mer.

The gauge, which is of the chain type, is spiked horizontally to two 8" by 8" posts sunk
in the right bank and situated about 60 feet upstream from the cable. The zero of the gauge

FREXCHMAX RIVER DRAIXAGE BASIX

(elev. 85.69) is refeiTed to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed olev. 100.00), located on
the right bank 150 feet west of the gauge. The length of chain from the marker to the
bottom of the weight is 1G.9S feet.

The river flows in one channel at all stages, which is straight for about 100 feet above and
below the station. Both banks are slightly wooded, high and not liable to overflow except
in extreme flood stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed of clay and gravel
and is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made during high water by means of a cable, ear, tagged
wire, and staj' -^dre. Beaver dams above and below the station affect discharge measurements
when the stream is not in flood. During low water, discharge measurements are made by
wading at a point about 200 yards below the gauge.

The gauge was read in 1913 by Capt. R. X. S. Gordon.

AT EAST

END.

This station was established on May 1, 1911, bv G. H. Whj'te. It is located on the
N.E. ^ Sec. 26, Tp. 7, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer., at East End post office.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a verti-
cal post sunk in the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.09) is referred to a permanent
iron bench mark (assumed elev. lOO.OO), located on the left bank about 30 feet downstream
from the gauge. The gauge is situated 1324 feet N. 46° 30' W. of the E. j4 corner of Sec.
26, Tp. 7, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer.

The channel of the stream is straight for about 40 feet above and 75 feet below the sta-
tion. The right bank is low and liable to overflow, but the left is high and not liable to
overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand, which has a small amount of vegetation
and shifts slightly.

Discharge measurements are made during high water stages by wading at the gauge.
The initial point for soundings is a stake on the left bank. During 1913 a permanent weir was
established on this stream about 25' above the gauge rod. The elevation of the crest and
the zero of the rod is 92.98, referred to the permanent iron bench mark at the old station
(assumed elev. 100.00).

During 1913, the gauge was read by B. E. Rose post master at East End.

B. E. Rose has an irrigation ditch which diverts water from Rose Lake, the source
of Rose Creek. No water was diverted by this ditch during 1913.

X.E. % Sec. 16, Tp. 7, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer., about two and one-half miles from East End
post office, and about fortj'-five miles southeast of IVIaple Creek by trail.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed yertieally
at the right bank about one mile downstream from the intake of Frank Cross' irrigation
ditch, and one hundred yards below his house. The zero of the gauge (elev. 90.27) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated 260 feet northeast of the
gauge and 1315 feet S. 5° 36' W. from the N.E. corner of Sec. 16, Tp. 7, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer.

The channel is straight for about 100 feet above and 400 feet below the station. Both
banks are fairly high, but are Hable to overflow dm-ing floods. The bed of the stream is sandy
and jnay shift at high stages. The current is smooth and fairly swift.

Discharge measurements are made at or near the gauge by wading. The initial point for
soundings is a aquare hardwood plug, driven into the ground on the right bank of the stream
and marked "B.M." with white paint.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Frank Cross.

Irrigation ditches owned by F. Cross, H. Cross and W. F. McNicol take their supply
from this stream above the gauging station; F. Cross and H. Cross were the only ones to divert
water during 1913.

FRENCHMAN RIVER AT PHILLIPS RANCHE.

This station was established July 9, 1912, by G. H. Whyte. It is located on Phillips'
Ranche, in the N.E. % Sec. 23, Tp. 6, Rge. 23, W. 3rd Mer. It is 13 miles by trail from
East End post office.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fi.xed to a post at
the left bank about 900 feet upstream from the station. The zero (elev. 90.02) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the left bank and about 2.5 feet
N.E. of the gauge.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The river flows in one channel at all stages. It is straight for 300 feet above and 500 feet
below the station. Both banks are slightly wooded, high and not liable to overflow. The bed
of the stream is composed of sand and gravel.

^ Discharge measurements are made during high water by means of a cable ear, tagged
wire and stay wire, and at low stages by wading. The initial point for soundings is
the anchorage on the left bank, and marked I. P. 0+00.

During 1913 the gauge was read by A. A. Phillips.

;u near e

This station was established July 31, 1908, by F. T. Fletcher. On April 17, 1911 it was
moved upstream by G. II. Whyte. It is located on the N.E. ^4- Sec. 25, Tp. 6, Rge. 22, \V. 3rd
Mer., and is three quarters of a mile above the old station and about half a mile below the
headgate of the ditch.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post at the
right bank of the ditch. It is referred to bench marks as follows: — (1) A spike on the initial
post, which is about si.x inches above ground, on the left bank of the ditch; elevation 5.49 t'cfi

306

above the datum of the gauge. (2) The top of a plug, about foui- inches above ground, on the
top of the right bank and about 50 feet downstream from the gauge; elevation 7.52 feet above
the datum of the gauge.

The ditch is straight for about 250 feet above and 100 feet below the station. The
current is rather sluggish and, during a greater part of the season, vegetation in the ditch
causes considerable trouble in making discharge measurements.

Discharge measurements are made at the rod by wading, or from the old bridge station;
(for description see 1910 report). The initial point for soundings at the station is a plug on the
left bank, 23 feet from the rod.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Miss M. E. H. Robertson.

FRENCHMAN RIVER AT STRONG AND DAY S RANCHE.

This Station was established July 31, 1908, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located at Strong and
Day's highway bridge on the N.E. '4 Sec. 31, Tp. 6, Rge. 21 W. 3rd Mer., and is about
eight miles south of East End post ofBce and a mile above the East End police detachnient.

The gauge, which is of the standard chain type, is fixed to the floor of the east end ot the
upstream side of the bridge. The length of chain from the marker to the bottom ot the
weight is 16.80 feet. The zero of the gauge (elev. 8.5.54) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated 240 feet N. 11° E. from the gauge. This gauge
reads one foot higher than the staff gauge used during previous years. t. , i, i

The channel is straight for 300 feet above and 600 feet below the station. Both banks
are high and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and gravel.
The current is sluggish.

Discharge measurements are made from the lower side of the bridge diu-mg high water
stages, and at a wading section a short distance upstream during low water stages. The
initial point for soundings is the inner face of the left abutment. The bridge is not quite at
right angles to the direction of the current.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Miss Robertson until August 22nd, after which no
observer could be obtained. ,

Three miles above the station are the dam and headgates of Messrs. Strong and Day s
ditch and hence the discharge of the stream at the station does not mclude that of the ditch
and the latter must be added in order to obtain the total flow of the Frenchman River.

MORRISOX BROTHERS DITCH NEAR EAST END.

This station was established August 22, 1911, by G. R. Elliott. It is located on the
S.W. 14 Sec. 26, Tp. 6, Rge. 21, W. 3rd jMer., one half mUe below the intake of the ditch at
the Frenchman River.

The gauge is a plain staff 3" X 1", graduated to feet and inches, and is on the right side
of the ditch. The zero of the gauge (elev. 97.36) is referred to the top of a rock (assumed
elev. 100.00) 300 feet downstream on the right bank, marked "B.M." with red paint.

The station is at a uniform cross-section of the ditch, which is seven feet wide at the
bottom with side slopes of 4 to 1.

During 1913 the gauge was read by A. A. Morrison.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Swifteurrent Creek rises in the eastern slope of the Cypress hills, follows a north-easterly
coiu'se for 75 miles and then a northerly one for about 25 miles and finally empties into the
South Saskatchewan River in Tp. 20, Rge. 13, W. 3rd Mer.

The only important tributary is Bone Creek, which rises in the Cypress hiUs and joins
the Swifteurrent in Tp. 10, Rge. 19, W. 3rd Mer.

The main stream flows through a valley, two to three hundred feet deep and a mile wide,
to within a few miles of its mouth, where it enters a sand-stone gorge, about five hundred
feet deep.

The bench land above the creek is of rolling prairie broken by innumerable coulees.
The soil is a sandy loam. There is very little tree growth along the stream.

The mean annual rainfall at the twon of Swift Current is about 15 inches. This increases
slightly at the stream's headwaters. The greatest precipitation occurs during the months of
May, June, and July. From November to April the stream is frozen over.

There are a number of small irrigation ditches in this drainage basin, and the town
of Swift Current and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company take water for domestic and
industrial purposes from the creek.

POLLOCK DITCH NEAR SOUTH FORK.

This station was established August 10, 1911, by G. R. Elliott on the irrigation ditch
of D. Pollock, which diverts water from Swiftcurrent creek. It is located on the N.W. %
Sec. 22, Tp. 7, Rge. 21, W. 3rd :Sler.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, is situated at the left side
of the ditch, 20 feet from the intake. The zero (elev. 91.96) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located at the gauging station on Swdftcurrent Creek,
which is three quarters of a mile below the intake of the ditch.

The station is at a uniform section of the ditch, which is one and a half feet wide at the
bottom and has side slopes of one to one and two to one.

During 1913, the gauge was read by D. Pollock.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK AT POLLOCK S RANCHE.

This station was established May 18, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
S.W. % Sec. 22, Tp. 7, Rge. 21, W. 3rd Mer., about 4 miles southwest of Southfork P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank and firmlj^ stayed. The zero of the
gauge (elev. 88.76) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00),
situated 138 feet N. 30° E. of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and 15 feet below the station. Both banks are
high and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and gravel.
The current is moderate at ordinary stages, but sluggish at very low stages of the stream.

Discharge measurements are made at or near the gauge by wading at ordinary' stages,
and at very low stages a weir is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read by D. Pollock.

Mr. D. Pollock diverts water from the creek into an irrigation ditch about one half mile
above the gauge; therefore when he is using water in his ditch the gauge does not record the
total flow of the creek.

JOXES' CREEK .\T STEARn's RANCHE.

This station was established on Mav 15, 1912, bv J. S. Wright. It is located on S. E. %
See. 20, Tp. 8. Rge. 20, W. 3rd Mer. It is about 39 miles south of Gull Lake.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post sunk in the bed of the stream and securely stayed to the left bank. The zero of the
gauge (elev. 93.14) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00),
located on the right bank about 40 feet west of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and 25 feet below the station. The right bank
is high and not liable to overflow. The left bank is low and liable to overflow. The banks
are free from brush e.xcept for a little undergrowth on the left bank. The bed of the stream is
composed of soft clay Avith sand underneath.

Discharge measurements are generally made by wading, a short distance downstream
from the gauge, but at very low stages a weir is used. The initial point for soundings is a
stake driven close to the ground on tlie right bank and marked "LP".

During 1913 the gauge was read by Chas. E. Stearns.

SWIFTCURKENT CREEK AT SINCLAIR'S RANCHE. (uPPER STATION.)

