The diversity of the results obtained from the use of these two formuhe was the subject of investigation by Kutter and Canguillet and undoubtedly influenced the final determination of Kutter's formula.

Also, the cross-section of the stn-am through u his ,l,.stance should be as n.-arly uniform as possible, the l)ottom free rom projections, holes large boulders, etc., and the hanks of sufT.cient height ohvia e the possibility of overflow under flood conditions.

On the form.s provided, the nau)£e leading, tliickiie-s of ice, depth of ice lit low water surface, and temper;itiire are recorded; these r irds are kept in a liook, and post cards of corresponding form are provided on which the n rils are forwarded to the oflii ach week. In this northern climate the temperature has a very direct etteit upon the iliseharne of the streams. The loweriiiK of temper.ilure may have the eft'eet of teihicinn the Kroiind water supply and so directly atTect the How. or wtiat is of more importance, it may intiuence the variation in (jau({e height in such ti wav that the relation lietween ({auge lieinht and discharge will not hold true from day to day. The wavs in which this iuHueiice may lie lirounlit about are as follows: Where the stream has open-water stctioiis due to the pri'seiice of r.ipids. small fulls, or swifts, a drop in temperature will cause the formation of frazil or needle ice; this ice may lie formed in siiih (|;i.'intities that practic.iily the whole liody it' water is full of ice particles, which on ar .val at some restricted section of the river, for Instance, whert" an ice sheet occi. s may block the chamiel and materi- ;illy reduce the flow. Should such a condition occur below the KauKiiig station, the blockinK "f the channel will have the clTecl of backing up the water tit the Kauue. As such efTect on the (jauije height inight occur over a wide range of conditions, it m«y readily be seen that estimate's of discharge based on such records are not entirely reliable. The estimating of winter discharge, therefore, where there is a iK>ssibilitv of backwater effects, or where ice sheet occurs, is one which calls for considerable care and consich-ration of the governing features. A great deal of study is being given to this particular problem, not only by the diffi'reiit organizations here in Canada, but by engineers of the Water Resources IJivision of the United States Geological Survey. It is hoped, therefore, that zm ;aw's gi.veriiiiiji limcliarge under iliese conditions may eventually becom*' lietter imderstood. and a great deal of labour involved in the computing of the disciiarge.s elimina.cd. 24 OEPARTMEKT OF THE INTERIOR 6 CEORGc V, A. 1916 METERING STATIONS. The selection and er^tablishinent of metering stations is the first step in the collection of river disch;. (?e data. On the careful selection of a suitable site at which measurements may be made depends to a very large extent the value of the data gathered. The primary requisites for a suitable metering station are permanency of section, approach to and delivery from the section such that stream lines will always be at right angles to the section, and permanent banks of such height that the river will be confined to its channel under ail conditions of discharge. Another feature that should be considered in connection with the selection of a site is, that it should be so located that records taken at the point will indicate the complete run-ofT al)ove that point. Where diversion of water from the stream by canals, pipelines, etc., occurs, the station should be located above these points. It is often necessary to locate a number of stations throughout the length of the stream in order tliat the full discharge may be recorded. In this country, where in many districts the population is sparse, the availability of an observer will often materially influence the location of the station, ("lose proximity to the place of residence of the gauge reader is, as a rule, very necessary to the ol)taining of good records. There are five general types of .'stations located by tliis survey; these are: — 1 —Bridge .stations. 2 — C'al)le stations. :V — Cable carrier stations. 4 — Wading stations. .") — Boat stations. BkIDCK SlATIO.NS. \ gauRing Station located at a bridge is perhaps tlie most dc. irabje, other coiuiitions being favourable By locating a station in such a position the hydro- grapiier is aflforded good facilities lor making his measurements, the width of the liridge and stability of his position rendering him free to devote his whole attention to the actual metering. However, it is often found neces.sary to .select ■some other location, as at times under high-water conditions the whole flow of the stream does not pass between the abutments. Again, the presence of the piers in the stream, especially where the velocities are higli, introduces factors which prevent the olitaining of good results. In using a bridge for a station, the different points in the .section are marked off on the lirldge, and soundings taken at these jxiints. Cahle Stations. Wlicrc .1 liridge is not available in a f:ivoural)lf location and the .stream to be ob.servcd is large, recourse is Imd to the establishment of a cable station. This consists of a steel cable stretched over wooden towers which rest on each bank; a sni.'ill car, capable of carrying two men, is suspended from the cable. A light steel cable sup|K)rte(l by the towers and tagged at intervals to locate the verticals in the cross-section is .'ilso stretched across the river. Where the velocities arc high, a stay line for the meter is used; this is usually a M-inch guy wire, stretched across the stream 40 to 50 feet above the .section, the meter being kept m the desired vertical by means of a stay line attached to the meter and ruve thruugh :i small pulley wiii< h may be moved to any position along the stay wire. With this eciuipment the hydrographer is able to make ob.servations at different i)oints on the cross-section, change of location being obtained bv moving the car along the cable. MASITOBA BTDROaRAPBlC SVRTET 25 SESSIONAL PAPER No. 25f Cable Carrier Station. At variou.s points throuKhout the province there are streams of too great a depth for measurements by wading, and without suitably located bridges. In such cases what are termed "cable carrier stations" are established. The installation may be described as follows: A galvanized iron pulley is attached to a tree or post on each side of the river and directly opposite the ends of the section, and through these a light steel cable is rove. The meter is suspended from a