Pursuant to the provisions of this act an agreement was entered into in November, 1913, between the Railroad Commission and the United States Geological Survey whereby the collection of stream flow data should be car- ried on as a cooperative measure. The United States Geological Survey agreed to pay a part of the expense of installing and maintaining gaging stations and publishing records. Accordingly, a district engineer of the Survey was detailed to this work, with headquarters at Madison, and he and his assistants have cooperated with the engi- neering staff of this Commission in establishing gaging stations, conducting stream measurements and collecting the various types of data described in this report. A very thorough investigation of all available records of stream flow made prior to the establishment of gaging stations under this act has been conducted and the data thus obtained, together with the results secured since the stations were established, are published herein. The re- port further contains a complete gazetteer of the rivers of Wisconsin. Pursuant to the provisions of this act requiring an investigation of all existing dams and franchises, there is submitted with this report a complete list of franchises granted by legislative acts, arranged by counties. This list gives a brief description of the provisions of each franchise with the reference to the act under which the franchise was granted. For the purpose of investigating existing dams as required by this act, the state was divided into five dis- tricts or drainage basins: namely, the Mississippi river basin, the Wisconsin river basin, the Lake Superior basin, the Lake Michigan basin and the Rock river basin. Field work connected with the examination of dams has been practically completed in the Mississippi river basin, the Wisconsin river basin and the Lake Superior basin, 8 Railroad Commission Report with a small amount of work done in the other two basins. This remaining territory will be covered and these investigations completed during the coming season. The total amount spent by the Railroad Commis- sion in this investigation from July 1, 1913, to Septem- ber 30, 1914, is $20,613.53, of which $9,492.55 was ex- pended in installing and maintaining gaging stations and other investigations relative to the collection of stream flow data; and $11,120.98, was spent in investigations connected with the construction, maintenance and opera- tion of dams. The amount spent by the United States Geological Survey, by the United States Indian Service and by various private individuals will be found in that part of the report relating to the hydrometric investigations. On Water Powers to the Legislature PART I Investigations Relating To The Construction, Main- tenance and Operation of Dams and Other Obstructions In Navigable Waters* Inspection of Plans Each application made to the Railroad Commission for a franchise or permit to build or rebuild a dam across any navigable stream must be accompanied by complete plans and specifications for the structure. These plans are carefully checked for stability of structure and flood capacity. If found satisfactory they are approved, one copy being sent to the applicant and one retained in the Commission's file. If not found satisfactory the appli- cant is required to make necessary changes in his design to satisfy the Commission that the structure will be in all respects capable of serving its purpose. In checking such plans it is necessary to make a thorough examina- tion of the stresses in the various members, including foundation, due to the water, wind and ice pressure. Investigation of the drainage area above the dam is made to determine the necessary flood capacity. This investi- gation involves the topographical as well as geological structure of this area. Usually these investigations re- quire a visit to the site of the dam before construction is commenced, with one or more visits during the course of construction and a final inspection before the dam is ap- proved for operation. BENCH MARKS At the various points under investigation by the Commission where dams are involved bench marks are established at or near the site and so located that likeli- hood of disturbance is a minimum. These bench marks consist of an aluminum bronze tablet set in a concrete pier which is usually constructed by a representative of the Commission. These piers are of a sufficient depth to insure stability of the bench marks. Two such bench marks are established at each dam or site, one usually projecting some distance above the ground in order that ,10 Railroad Commission Report it may readily be found and the other, located some dis- tance from this, is concealed under the surface. These bench marks are located with respect to some known object and levels run from them to various points on the dam. These bench marks, will be referred to the bench marks of the United States Geological Survey when such are available within a reasonable distance. COMPLAINTS AND PETITIONS Numerous complaints are received from time to time concerning the height of water maintained by owners of dams as well as complaints of damages resulting from high water or from alleged improperly constructed dams. These complaints usually involve rather extensive investigations as to the nature of the complaint or damages resulting and the rights and interests of various parties. Cases in- volving alleged unlawful height of dams resulting in dam- age to riparian owners usually require surveys of the dam site, the pond and all lands affected by the flowage of the dam. In addition it is necessary to investigate rainfall and runoff conditions as well as the adequacy of the dam with respect to strength and flood capacity. Examina- tions are made of the shoreline above the dam, if possible, at various stages of water, to determine the effect of high water, waves and ice upon the banks and im- provements. Investigation of the legal rights of the own- ers and the riparian owners must also be conducted, as well as a study of the uses to which the dam is put and the effect upon such uses which may result from an order fixing within certain limits the head of water that may be maintained at the dam. Following is a short statement of formal cases which have been brought before this Commission up to Decem- ber 1, 1914, with a short description of the nature of the investigation made and the status of the case: Height of Rest Lake Dam, Chippewa & Flambeau Improvement Co., Vilas County November 1912 Under chapter 640, laws of 1911, the Ghippewa & Flambeau Improve- ment Company obtained a charter to maintain a series of reservoirs, one of which is controlled by the Rest Lake dam in the town of Flambeau, Vilas county. On Water Powers to the Legislature 1 1 This dam was originally used for logging purposes. There are some sixty miles of shorelines on the various lakes and thoroughfares affected by the water above this dam. On these shores are situated numerous summer resorts and summer homes, the owners of which petitioned that the maxi- mum and minimum levels of these lakes be so regulated as to cause a mini- mum amount of damage to their property and other interests. The Improvement Company requested as wide a range of variation as possible in order that the best use might be made of the reservoirs for storage and power purposes. Several hearings were held, and extensive investigations made, extend- ing over a considerable period of time, after which the Commission issued an order fixing the minimum and maximum stages of water on the Rest Lake chain of lakes. Standard bench marks were established at the dam. Obstructions to Navigation in Rock River, Janesville June 1913 An investigation to determine the extent of obstructions to navigation in the Rock river, in the city of Janesville, was made on petition of certain citizens of Janesville. Soundings were taken to determine the location of sandbars, if any existed. Bridge piers, foundations, and accumulation of debris in the river were also located. A hearing was held on this matter, and the Commission reported to the governor that obstructions to navigation existed in said Rock river. Horicon Marsh Drainage, Horicon and Mayville August 1913 On complaint of certain freeholders, taxpayers and residents in Dodge county, and the cities of Horicon and Mayville, who allege that certain dredging operations in the Rock river through the city of Horicon and vici- nity have caused the water in this stream to become stagnant, an investi- gation was made by the Commission. The city of Horicon passed a drain- age ordinance, granting the right to a certain drainage company to straighten, deepen and maintain the channel of the Rock river through the city of Horicon. This ordinance was objected to on the part of the petitioners, who claim that the dredging company had no legal right to continue the operations of dredging. A hearing was held by the Commission and after all evidence was submitted the case was dismissed. Obstruction to Navigation, Beaver Dam Creek, City of Beaver Dam September 1913 Upon petition, the Railroad Commission investigated obstructions to navigation existing in Beaver Dam creek in the city of Beaver Dam. It was found that there are a number of piers used as building founda- tions located in the creek from ten to fifty feet from shore, while several buildings project a considerable distance out over the water. One of these buildings which extends the entire distance across the river is not over three feet above the surface of the water, and in times of freshets the water comes very close to the fl'oor of this building. Two hearings were held in the city of Beaver Dam, and the Commiss- ion's findings have been submitted to the governor. 