This station was established June 15, 1910, by R. G. Swan. It is located on the S.E. ^i
Sec. 18, Tp. 10, Rge. 19, W. 3rd Mer., about 150 feet upstream from the mouth of Bone
Creek, and about 1200 feet above the lower station.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fi.xed to a post
at the right bank. The zero (elev. 87.86) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00), located 300 feet S. 64.5o W. of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 250 feet above and 150 feet below the station. Both
banks are fairly high and covered with a growth of brush. Neither bank will overflow. The
bed of the stream is composed of sand which will shift.

Discharge measurements are made at the station by wading. The initial point for
soundings is a plug on the left bank, about four inches above ground and 45 feet from the
gauge. During high stages the gauge heights at this station are aii'ected by backwater from
Bone Creek.

Dm-ing 1913 the gauge was read bj' Mrs. K. Sinclair.

BONE CREEK AT LEWIS RANCHE.

This station was established 3\x\y 2, 190S, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located at the highway
bridge on the N.W. % Sec. 34, Tp. S, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer. It is on the surveyed trail from
Sk-uU Creek P.O. to East End P.O., and is about fifteen miles south of Skull Creek P.O. by
trail. The bridge is a small wooden structure, built in the form of a culvert with a rectangular
cross-section.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to the left abutment on the upstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge(elev. 95.02) is

referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), sunk in the right bank,
about 62 feet southwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above the station ; below the station it curves gradually
to the left after emerging from the downstream side of the bridge. The right bank is high and
will not overflow; the left bank is comparatively low, but no indication of the water overflow-
ing the bank can be found. Both banks are free from brush at the station. The bed of the
stream is sandy mth some large stones scattered along the cross-section. The current is
moderate, becoming very swdft below the station.

At high stages discharge measurements are made from the upstream side of the bridge.
The initial point for soundings is the inner face of the left abutment. Low-water measure-
ments are made near the station by wading.

Diu-ing 1913 the gauge was read by C. L. Lewis.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK AT SINCLAIR'S R.\NCHE. (LOWER STATION.)

This station was established on May 27, 1910, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
S.W. % See. 17, Tp. 10, Rge. 19, W. 3rd Mer., at the highway bridge on the surveyed trail
from East End to Gull Lake, and just below the mouth of Bone Creek.

The gauge is of the standard chain type. The bo.x is nailed securely to the downstream
side of the floor of the bridge. The length of chain from bottom of weight to marker is
20.65 feet. The zero (elev. 85.73) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed
elev. 100.00), located on the right bank 600 feet upstream from the bridge.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN
SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

321

The channel is straight for 75 feet above and 20 feet below the station. The left bank
has a gradual slope, is high and well wooded. The right bank rises abruptly; it is also high
and well wooded. The stream bed is sandy in character, free from vegetation and liable
to shift at high water. The current at this point is sluggish.

Discharge measurements are made from the do-mistream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the inner face of the left abutment. Low water measurements are made
by wading at a point about 100 feet upstream.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. K. Sinclair.

swiftcurrent creek near swift current.

This station was established on May 5, 1913, by 0. H. Hoover, to obtain the flow of the
creek above the intake of the town of Swift Current's water supply. It is located on the
N. W. H Sec. IS, Tp. 15 Rge. 13, W. 3rd Mer., and about 2 miles from the centre of the
town of Sv.ift Current.

The gaug^e, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is located on the
right bank. The zero (elev. 87.20) is referred to a bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) on a
rock about 20 feet from the gauge.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

323

The ehannel is straight for 1200 feet above and 150 feet below the station. The right
bank is high; the left is low but not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is of sand and
gravel, wMle the current is sluggish; there is no growth of vegetation in the channel.

Discharge measurements are made at the gauge with a current meter by wading. There
is a bridge a short distance downstream, from which measurements can be made at high
water and flood periods.

The gauge was read during 1913 by Mrs. C. E. Downes and Stanley Tite.

The reservoir dam of the town of Swift Current was constructed a short distance above
the gauge and therefore this station •will not in future include the full discharge of the stream.

SWIFTCURRENT CREEK AT SWIFT CURRENT.

This station was established April 30, 1910, bj^ H. R. Carscallen. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the north side of the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks in the town of
Swift Current on S.W. H See. 30, Tp. 15, Rge. 13, W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge is a plain staff, graduated to feet and hundredths, spiked vertically to the
inside face of the left abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 85.71) is referred to
a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated eight feet east of the south
approach of the bridge.

The channel curves slightly, but is almost straight for about 300 feet above the station
and is straight for about 300 feet below. The right bank is rather low with a gradual slope ; the
left bank is high. Both banks are clear of brush and undergrowth and are not liable to
overflow. The bed of the stream is sandy with a few large stones and is liable to shift at high
stages. Weeds in the cross-section make it difficult to make discharge measurements during
the low stages of the stream, when the current is sluggish.

During ordinaiy stages, discharge measurements are mad.e from the downstream side of
the bridge, but at low stages they are made by wading near the bridge. The initial point for
soundings is the inner face of the row of piles at end of the south approach.

During 1913, the gauge was read by C. E. Wesley, who Uves wathin 200 yards of the
bridge.

ANTELOPE LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.
General Description.

Antelope Lake is a small body of saline water, six miles long and from one to one and a
half miles vnde, situated at an elevation of 2,300 feet above sea level. It lies in a deep depres-
sion north of the main line of the Canadian Pacifie Railway, in Tp. 15, Rge. 18, W. 3rd Mer.,
and drains an area of about 3.50 square miles.

The lake receives its supply from Bridge Creek, which rises in the Cypress Hills. The
altitude of the source of this creek is 2,800 feet and it has an average fall of fifteen feet per

The vallev traversed by Bridge Creek is narrow and quite shallow, rarely exceeding 100
feet in depth. The land lying along the creek bottom is very flat and liable to become inunda-
ted during periods of flood. The bench land is rolling prairie, cut up by innumerable coulees
which drain the suiTounding country into the main valley.

The mean annual raiiifall amounts to about fourteen inches, most of which occurs
during May, June and July. The creek has only a small flow., and is dry along most of its
course for several months during the year.

A number of imgation schemes receive their supply from this basin. The largest of these
are Moorhead and Fearon's works, which divert water from Bridge Creek in Sec. 33, Tp. 10,
Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer.

BRIDGE CREEK AT RAYMOND'S RANCHE.

This station was estabUshed April 8, 1911, by G. H. Whyte. It is located on the S. E. X
Sec. 33, Tp. 10, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer., and about 400 yards upstream from the headgate of
Fearon'and Moorhead's ditch and some two miles from SlaiU Creek P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is placed at the left
side of the channel. The zero of the gauge (elev. 89.42) is referred to a permanent iron bench
mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the left bank about 50 feet southwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 30 feet above and below the station. The right bank is
low and covered with small shrubs, while the left is high and clear of tree growth. The bed
of the stream is sandy and shifts. The current is moderate at all stages.

Discharge measurements ai-e made at the gauge by wading, or during high stages at the
government bridge three miles below. During most of the season, however, measurements
are made with a weir at or near the gauge. The initial point for soundings is a plug driven
close to the ground on the left bank, and a tagged ware is strung across the stream to mark
the regular section.

During 1912 the gauge was read by ]Mrs, Charles Raymond.

BRIDGE CREEK NEAR SKULL CREEK POST OFFICE.

This station was established July 29, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located at the
highway bridge on the surveyed trail running eastward from Maple Creek, on the N. E. % Sec.
11, Tp. 11, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer. It is about four miles from Skull Creek P.O., and 27
miles from ^Nlaple Creek. . .

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to the centre pile on the downstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 87.51)
is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the right bank
about 100 feet southeast of the gauge. . .r. , i i

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 30 feet below the station. Both banks
are high and not liable to overflow. The stream is entu-ely devoid of tree growth. The bed of
the creek is composed of clay and may shift somewhat at high stages. There is a small
amount of vegetation at the station. The current is sluggish.

• During high water, discharge measurements are made from the doAvnstream side of the
bridge. The initial point for soundings is the inner face of the left or west abutment. Low-
water measurements are made near the bridge by wading, and at very low stages a weir
is used.

During 1913 the gauge was read by James Mann.

BRIDGE CREEK AT GULL LAKE.

This station was established March 29, 1911, by G. H. Whyte. It is located at the
highway bridge on the S.E. X Sec. 23, Tp. 12, Rge. 19, W. 3rd Mer., near the Canadian
Pacific Railway station.

The gauge, wliich is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the
downstream side of the right abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 95.63) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the right bank
182 ft. from the gauge and 158 ft. from the northwest corner of the C.P.R. station.

LAKE OF THE NARROWS DRAINAGE BASIN

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

333

The channel is slightly curved for 160 feet above but is straight for 80 feet below the sta-
tion. Both banks are low and hable to overflow. The bed of the stream is sandy and Uable
to shift.

During high stages, discharge measurements are made from the bridge or by wading
near the section. During verj' low stages a weir is used. The initial point for soundings
is at the north end of the downstream side-of the bridge and is marked with a broad arrow.

From July 5th to the end of the season W. Airth was the observer. There was no flow
during this period. No observer was obtainable dxiring the early part of the season; also no
discharge measurements were made.

LAKE OF THE NARROWS DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Lake of the Narrows is a small lake, three miles long and one and a half miles wide, in
Township 3, Range 23, West of the 3rd ISIeridian. It has a drainage area of about 200
square miles.

The principal stream in the basin is Skull Creek, which rises in the eastern slope of
Cypress Hills. It flows through a narrow valley for the greater part of its course, but as it
nears the lake, the valley widens out into large meadows. The surrounding country is
roUing prairie. , ~

The mean annual precipitation in the drainage basin is about 13 inches, but very Uttle
rainfall occurred diu-ing 1913 causing Skull Creek to go dry in places.

There are several small irrigation ditches in this drainage basin, the largest of which is
Moorhead and Fearon's ditch, which diverts water from Skull Creek on the N.E. U Sec. 29,
Tp. 10, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer.

SKULL CREEK AT DOYLE'S RANCHE.

This station was established April 8, 1911, by G. H. Whyte, to obtain the discharge of
the stream above all ditches. It is located on the N.E. li Sec. 29, Tp. 10, Rge. 22, W. 3rd
Mer., about one quarter of a mile above the headgates of Fearon and Moorhead's irrigation
ditch, one and a half miles above Skull Creek P.O., and half a mile upstream from Thos.
Doyle's house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fi.xed to a post at
the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 86.82) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00), located 350 feet N. 32o E. of the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 20 feet above and below the station. The right bank
is high, while the left is low and liable to overflow during high water stages. Both banks are
well wooded. During 1913 an artificial control was constructed about 40 feet below the gauge
rod.

Discharge measurements are made at low and ordinary"^ stages by wading or with a weir.
At high stages, measurements are made from the traffic bridge at the lower station, which is
three miles downstream.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Thomas Doyle.