device which can be made to travel along this cable by manipulating it from either shore. To observe the velocity in the stream at any point the meter is first moved to the desired vertical and then lowered to the desired point by means of the usual suspension cable. The soundings are made by replacing the meter with the .mounding weight, and operating it in the same way. For streams up to 100 feet in width tins method of obtaining measurements has proved very satisfactorv. Wadixg Stations. Where wading stations are established, a tagged line is stretched across the stream at the sections, the tags indicating the various verticals. The ob.server, while standing in the stream, obtains the velocities at the different points in the section, care being taken to stand to one side ;ind below the meter in order that eddies caused may lutt influen<'e the reading. Boat Stations. Bridges are not always available or suitably located for use as metering stations, nor is it always feasible to erect a cable or cable carrier station owing to excessive width of section, low banks, or possible interference by passing boats. What is termed a "boat st.ation" is then made use of. Several .stations of this description are in use by this survey. At a boat station the method adopted is to stretch a stay line or rope across the river about two or three feet above the water surface and just above the section. A tagged line, upon which the intervals for the section are indicated, is also stretched across the river anil directly on the section. The measurements are made in the usual way from a boat which is held at the desired location on the section by means of the stav line. PREPARATION OF DATA. The compilation of the data gathered calls for considerable time and study, for the gathering of the data such as metering and gauge heights is but one phase in the i)rocess of arriving at the final estimates of daily discharge and total run-off of a stream. The first step to be taken in estimating the daily discharge for each station is the construction of a discharge curve. From the results of the meterings, points are plotted to <'o-ordinates, the ordinates being the gauge heights observed at the time of metering, and the abscissa; the cor- responding discharge in cubic feet per second. Through tliese plotted points a smooth curve is drawn, this is known as the "discharge curve." "Mean velocity" and "area" curves are also constructed for the station. The points on the cur^e.s have ii.> oidiiialtB the gauge lieiglits ohscrvtd, and as ai)sci.ssie the corresponding mean velocity and cross-sectional area of the stream, respectively. From a study of the "mean velocity" and "area" curves, points not defined on the discharge curve may l>v closely approximated. 26 OEPARTMEXT OF THK ISTKRIOR 6 GEORGE V, A. 1916 Where tlie stream bottom at any gaugiiiR station is permanent, or chanKes vor>- slowly, ane ai)])iied to the gauge lieight for the days intervening bt>lween those of actual measurements can lie oi>taiiied. The corrcciid discharges are then easily deriveil. Hol.STKK Mktmoi). In the H<(l:-ter method the discharge measurements for the entire year are plotted, :is for a discharge curve. The jioints plotted are then considered consecutively, and usually two or more curves are so defined. Where conditions change r:ii)idly, there is practically a new curve for each d:iy. To obtain the daily discharges a standard rating curve is used. For davs on which there are discharge measurements, the curve j)asses through the plotted points. To define the i)osition of the curve for intervening days, the consecutive points ari' joined and the line divided into parts of ecpial length, corresponding to the number of intervening days. By passing the standard curve through the points so defined, the discharge for the corres|)onding ilay is determined by api)lying till' gauge height observed for that day, \\"i\\\ the iliscliarge curve defined, the next step is the construction of a rating table; this will dejiend upon certain laws relating to the flow of water in oiien cii.'innels, which are as follows:- - 1. The iiisch;irgc will remain I'onstant when the conditions at or near the station, known as the station control, are constant. 2, Till' discharge at the station will always bi tiie same for each >tage provided aiwiiys ih.'it the slope of the stream remains constant at such stage, '.\. The discharge is a function of and, under normal conditions increases with the stage. In pre])aring the rating table the discharge for each difference in gauge height of one-tenth or one-half tenth of a foyt, depending on the size of the stream, is taken from ihi" curve, ;ind these differences are so a described, the facts as to the drainage basin to which they belong are given, and the miscellaneous readings which have been taken at that station are listed. The description of all stations includes general information such as location of the gauge, equipment, location of initial point on the section, bench-marks, etc.; in short, a (lescription such as '.juUl enable interested persons to locate the station with the least possible difficulty. .\ short history of the operation of the station covering any changes in the location of the gauge, section, or equipnicnt made during the time of its operation is also given. The discharge table gives the results of the discharge measurements made from time to time l)v the hydrographers. since the installation of the station. It includes the (late of the measurements, the name of the hydrogra])her, the gauge height at the time of measurement, the area of the section, the mean velocity and the discharge in second-feet. The daily gauge height and discharge table gives the (h.ily height of the water surface at the gauge as observ^'d by the gauge reader. Tlie-^e observations are generally made once a day but in some cases, where the records are of particular value, the readings are taken twice a day, and the mean of the two is given in the gauge height table. The daily mean di.scharge, as given \i> the tabic, i.s arrived at by applying the gauge height observed to the rating tal>le for the station, and this figure is taken as being the rate or mean daily discharge in cubic feet i)er second. In the table of monthly and yearly dis.'harges the following are given l)oth for e.ach month and for the year or period covered by the records; the maximum and minimum daily discharge, the mean discharge ill cubic f(>et per second, the run-off in cubic fe(>t jicr .second per s(|uare mile the rM»(-o^r depth in inches on drainage area, and the totul run-off in acre-feet.