12 Railroad Commission Report Safety of Dams, Wisconsin River Tomahawk and Above, November 1913 Upon petition, the Railroad Commission made an investigation of the various dams on the Wisconsin river, at Tomahawk and above, to determine if said dams were safe and capable of carrying off floods which occur in that vicinity. In order to make an intelligent report on this matter it was neces- sary to make a rather complete study of all features of the drainage area affecting the flow of water through these dams in addition to an exhaustive study of rainfall and runoff records. It is believed that there is no urgent need of action in this matter. New Richmond Roller Mills, Application for Franchise for Dam, Apple River November 1913 C. W. Arnquist, J. M. Arnquist and Kate Tolien, Application for Franchise for Dam, Apple River December 1913 The New Richmond Roller Mills Company, a Wisconsin corporation, filed with the Commission an application "for franchise to construct and maintain a dam and power house to develop hydro-electric power not in excess of 250 horsepower" on the Apple river in St. Croix county, Wis. C. W. Arnquist, J. M. Arnquist and Kate Tolien objected to the grant- ing of this franchise to the roller mills and in turn petitioned for a franchise to construct a possibly conflicting dam farther downstream. The New Rich- mond Roller Mills Company entered objection to this latter petition. As the same parties were interested in both cases, the two were heard together. Engineering investigations have been made and a decision will be ren- dered in this case in the near future. Northwestern Iron Company, Regulation and Control of Level and Flow of Water of Rock River, Mayville February 1914 The Northwestern Iron Company, a Wisconsin corporation, owns and operates two dams in the city of Mayville. It is alleged by certain citizens of Mayville that the lower dam of the Northwestern Iron Company has not sufficient flood capacity, and due to lack of opportunity for ice to pass over and through this dam in the spring, ice jams are formed which cause serious floods within said city of May- ville. It is also alleged that this dam has not sufficient gate capacity to carry off water in flood time without seriously damaging the property of the riparian owners in the city of Mayville. On these grounds the petitioners requested an investigation by the Commission. Investigations have been completed and hearings held by the Commis- sion. A decision will be made in the near future. On Water Powers to the Legislature 13 Approval of Plans, Burkhardt Milling & Electric Co., Willow River, Burkhardt March 1914 Plans were submitted for a reinforced concrete hollow arch dam, to be constructed in Willow river, to replace a wooden dam located some distance upstream. Plans called for a dam forty feet in height. This would give a working head at the power plant of ninty-five feet. The site was visited and plans examined after which certain specified changes were recommended in the interest of safety and stability. However, as the company failed to make application for a franchise as required by law, the plans were not ap- proved. Later complaint was made to the governor by riparian owners that the stream was about to be obstructed, and on request of the governor an investigation was made by the Commission which developed the fact that the stream was being obstructed by the construction of this dam without a franchise, whereupon the facts of the case were laid before the governor. Centralia Pulp and Waterpower Company, South Side Dam, Grand Rapids April 1914 The dam owned and operated by the Centralia Pulp & Waterpower Company of Grand Rapids, prior to its reconstruction was a timber dam with a timber crib spillway. It is located about two miles south of Grand Rapids on the Wisconsin river. Plans for a new dam to be constructed in place of part of the old tim- ber structure were submitted to the Railroad Commission for approval. The new construction is a reinforced concrete dam thirteen feet in height, equip- ped with eleven electrically operated tainter gates. Plans for this dam were approved. Approval of Plans for Dam, Poynette April 1914 The village of Poynette submitted for the approval of the Commission plans for a reinforced concrete dam with a head of about twelve feet, to create a pond, to be used for park purposes, and for the operation of a grist mill. These plans were checked and certain important changes recommended in the interest of stability and safety. These recommendations having been adopted by the village, the plans were approved and the dam built accord- ingly. The masonry construction has been inspected by the Commission, but final inspection awaits completion of the earthen embankments. Bench marks have been established at the dam. Browntown Dam, Level of Water, Browntown May 1914 Under petition of certain riparian owners along Skinner creek an ivest- igation was made of the flowage conditions above the Browntown dam in the village of Browntown. Skinner creek is a branch of the Pecatonica river. It was alleged by the petitioners that on account of the dam being main- tained at an unlawful height, large tracts of land are flooded, causing ex- cessive damage to the property of the various riparian owners aforemen- tioned. 14 Railroad Commission Report The investigation consisted of a survey of the dam to determine the head maintained, and also a survey of the pond and the land affected. Sev- eral hearings were held in this matter after which additional investigations were found necessary. Another hearing is requested by the petitioners. Greenwood Dam, Washout, Black River June 1914 An investigation was made of flood conditions on the Black river at Black River Falls and above, which caused the failure of the Greenwood and Hemlock dams. Recommendations were made in the interest of safety and stability which should be followed when these dams are rebuilt. Shoto Dam, Washout, West Twin River, Manitowoc County June 1914 Upon petition by the town board of the town of Shoto, the Commission held a hearing and investigated the conditions surrounding the failure of this dam which occurred in June, 1914. If this dam is rebuilt the Commission will probably require that plans be submitted for approval. They will then be investigated for stability and flood flow capacity. Wisconsin-Minnesota Light & Power Co., Levels to be Maintained in Bear Lake, Haugen July 1914 Bear Lake is located in Barren and Washburn counties. A dam is being maintained at the outlet of this lake for the purpose of creating stor- age for regulating the flow of water in the Chippewa river. It is alleged by certain land owners along the shores of Bear Lake and others interested in the matter that this dam is at the present time being maintained at an unlawful height and .the petitioners request that the Com- mission investigate the matter and determine if such dam is causing serious damage to property abutting on the lake, and also if said dam is being main- tained at an unlawful height. A hearing was held in this matter by the Railroad Commission in the city of Rice Lake, but the investigation is not yet complete. Grantsburg Dam, Application for Franchise, July 1914 Upon application of Francis S. Stewart et al. to erect a dam on Wood river in Burnett county to operate a paint factory, an investigation was