SKULL CREEK NEAR SKULL CREEK.

This station was established June 29, 1908. by F. T. Fletcher. It is located on the
N.W. % Sec. 10, Tp. 11, Rge. 22, W. 3rd Mer., at the highway bridge on the surveyed trail
running east from Maple Crock. It is about two miles north of Skull Creek P.O., and
about twenty five miles oast of Maple Creek, by trail.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to the centre pile on the upstream or south side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev_

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

S8.41) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), sunk in the left
bank of the stream about forty feet southwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 150 feet below the station. Both banks are
high and not liable to overflow. The banks are clear of brush for about fifty feet above and
below the station, and then become densely wooded. The bed of the stream is composed of
sand and may shift somewhat at high stages. The current is moderate.

Discharge measurements are made from the upstream side of the bridge. _ The initial
point for soundings is the inner face of the right abutment of the bridge. There is only one
channel at low stages, but owdng to the centre row of piles supporting the bridge there are
two channels at high stages of the stream. Low water measurements are made at or near
the gauge by wading, and at very low stages a weir is used.

During 1913 the gauge was read by J. Mann.

CRANE LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

''General Description.

Crane Lake is one of the largest of the lakes which receive their supply from the drainage
of the northern slope of Cypress Hills. It is situated in Tp. 13, Rge. 23, W. 3rd Mer., and
covers an area of 25 square miles.

The lake has no outlet, is shallow, and the water is saUne in character. It is fed by
Piapot Creek, which rises in the Cypress Hills, flows northeastward, and is joined by Bear
Creek in Sec. 7, Tp. 12, Rge, 22, W. 3rd Mer., before it reaches the lake.

The country to the north of the lake is roUing and of little use for agriculttire, being the
eastern end of a range of sand hills which extend northwestward about 40 miles. South of the
lake the countrj' is roUing prairie, which is bare of tree growth, except along the creeks where
there is small growth of willow and shrub. As one gets closer to the hills the country becomes
more broken and the tree growth increases, making the ravines and coulees at the head of the
creeks natural reservoirs, which regulate the spring run-off considerably.

There are a number of irrigation schemes in operation and a number proposed, in this
basin, also one or two industrial schemes along the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway.

The mean annual precipitation of the northern part of the basin is about 12 inches, but in
the hills this is exceeded. During the winter season, from November to April, the streams
are frozen over.

EAST BRANCH OF BEAR CREEK AT JOHNSON's RANCHE.

This station was estabUshed August 18, 1909, by H. R. Carseallen. It is located on the
S.E. % Sec. 21, Tp. 10, Rge. 23, W. 3rd Mer., about a mile and a half southeast of Skibe-
reen P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a
vertical post sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank and securely stayed. The zero
(elev. 92.26) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on
the right bank in the line of the gauging section and 53 feet from the gauge.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and 40 feet below the station. Both banks are
high, and not liable to overflow except during extreme floods. The banks are free from brush
at the station, but are wooded above and below. The bed of the stream is composed of coarse
grave and stones. Large stones in the bed of the stream make accurate soundings at the
station rather difficult to obtain. The current is moderate.

Discharge measurements are made at or near the gauge by wading, or by means of a weir
A measuring \dre is stretched across the stream at the section. The initial point for soundings
is a square stake, d iven close to the ground on the left bank and marked "LP."

During 1913 the gauge was read by ^Irs. F. Quarry.

WEST BRANCH OF BEAR CREEK AT BERTRAM S RANCHE.

This station was estabUshed September 16. 1909, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located on
the S.W. 14 See. 32, Tp. 10, Rge. 23, W. 3rd Mer. It is about three hundred j^ards above the
junction of this branch -with the east branch of Bear Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a post sunk n the bed of the stream at the left bank and firmly stayed to the bank. The
zero of the gauge (elev 92.2.5) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev.
100.00), situated on the right bank about 35 feet from the gauge.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. I9I4

The channel is straight for 25 feet above and 15 feet below the station. Both banks are
comparatively high and will overflow only in extreme flood. The banks are free from brush at
the station, but are heavily wooded immediately above and twenty feet below. The bed of
the creek is composed of sand and coarse gravel. The current is moderate at the station, and
becomes very swift twenty feet downstream.

During ordinary stages discharge measurements are made at, or a short distance below,
the gauge by wading. High-water measurements are made at the government bridge, situated
about three-quarters of a mile upstream. The initial point for soundings at the station is a
square stake driven close to the ground on the left bank and marked "I. P."

During 1913, the gauge was read by Charles Bertram.

BEAR CREEK NEAR UNSWORTH S RANCHE

This station was established June 22, 1908, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located on the
S.E. % Sec. 18, Tp. 11, Rge. 23, W. 3rd Mer., at the highway bridge on the surveyed trail
running east from IVIaple Creek. It is about one half mile south of S. Unsworth's ranche, and
fifteen miles east of Maple Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to the centre pile of the downstream side of the bridge. It is referred to a circle of nail-heads

342

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

in the top of the stringer at the left abutment on the downstream side of the bridge; elevation,
14.05 feet above the zero of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and below the station. Both banks are high
and not liable to overflow. The station is kept clear of underbrush, but both banks are
covered with small trees above and below the bridge. The bed of the stream is sandy and is
liable to change at h'gh stages of the creek. The current is moderate, becoming sluggish at
very low stages.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the inner face of the left abutment of the bridge. Low water measure-
ments are made at a wading section about one half mile downstream from the gauge, or about
200 feet above. There is only one channel at low stages, but at high stages the centre row
of piles supporting the bridge divides the stream into two channels. Gauge height records
are sometimes affected by beaver dams.

During 1913, the gauge was read by S. Unsworth.

PIAPOT CREEK AT CUMBERLAND S RANCHE.

This station was established June 17, 1908, by F. T. Fletcher. It was originally located
on See. 17, Tp. 11, Rge. 24, W. 3rd Mer., at the highway bridge on the surveyed trail running
east of Maple Creek and about nine miles from Maple Creek. On account of the difficulty of
obtaining an observ'er, it was moved on May 13, 1909, by H. R. Carscallen to a wading
section near A. Cumberland's house. It is now located in the N.E. X Sec. 18, Tp. 11, Rge. 24
W. 3rd Mer., about one mile north of the bridge.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, whicli is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically-
to a post sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank and securely stayed to the bank. The
zero (elev. 88.75) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located
on the right bank 47 feet N. 40" E. from the gauge, and sunk within five inches of the ground.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and 100 feet below the station. The right bank
is high and not liable to overflow; the left is comparatively low and will overflow at flood
stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and may_ shift during high
stages. The current is sluggish. During the summer months vegetation in the stream bed
gives considerable trouble.

During ordinary stages, discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of
the bridge at the old station.

During 1913 the gauge was read by A. Cumberland.

HAY LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Hay Lake is in Township 11, Range 25 West of the Third Meridian, and is fed by Hay
Creek which rises in the Cypress Hills. It is a comparatively small body of saline water of an
approximate area of three square miles. Like all lakes in this locality it has no outlet.

The basin supplies water for a number of irrigation schemes, and also to the town of
Maple Creek for domestic and industrial purposes, the water being piped some nine miles, by
means of a gravity system.

The annual precipitation averages about twelve inches; during 1913 it was slightly less
than this amount.

hay creek at hay creek school.

This station was established on July 4, 1910, by R. G. Swan. It is located on the S.W. '4
Sec. 29, Tp. 10, Rge. 25, W. 3rd Mer., and is above Mr. Fauquier's ditch and below the
overflow of the Maple Creek waterworks reservoir.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post at the
right bank of the stream. The zero of the gauge (elev. 94.79) is referred to a permanent iron
bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) sunk in the right bank about 125 feet east of the gauge.

The channel of the creek is slightly curved for about eight feet above and 50 feet below the
gauge. The bed of the stream is sandy and covered with vegetation, which affects the point
of control. The current is sluggish, and during high stages both banks, being low, are liable
to overflow.

Discharge measurements are made with a meter at high stages and with a weir at ordi-
nary and low stages.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Miss F. Burnham until June 30th; it was read for the
remainder of the season by Miss K. Jones.

HAY LAKE DRAIXAGE BASIX 349

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

HAY CREEK AT FAUQCIER's RANCHE.

This station was established on April 22, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located ou the
X.E. '-4 Sec. 30, Tp .10, Rge. 25, W. 3rd ^ler., about seven miles southeast of ]Maple Creek.
It is situated below the intake of H. Fauquier's irrigation ditch, and also below the intake of
the Maple Creek waterworks. Hence, records of flow obtained at this station do not represent
the total discharge of the stream. The flow of springs below the Maple Creek waterworks
intake, together with drainage, and the overflow from the Maple Creek waterworks give a
continuous flow in the creek above the station. This flow, which is very largely the overflow
from the ^laple Creek waterworks, varies greatly, depending upon the consumption of water
by the town of Maple Creek and by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The disappearance of
water before reaching this station is explained in part, by the fact that Mr. F'auquier diverts
water into his irrigation ditch. The remainder of the water must seep through the gravel
of the creek bed before it reaches this station. The fact springs bi-eak out a short distance
below the gauge and give a continuous flow (so far as is known) seems to bear out the seepage
theory.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fixed to a post at the
left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.39) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark
(assumed elev. 100.00) sunk in the left bank about 30 feet southwest of the gauge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 200 feet below the station. Both banks
are high and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of sand and coarse
gravel and is liable to shift at high stages. The current is sluggish during low water but is
very swift at high stages.

Discharge measurements are made near the gauge by wading and at very low stages a
weir is used. The initial point for soundings is a square stake driven close to the ground on
the left bank, marked "I. P."

During 1913, the gauge was read bj' Miss ]M. Fauquier.

Xo water was diverted by Mr. Fauquier's ditch during the season of 1913.

BIG STICK LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description,

Big Stick is one of the largest lakes in the northern Cypress Hills district. It is situated
about township 15, range 25, west of the 3rd meridian, and covers an area of 35 square miles.
The lake is alkaline in character and has no outlet.

The only source of supply of the lake is Maple Creek which its tributary Gap Creek rises
in the Cypress Hills tlirity miles south. On the south and east the lake is bounded by the
Sand Hills. The drainage area is 820 square miles.

The topography of the drainage basin is for the most part gently rolling and the creek
slope is small except near the source. The basin is bare of trees except in the hills. The
channel is flat, ^\ide and in most places sandy.

The spring break-up in 1913 took place about March 28th. This was the only flood of
importance during the year. No damage of any extent was caused by floods.

There are several small irrigation ditches in the basin.

MAPLE creek at MAPLE CREEK.