Mention should also be made of the hearty co-operation of the officials of the Lake of the Woods Milling C'omjiany, the Kenor:i Municipal Plant, and the engineering staff of the Hydro-Hlectric Power Commission of the province of Ontario, in gathering data relative to the Lake of the Woods outlets. 28 DEPARTMENT OF THE lyTEKlOR 6 GEORGE V, A. 1910 SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS. The records contained in the report are the result of investigations carried on by the survey since its inception in 1912. Some stations have for various reasons been discontinued, while others have been established, the net result being a marked increase in the number of stations operated and, when the streams where miscellaneous readings are secured are considered, it will be seen that the southern part of the province is now well covered. In the northern part of the province the work is being extended as oppor- tunity offers and occasion arises, though, as far as possible, the need of stream flow data should be anticipated. It is recomm«'nded that in view of the necessity of anticipating the require- ment of data, that the work be extended to cover as much of the northern part of the province as possible. This extension will necessarily depend t« a very great extent upon the accessibility of the various rivers and the possibility of securing continuous records. The work instituted on the Nelson should be vigorously carried on and an attempt made to secure a station that will permit of an all-year-round rating. In addition, slope gauges should be established, and if possible a suitable site for an automatic gauge selected and the same installed for the purpose of securing a rating of the river. The storage possibilities of Lac Seul should be looked into and an automatic gauge installed at some point on that lake, so that records of its variation in stage may be secured. The necessity of some investigation into the underground water resources of the province is a question that is becoming pressing. The year 1914 was one of exceptionally low flow, and where the communities and individuals were dependent upon surface water for a domestic supply, hardship was experienced. A careful survey of the ground-water supply should make valuable and reliable information on the subject available to the general public, and as it is so closely allied to the gathering of data regarding the surface supply, it is suggested that it be carried out by this survey as soon as the necessary funds and assistance can be made available.

Sufficient meterings were obtaim-d to define a discharge curve over the range in stage given above, and froni this curve the daily discharges were estimated. Accuracy'— Th*' discharge measurements define the curve very well between the limits in elevation 497 and 5(H) -6; beyond these limits the curve is not well defined. It is necessary to obtain the discharge in both the International and Cana- dian channels in order that the actual discharge from Namakan lake may be ascertained. Owing to the presence of Kettle falls a short distance below the section the backwater effect under winter «'onditi"ns was negligible.

Since August, I'.Hl, the estimated discharges are of high accuracy. 1).\II.Y ( ;.\i (iK HKKiiiT .\ND l)is< H.KK.iK. of Haiuv lliver ;it Fort FraiKcs for 191 1. I>>M...|nl» (iauui- l>i- ^ < ;:iui!.'

Location of Section. — On the Rainy river on the downstream side of the C.N.R. bridge below the mouth of the Beaudette river. The initial point of the section is at the northeast corner of the C.N.R. bridge, and is marked at the intersection of the steel work with the top of the Ixiard walk. Records Available. — Daily gauge heights were secured during the open- water period from August 19 to November 27, 1912, and gauge heights at various times during the wintet period up till February 10, 1913. Drainage Area. — The drainage area tributarj' to the Rainy river above this point is approximately 15,000 square miles. Gauge. — A vertical staff gauge fastened to the upstream or west side of the centre pier of the C.N.R. bridge. Zero of gauge is referred to Ontario Depart- ment of Public Works datum.