made. Objection was raised by certain residents of Grantsburg to allowing the Stewart people to build a dam, as it would destroy a dam site owned by the village. All necessary investigations have been completed but the franchise is being withheld, pending the outcome of negotiations between the village of Grantsburg and Mr. Stewart. On Water Powers to the Legislature 15 Level of Water on Long Lake, Town of Long Lake, Washburn County July 1914 Application was made by the Long Lake Improvement Association for a charter to maintain a dam at the outlet of Long Lake, in the town of Long Lake, in Washburn county, and the Commission petitioned to estab- lish a high and low water limit to be maintained in this lake. An investi- gation was made and a hearing held by the Commission relative to this mat- ter. A decision will be made in the near future. Level of Water in Lake Wingra, City of Madison August 1914 Complaint was received by the Commission that the level of water in Lake Wingra had been lowered, due to certain dredging operations. Sur- veys and investigations appear to indicate that the lake on October 17, 1914, was 2.26 feet lower than in the summer of 1905, when the elevation was taken by the United States Geological Survey. This was before dredging was done. Further investigations show that the creek leading from Lake Wingra to Lake Monona has been dredged deeper, and that in order to maintain the original level of the water in Lake Wingra, a lock was built. The low level of the lake was found to be largely due to the leaky condition of this lock. Level of Water in Fisher Lake, Turtle River, Near Mercer August 1914 Upon petition by the state forester an investigation was made to deter- mine the extent of the damages to state and other lands resulting from back- water caused by the maintenance of the Fisher Lake dam. This dam is located on Turtle river in the town of Presque Isle, about eight miles north- east of Mercer. It is used to create a pond from which logs are loaded on flat cars. The investigation included an examination of the shoreline con- ditions of Fisher Lake, Turtle river between Fisher Lake and the dam, and the islands in Fisher Lake. A hearing was held before the Commission but no final disposition of the case was made. Beloit Water Power Company, Level of Water in Rock River August 1914 On petition of certain riparian owners on the Rock river above the dam of the Beloit Water Power Company, an investigation was made by the Commission. It was alleged by the petitioners that said dam was being maintained at an unlawful height and should be lowered so as to cause less damage to land farther upstream. A hearing was held and investigations made, but a decision has not yet been reached. Jackson Milling Company Dam, Flowage, Stevens Point September 1914 On petition of certain riparian owners along the Wisconsin river, a hear- ing was held by the Railroad Commission relative to flowage conditions on the Wisconsin river above the Jackson Milling Company's dam in the city of Stevens Point, and the head to be maintained at said dam. The necessary investigations have not yet been completed. Bench marks have been established near the dam. 16 Railroad Commission Report Wisconsin River Power Company, Prairie du Sac October 1914 The Wisconsin River Power Company has about completed the con- struction of a dam on the Wisconsin river at Prairie du Sac. This dam is a reinforced concrete dam, about 1,000 feet long, equipped with a lock and supplied with tainter gates. A charter was granted by the legislature to maintain a dam at this place. Application was made to the Commission to have the restrictions to height removed and new limitations placed upon the height of the head to be maintained at this dam. A hearing was held by the Railroad Commission, but as further inves- tigation may be necessary, no decision has been made. Approval of Plans, Jackson Milling Company Dam, Stevens Point November 1914 Plans were submitted to the Railroad Commission for proposed repairs on the old dam of the Jackson Milling Company, located on the Wisconsin river, in the city of Stevens Point. These plans contemplated the replacing of a certain portion of the old dam by a new timber structure. The plans were checked and approved by the Commission. INVESTIGATION OF EXISTING DAMS Pursuant to the provisions of par. 3, sec. 1596-51, an investigation has been made of a large number of exist- ing dams. The state is divided into five drainage basins: the Mississippi river basin, the Wisconsin river basin, the Lake Superior basin, the Lake Michigan basin and the Rock River basin. The territory embraced in each basin is shown on the map published later in this report. The territory embraced in each basin is that which drains into the river or lake represented in the name of the respective districts. The field work connected with the examination of dams has been practically completed in three of the basins; namely, the Mississippi river basin, the Wisconsin river basin and the Lake Superior basin; also Milwaukee county in the Lake Michigan basin and Waukesha county in the Rock river basin. With the limited amount of time avail- able it was not found practicable to complete this investi- gation in the remaining basins. The actual work of investigating these dams consists largely of an investigation along the following lines: iden- tification, historical record, descriptive, constructive and operative features. Forms were prepared to be used by On Water Powers to the Legislature 17 the investigators for the purpose of outlining the informa- tion desired to be obtained in connection with each dam. A copy of these blanks is attached to this report in an Appendix. In addition to the information thus obtained a general sketch was made of each dam with typical cross-sections through the spillway, gates, flumes, retain- ing walls, etc. Photographs were taken in most cases to show general and special features. Special attention was given to any dam or any feature of a dam which appeared to indicate inadequacy or structural weakness. Supple- menting the field investigations, research was made to de- termine or to verify the permits under which each dam is being operated. Following is a complete list of the dams investigated in the three districts above named, also -all dams in Milwau- kee and Waukesha counties; sufficient information being given in each case for general purposes and the neces- sary reference to enable anyone interested to obtain all de- tails which may be desired. This list is arranged by coun- ties in alphabetical order and the dams in each county are arranged alphabetically with respect to the local name of the dam. Under the heading of "charter recorded," in these tables, the notation "none found" does not necessarily in- dicate that the dam is being operated without a permit as it may have been constructed under the general mill dam act of 1840, but in these cases no information has been found on the subject.

Consequently, such a list was prepared of all fran- chises and permits granted by the legislature since the organi- zation of the territory of Wisconsin and also during the period when Wisconsin was a part of the territory of Michigan. This list of permits is attached hereto, arranged alphabetically by counties (except that following this list by counties is a sup- plementary list including a number of permits which could not be included in the county list) with the permits in each county arranged chronologically. In each case there is given the citation of the law granting the charter, location for which the charter was granted, the river, name of grantee, length of duration of grant, purpose of grant and remarks covering special features relative thereto. There are given in all 770 permits to construct dams, of which 250 are for power and hydraulic purposes, 160 for logging and to facilitate logging, 54 for hydraulic and improvement of navi- gation, 49 for log driving and hydraulic purposes, 36 for improve- ment and navigation and log driving, 35 for improvement of navigation and 186 for other purposes viz: to feed canals, for pisciculture, to create ponds, to flow cranberry marshes, for general municipal purposes, for the "public good,' and also grants in which no purpose was specified. Besides these 770 permits for the construction and maintenance of dams, there are 130 miscellaneous or special acts of the legis- lature. These acts do not refer to any special dam or location, but pertain in a general way to all dams, or rivers, or to conditions on a certain river.