This station was established May 9, 1908, by R. J. Burley. It is located at the liighway
bridge just north of the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks in the town of Maple Creek, on the
road allowance east of the N.E. ^ Sec. 16, Tp. 11, Rge. 26, W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge, wliich is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached vertically
to a pile on the upstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 92.83) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank at the west
road fence, 37 3^ feet west and 13 feet south of the southeast corner of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 100 feet below the station. Both banks
are comparatively low and will overflow at high-water stages of the stream. The bed of the
stream is composed of sand and may shift during flood stages. The current is moderate at
high and .sluggish at low stages of the stream.

During high water fliscliarge measurements are made from the downstream side of the
bridge. The initial point for soundings is the face of the right or south abutment, and is
marked by "O" in white paint on the bridge beam. During ordinary stages, discharge
measurements are made about fifty feet downstream from the gauge by wading, and at low
stages a weir is used. The bridge is not at right angles to the current and measurements from
the bridge must be corrected.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Miss Kate William.

MAPLE CREEK NEAR MAPLE CREEK.

This station was established on May 4, 1910, by H. R. Carseallen. It is one mile and a
half north of the town of Maple Creek, at the bigliwav bridge east of the S. E. >4 Sec. 28,
Tp. 11, Rge. 26, W. 3rd Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to a pile
in the middle of the downstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 81.60) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated at the west road
fence, 100 feet south and 29 feet west of the southeast corner of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 10 feet belo\y the gauge. Both banks
are high, sand}' and not liable to overflow. The bed is sandy and liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made during high stages with a current meter from the
downstream side of the bridge. The initial point for soundings is the face of the left abutment
and is marked on the side of the bridge beam by '"O" in white paint. The current is not
at right angles to the cross section and a correction is applied to the area. During ordinary
stages gaugings are made upstream by wading, and during low stages a weir is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read bj^ Miss Kate Williams.

GAP CREEK AT SMALLS RANCHK.

This station was established April 25, 1909, by F. T. Flelcliir. It is located on the
S.E. 1/4 See. 4, Tp. 10, Rge. 27. W. 3rd Mer., 1,000 feet west of the surveyed trail from Maple
Creek to Tenmile police detachment, and about twelve miles south of Maple Creek.

The gau^e, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the right bank. It is situated at the road allowance between
Sees. 3, and 4, Tp. 10, Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer., and is just above the point where McShane
Creek joins Gap Creek. The zero of the gauge (elev. 66.63) is referred to a permanent iron

bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated at the McShane Creek bridge about 1.000 feet
south of the gauge.

The ehanuel is straight for 60 feet above and 500 feet below the station. The right
bank is high and will not overflow except at very extreme flood stages; the left bank is much
higher than the right and will not overflow at any stage of the stream. The bed of the
stream is composed of loose, coarse gravel. The current is sluggish.

Discharge measm-ements are made at ordinary stages Tvith a current meter by wading,
and from a cable car at high stages. The initial point for soundings is a seven-eights inch iron
pin on the right bank, 226 feet upstream from the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by WiUiam Small.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

MCSHANE CREEK AT SMALL S RANCHE.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established April 23, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located on the
S.W. % See. 3, Tp. 10, Rge. 27, W. 3rd Mer., at tlie highway bridge on the surveyed trail
from Maple Creek to Tenmile police detachment, about 12 miles south of Maple Creek. It is
about 600 feet above the mouth of the creek and about 500 feet from Wm. Small's house.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached firmly
to the right abutment on the downstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev.
85.21) is referred to a permanent iron benchmark (assumed elev. 100.00), located just east of
the bridge upon the north side of the diversion of the road allowance. The bench-mark
stands about four inches above ground and is protected ^vith stones.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and 200 feet below the station. Both banks
are high and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of coarse gravel and
shifts at high stages. The current is swift.

Highwater measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge. The initial
point for soundings is the inner face of the right abutment of the bridge. Low water measure-
ments are made near the gauge by wading and at very low stages a weir is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read by William Small.

The period of flow of this creek is short. It becomes dry usually in the month of June
and remains so during the remainder of the season, except during the very heavy rains.
Mr. Small diverted water above this station in 1913 during the month of May.

GAP CREEK NEAR MAPLE CREEK.

This Station was established on May 3. 1910, by H. R. Cai'scallen. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the road allowance east of the N.E. H Sec. 31, Tp. 11, Rge. 26, W. 3rd Mer.
about four and a half miles northwest of the town of Maple Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the right
abutment on the downstream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 81.61) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated 95 feet east of the northeast
corner of the bridge.

The channel is straight for about 130 feet above the station and 60 feet below. The
left bank is high and the right low, but not liable to overflow. The bed is sandy and shifts
during flood stages.

During high water, discharge measurements are made from the bridge, and during
ordinary stages b}' wading. The initial point for soundings is marked on the north end of the
bridge in red paint. The bridge is not at right angles to the direction of the current and a
coefficient is applied to the measured discharge to obtain the actual discharge. The discharge
is determined in extreme low water by means of a weir.

During 1913 the gauge was read by ]Miss Kate Williams.

MANY ISLAND LAKE DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description

Many Island Lake, about 25 square miles in area, is situated on the boundary line be-
tween the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan about ten miles north of the town of
Walsh. It is the farthest west of the several lakes which receive the drainage of the north
slope of the Cypress Hills. The water is shallow and alkaline. Its only source of water sup-
ply is Mackay Creek with its tributaries, Stony and Boxelder Creeks.

The topography of the basin is very rough and the creek slopes are heavy. The basin
is bare of trees except in the hills near the sources of the streams. The creek channels are
deep and the beds are mostly gravel.

The spring breakup in 1913 took place about April 1st. As is the case ^\^th all prairie
streams, the highest discharges took place at this period. All the streams of this drainage
basin stopped running in June or July and remained so for the remainder of the season.

In the lower part of the drainage basin near the lake, irrigation has been developed to
some extent on hay meadows. In the upper part there are few irrigation schemes.

east branch of mackay creek at grant's ranche.

This station was established on October 13, 1911, bv M. H. French. It is located in the
N.W. 1,4 Sec. 36, Tp. 10, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer.. about 100 feet north of Arthur Grant's house.
It is about five miles south of Walsh and one mile above the junction of the east and west
branches of Maekey Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream near the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 7.5.85) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (.assumed elev. 100.00), situated on the right bank,
in line with the cross section and 100 feet from the initial point.

The channel is straight for 50 feet above and below the station. The right bank is a cut
bank^ and wiU never overflow. The left bank is rather low, covered with brush, and will
overflow in extreme floods. The bed of the channel is composed of coarse gravel and will
not shift.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading. The initial point
for soundings is the face of a five inch stake on the right bank, ten feet from the water's
edge, and is well protected by a mound of stones. Tli(> final point is a willow stump on the left
bank, 45.1 feet from the inital point and protected by a mound of stones.

During 1913, the gauge was read by A. D. Grant.

WEST BRANCH MACKAY CREEK AT SCHNELL's RANCHE.

This station was established October 12, 1911, by M. H. French. On September 20, 1912,
it was moved six miles downstream by G. R. Elliott. It is located on the N. E. \i See. 27,
-Tp. 10, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer., and is two miles above the junction with East Branch Maekay
Creek and seven miles south of the \allage of Walsh.

The gauge, which is a plain stalf graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a well
braced post sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The gauge is 126 feet S. 57" E.
from i/i mound on the north boundary of Sec. 27, Tp. 10, Rge. 1, W. 4th ]Mer. The zero
of the gauge (elev. 91.66) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00),
located on the left bank 104 feet north of the gauge.

The channel curves above and below the gauge. The right bank is low and covered with
brush and hable to overflow. The left bank is high and covered vnth bushes and not liable to
overflow. The bed is composed of clean, coarse gravel, hable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made with a current meter by wading and by the weir
method in low water. The initial point for soundings is a five inch stake marked "l.P." in
red paint, located on the left bank 34 feet from the gauge in line with the iron bench mark.
The final point is 66.8 feet from the initial point and is a five inch stake marked "F.P." in
red paint.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Christian Sehnell.

MACKAY CREEK AT WALSH.

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

This station was established on July 29, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located at the
traffic bridge one half mile south of the C.P.R. track at Walsh, and is on the N. W. V4 Sec. 26,
Tp. 11, Rge. 1, W. 4th Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to an upright
timber on the upstream side of the bridge near the right abutment. The zero of the gauge
(elev. 88.92) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on
the right bank on the downstream side of the bridge and 77.5 feet from the gauge.

The channel is straight for about 225 feet above and 500 feet below the station. Both
banks are clean and are liable to overflow during high stages. The bed is clean, composed of
clay and is not liable to shift. The current is sluggish.

During high water, discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the
bridge. At low stages, the. discharge is measured by wading, and at extreme low water a
weir is used.

During 1913 the gauge was read by G. G. Sept.

BOXELDER CREEK AT YOUNG .S RANCHE.

This station was established May 24, 1910, by P. M. Sauder. It is located at John
Young's farm on the X. E. M Sec. 2, Tp. 12, Rge. 30, W. 3rd Mer., and is two miles east
of Walsh.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to a post
at the right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 88.83) is referred to a permanent iron bench
mark (assumed elev. lOO.OOj, located on the left bank 65 feet from the gauge and 113 feet from
Mr. Young's house.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The stream flows in one channel, which curves both above and below the gauge. The
banks are high and not liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of clay.

Discharge measurements are generally made by wading at or near the gauge, but during
floods it is measured from the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge a few hundred feet below
the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by John Young.

ROSS CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Ross Creek rises in Elkwater Lake, a small body of water covering an area of approxima-
tely two square miles, situated in township 8, range 3, west of the fourth meridian. The
creek flows in a northerly direction as far as Irvine and then turns sharply to the west
and closely parallels the main hne of the Canadian Pacific Railway to Medicine Hat. Here
it is joined by Sevenpersons Rivei* and the combined flow empties into the South Saskatche-
wan in section 32, township 12, range 5, west of the fourth meridian. The tributaries of
Ross Creek are Bullshead Creek, which joins it in section 21, township 12, range 5, west of the
fourth meridian, and Grosventre Creek, which joins it in section 14, township 11, range 3.
west of the fourth meridian.

The topography of this basin is exceedingly rough and rolling and almost totally devoid
of tree growth. The one exception is a small area of the Forest Reserve just south of Ellavater
Lake, which has a good stand of pine and spruce.

The Canadian Pacific Railway takes the water supply for its tank at Irvine from Ross
Creek.

ROSS CREEK AT ROBINSON'S RANCHE.

This station was established on October 11, 1911, bj' M. H. French. It is located on the
N.W. 1/4 See. 24, Tp. 9, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer., about 30 miles southeast of Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream near the right bank; it is 720 feet S. 29" E. of the northeast
corner Sec. 23, Tp. 9, Rge. 3, W. 4th Mer. The zero of the gauge (elev. 93.12) is i-ef erred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) seven feet from the initial point for
soundings and in line with the regular cross section.