Drainagr Area- The drainage area above this section is 2fl,4()0 stiuare miles, but owing to the fact tiiat there are several other outlets of the lake of the WcmmIs, this drainage area should not be used in computing run-off. (langt. -When the station was first established a reference point was miirki-d on the northeast corner of the west pier of the bridge, t«» which water levels at the time of metering were referred. This was later replaced by a v«'rtical staff gauge which was referred to W.P.S. datum. Owing to the fact that the discharge past this section depends entirely u|)on the o|M"ration of the Norman ilam, the discharge measurements have Ikhmi referred to the ga irc height at that point, and daily discharges are als«i ref«-rred to the same gauge. Two gauges were establii'sheil alnive the Norman dam, the first being that of the Ontario D.P.W. which was used until August 25, 1«13. On August 20, n)13, a vertical stufi gauge was established by the Manitoba Hydrographic Survey, which was refern-d to the W.P.S. datum. r'/iannW.—There is but one channel for all stages of the river, the average depth over the section being approximately 40 feet under normal conditions. The bed of the river is loose nx-k and boulders but is not subject to appreciable change. The velocity at the section is fairly high, and some eddies are formed due to the section being locateint is practically at lake level the range in stage has not b«'en great, amounting to 2.2 feet. ,4rcMracj/.--The Norman dam, which is located altout 4,000 fo«>t below the statiim, forms the control, and thi* discharge is therefore dependent uiion the manipulation of the dam; considerable range in disch.irge may occur for th- same gauge height recorded at the section.

Trihultirlrs. — The tributaries of the Winuii)eg river are. with one exception, of minor importance, having for the most part small drainagr* areas. The exception is. however, of the greatest importance, as nearly one-half of the t(jtal drainage area above the junction is tributary to it. This river is the English, which enters the Winnipeg from the north, just within the province of Ontario. The other tril)Utaries of the Winnipeg river are: the Wliiteshell river, which joins the main river in the lake-like expanse known as .lessie lake; the White- mouth, which enters just below the Seven Sisters rajjids; anil the Bird river, which Hows into l>ac du Bonnet.

Location of Section. — The section on the south channel is located about l.')0 feet above the second falls, reached from tln> i)ortage at the Hudson's Hay store.

Th' 102 nEPART\lf:\T OF THE IMFRIOR e GEORGE V, A. 1016 Location of section. — The metering section is located about 250 f<'et above the crest of the Slave falls, which is about 4 miles below the city of Winnipeg's plant at Point du Bois. The initial point is a chisel murk on the rock marked by paint, on the right bank near the cable tower. Records available. — By referring the meterings made to the Point du Bois gauge, records of daily discharge have been computed from Januarj', 1907, to October, 1911. Since that date daily discharges based upon records of discharge at Slave falls, referred to the Point du Bois gauge made by the Manitoba Hydrographic Survey, are available. Drainage area. — The drainage area above Otter fulls is 50,500 square miles, and above Slave falls the area is 49,700 square miles. Gauge. — A vertical staff gauge nailed to a 4-inch by 6-inch timber braced in a crevice of the rock about 75 feet downstream from the section on the right bank. It is referred to B.-M. No. i89, W.P.S. 200 feet above the initial point. Channel. — The channel is straij ht for 100 feet above and 350 feet below the gauge at nearly all stages. The bed is of solid rock witli a few large boulders at the left side of the section. It is permanent and all the water at all stages is confined to the section. Discharge Measurements. — Meterings are made from a cable car running on a cable stretched across the section. Meterings covering practically the complete range in stage have been taken. Accuracy. — The discharge curve is well defined over the range in gauge height, both when plotted to the Slave Falls and Point du Bois gauges. On account of the drop at the falls below the station there is no possibility of back- water effect. Also the section is an open-water one at all seasons, so that the open-water rating applies the year round. The section is a verj' favourable one, and the accuracy of the records is high.

The drainage area of the Pembina is 4,1S(I s(iuare miles. 1.440 stpiare miles ■ if which are in Dakota, the balance being in Manitoba. In the upper portion itf the river the river Hows through a well-defined valley, especially in that part where it approaches the l>ounilary. Tlie lower part of the river is in typical prairie country, thi' bank> lieing cut sharply down from the >urrouMding country .•ind being composed of clay and sand. The river-bed is of sand, gravel, and cl.iy. the banks ;ire c.-isiiy enMled. and the channel is generally shifting. It varies from 2(1 to IX) feet ui width, but in several places in the upi)er H'acho it widens out into lakes. a> i'elican. Hock, and .'^wan lakes.

Roseau River below Dominion City, Histori/. — The section at Baskerville's farm, while satisfactory, was consid- erably out of the route and entailed a drive of nearly 18 miles. On April 14, 1914, the above station was established by D, B. (low to sui)erse(le it. Location of Section. — The station below Dominion City is about 2,'XK) feet below the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge over the Roseau, and about 2,100 feet below the Canadian Pacific Railway dam on the river. The initial point is a nail in an 8-inch white ash tree blazed and near the toj) of the left bank. Records Available. — A daily gauge height record has been kept since April 14, 1914, and sufficient meterings have been taken to define the discharge curve. Daily discharges have been computed for the station. Drainage Area. — The drainage area is 1,940 square miles. Gauge. — The gauge is a vertical staff fastened to a 2-inch by 4-inch scantling driven into the stream bed and braced. It is located 1,000 feet below the section and is nearer the town, on account of the winding of the river. Channel. — There is only one channel at all stages. The liottom is fairly per- manent; the t)anks are sloping, and not subject to overflow. The channel is straight for 350 feet above the section and for 100 feet below. Dincharge Measurements. — They are made by means of a cablf rurrier, the cable being stretched across the stream, and the meterings are made by sus- pending the meter from it. The meterings cover a range in stage of 5 feet. Accuracij. — The discharge curve is well defined between gauge heights 87-00 and 89-00, and fairlv well defined between gauge heights 89 00 and 92 -TO.