The total expenditures for this investigation in Wisconsin, from July 1, 1913, to September 30, 1914, were $12,842.35. Of this amount $9,492.55 was furnished by the Railroad Commission, $2,413.23 by- the Water Re- sources Branch of the United States Geological Survey, and $936.57 by the United States Indian Service. The appropriation from the Indian Service was: for the main- tenance of stream gaging stations in the Menominee In- dian Reservation on the Wolf river at Keshena and on the west branch of the Wolf river at Neopit for which $339.41 was expended; and for the construction and maintenance in the La Pointe Indian Reservation of a gaging station on the Bad river near Odanah, Wis., for which $597.16 was expended. Not included in the above total is the amount spent by private engineers, power companies, the United States Weather Bureau, and the United States Army Engineer Corps, in cooperation with the Railroad Commission and the United States Geological Survey, for the installa- tion and maintenance of stream gaging stations. The na- ture, extent and source of cooperation received is given below. The Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company furnishes weekly precipitation records compiled from data obtained at several meteorological stations maintained by the United States Weather Bureau on the upper Wisconsin drainage basin. This company has also contributed $240.72 toward the total cost of the installation of an automatic gage on 208 Railroad Commission Report the Wisconsin river at Merrill, and an automatic gage and cable-car equipment for making flow measurements on the Wisconsin river at Nekoosa. The Wisconsin Public Service Company has installed, at a cost of about $200.00, a Barrett & Lawrence auto- matic gage on the Peshtigo river below their dam at High Falls, and is furnishing the charts from the gage from which the average daily stage of the river can be ob- tained. They have also furnished labor and supplies for the erection of a cable and car equipment across the Pesh- tigo river below the gage, to be used for measuring the flow and determining a rating for the gage. The Wisconsin-Minnesota Light & Power Company has installed, at a cost of about $300.00, a Barrrett & Lawl rence gage on the Red Cedar river near Menomonie and furnishes the weekly charts from the gage. In January! 1914, the Railroad Commission installed a Friez auto- matic gage on the Chippewa river at the highway bridge at Chippewa Falls. The Wisconsin-Minnesota Light & Power Company contributed about $75.00 towards the cost of this installation. This company also furnishes a man to change the sheets on the automatic gage and pays gage reader at a station on the Red Cedar river near Colfax. The Chippewa and Flambeau Improvement Company pays observers at the two stations on upper Chippewa river. Daily discharge from the dam and power house records are furnished by the Minneapolis General Electric Com- pany for the St. Croix river near St. Croix Falls; by the St. Paul Gas Light Company for the Apple river near Somerset, Wis.; and by the Menominee & Marinette Light & Traction Company for Menominee river below Koss, Mich. The United States Army Engineers are furnishing daily gage heights for the Wolf river at New London and are also furnishing daily discharge for the Fox river at Rapide Croche dam. The United States Weather Bureau sends monthly me- teorological, climatological and snow and ice bulletins, which are of assistance in computing the discharge for the stream gaging stations in the state. River and rain gages are being maintained on the upper Wisconsin river at Rhinelander, Merrill, Wausau and Knowlton, and a On Water Powers to the Legislature !2() ( .) daily river bulletin is sent by A. A. Babcock, official in charge at Wausau, which shows the river stage and pre- cipitation during the preceding twenty-four hours. When heavy rains occur at any of the weather bureau precipi- tation stations, telegrams are sent so that the Railroad Commission engineers can start immediately into the field and make high water measurements on the rivers affected. The work of the stream gaging department is carried on by two engineers of the United States Geological Sur- vey and two engineers of the engineering department of the Railroad Commission. By this force, and with sug- gestions from the Washington office of the United States Geological Survey, are made all reconnaisance for and the installation of stream gaging stations; all measurements of flow and the compilation of statistics and data and re- ports pertaining to hydrometric work. In addition to the above force there are thirty-one men who are employed as gage readers. Their work consists -of making daily readings of the river gage, recording the gage heights and remarks as to weather and river conditions in a book which is sent to Madison every three months and on a card which is sent every week. During the open water period at stations where the distance of the observer from the gage is less than half a mile two readings per day of the gage are made by the observer, and where further than a half mile, one reading. With two or three exceptions the observers have less than half a mile to go and make two daily readings. After ice forms in the river the ob- servers make one reading per day, or two, three, or four readings a week in special cases. But in addition they record the high and low temperatures for the day. For their services the gage readers receive from this depart- ment a compensation of $5.00 per month. At ten sta- tions the services of a gage reader are furnished or are paid for by private engineers or power companies, and at three stations by the Indian service. EARLIER INVESTIGATIONS BY THE UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY The results of stream-flow investigations in Wisconsin, made prior to September 30, 1913, have been published in reports Water Supply Papers by the United States Geological Survey, the calendar year and major drainage R.R.-W.P.-14 210 Railroad Commission Report basins forming the units of publication. The streams of Wisconsin belong to two of the major drainage basins, the St. Lawrence river basin, forming PART IV of the Sur- vey's classification system, and the Hudson Bay and up- per Mississippi river basins, forming PART V. The St. Lawrence river basin includes streams flowing into the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence river. The prin- cipal streams in Wisconsin belonging to this system dis- charge into Lake Superior and Lake Michigan and in- clude Aminicon, Brule, and Bad rivers, discharging into Lake Superior, and Menominee, Peshtigo, Oconto, Fox and Milwaukee rivers, discharging into Lake Michigan. The reports presenting results for PART IV are shown by the following table: Reports Containing Results of Stream Measurements in St. Lawrence River Basin Year 1899 1900 1901 1902 1903 Water Supply Paper 36 49 65 83 97 1904 - - - - 129 1905 . 170 1906 _ _ 206 1907-8 244 1909 . 264 1910 1911 1912 1913 284 305 324 354 The Hudson Bay and Upper Mississippi rivers basin, forming PART V, include all streams that drain into Hud- son Bay or into the Mississippi above its junction with the Ohio (except the Missouri).