The channel is straight for about 75 feet above and 50 feet below the station. Both
banks are high enough to carry all stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed
of very coarse gravel and will not shift. The fall of the stream at this point is very great.
Water runs here all summer, but at the lowest stage the flow ceases a short distance below-
owing to seepage and evaporation.

Discharge measurements are made at ordinary stages eighteen feet downstream from the
gauge with a current meter by wading and at very low stages with a weir. The initial point for
soundings is a five inch stake on the right bank 50 feet from the water's edge. It is painted
red and is protected by a mound of stones. The final point for soundings is a stake on the
left bank 103.2 feet from the initial point.

During 1913, the gauge was read by James Robinson.

GROSVENTRE CREEK AT TOTHILL's FARM.

This station was established on October 10, 1911, by M. H. French. It is located
beside Tothill's house in the S. E. Vt Sec. 27, Tp. 9, Rge. 4, W. 4th Mer., about 28 miles
southeast of Medicine Hat.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundreths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream near the right bank and is 755 feet N. 60" W. of the northeast
corner of Sec. 21, Tp. 9, Rge. 4, W. 4th Mer. The zero of the gauge (elev. 83.89) is referred to
a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00, situated on the right bank.

The channel is straight for fifty feet above and 100 feet below the station. The right
bank is very liigh and brush covered. The left bank is low and produces a wide channel at
high stages. The bed of the stream is coarse gravel and is not liable to shift.

Discharge measurements are made during liigh stages with a current meter by wading at
a point about 18 feet downstream from the gauge. The initial point for soundings is the
face of a four inch stake driven in the left bank against a large rock and marked "I. P." in
knife cuts. At low stages gaugings are made with a weir, 88 feet downstream from the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by Mrs. Kate Tothill.

ROSS CREEK AT IRVINE.

This station was established on July 28, 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located at tlie
traffic bridge in the town of Irvdne, on the X. W. Vi See. 31, Tp. 11, Rge. 2, W. 4th Mer..
about 400 j^ards below the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's dam.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to the
downstream pile of the second row from the left abutment. The zero of the gauge (elev.
77.35) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the
left bank of the creek 66.5 feet east of the end of the upstream handrail.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The stream flows in one channel, which is shghtly curved for 75 feet above the station
and almost straight for 600 feet below. The banks are composed of cla5^ and are high and
not liable to overflow. The bed is composed of sand and gravel and may shift at high stages.

Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the bridge during high
stages of the stream, and during low water it is waded. During extreme low water a weir
is used.

During 1913, the gauge was read by H. E. Price.

BULLSHEAD CREEK AT CLARK S RANCHE.

This Station was established on October 9, 1911, bv M. H. French. It is located at
Clark's house in the N. W. M See. 15, Tp. 9, Rge. 5, W."4th Mer., about 25 miles south of
Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain stafif graduated to feet and liundredths. is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream near the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 88.45) is refered
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. KXJ.OO), situated on the left bank 3-300 feet
N. 680 W. from the quarter mound on the east boundary of Sec. 15, Tp. 9, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer.

STREAM MEASURE MEXTS, 1013

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

The channel is curved for 100 feet above and straight for 200 feet below the gauge.
Both banks are grassy and high and will not overflow. The bed is coarse gravel and is not
liable to shift.

Discharge measurements at high stages are made with a current meter by wading. The
intial point for soundings is the face of a four-inch stake, driven in the left bank 113 feet
downstream from the gauge and marked "I. P." in knife cuts. At low stages measurements
are made with a weir, 300 feet downstream.

During 1913, the gauge was read by W. E. Clark.

The headgate of Mrs. Clark's irrigation ditch is about a mile above this station. Water
was diverted during the month of September.

STARKS AND BURTON DITCH NEAR WOOLCHESTER.

This station was established on October 9, 1911, by W. A. Fletcher. It is located on the
S. E. 14 See. 17, Tp. 11, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer., about 260 feet below the headgate of the ditch
and ten miles south of Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and inches, is nailed to a post at the
right bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 97.87) is referred to the top of a stake (assumed
elev. 100.00), in the right bank and six feet upstream from the gauge.

The channel is straight for 250 feet above and 50 feet below the gauge. The cross section
is uniform and the bed and banks are sandy.

Discharge measurements during high water are made with a current meter by wading.
The initial point for soundings is the top of the bench mark. Ordinary discharge are measured
with a weir.

Daily gauge heights were not obtained during 1913. The ditch flowed for about 10 days
from April 28th to May 8th.

BULLSHEAD CREEK NEAR DUNMORE.

This station was estabUshed July 26., 1909, by F. T. Fletcher. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the S. E. M Sec. 16, Tp. 12, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer. It is four miles from Medi-
cine Hat, and one mile above the junction of Ross and BuUshead Creeks.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is spiked to the
upstream side of the left abutment. The zero of the gauge (elev. 89.48) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located 15 feet south of left abutment
of bridge.

The stream flows in one channel, which is straight for about 200 feet above and 450 feet
below the station. The banks are high, clean and not liable to overflow. The bed is composed
of sand and shifts.

During high water, discharge measurements are made frorn the bridge, but during low
water the discharge is measured by wading, or by means of a weir.

A competent observer could not be secured during 1913, and there are therefore no
records of the daily discharge.

SEVENPERSONS RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Sevenpersons River lies between the South Saskatehewala River and the Cj'press Hills,
and empties into the South Saskatchewan River at Medicine Hat. The drainage area
consists mostly of open level prairie which has a small rainfall and a run-off confined chieflly
to the spring freshet.

The creek has a considerable flow during the month of April but the discharge decreases
to nil about June.

There are no irrigation works of importance on this stream and the records are valuable
chiefly for statistical purposes.

SEVENPERSONS RIVER AT MEDICINE H.\T.

This station was estabUshed on April 27, 1910, by H. R. Carscallen. It is located in the
X. E. M Sec. 30, Tp. 12, Rge. 5, W. 4th Mer., at the bridge on the road from Medicine Hat
to Dunmore Junction and about one and a half miles east of the Canadian Pacific Railway
station at Medicine Hat.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is attached to the
east or right abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 86.68) is referred to a per-
manent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located 100 feet north of the mound and 64
feet northwest of the left abutment.

The channel is straight for about 100 feet above and below the station. Both banks are
high and wooded. The stream bed is sandy and liable to change at high water.

During high water stages, discharge measurements are made with a current meter. The
initial point of soundings is the inner face of the left abutment of the bridge. Low water
measurements are made wath a weir.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Chas. Pickering.

QV'APPELLE RIVER DRAIXAGE BASIX

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

QU'APPELLE RIVER DRAINAGE BASIX.

General Description.

Qu'Appelle River rises in Township 23, Range 4, West of the Third Meridian, and flows
eastward into the Assiniboine River in Township 28, Range 17, West of the Fii-st IMeridian.
These waters eventually find their way into Hudson's bay through the Red River, Lake
Winnipeg and Xelson River.

The chief tributaries of Qu'Appelle River are Moosejaw Creek, Last Mountain Lake,
Waseanna Creek and Loon Creek. Last Mountain is the largest lake in the basin, being some
sixty miles long and from one to three miles wide.

' The valley of the main stream is from two to three hundred feet deep, with a flat from one
to three miles wide along the river. This flat is covered in many places with brush, and the
side hills are in many places well wooded. The bench lands above the river are mostly level
prairie, much of which is now under cultivation.

The mean annual rainfall at ]Moose Jaw is fourteen inches, at Regina fifteen inches, and
at Indian Head nineteen inches. The streams are frozen during the T\inter months, and there
is usually an abundant snow fall.

There are several in-igation and many industrial water rights in this basin.

qu'appelle river at lumsdex.

This station was established on ]May 12, 1911, by J. C. Keith. It is located at a private
bridge on the premises of ;Mr. Jas. McEwan, on the X.W. U Sec. 33, Tp. 19, Rge. 21, W. 2nd
ISIer., in the north end of the town of Lumsden; it is about three miles below the mouth
of Wascana Creek and a httle over a mile above the mouth of Boggy Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is fastened to the
downstream side of the left abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 85.33) is
referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), located on the right bank of
the river, 34 feet from the southeast corner of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and below the station. Both banks are
fairly high but liable to overflow in an excessive flood. The bed of the stream is composed of
gravel and is not likely to shift. The current is moderate.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge during flood stages and bj' wading
during low stages.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Jas. ]McEwen and J. G. ]SIiller.

MOOSEJAW CREEK DRAINAGE BASIN.

General Description.

Moosejaw Creek rises in the Yellowgrass marsh, which lies in townships 9 and 10, range
17, west of the second Meridian, and flows in a north and westerly direction until it reaches
the city of Moose Jaw, where it is joined by Thunder Creek. From Moose Jaw it follows an
easterly and northerly course, finally emptying into theQu'AppeUe River near Buffalo Pound
Lake. From the headwaters to the city of Moose Jaw the drainage area is estimated at about
1830 square miles. This area is almost entirely devoid of ti'ee growth, except in the \icinity of
Moose Jaw, where the valley is lined with brush.

Throughout its entire length the creek flows in a very crooked but well defined channel.
The upper portion of the valley is small, being merely a depression, but it gradually increases
in size until at Drinkwater it is about thirty feet deep and at Moose Jaw about eighty feet
deep. The fall in the creek is very small, and particularly so between Drinkwater and Moose
Jaw, where the total fall is only 67.5 feet or an average of 2.3 feet per mile of valley.

The Canadian Pacific Railway Company has dams at Milestone, Rouleau, Drinkwater,
two at Moose Jaw and one at Pasqua. There is also a muuicipalitj' dam in Sec. 19 Tp. 15,
Rge. 24, W- 2nd Mer., which supplies water to the neighbourhood during periods when there
is no flow in the crtek. In 1913 the Canadian Paciffic Railway Company constructed a new
dam to replace their present dam in Moose Jaw.

MOOSEJAW CREEK NEAR LANG.

This station was established on June 21, 1911, by J. C. Keith. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the road allowance east of the N. E. i/4 Sec. 24, Tp. 11, Rge. 19, W. 2nd Mer.,
and is four miles west of the village of Lang.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the
downstream face of the centre row of piles of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 95.04)
is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) located on the left bank of
the stream 17 feet south of the last pile in the south approach of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 200 feet above and 150 feet below the station. Both banks
are low and overflow in high stages of the stream. The bed of the stream is composed of clay,
and in summer when the stream is very low becomes overgrown with vegetation. The
current is sluggish at all stages.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge in high stages of the stream and bj'
wading or with a weir at some other section during low stages. The initial point for soundings
at the bridge is the inner face of the south abutment.

The gauge was read during 1913 by Miss Irene Irvine.

MOOSEJAW CREEK AT MCCARTHY'S FARM.