Tiii' nortlicrii houmlary of this area is formed t>y the water- limits eonsist of sheds of the Wiiitemoutli and Seine rivers, wliile its soiitliern the northern slo])e of the watershed of the Roseau river. The west Jjraneh of the river takes its rise in the country lying to the south- east of the town of Woodridjje on the ')ntario i)raneh of the Canadian Northern railway, and is eonfined ehiefly to tp. 3, R. 11 E.P.M. The first 10 miles of its course the river has a southwesterly hearing; from this latter point it flows northwest for about 4 miles, then nearly due south lor 3 miles, then north for about 6 miles. This latter point lies about 2 miles east of the town of Zhoda; from this point it flows through a swampy and marshy country due west for about 18 miles, and then in a northwesterly direction to its mouth at the Red river. The territory drained is generally fiat prairie country, except in the upper reaches, where the land is inclined to be wet and swampy. Nearly all the drainage area is under cultivation, being amongst the oldest settled luud in the province. Rat River at Otterburne. History. — The station was established by S. S. Scovil on May 23, 1912. Location of Section. — The section is on the downstream side of the bridge which cro.sses the Rat at F. X. Joubert's farm, 4 miles from Otterburne by the Canadian Pacific railway, and 2 miles to St. Pierre. The initial point is marked by a spike driven in the south end of the downstream railing. Records arailablc. — A daily gauge-height record for the open-water periods from May 23, 1012. to date, has been kept. During the winter periods an inter- mittent record is ava lable. Estimates of daily discharge have been prepared, based upon the rating curve constructed from the meter records. Drainage Area. — The area drained is about fioO square miles. The basin lies between the Roseau on the south and the Seine and Whitemouth on the north and east. Gauoc— The gauge is a 9-foot vertical staff nailed to a pile 16 feet from the left bank of the section. It is referred to a bench-mark set to arbitrary datum and located on the base of an ash tree 30 feet southwest from the initial point. 156 DEPAh-TUEST OF THE ISTEKIOR 6 QEORGE V. A. 1916 Chiintut. -Al)ove the station it is straight for 200 fwt and for 100 ffeft below. There is one channel at all stHges. The bottom is of clay, ami liable to shift. Discharge Measurements. — They are made from the downstream side of the bridge. A range in stage of 8-4 feet has been defined on the rating curve Under winter conditions it has not been possible to obtain a rating. Diversions.— The Canadian Pacific railway have constructed a dam above the station and use the pond created as a source of sui)ply. Under low-water conditions it is reported they take the whole How of the river. Arruracy. — From gauge height 88-30 to i»2-40 the discharge curve is well defineii; from 92-40 to 96-70 it is fairly well defined. Not possible to define a discharge curve for winter conditions.

In the wooded section, or the upper part of the drainage area, the valley is well defined and narrow, the rise from tie river in some places reaching an elevation of 250 fet-t al)Ove the water level. In the lower part of the river basin the land is neariy all under cultpittion, the soil is rich, but in the valley bottom it is subject to ove.How. It flows through the most densely iM)pulated part of the province, the three largest cities, Portage hi Prairie, Brandon, and Winnipeg, being built upon its banks. This river is important as a source tif water supply, and as a means of drainage and sewage disposal in a district where the natural water supply is somewhat limited. In order that a study may properiy be made of its regimen antl ilata for various purposes Im> gathered, several gauging stations have been established. All have not been in continuous operation, but discharge records have been obtained at the following places on the river:— 1, Millwood; 2, Brandon; 3, Headingly; 4, St. James. Tribulariet.—The tributaries of the Assiniboine river in order from source to mouth are:— 1, Shell river; 2, Qu' Appelle river; 3, Birdtail creek; 4, Little Saskatchewan river; 5, Souris river; 6, Cypress river.

For winter conditions, measurements are made from the ice. Accuracy. — The discharge curve is only fairly well defined over a range in gauge height of 3 feet, extending from 88 5 to 91-.'). Between 8i»() and 89-5 the curve is not sufficiently well defined to admit of accurate estimated discharge.