If the records published in this report differ from those published in the water supply papers, proper foot notes, giving reasons, have been appended to the tables. The order of treatment of stations in this report is downstream. All stations from the source to the mouth of the main stem of the river are presented first and then the tributaries are taken up in regular order from source to mouth. The tributaries are treated like the main stream, all stations in each tributary basin being given before those in the one next below. In the execution of the work many private parties have cooperated with the official organizations, either by fur- nishing records or by assisting in collecting data. Ac- knowledgment for such cooperation is made in connec- tion with the description of each station affected. COLLECTION OF STREAM FLOW DATA During the period covered by this report 71 gaging sta- tions have been installed or taken over for operation at various locations throughout the state, as shown on the map attached, page 222, and in the list of stations on pages 223 and 224. A complete description of each On \Vdfer Powers (<> I he Legislature 213 station, together with its method of operation and the original data relating thereto, as well as that at the pres- ent being collected, will be found on page 226 and follow- ing pages. These stations are arranged in the order shown in the list on pages 223 and 224. Definition of Trrnis For the purpose of more completely understanding the tables herein referred to, the following definitions of terms are given: The volume of water flowing in a stream the "run-off" or "discharge"- is expressed in various terms, each of which has become associated with a certain class of work. These terms may be divided into two groups (1) those which represent a rate of flow, as second-feet, gallons per minute, miner's inches, and discharge in -second-feet per square mile, and (2) those which represent the actual quantity of water, as run-off (depth in inches), acre-feet, and millions of cubic feet. The units used in this report are second-foot, second-feet per square mile, and run-off in inches. They may be defined as follows: "Second-foot" is an abbreviation for "cubic foot per second" and is a unit for the rate of discharge of water flowing in a stream. A second-foot is the rate of discharge of water flowing in a channel of rectangular cross section 1 foot wide and 1 foot deep at an average velocity of 1 foot a second. It is generally used as a fundamental unit from which others are computed by the use of the factors given in the tables of convenient equivalents (p. 214). "Second-feet per square mile" is the average number of cubic feet of water flowing per second from each square mile of area drained, on the assumption that the run-off is distributed uniformly both as regards time and area. "Run-off (depth in inches)" is the depth to which the drainage area would be covered if all the water flowing from it in a given period were conserved and uniformly dis- tributed on the surface. It is used for comparing run-off with rainfall, which is usually expressed in depth in inches. The following terms used in this report are not in com- mon use, and may be defined as follows: "Control," "controlling section," and "point of control" are terms used to designate that cross section of the 214 Railroad Commission Report stream below the gage which controls or regulates the height of the water surface at the gage. It should be noted that the control may not be the same cross section at all stages. "Discharge relation" is an abbreviation for the term "re- lation of gage height to discharge." The "point of zero flow" for a given gaging station is that point on the gage the gage height to which the surface of the river would fall if there were no flow.

Explanation of Data The data presented in this report cover the year begin- ning October 1, and ending September 30, and not as has been published in the water-supply papers relating to Wis- consin streams, the calendar year. At the first of January in Wisconsin a large amount of precipitation for the pre- ceding three months is stored, either as ground water in the form of snow, or in lakes. This stored water passes off in the streams during the Spring break-up. At the end of September the only stored water available for run-off in the streams is possibly a small amount held in ground storage. Therefore, the run-off for a year, beginning with October first, is practically all derived from precipitation occurring within that year. For each regular current-meter gaging station the fol- lowing data, so far as available, are given: Description of the station, list of discharge measurements, table of daily gage height, table of daily discharge, table of monthly and yearly discharge and run-off. For stations located at dams or for those for which the data have been published in water- supply papers the gage height table is omitted. On Water Powers to the Legislature 217 In addition to statements regarding the location and in- stallation of current-meter stations, the descriptions give information in regard to any conditions that may affect the constancy of the relation of gage height and discharge the discharge relation covering such points as ice, log- ging, shifting channels, and backwater. Statements are also made regarding the accuracy of the data. The table of daily gage height shows the daily fluctua- tions of the surface of the river as found from the mean of the gage readings taken each day, usually in the morn- ing and in the evening, though at a very few stations only one reading is made each day. At a comparatively few stations (Red Cedar at Menomonie, Chippewa at Ghip- pewa Falls, Wisconsin at Merrill, Wisconsin at Nekoosa, Peshtigo at High Falls) automatic gages are used which give a continuous record of river stage in the form of a hydrograph, and at the station on the Bad river near Odanah a record printed at regular intervals from which the mean daily gage height can be computed. The gage height given in the table represents the ele- vation of the surface of the water above the zero of the gage. All gage heights affected by the presence of ice in the streams or by backwater from obstructions are pub- lished as recorded, with suitable footnotes. The rating table is not applicable for such periods unless the proper corrections to the gage heights are known and applied. At- tention is called to the fact that the zero of the gage is placed at an arbitrary datum and has no relation to zero flow or the bottom of the river. In general the zero is lo- cated somewhat below the lowest known flow, so that neg- ative readings shall not occur. In the tables of daily gage height the use of zeros in the hundredths place indicates the limits of accuracy to which the gage was read and to which the mean daily gage heighth was computed. If a gage is read to tenths or half tenths once a day or to tenths twice a day, no zeros appear in the hundredths place for any stage. If the gage is read to half tenths twice a day or to quarter tenths or hundredths, regardless of the number of read- ings a day, the gage heights are published to hundredths, and zeros appear in the hundredths place, below a certain limiting stage. This limiting stage is so selected that the average error in the mean daily discharge, resulting from 218 Railroad Commission Report VARIOUS FORMS OF PRICE METERS On Water I'owcrx l<> I he Lcyislalurc 211) nol using Hie mean daily mngi' hi'ighl to hundredlhs above that stage, shall not be greater than 2 per cent. For au- tomatic gages the allowable average error of the daily dis- charge has been taken as 1 per cent. The selection of the percentage is arbitrary, but it should be noted that the max- imum error will in all cases be twice the average error. In like manner half tenths are used from the hundredths limit to another higher limit, above which only tenths are used. It is the aim to have the gage height observations at each gaging station recorded to the degree of refine- ment required by the above method of use, but in prac- tice it is found necessary, in order to avoid confusion in the gage observer's record, to have the observations for all stages recorded to the degree of refinement required for low stages, which usually necessitates readings to hun- dredths of a foot. The discharge measurements and gage heights are the base data from which rating tables, daily discharge tables and monthly discharge tables are computed. The rating table gives, either directly or by interpola- tion, the discharge in second-feet corresponding to every stage of the river recorded during the period for which it is applicable. It is not published in this report, but can be determined from the tables of daily gage heights and daily discharge by plotting gage heights in feet as ordi- nates and discharge in second-feet as abscissas. The table of daily discharge determined from the rating table gives the discharge in second-feet corresponding to the mean of the gage readings observed each day. In the table of monthly discharge the column headed "Maximum" gives the mean flow, as determined from the rating table, for the day when the mean gage heights was highest. As the gage height is the mean for the day, it does not indicate correctly the stage when the surface water was at crest height and the corresponding discharge was consequently larger than given in the maximum col- umn. Likewise in the column at "Minimum" the quan- tity given is the mean flow for the day when the mean mage height was lowest. The column headed "Mean" is the average flow in cubic feet for each second during the month. On this the computations for the remaining col- umns, which are defined on page 213, are based. 