This station was established on April 7, 1910, by P. M. Sauder and W. H. Greene. It is
located at the traffic bridge on the N. W. M Sec. 16 Tp. 16, Rge. 26, W. 2nd Mer., and is
three miles south of Moose Jaw P.O.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the inner
face of the right abutment of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 82.99) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), situated 33.5 feet northeast of the gauge.

The stream flows in one channel, which is straight for about 100 feet above and 300 feet
below the station. The right bank is high, shghtly wooded, and not Liable to overflow. The
left bank is low, partly wooded and liable to overflow. The bed of the stream is composed of
gravel, and is not liable to shift except during high water.

During high water, discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the
bridge, but in low water they are made by wading at a section about 30 feet downstream.
The initial point for soundings is at the west end of the handrail of the bridge.

The gauge was read during 1913 by V. J. McCarthy and members of his household.

SOURIS RIVER DRAINAGE BASIX.

General Description.

The source of the Souris River is in marshes near Yellow Grass, Saskatchewan. From
here it flows in a southeasterly direction almost parallel to the Soo line of the Canadian
Pacific Railway to Estevan. It then flows east to Ozbow; then it turns south and crosses the
international boundary in Range 34, W. of Principal Meridian. After making a loop into
North Dokota, it recrosses the International boundary in range 27, West of the First Meridian
and flows in a northeasterly direction to Souris, ]\Ianitoba, where it turns east, and finallj^
joins the Assiniboine River, in Township 8, Range 16, West of the First Meridian.

The chief tributaries of Souris River are. Long Creek, which joins it near Estevan,
IMoose ^Mountain Creek near Oxbow, North and South Antler Creeks near Sourisford, and
Pipestone Creek near Souris.

This stream drains a large tract of typical Western Plains. The rainfall will probably
average very Uttle ov-er fifteen inches, and is usuallj^ sufficiently divided over the year to
prevent excessive run-off or floods. At times when there is an unusual amount of rainfall,
and in the early spring the water drains into the streams very rapidly and causes a flood of
short duration.

There are towns, villages, and farms, all along the course of the stream and its tribu-
taries, which depend on it for a domestic and industrial water supply. The Canadian Pacific
Railway is a large consumer. The town of Estevan is establishing a waterworks system, and
there is a proposed system at Wej^burn to divert water from Souris River. In North Dokota
it has been proposed to divert water for irrigation purposes.

LONG CREEK NEAR ESTEVAN.

This station was established on June 22, 1911, by J. C. Keith. It is located on the
S.E. M See. 10, Tp. 2, Rge. 8, W. 2nd Mer., and is about half a mile above the mouth of the
creek and about two and one half miles south of the town of Estevan.

The gaugC; which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the shore
face of the first row of piles from the north end of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev.
83.90) is referred to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. lOU.OO) on the right bank
near the end of the bridge.

The channel is straight for 100 feet above and below the station. Both banks are steep
but are liable to be flooded during very high stages of the stream. Both are also covered with
brush. The bed of the stream is composed of clean gravel which is not liable to shift. The
current is sluggish.

During high water discharge measurements are made from the bridge but during low
stages a wading section elsewhere, where the current is swifter, must be used. Tho initial
point for soundings at the bridge is the inner face of the left abutment.

During 1913, the gauge was read by George Pawson.

STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

SOURIS RIVER NEAR ESTEVAX.

This station was established on June 23, 1911, by J. C. Keith, it is located about 50
feet below the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's dam on theN.E. 14 Sec. 11, Tp.2, Rge 8,
W. 2nd Mer., and is about two miles south and three quarters of a mile east of the town of
Estevan, and about tliree quarters of a mile below the mouth of Long Creek.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a heavy
timber sunk in and anchored to the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 82.55) is referred
to a permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00). on the right bank and about 47 feet
southeast of the end of the C.P.R. dam.

The channel is straight for about 100 feet above and below the gauge. Both banks are
steep but become submerged in very high water. Thej' are also both covered with brush.
The bed of the stream is covered with cinders from the Canadian Pacific Railways power
house and the section is liable to slight change due to the dumping of cinders on the banks.

Discharge measurements can only be made by wading at the gauge, as the cross-sections
at the bridges in that locality are affected by backwater. The flood discharge is estimated
by use of .suitable weir formulae for the dam above.

During 1913 the gauge was read by Wm. Bevan.

MOOSE MOUNT.\lN CREEK NEAR OXBOW.

This station was established on September 4, 1913, by O. H. Hoover. It is located near
W.E. Chrismas' house on N. E. M Sec. 15, Tp. 3, Rge. 2, W. of the 2nd iMer.. and is about
one mile south and half a mile west from Oxbow.

SOURIS RIVER DRAINAGE BASIN

395

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream on the left bank. The zero of the gauge (elev. 91.94) is referred
temporarily to the top of a stump of a small tree (assumed elev. 100.00) on the left bank
approximatelj- fifteen feet from the gauge.

The channel is straight for a considerable distance above the gauge but takes a sharp
curve to the right about one hundred j-ards below the gauge. Both banks are steep and not
likelj'^ to overflow during flood stages. Both are partly covered with wood. The bed of the
stream consists of clean sand and gravel and may shift slightly during flood stages. The
records could be affected by future beaver dams as they are now numerous in the vicinity.

Discharge measurements are made at the traffic bridge about one half mile upstream
during high stages, and diu'ing low water periods are made by wading at a section very
close to the gauge.

During 1913, the gauge was read by W. E. Chrismas.

SOURIS RIVER NEAR GLEN EWEN.

This station was established on June 26, 1911, by J. C. Keith. It is located near D. F.
Preston's house on the N.E. M See. 36, Tp. 2. Rge 1, W. 2nd Mer., and is about three miles
south and half a mile east from Glen Ewen.

The gauge, which is a plain staff graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to a post
sunk in the bed of the stream at the left bank. The zero (elev. 79.32) is referred to a perma-
enet iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00) on the left bank and within a few feet of the
gauge.

The channel is slightly curved for some distance above and below tiie gauge. Both
banks are steep but will overflow in very high stages of the stream. Both are partly covered
with woods. The bed of the stream is composed of clean sand and gravel and may sliift
during high water. Beavers sometimes affect the records at the gauge by building dams and
causing backwater.

Discharge measurements are made at the traffic bridge on the road aUowanee east of
See. 2, Tp. 3, Rge. 1, W. 2nd Mer., during high stages; during low water periods measurements
are made by wading at a point about 400 yards below the gauge.

During 1913 the gauge was read by D. F. Preston.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

SOXJRIS RIVER NEAR MELITA.

This station was established on July 20, 1911, by J. C. Keith. It is located at the
traffic bridge on the S. W. ^i See. 6, Tp. 4, Rge. 26, W. 1st Mer.

The gauge, which is a plain staiS graduated to feet and hundredths, is nailed to the west
pile on the down stream side of the bridge. The zero of the gauge (elev. 84.4.5) is referred to a
permanent iron bench mark (assumed elev. 100.00), on the right bank 51 feet from the end
of the bridge.

The channel is straight for a distance above the station, but curves to the right a short
distance below. The banks are high and partly wooded. The bed of the stream is composed
of clean sand and gravel, which may shift during high water.

Discharge measurements are made from the bridge, except during extreme low water
when they are made by wading.

During 1913, the gauge was read by E. Sykes.

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

REPORT ON ATHABASCA DISTRICT BY GORDON J. SMITH B.A.,

DISTRICT HYDROGRAPHER.

Pre\'ious to the summer of 1913, what was known as the "Edmonton district", inehidod
the district from Red Deer to Edmonton and thence eastward to Fort Saskatchewan, north-
ward to St. Albert and occasionally to Athabasca Lauding and westward over the line of the
Grand Trunk Paeifie as far as the "Summit"; covering the streams flowing from the eastern
slope of the mountains. With the exception of a few ^\anter measurements taken early in
1913, practically no work has been done west of Edmonton.

During the month of May however, preparations were made for more extensive work
along the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway west of Edmonton, and during June a
cable station was erected across the Athabasca River at Jasper, a point 235 miles west of
Edmonton, thus enabling discharge measurements to be made on the Athabasca at all sta-
ges of flow.

It was found that with the cable station at Jasper, and so many other streams, the
area was too extensive to be covered by one hydrographer, and so the part westward from
Edmonton to Jasper was placed under a separate head, to be known as the "Athabasca
Hydrographic District". This was to extend from the di^^de between the North Saskat-
chewan and Athabasca drainage basins (about five or six miles east of Entwistle). west-
ward to Jasper. I was placed in charge of this new district, while Mr. Thompson took
over the Edmonton area.

The Athabasca River forms the main drainage channel in the district to the west and
north of Edrnonton. But there are also two minor basins, those of the MacLeod and Pembina
Rivers. While these two eventually reach the Athabasca, I wish to consider them to some
extent separately from the Athabasca.

The channel of the Athabasca drains the area farthest west in the district, the MacLeod
the central part, and the Pembina the most easterly area.

Athabasca River. — The Athabasca River rises in the Rocky Mountains at about
52" 20' N. Latitude and 117'^ 30' W. Longtitude, and flows in a north and easterly direction
to its mouth in Lake Athabasca.

In the early part of its com-se, the Athabasca has the characteristics of a large, mountain
stream with its eanj^ons, waterfalls and rapids. The character of the country is' such, the
rocks being almost all sedimentary, of the limestone and quarzite varieties, that all the
mountain streams even the Athabasca in its upper stretches, have developed canyons at
some points in their courses.

I was able to make a reconnaissance of the Athabasca to a point about thirty miles
from Jasper towards its source. I reached the "Falls of the Athabasca" at this time and
have already reported on them.

I did not follow the river farther eastward however, than where it leaves the Une of the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, near Ilinton. In this direction there are some fairlv large
tributaries, including the Hay and Baptiste Rivers, which I was unable to reach.

Below the falls, the Athabasca widens out and flows with a very even gradient, th(>re
being very few sudden falls of any extent. The valley also widens out, as the river grows larger,
and varies from two to three miles or more in width. From Jasper eastward, the valley of llie
Athabasca is known as the "Yellowhead Pass" and its course is followed by the Grand' Trunk
Pacific Railway. Perhaps the most noticeable characteristic here is the very low altitude of
the river, which is around 3000 feet. This accounts to a large extent for the small drop of
the river throughout its course.

After leaving the mountains the Athabasca flows for .some distance through a wooded
section, and here it does not exhibit the meandering tendencies of the MacLeod and Pembina
Rivers farther east, but rather tends towards a straight even course.

During the month of June a cable station was erected across the river of Jasper. A
gauge rod and permanent iron bench mark were put in, and discharge measurements were
made during the remainder of the season. Previous to this, measurements had been taken
by wading the river, when possible, a short distance upstream.