It heads in the extreme northern end of lake Dauphin and flow-: generally north for a distance of about 21 miles to the month. The I'ork and I'ishinj; rivers a e tributaries that have their sources on the eastern slope of the Due' mountains. .\11 the drainage basin of the Mo.ssv, with the exception of th^t supplietl bv these rivers, is gathered bv the rivers tributary to lake Dauphin. These are the Valley, Turtle, Ochre, Wilson, and Vermilion rivers. The upper part of the basin is well timbered, while the lower part is prairie country, and used extensively for mixed farming. The banks of the Mossy vary between .) and l.i feet in height and are of clav overlying a bed of gravel. The river varies in width from 120 to 200 feet. and has been considerably improved by dredging. The country adjacent to the river is very well settled, especially on the west side. The town of \Vinnipego-i-, with a population of t>'^" pcoplv, is .situated at the mouth of the river, and the town of Dauphin is the chief centre in the district.

Hintory.— This station wa.s establishoil on July 28, 1914. by W. J. Ireland and superseded the one at Lacey's farm, owing to the difficulty in securinR a gauKO reader at that point. Location of section.— The meter section is located on Wilson's farm, 2i miles northeast of Fork river. It is marked by a blazed poplar tree which stands on the left bank just below the metering section. The initial point is located by a nail driven in the post supporting the cable of the section on the left hand bank. Records Available.— Baiiy gauge height records have been kept from July 3, 1914, to the end of the same year. Estimates of dailv discharge have been computed for the period July 3 to November 16. 1914. " There is not sufficient data to compute the discharge under ice conditions which obtain for the remainder of the year. Drat nay e Area. — The drainage area is 3.9,")() s(|uare miles. Gauge. — The gauge is a 6-foot vertical staff enamelled gauge fastened to a plank driven in the bed of the stream and braced to the left shore, it is 800 feet below the metering station and just inside of the boundary fence of the section. Channel.— Thv channel is straight for 1.50 feet above and 300 feet below the section. The river is confined to a single channel under all stages. The bed of the river is of gravel and permanent. The banks are high and covered with scrub but not liable to overflow. Dixchnrge M4remtntft. — Meterings are made by means of a cable carrier running on a cable stretched across the river. Accuracy. — The discharge curve is fairly well defined over the range in stage covered by the meterings. 2.')K~l.=i§ 2ia nKi'Mminyr or riir. istkriok a- e QEORQE V, A 010 DiHCHAROE Mkasirkmknts of Moxsv RiviT Ix'low Fork HiviT, 1914.

The ValU-y river is a triliiitary of iakt- Daupliiii; it rises on tlie western nlo|M' of the Diiek mountains, Hows south alonn the foot of the western slope of these mountainh, then turns east and flows between the Duck ami Hiding mountains and continues this generally easterly course to its mouth. Then- are two tributaries to the VuUey which are of fair size, these are Short creek, which rises on the slope of Hiding mountains, and the DriftinK river, which joins the Valley 3 miles west of Valley River station on the Canadian Northern Railway. The valley between the Riding and Duck niountains, through which the river flows and from which it takes its name, is about 100 feet deep and from 700 to 2,500 feet wide. The river at ordinary summer stages has a width of between 1(K) and 200 feet. The river-bed is comjMJsed of gravel and bouhlers. tl'.e banks being of clay which overlies a gravel and boulder bed. The upper part of the drainage area is practically all within the Duck Mountain forest reserve, where considerable stands of spruce, jack pine, and poplar are to be found. In the iniinediate vicinity of the river little clearing has been done, though in the lower part of the valley, and somewhat back from the river, farming is carried on to a considerable extent. : VALLEY KIVER AT VALLEY RIVER. Hlxlory. This station was established on October 25, 1912, by W. G. Wonlen, and has been in operation since that time. Location of Seclioii. — The metering section is located on the downstream side of the Canadian Northern Railway bridge, crossing the Valley river 1,.')00 feet north of the railroad station in that town, and 1.50 feet upstream frt)m the traffic bridge. The initial point is an arrow carved and painted on the down- .stream side of the bridge at the south end. Records Arailable. — Records of daily gauge heights have been secured for the greater part of the period October 25. 1912, to the end of 1914. Estimates of daily discharge have been computed for the foUowing periods: October 2.i to November 17, 1912; .\pril 4 to November 10, 1913; and April 25 to November It), 1914. There is not sufficient information to arrive at estimates of daily discharge under winter conditions. Drninnge Area. — The area tributary to the Valley river above the station is 1,028 MiUurr milf><. (lauye. — A 12-foot vertical staff enamelled gauge is fa.stened to a 2-inch by 4-inch scantling which is spiked to the bridge abutment, 24t) feet from the initial point on the metering section.