220 Railroad Commission Report The base data presented in this report, unless other- wise stated in description of station, have been collected by the methods commonly used at current-meter gaging stations and described in standard textbooks. Accuracy of Field Data and Computed Results The accuracy of stream-flow data depends (1) on the permanence of the relation between discharge and stage, and (2) on the accuracy of observation of stage, measure- ments of flow, and interpretation of the data. In order to give engineers and others information re- garding the probable accuracy of the computed results, foot notes are added to the daily discharge tables, stat- ing the probable accuracy of the rating tables used, and an accuracy column is inserted in the monthly discharge table. For the rating tables, "well-defined" indicates, in general, that the rating is probably accurate within 5 per cent; "fairly well defined," within 10 per cent; "poorly defined" or "approximate," within 15 to 25 per cent. These notes are very general and are based on the plot- ting of the individual measurements with reference to the mean rating curve. The accuracy column in the monthly discharge table does not apply to the maximum or minimum nor to any individual day, but to the monthly mean. It is based on the accuracy of the rating curve, the probable reliability of the observer, the number of gage readings per day, the range of the fluctuation in stage, and knowledge of local conditions. In this column, "A" indicates that the esti- mate of mean monthly flow is probably accurate within 5 per cent; "B," within 10 per cent; "C," within 15 per cent; "D," within 25 per cent. Special conditions are cov- ered by footnotes. Even though the monthly means for any station may represent with a high degree of accuracy the quantity of water flowing past the gage, the figures showing dis- charge per square mile and depth of run-off in inches may be subject to gross errors, which result from including in the measured drainage area large noncontributing districts or omitting estimates of water diverted for irrigation or other use. On this account the computations of "second- feet per square mile" and "run-off (depth in inches)" have not been made for stations draining areas for which . On Water Powers to the Legislature 12121 is believed that the computations would be uncertain id misleading because of the presence of large noncon- -ibuting districts in the measured drainage area, of omitting itimates of water diverted for irrigation or other use, >r of artificial control or unusual natural control of the flow of the river above the gaging station. All values of "second- feet per square mile" and "run-off (depth in inches)" pre- viously published by the U. S. Geological Survey and all such values in this report should be used with extreme caution, because of possible inherent sources of error not known. The base data' collected each year are published to af- ford any engineer the means of examining and adjusting to his own needs the results of the computations. The table of monthly discharge is so arranged as to give only a general idea of the flow at the station and should not be used for other than preliminary estimates. The deter- minations of daily discharge allow mofe detailed studies of the variation in flow by which the period of deficiency may be determined. It should be borne in mind that observations in each succeeding year may be expected to throw new light on data already collected and published, and the engineer who makes use of the figures presented in this report should verify all ratings and make such adjustments for earlier years as may seem necessary. 222 Railroad Commission Report 5TATE OF WISCONSIN SHOWING DRAINAGE BASINS AND GAGING STATIONS Stale DECEMBER 1914 L L,l N O I 5 On Water Powers to the Legislature 1212.')

At the highway bridge at Chippewa Falls, Wis., 2,500 feet below the mouth of Duncan Creek coming in from the right. Records available. June 22, 1888, to September 30, 1914. Records from 1899 to 1912 published also in Water-Supply Papers Nos. 207, 245, 265, 285, 305, and 325. The gage was originally established by the Chippewa Lumber & Boom Co., which has kept a continuous record since 1899. Since 1904 the United States Weather Bureau has ob- tained gage heights during the flood season of each year. On June 1, 1906, the United States Geological Survey began making discharge measurements and obtained gage heights when no record was obtained by the Weather Bureau. The gage heights as they have been pub- lished have been obtained from the following sources: June 22, 1888, to November 21, 1889, from certified blue print copies of gage heights as kept by the Chippewa Lumber & Boom Co., furnished by Fargo Engineering Co.; March to September, 1905, 1907, and 1908, United States Weather Bureau; April to July, 1909, Chippewa Lumber & Boom Co.; October 1 to December 31, 1911, United States Geological Survey; January to June, 1912, Chippewa Lumber & Boom Co.; March to July, 1912, United States Weather Bureau; December, 1912, Chippewa Valley Railway, Light & Power Co.; January 1, 1913, to date, United States Geological Survey. Drainage area. 5,600 square miles. Gage. Friez recording water stage register, installed during January, 1914, fastened to the web between the two piers supporting first right-hand span and about 10 feet upstream from the former United States Weather Bureau gage; gage referred to the original datum. Prior to installation of this recording gage the readings were taken from a painted staff gage on the cylindrical pier at the right end of bridge. On August 19, 1913, the gage was found in error by the following amounts: Point of Gage Error Feet Inches Feet 27 3.1 + .03 26 4.2 +.03 16 10.2 +.12 12 0.0 +.15 7 1.0 +.12 2 2.0 +.12 Error has probably existed since the gage was painted on the pier, but the precise date can not be determined. It should be noted that any error in the gage on the pier enters into the gage heights of dis- charge measurements as well as the daily gage heights. Control. Probably permanent. Discharge measurements. Made from downstream side of bridge. Floods. On December 6, 1896, the river reached a stage of 26.03 feet; on September 10, 1884, a stage of 26.94 feet, according to high-water marks on the door of the office of the Chippewa Lumber & Boom Co. Winter flow. Discharge relation at times affected by ice; the flow during such periods determined by discharge measurements. On Water Powers to the Legislature 257 ;ulation. Some fluctuation is caused by the operation of a power plant about one-half mile above the dam. The greatest fluctuation is, however, caused by the operation of larger plants above, notably the Brunet Falls Manufacturing Co., at Cornell, Wis. ^curacy. Records for 1914 excellent; those for previous years, owing to fluctuations in stage, possible error in gage datum, and little super- vision of gage readings, less accurate, but as the discharge relation is permanent, all records are believed to be at least good. operation. The Wisconsin & Minnesota Light & Power Co. has assisted in the installation and maintenance of the recording gage installed during January, 1914. Note other cooperation under "Records avail- able."