The main channel of the river at this point is about 360 feet Avide, and there is a snuxll
channel on the east side about 40 feet in width, which can be waded at all times, and wliicli
dries up in the late summer. When the station was built in June, the river was in flood and

402 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

what appeared to be the best section then was chosen; as the river dropped however, a gravel
bar appeared in the centre of the main channel which caused some cross-cmrents.

Discharge measurements were made at Jasper on an average of once in from two to
three weeks during the summer, and the discharge varied from 12,000 to 4,500 second-feet
from July to October.

One featm-e of the Athabasca to be noted is that rain plaj^s, directly, only a very small
part in the variation of the discharge of the river at the Jasper station. A rainfall of two or
three days will, contrary to the behaviour of the McLeod and some of the other rivers, make
scarcely a noticeable difference in the gauge-heights of the Athabasca. A day or two of hot
clear weather will on the other hand cause a rise of from one to three feet, and a cold or
freezing night, a corresponding depression.

The small direct effect of rainfall and the large one of hot weather is probably due, to
some extent, to the large size of the Athabasca, and more particularly to the fact that the
lower valleys of the mountains are the only places where precipitation is received directly as
rain, it coming as snow farther up the slopes and accumulating as snow-fields, which serve as
reservou's to swell the river in the hot weather.

Whirlpool River. — The Whirlpool River enters the Athabasca from the southwest at a
point, about twelve miles south of Jasper. I was unable to visit this river and am not able
to report on it.

Miette River. — The Miette River joins the Athabasca about a mile southwest of
Jasper. It flows eastward from the "Di\'ide" to its mouth, a distance of some eighteen niiles.
Above the mouth the river follows a twisted eom'se for some distance and has a comparatively
low gradient. At Jasper the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway leaves the valley of the Athabasca,
tm-ns to the westward and follows the narrower valley of the Miette to the summit of the
Yellowhead Pass.

During the early part of 1913 a few winter measurements were taken on the Miette
River, and for a short time after the ice went out, the river could be waded. But continued
hot weather brought down the snow, and the river rose about six feet, so that wading was out
of the question. There is a traffic bridge across the river about two miles south of Jasper, and
from this a discharge measurement was made, with considerable difficulty, when the river
was practically at its highest and the water running over the bridge.

Several measurements of the discharge were made here during the summer. The bed of
the stream at this point is mostly soft mud and was continually shifting. Later in the season
the section became blocked with debris. Due to this, and the fact that it was the intention
of the Park Superintendent to erect a more permanent structure at this point, I established the
regular station for the Miette at the second traffic bridge, a short distance farther upstream.
This bridge is a wooden structure built on heavy broken stone piers and is supposed to be
permanent. The section here is also much better, being composed of hard gravel and small
stones. The river is comparatively straight for a short distance on each side of the bridge, so
that thecurrent at the station is perpendicular to the section. Measurements were taken
at this station after the beginning of September.

The discharge of the Miette from June to October varied from about 1,600 to 400
second-feet.

Maligne River. — The Maligne River rises in Maligne Lake and follows a northwesterly
course to the Athabasca River, joining it about six miles northeast of Jasper. Its basin lies
about parallel to that of the Upper Athabasca, and is separated from the latter by the Maligne
range of mountains.

I visited the Maligne River during the early part of July, and found that fording at this
time. of year was impossible. For a di.stance of some two miles above its mouth, the river is
about fifty feet wide, from three to four feet in depth, and runs very swiftly, making a crossing
in this stretch impracticable. In these two miles the river has a bed of sand and gravel. Its
banks are fairly low and even. Above this however the channel lies in a deep, narrow canyon,
which grows continually deeper and nart-ower for some distance upstream.

At the lower end of the canyon the Maligne seems to have its full volume flowing at the
surface, but at a point aboiit half a mile above the lower end, two-thirds of the flow disappears
underground, leaving in the spring and summer a small third, and in the later fall a mere
trickle flowing down tlirough the canj^on above this point.

Above the entrance of the underground portion the remaining water flows down through
the very narrow, deep canj'on in a series of cataracts, falling about 300 feet in a distance of
half to three-quarters of a mile. The character of the surroundings is such, that the question
of power would be reasonable, were it not for the comparatively small surface-flow of water,
which in the late autumn would almost disappear.

I was unable to cross the river where it had its full volume, and therefore was unable to
make any measurements of its discharge. Above the canyon where the river was compara-
tively small, I made some measurements during September and October, and the discharge
was slightly over one hundred second-feet. This is only a small percentage of the flow below
the canyon, where the river is all above ground.

APPENDIX 403

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

I made a triangulation survey of the Maligna, and preparations were made for erecting
a cable station at a point about one hundred yards above the mouth of the river. The section
at this point is very good and should prove satisfactory for obtaining discharge measurements
at all stages.

Snaring River. — The Snaring River flows into the Athabasca from the northwest, at a
point about twelve miles northeast of Jasper.

I made several visits to the Snaring by trail from Jasper during the season, but until
the middle of September, when I was able "to wade the river, I could not get a satisfactory
measurement of its discharge.

The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway has a steel bridge across the river a short distance
from its mouth, but the section at this point is verj^ poor, so that I did not attempt a measu-
rement.

The Canadian Northern Railway had bridge in course of construction about a quarter
of a mile further upstream, and while at the time, the section there was also very poor,
changes may be made during the erection of the bridge, that may enable measurements
to be taken there. Otherwise it wiU be necessary to construct a cable station, as the river can
rarely be waded before the second or third week in September at any point, where a satisfac-
tory discharge measurement could be made.

Rocky River. — The eom-se of the Rocky River lies to the northeast and parallel to
those of the jMaligne and the Upper Athabasca Rivers. From the former it is separated by
the CoUn range, and its eastern limit is the Miette range. The river comes down from the
southeast and joins the Athabasca near a station on the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway
called Hawes.

Some winter measurements were made of the Rock^' River during the early part of 1913,
and when the ice went out, measurements were made from the stell bridge of the Grand
Trunk Pacific Railway.

Early in June, I put in a staff gauge and established a regular station at the bridge the
description of which I sent to Calgary. The gauge was read during the summer by the
pump man at the Hawes water tank.

The river is very swift at this point during its high stages, but Tvdth care accurate gaugings
may be made. Later in the summer the river drops considerably, and may be waded beneath
the bridge. Between this point and its mouth, a distance of some three hundred yards, the
river drops about five or six feet and empties into the Athabasca through several small
channels. At high stages the force of the discharge has been such that the Athabasca has been
forced over and has torn down its opposite bank for some distance back.

Above the railway the river flows in several channels over a \vade flat, which gradually
narrows, till at a point about five miles upstream, it becomes a canyon, which extends for
some miles. The canyon is very narrow and at places has shear limestone AvaUs rising from
the water to a height of about three hundred feet on both sides. _ At these points the width of
water at the bottom is scarcely twenty-five feet, so that the flow is very turbulent and swift.

From the data collected over a period of five or six months, from May until October, it
will be seen that the discharge was exceedingly irregular, at times the higher gauge height
having the smaller discharge and vice versa. I tried by careful study of the data, and of the
stream itself, to find some explanation for this, and the only reason I could find was the
shifting nature of the stream bed. The bed is composed of small gravel and coarse sand,
shifts a great deal under even small floods, so that this might alter the relation of the discharge
to the gauge height.

Stoney River. — The Stoney river flows down from the Northwest and joins the
Athabasca about three miles downstream from the mouth of the Rocky. The valley of the
Stoney forms the pack route into the mountains to the northward.

Some winter measurements were made in the Stoney in the early part of 1913, but after
the first part of May there was no way to cross the Athabasca, so that I was unable to visit
the river.

Railway workmen, who had been on the northwest side of the Athabasca, stated that the
Stoney was quite large, and could not be waded till late in the autumn.

Fiddle Creek. — Fiddle Creek joins the Athabasca from the Southeast about four miles
east of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railwaj^ station of Pocahontas. The railway crosses the
river about one hundred yards above its mouth.

Above its mouth the river flows in several small channels over a flat, but a short distance
up the valley narrows and soon developes into a canyon. The character of the country is
such that the river is subject to violent floods, which on one occasion carried out the bridge
piers.

I obtained discharge measurements by wading the river, a short distance above the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway bridge during August and September, and its discharge at
this time varied from 300 down to 70 second-feet.

Toward the end of this time the river was dropping rapidly. It is improbable that the
stream could be waded much before the middle of July.

404 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

Prairie Creek. — Prairie Creek lies to the east of the first range of the Rockies. It runs
northward in the foothills, and joins the Athabasca in Sec. 5, Tp. 51, Rge. 25, W. 5th Mer.,
about four miles west of Hinton.

The stream varies up to twenty-five feet in width and is quieter and more regular in its
flow than the mountain streams. I made measurements of the stream by wading, and from
July to October the discharge ran from 70 to 10 second-feet. It would probably be much
gi'eater earlier in the season, and become negligible during October.

McLeod River.- — A short distance east of Hinton, the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway
leaves the vaUey of the Athabasca, crosses a divide near Obed, turns to the eastward, and
strikes into the drainage area of the McLeod River. From Obed the Athabasca continues in a
northeasterly direction, through a rolhng country interspersed with muskeg.

The McLeod River rises in the Rockies just south of the 53rd Parallel and in ranges 23
and 24, west of the 5th meridian.

I was unble to spend much time in the upper regions of the McLeod, but early in Septem-
ber, together with Mr. G. H. Whyte, I made a trip in from Bickerdike to "Mile 37" on the
Alberta Coal branch. From there, through the kindness of the Forest Supervisor, I was able
to go up over the Mountain Park line on liis gasoline speeder, and get a look at the country
through which the McLeod River flows in its early stages.

In these upper stretches the McLeod is typically mountainous in character, and drops
very rapidly. It differs from the Athabasca, not only greatlj^ in size, but it also has a much
narrower and more confined valley.

After lea\ang the mountains the McLeod flows through a series of roUing, well watered
forest, and as it leaves the mountains farther behind, its gradient becomes very regular, and
its bed Made and comparatively shallow. Its most noticeable characteristic is its meanders.
The country through which it flows is fairly soft, consisting mostly of cla3^ and soft sandstone
and this probably helps to accoimt for its exceedingly twisted course.

Discharge measurements had been made on the IvIcLeod dm'ing the spring of 1913, from
the railway bridge at "Mile 6" on the Alberta Coal Branch, in Sec. 5, Tp. 52, Rge. 18, W. 5th.
Mer. This point however is objectionable in almost every pU.rticular, so that, while I was
forced to take measurements here, it being the only available spot, I did not establish a
regular station. The discharge at this point from May to October varied between about
1,850 to 350 second-feet.