Cross Lake rapids. Red Rock rapids, and Clrand rapids occurnng in this stretch of the river. In Manitoba the river has an average width of 1,000 feet, though above Grand Rapids a minimum width of 500 feet occurs. The river bottom above Cedar lake is composed of clay and gravel; below that point limestone ridges occur and the Iwttom is covered with tH)ulders. Valuable timlier is to l)e found along the river at various points, but, generally speaking, as the lake is approached the growth Incomes stunted, being for the most part second-growth. Above (Jrand rapids the river is navigable at certain stages, and steamers have bee.i operate/ory.— The station on the Saskatchewan river at Pas was first estab- lished by W. r.. Worden on October 21, 1912. On Mav 27, 1913, a new section at Pas was establi.shed by E. Bankson. and this station has been in operation smce that date. Location of Mctkm.—Thf first station wa« located about a quarter of a mile below the site of the Hudson Bay Railwav bridge at Pas. On May 27, 1913, this section was moved upstream to the downstream side of the Hudson 25f— 16 226 nEPARTMEXT OF THE lyTERIOB \\u e OEORQE V, A. 1016 Bay Railway bridge at Pas. The initial point is located on the hand-rail near the south end of the bridge on the downstream side, and is vertically above the river face of the south abutment. It is painted white and marked "0+00 LP." Records .4 toilnbte.— Records of daily gauge hei ,ht were kept at various intervals from the early part of 1911 till the end of 1914. From October 21, 1912, to the end of 1914, the gauge heights are rather more continuous. Esti- mates of daily discharge have been computed for the periods covered by daily gauge heights from October 21, 1912, to the end of 1914. Drainage Area. — The drainage area tributary to the Saskatchewan above Pas comprises the greater portion of Western Canada lying between parallels 49 and 54 north latitude and between the Rocky mountains and lake Winnipeg. The total area is 149,500 square miles. Gauge.— A 9-foot vertical staff enamelled gauge has been fastened to the downstream side of the first pier from the south bank and 10 feet above the meter- ing section. The gauge is referred to Department Public Works, No. 79, which is a cross on a copper plug set on the west side of the south abutment of the Hudson Bay Railway bridge, and is about 3 feet from the ground level. It is marked D.P.W, B.M. No. 79. Channel.— The river is di>'ided by the bridge piers into six channels at low water and eight channels at high water. For 1,300 feet above and 2,700 feet below the section the channel is straight. The bed of the river is covered with gravel and small boulders but at the section the stream bottom is somewhat shifting. The right bank is high and not liable to overflow, the left bank is low and liable to overflow at high stages. Discharge Measurements. — The discharge meu.Hurements were taken from a boat on the first section established. Since May, 1913, the meterings have been taken from the ilownstream side of the Hudson Buy Railway bridge. Accuracy. — The discharge curve for the station is well defined Ix'tween gauge heights 818 .') and 822-7, between 822-7 and 828 the discharge curve exhibits all the characteristics whit-h are |>eculiar to certain large rivers, in that tiie discharge for the same gauge height varies according as the river is on a rising <>r a falling stage, .\bove gjiuge height 827 and below H18- 5 the dis- charge i-iirve is fairly well ch-fini'd.

The hydraulic gradient for this section is quite perceptiMe. The river is confined to one channel at all stages, the bed of the stream is of sand and gravel and fairly permanent. The bunks are high, covered with scrub, and are not liable to overflow. Discharge Measiiriments. — Discharge measurements are made from a 2()-foot skiff which is located on the section by means of a tagged line stretched across the river. Accuracy. — The discharge curve is only fairly well defined between the extreme limits of gauge heights, which are 7S(i(l to 780-4. ( )wing to the hydraulic gradient the section may be considered an open-water one, as very little ice form.s at this point during the winter .season.

It is the most imjH)rtiint tril)utur>' of the lake enter- inn from the east, witirthe t'xception of the Winnipeg river. It has a drainage area estimated to he 7,800 square miU-s, and a length of approximately 300 n.ih's. The headwaters lie near the height of land which forms the south and w»it limits of the Severn and Albany drainage basins. Many lakes are to be found in the district, though their areas are not well d-fined, as they are in un.-'Urveyed territory. The country drained is typical of the Laurentian formation, abounding in muskegs and swamps, and tlie rock frequently outcrops. These rock out- crops form barriers across the river and are the rea.son for the numerous falls and rapids to br found on the rivi-r. Somp 52 falls and rapids (jccur betwtM'n the first fall, ") mills fnuii the mouth, and Family lake, and these vary in height or drop between '.i or 4 feet and 40 feet. Family lake also forms the s,>urc<' of the Pigeon river, which parallels the course of the Hereiis and empties into lake Winnipeg a few miles south of the mouth of the former river. The Berens river was examined by a party sent out by the Manitoba Hydrographic Survey to determine its power possibilities. This survey revealed the fact that there are a number of feasible sites on the river. Tl;^ country is not heavily Umbered, but is covered with a growth of small spruce, poplar, bircli and scrub oak. There is little merchantable timber to be found along the ri\er. ir.tv/rofli HrinuHiK.ii'Hir mi-ktst a«r SESSIONAL PAPER No. 26( DiMi..