Daily discharge June 22, 1888, to Nov. 21, 1898, and Oct. 1, 1909, to Sept. 30, 1914, computed from a rating curve well defined between 1,940 and 23,700 second-feet (gage heights 0.8 and 8.0 feet). Discharge Apr. 10, 1899, to Sept. 30, 1909, computed from a rating curve well defined between 2,030 and 24,200 second-feet; for discharges of 1,830 secoad-feet and over the curve coincides with that used in computing the data published in Water-Supply Papers 245 and 265; discharge below 1,830 second- feet for this period revised in the above tables by new rating curve used for the other years. All discharges below 1,300 second-feet (gage height 0.5 foot) based on exten- sion of rating curve. Open-water rating curve used throughout years ending Sept. 30, 1910 and 1911; published discharges for January, February and March may therefore be too large. Discharge estimated, because of ice, from gage heights, observer's notes, discharge measurements, and climatologic records, as follows: Dec. 1 to 10, 1913, 6,100 second- feet; Dec. 11 to 20, 2,800 second-feet; Dec. 21 to 31, 1,700 second-feet; Jan. 1 to 10, 1,690 second-feet; Jan. 11 to 20, 1914, 1,590 second-feet; Jan. 21 to 31,. 1,850 second- feet; Feb. 1 to 10, 1,920 second-feet; Feb. 11 to 20, 1,580 second-feet; Feb. 21 to 28, 1,630 second-feet: Mar. 1 to 10, 1,700 second-feet; and Mar. 11 to 22, 1,680 second-feet.

At the highway bridge in the vicinity of Cedar Falls, Wis. 4j miles above the crossing of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis, & Omaha Railway. .Records available. April 1, 1909, to September 30, 1914. Data published also in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 265, 285, 305, and 325. Drainage area. Not measured. Gage. Staff gage fastened to bridge pier; read twice daily, morning and evening, to tenths. Control. Probably permanent. Discharge measurements. No discharge measurements have been made at this station. The station is maintained for the purpose of deter- mining the fluctuation in stage. Winter flow. Winters are severe in this locality, but the discharge relation is apparently not greatly affected by ice, probably because of the rapids a short distance below the station which ordinarily do not entirely freeze over. Regulation. The operation of small storage reservoirs at the headwaters of the river, together with storage at the power plants above the gaging station, modifies the flow to such an extent that it can not be considered natural. Cooperation. Gage heights furnished by the Wisconsin & Minnesota Light & Power Co. Daily gage height, in feet, of Red Cedar River at Cedar Falls, Wis., for the years ending Sept. 30, 1909-1914.

Location. About 900 feet below the power house of the Wisconsin & Minnesota Light & Power Co., about 13 miles above the confluence of the Red Cedar and Chippewa rivers. Wilson creek enters from the right into the service reservoir just above the station. Records available. June 16, 1907, to September 5, 1908; May 9, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Records for 1907-8 published in United States Geological Survey Water-Supply Paper 245. Drainage area. 1,810 square miles. Gage. From June 16, 1907, to September 5, 1908, the gage was attached to a highway bridge about 200 rods west of the Chicago & North Western Railway station west of Menomonie; on May 9, 1913, a Barrett & Lawrence recording gage was installed over wooden intake and well on right bank of river about 1 mile above site of old gage. Relation between datums of the two gages not determined. Control. Heavy gravel and rock; permanent. Discharge measurements. Made from the highway bridge to which the old gage was fastened. Winter flow. Formation of ice on the control is prevented by the flow of relatively warm water from the service reservoir immediately above the gage; winter records as accurate as those of summer. Regulation. Considerable diurnal fluctuation in stage at the gage section is caused by the operation of the power plants of the Wisconsin & Minnesota Light & Power Co. at Menomonie and Cedar Falls, and minor changes are also caused by smaller plants on the tributaries of the Red Cedar above Menomonie. Floods. The flow of the water is so well controlled by dams at Menomonie and Cedar Falls and by natural storage in the headwaters that the occurrence of floods is unlikely. Accuracy. Rating curve carefully developed; mean stage accurately deter- mined from recording gage; records excellent. Cooperation.

At lower highway bridge, city of Neillsville, Wis., O'Neill Creek enters from the left about 1 mile above the gage, and Cunning- ham Creek, also from the left, about 1^ miles below. Kords available. April 7, 1905, to March 31, 1909; December 11, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Records April 7, 1905, to March 31, 1909, published in United States Geological Survey Water-Supply Papers 171, 207, 245, and 265. Drainage area. 774 square miles; area used in previous water-supply papers as 675 square miles. Gage. Chain gage fastened to downstream side of highway bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to quarter tenths; limits of use: hundredths below 3.5 feet, half tenths between 3.5 and 4.5 feet, and tenths above 4.5 feet. Discharge measurements. Made from bridge and by wading. ! Floods. On June 6, 1905, the river reached a stage of 19.8 feet; on June 5, 1914, a stage of 19.55 feet. A rating curve, developed during June, 1914, when discharge measurements were made_ at a stage of 12.53 feet, indicates that the discharge June 6, 1905, was approximately 1 29,400 second-feet, and on June 5, 1914, 28,700 second-feet. Winter flow. Discharge relation affected by ice. Regulation. Marked diurnal fluctuations, especially during low stages, are caused by the operation of power plants above. Accuracy. -Medium and high stage records excellent; low-stage records, especially during the winter, only fair, owing to diurnal fluctuations. i Previously determined as 23,000 second-feet, from a curve, the highest measurement of which was m:ub at a stage of only 7.7 feet.

Mav .. June July August September NOTE: Monthly discharge for 1905 differs from that published in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Paper 171 on account of publishing the above values to three significant figures. Discharge in "second-feet per square mile" and run- off "depth in inches," for 19051909 differ from those published in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 171, 207, 245, and 265 on account of revising and changing the drainage area from 675 to 774 square miles. Monthly mean dis- charges for 1906 are good, except July and August which are fair. During the frozen period in 1906 the discharge prob- ably seldom exceeded 500 second-feet and attained a minimum of at least 150, and probably much less. The monthly mean discharges for January to March, 1909, are based on one discharge measurement made during the period, a study . of climatologic data, and observer's notes on ice conditions.