The section under the railway bridge is very poor, there being two channels, both of
which are running at high water, and one of which is full of still water, when the river is lower.
The bottom is very uneven with large rocks and ledges. The river turns a short distance
above the bridge, so that in no way is the section particularly good.

In addition to this the measurements had to be taken from the bottom girders of the
steel bridge, which are about forty feet above the river. This was an awkward proposition.

Finally there is the train service. The train leaves Edson three days a week at 2 a.m.
There is no scheduled time for its return, and it is liable to come back anywhere between
three the same afternoon and noon the following day. As there is no accommodation at all
at "Mile 6", this is very troublesome. On one occasion the train failed to stop at twelve at
night, necessitating a six mile walk to Bickerdike, and the sending of a section crew for the
instruments and sounding weights.

There were towers and a cable across the ^SIcLeod a short distance above the bridge,
which had beem used by the contractors when })uilding the railway. These could have
been repaired and used perhaps, but the section here was worse, if anything, than that at
the bridge.

I examined the McLeod River, near the moutli of Wolf Creek, about ten miles east of
Edson. on my visit to the latter stream, and at the end of September I was able to wade the
McLeod at this point and make a discharge measurement. The section here is admirable,
the river being about tliree lumdred feet wide, of almost uniform depth, and having a l)ed
of small gravel. Wading however is not possible much before the middle of September.

At this point the Provincial Department of Public Works has a ferr}^ cable across the
river, and I would recommend that, if possible, the use of this be obtained. A stay-line, car,
etc., would be required and measurements could be taken at all stages of flow. Tlie interfe-
rence with the feny would not be serious, being only for the short time that the gaugings
were actuallj' being taken.

The discharge of the McLeod at the Wolf Creek ferry includes the discharges of Wolf
Creek, Embarras River and Sundance Creek, so that unless special data Avere required on
these streams, the necessity of measuring them would be obviated.

I did not visit the river at the town of ToUerton, about three miles south of Edsen, and
there is the possibility of measurements there.

Embarras River. — The Embarras River joins the McLeod in S. W. U Sec. 5, Tp. 52,
Rge. 18, W. 5th Mer. It runs in a northerlj^ direction and rises in Townships 48 and 49,
Range 21 west of the 5th Meridian .

SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25c

The Alberta Coal Branch of the Grand Trunk Pacifie Railway follows the valle.y of the
Embarras practically to its sonree. I made one trip as far as "]SIile 37", whei-e I made a mea-
surement of the river. The train ran at night, both going and coming, so that I am unable to
say much of the country tlirough which the river flows.

The mouth of the Embarras is about two miles east from the crossing of the McLeod.
From July until October, I took discharge measurements at a point about a quarter of a mile
above the mouth by wading the stream. The discharge varied from .550 to 150 second-feet.
At the time of the' higher discharge I had difficulty in wading, so that in high stages this
would be impossible. The river here is about 210 feet wide and has a bed of gravel and small
stones.

The discharge of the river at "Mile 37" Alberta Central Branch., in the middle of
September was about 17 second-feet.

Sundance Creek. — Sundance Creek enters the jMcLeod River in N. W. M See. 4.
Tp. 53, Rge. IS. W. 5th ]Mer., at a point about nine miles southwest of Edson. The valley
of the stream is fairly wide and of low gradient. I was unable to go any distance up the creek
but it seems that it is fed from a lake, and this probably accounts for its comparative regula-
rity of flow.

There is a pack road west from Edson, though in very poor shape, so that when I could
secure horses I was able to \asit the stream and measiire its discharge by wading at a point
about a quarter of a mile above its mouth. The discharge from July to October ranged from
about .50 to 35 second-feet.

East of Edson. — Some distance east of Edson the railroad crosses the McLeod River
at a point, where there seemed to be a good section, and a short distance farther on, what
is known as Wolf Creek. To make a reconnaissance of these, I secured a team at Edson and
drove eastward from there, some ten miles to the village of Wolf Creek.

The country east of Edson is a mixture of muskeg and parkland, and the streams conse-
quently flow slowly and meander in every direction. There are two small streams in this
district, the Edson Rive (^luskeg Creek, and Wolf Creek, and finally the main McLeod
of which I have already spoken.

Edson River. — The Edson River, or what was formerly called "]Muskeg Creek" is
well described by the latter name. It flows through the muskeg and low country north and
east of Edson, and reaches the McLeod River in See. 16, Tp. 54, Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer.

I first noticed the stream while dri^-ing from Edson to Wolf Creek, and measured the
discharge at a point about a mile above its mouth. The river is about fifty feet wide, with
a weedy bottom and sluggish flow. The discharge during August and September ranged from
about 75 to 40 second-feet.

Wolf Creek. — Wolf Creek flows from the South and enters the McLeod River in
Sec. 3, Tp. 54, Rge. 16, W. 5th Mer., about one hundred yards north of the railwaj- bridge
across the former stream.

I first measured the discharge of Wolf Creek in August, at a point under the bridge.
At this time the stream w-as verj- high from recent rains, and 1 had great difficulty in wading
it. The discharge at this stage was about 380 second-feet. The stream dropped considerabl\-
after this, and during September there w-as about fifty second-feet flowing.

I reached Wolf Creek by driving eastward from Edson, some ten miles to the village
of Wolf Creek, then crossing the McLeod on the ferrj- and walking about two miles to the
mouth of the creek.

Pembina River. — The Pembina River forms the second minor drainage channel.
The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway crosses the divide between the McLeod, and Pembina
basins in about Range 13, west of the 5th meridian.

The Pembina rises in Townships 46 and 47, Ranges 19 and 20, w^'st of the 5th Meridian,
and flows a northeasterly direction, joining the Athabasca in Tp. 66, Rge. 2, W. 5th Mer.
I did not examine the river for any distance on either side of the railroad, but in this vicinity
the district it drains is fairh' high and wooded.

During the summer season 1 was unable to wade the Pembina at Entwistle, where it is
crossed by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and so could not obtain a discharge measure-
ment. Mr. G. H. Whyte visited the river during September, and thought that it might be
possible to make arrangements with the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway to stretch a cable
across the river, between the piers of the bridge. The l)ridge is about 200 feet high, and the
piers at the bottom are sohd concrete. The section at this point is uniform, and though rather
deep, measurements here should prove satisfactory. If this were not possible, there is a
place a short distance below the bridge, where a cable station could befairlv easilv built.
The river here is about 200 feet wide.

406 STREAM MEASUREMENTS, 1913

4 GEORGE v., A. 1914

Lobstick River. — The Lobstick River joins the Pembina in Sec. 29, Tp. 53, Rge. 7,
W. 5th Mer. It flows in an easterly direction, and west of Entwistle its course is followed for
some distance by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. A large portion of the drainage area
appears to be low and swampy.

Measurements of the discharge of the river were made by wading at a point about one
hundred j^ards above its mouth during the early part of the season, but later the river be-
came so high it was impossible to wade it.

In searching for another section I found, some distance up stream, a bridge crossing
to an abandoned coal mine. The section here is fairly good and measurements could be
made at all stages, so I established a regular gauging station here and put in a staff gauge
which was read twice daily by one of the villagers. This bridge is about two and a half mile
northwest of Entwistle.

From May until October, the discharge of the Lobstick varied from 450 to 200 second-
feet. . . . ,,

These last two rivers form the easterly limit of the "Athabasca Hydrographie District .
The divide between the Athabasca and North Saskatchewan drainage areas lies in Range 6
or 7, west of the 5th Meridian, about five or six miles east of Entwistle.

1. When the priority of a name has been established by publication, particularly
when such publication has occurred in any standard or authoritative work or works,
that name should, if possible, be retained.

2. WTien names have been changed or corrected, if not too firmly established by
local usage or otherwise, the original forms should be restored.

3. In cases where what was evidently originally the same word, appears with
vai-ious spellings sanctioned by local usage or otherwise, these various spellings when
applied to different features should be regarded as in effect different names, and as
a rule it is inadvisable to attempt to produce uniformity.

4. As a rule the first published name should be retained, but where a choice is
offered between two or more names for the same place or locality, all sanctioned by
local usage, that which is most appropriate and euphonious should be adopted.

5. The possessive form should be avoided whenever it can be done without destroy-
ing the euphony of the name or changing its descriptive application. "Wliere the pos
sessive form is retained, the apostrophe should be dropped.

6. It is desirable to avoid the use of hyphens to connect parts of Indian names

7. IsTames consisting of more than one word may be connected by hyphens or
combined in one word as may be advisable.

8. It is desirable to avoid the use of the words city and town as parts of names.

9. The form ' canyon ' may be vised instead of ' canon,' but the latter is prefer-
able.

10. The term ' brook ' is considered preferable to ' creek ' for designating small
streams, and will be adopted in cases where the latter has not become too firmly fixed.

11. The Board suggests that the initial letters of generic or descriptive parts of
geographical names, when used in reports or other documents, should not be capitals.

12. The u.se of alternative names should be discontinued where possible or not
inconvenient.

13. Geographical names in a foreign country should be rendered in the form
adopted by that country, except where there are English equivalents already fixed by
usage.

14. French names in Canada are to be spelt, accented, hyphenated, (Src. accord-
ing to the rules of the French language.

15. In cases where names already exist, and have been published in both English
and French form and have been sanctioned by long usage, no attempt shall be made
to abolish either form, but both may be recognized and published in the Board's lists
or decisions and it shall be deemed correct to use either form in official documents in
either language. In all other cases any duplication of form shall be discouraged and
preference shall be given to the form which has priority of origin, whether this be
English or French.

16. In English text and map printing, the use of hyphens for composite French
names, though it is recommended, shall not be considered obligatory.

17. The spelling of native geographical names should represent, approximately,
the true sounds of the words as pronounced in the native tongue. In the ortho-
graphy of names of Indian origin in the province of Quebec, the rules of the Board,
based on those of the Royal Geographical Society, are preferable to French practice
as being simpler and in accordance with international usage, and shall be followed
in the case of new names.

18. Where a generic descriptive term, such as Cape, Bay, Biver, tSrc. is added
to a name, it is permissible to translate such term into French for use in French

10 DEPARTMEST OF THE INTERIOR

publications, or into English for use in English publications, if it can be done with-
out producing a mixture of English and French.

19. The Board adopts the rules of the Koyal Geographical Society for the ortho-
graphy of geographical names, of which the broad features are as follows: —

(a) The vowels are to be pronounced as in Italian and the consonants as in Eng-
lish.
(h) Every letter is pronounced, and no redundant letters are introduced. When
two vowels come together each one is sounded, though the result, when spoken
quickly, is sometimes scarcely to be distinguished from a single sound, as in
ai, au, ei.
(c) One accent only is used, the acute, to denote the syllable on which stress is
laid. This is very important, as the sounds of many names are entirely
altered by the misplacement of this ' stress.'

The following amplification of the foregoing rule? explains their application: —