General. — The Nelson river forms the outlet of hike Winnipeg flowing through the central portion of northern Manitjhii and emptying into Hudson bay at Port Nelson. The Nelson river discharges all the water collected by lake Winnipeg from an immense drainage urea, and forms one of the ))rincipal systems of the North Ameri»an contirem, the basin oompriiing an area of 450,000 square miles. The territory draineil varies from the open prairie forming the great central plain to the rugged and magnificent country found in the Rockies; between these extremes of physical characteristics all gradations may be found in the basin. The vegetation to be founil covers us wide a range. The western part of the drainage area is practically devoid of lakes, but in the south and eastern sections are to be fount! stmie of the largest fresh-water l)odies on the continent. These lakes are so situated in relation to the Nelson river that the maximum natural storage effect is exerted upon the flow of that river; in ccnsequence, the maximum dischurge may be expt^cted to approxi- mate do.sely the meun dischurge. The river has a length of 4H0 miles, and in this distance the drop aggregates 712 feet. The potential power possibilities of the river are therefore apparent. In the upper reaches the river has the appearance of a chain of lakes connected by short stretches of river which are interrupted by falls and rapids. These char- acteristics which hold for the upper 250 miles of river gradually change as the 246 DEPARTU^VT OF TUB INTERIOR 6 GEORGE V, A. 1916 mouth is approached, :he drop in the river not being as diHtinct but more in the nature of swifts and fiat rapids, though the banks become high as the bay is approaciied. The first expanse below the lake Winnipeg outlet is known as Playgreen lake, below which there are two channels known us East and West rivers. Sea falls is to be found on East river, and the latter then expands into Pipestone lake. The junction of these two branches occurs in Cross lake. Below that point are Sipiwesk, Split lake, and (iuU lake. The rapids and falls in order are Ebb and Flow rapids, Whitemud falls. Bladder rapids. Over the Hill, Red Rock, and Chain of Rocks rapids; Manitou or Devil's rapids. Grand rapids, Chain of Islands rapids, all being above Split lake. Below Split lake ■'.re Gull, Kettle, Long Spruce, and Limestone rapids. The country adjacent to the Nelson river is practically unsettled, though on account of the building of the Hudson Bay raihvay there has been considerable activity along the river. The timber growth is scattered, including spruce, birch, and poplar, and it is claimed that the clay soil to be found is ver>' fertile. A n oimaissanc"' survey of the river was made by the late W'illiam Ogilvie in 1910 for the Dominion Water Power Branch; also, discharg measurements were ot)tained. After garnering miscellaneous records in 1912-13, a metering station was estal)lished in 1914 by the Manitoba Hj'drographic Survey above Manitou rajjids, and tliis lias hc«'n operated since that time. Nelson Rivkk .\t M.witoi' R.\pids. M Histonj.- — This station wa- established l)y G. ,1. Lamb on July 18, 1914. Location of Section. — The meter section is located at a point 3| miles upstream from Manitou Landing, and 4 miles al)ove the Shojl rapids. The initial point is marked on a sloping face of rock northeast of the gauge and is a wood"n plug driven in a U-inch hole drilled in the rock. Rironh Avaitahlc. — Records of daily gauge height were secured from July 2 to October 14, 1914, and a number of discharge measurements were taken over the same period. Dniinmjc Arm. — The drainage area tril)utary to the Nelson river is 4.")0,(MK) s.'iuare miles, of which 24,000 square miles lies below Manitou rapids. The river drains lake Winnipeg into Hudson Bay. Practically all Canadian territory lying south ^f latitude W.\ and between the summit of the Rockies and lake Sui)eri.'>r is tributary to tliis river. (iamjc. — The gauge is ;i vertical staff enamelled gang" fastened to a 6-inch spruce i)ost driven in the bed of the river, and braced; it is furtiier strengthened by being wi'igiited witli large i)oul(icrs. The gauge is referred to a bench-mark which is marked by a triangle painte.-' The meterings are made from a canoe held on the section liy means of a stav line stretched across the river ar.d supported on floats. .Iffi/ror//. -No daily discharge estin.ates have been arrivetl at from the gauge heights and discharge measurements, as it has been found impossible to define a rcsruiar rating curve r due to the prevalence of jijgh winds.

In a number of cases where stations were established, after one or several meterings were taken, it was found that the location was unfavourable, either on account of the difficulty in obtaining an observer for the daily gauge heights or on account of the physical features obtaining at the station preventing accurate records being taken. In other cases, suffi.-ient information was not obtained to properly define a discharge curve, though the records would indicate that a curve may be defined by fuller information. In this case the gauge heights are on file, and when the necessary additional data are secured, estimates of daily discharge will be made. Records are published under the heading "Miscellaneous Meterings," where discharges obtained untler above conditions may be of some immediate value.