Location. At highway bridge 2 miles west of West Salem, Wis., and 10 miles above the mouth of the river. Dutch Creek enters from the right 6 miles above the station. Drainage area. 412 square miles. Records available. December 22, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Gage. Chain gage fastened to concrete guard-rail on the upstream side of bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to quarter tenths; limits of use: hundredths below 1.0 foot, half tenths between 1.0 and 2.0 feet, and tenths above 2.0 feet. On \Vdtcr Powers to the Legislature 329 ( ontrol. Heavy gravel and rock; probably permanent. The section at the bridge was originally unfavorable for making accurate discharge measure- ments. The channel was however cleaned out during the summer of 1914, making accurate discharge measurements possible. Discharge measurements. Made from upstream side of bridge during medium and high stages; by wading during low stages. A stay-wire has been erected upstream from the bridge for use during high water. Regulation. During low stages a small diurnal fluctuation at the gage is caused by operation of power plant above. Accuracy. Results only fair; accuracy of records impaired by artificial regulation of flow.

In Sec. 27, T. 36 N., R. 8 E., at highway bridge just below Hhinelander Power Go's power station, 8 miles southwest of Rhine- lander, Wis., 8 miles below the mouth of the Pelican River. Records available. December 1, 1905, to September 30, 1914. Also pub- lished in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 207, 245, 265, 285, 305, and 325. Drainage area. 1,110 square miles. Gage. Standard chain gage, fastened to upstream side of bridge; read once daily, October 1, 1913, to April 15, 1914, to nearest tenth, and twice daily, morning and evening, to nearest tenth from April 16 to Septem- ber 30, 1914; limits of use: half tenths below 3.5 and tenths above 3.5 feet. Gage heights November 27 to December 31, 1910, as published in Water-Supply Paper 285; for 1911, as published in Water-Supply Paper 305; and from January 1 to September 18, 1912, as published in Water-Supply Paper 325, should be corrected by subtracting 0.13 foot; all gage heights September 19 to 30, 1912, as published in W T ater-Supply Paper 325, should be corrected by adding 0.12 foot. Discharge measurements. Made from downstream side of bridge to which gage is attached. Winter flow. Little ice forms in the vicinity of the gage, owing to the relatively high temperature of the water coming from the service reservoirs. Regulation. Flow of river controlled by the Rhinelander Power Go's plant near Rhinelander and the plant at Otter Rapids; modified also by storage reservoirs in the headwaters operated by the Upper Wis- consin Valley Improvement Co. Accuracy. Records only fair, owing to the operation of the power plants and to the presence of grass in the stream which may cause backwater at times.

At highway bridge, east end of the city of Merrill, 1,000 fee below the power house and dam of the Merrill Electric Railway & Power Co., and half a mile below the mouth of Prairie River, comim in from the right. Records available. November 17, 1902, to September 30, 1914; published also in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 83, 98, 128, 171, 207 245, 265, 285, 305, and 325. Drainage area. 2,630 square miles. Gage. November 17, 1902, to June 17, 1903, staff gage; June 17, 1903, t( September 10, 1914, chain gage, attached to downstream side of th highway bridge; datum the same since June 17, 1903; records prior t( this date doubtful; Stevens recording gage installed September 11, 1914 From January to July the chain gage was read twice daily; from Augus to December once daily, in the morning. Gage heights for January tc December, 1912, as published in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Paper 325 should be corrected by subtracting .07 foot. Control. Heavy gravel and rock; probably permanent, except for possibl scour in high water. Discharge measurements. Made from highway bridge to which the gage is attached. Winter flow. Little ice forms at gage section. Ice forms on the right bank of the river below the gage, extending at times nearly to the center of the channel and causing a small amount of backwater at the gage. Regulation. Upstream from the gage are the following power plants, in order: Merrill; Merrill Electric Light & Railway Co. Tomahawk; Tomahawk Pulp & Paper Co. Tomahawk; Tomahawk Tannery Co. Kings; Tomahawk Power Co. Hat Rapids; Rhinelander Power Co. Rhinelander; Rhinelander Paper Co. Otter Rapids; Eagle River Electric Co. On Water Powers to the Legislature 341 All these plants control the flow somewhat by means of service reser- voirs. The plant at Otter Rapids has a pondage with an area of 5 square miles. In addition to regulation by the plants named above, 17 reservoirs, having a capacity of over four billion cubic feet, are operated for storage in the \Visconsin basin above Merrill, by the Wisconsin Valley Improvement Co. Floods. 1 On July 24, 1912, at 5:00 a. m., the water reached a stage of approximately 17.5 feet, corresponding to a discharge of 45,000 second- feet. During the 21 hours previous, 11.25 inches of rain had fallen in the vicinity of Merrill. According to C. B. Stewart, consulting engineer, Madison, the run-off of the 700 square miles between Merrill and Toma- hawk was at the rate of 65 cubic feet per square mile; if the estimate is extended to the entire drainage area above Merrill, the flow was 17 second-feet per square mile; little rain, however, had fallen in the basin above Tomahawk. Accuracy. Accuracy of records impaired by diurnal fluctuations caused by the operation of power plants, by backwater from ice during the .win- ter, and possibly from logs in the spring on the control. During the last part of September, 1908, the water reached a stage considerably below that at which any measurements have been~made; because of the large daily fluctuation during low stages and possible error in the exten- sion of rating curve, estimates of discharges based on mean gage height for the day should be use.d with caution. See special footnotes to tables of daily and monthly discharge. Cooperation. Station maintained in cooperation with the United States Weather Bureau and the Wisconsin Valley Improvement Co. i See Stewart, Clinton B., Investigation ot flood flow on the Watershed Upper Mississippi River: Western Soc.

WISCONSIN RIVER NEAR NECEDAH, WIS. Location. At the highway bridge known as "Pete-in-Well Bridge," about 3 miles east of Necedah, Wis., on the road from Necedah to Strongs Prairie, about 5 miles above the mouth of the big Roche a Cri Creek, coming in from the left. Records available. December, 1902, to June 30, 1914, when station was discontinued. Data published also in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 83, 98, 128, 171, 207, 245, 265, 285, 305, and 325. Drainage area. 5,800 square miles. Gage. Chain gage attached to bridge. Gage heights as published in Water-Supply Paper 265 for the year 1909 approximately .04 foot too high; gage heights for 1910, W 7 ater-Supply Paper 285, approxi- mately .08 foot too high; gage heights for 1911, as published in Water- Supply Paper 305, approximately .13 foot too high; gage heights for 1912, as published in Water-Supply Paper 325, approximately .17 foot too high. Gage heights for 1913 referred to original datum. Control. Bed of river near right bank rocky; both up and down stream the bed is for the most part sandy and, as shown by the cross-section of measurements, shifts continually. On Water Powers to the Legislature 353 Floods. Highest stage recorded at this station, 16.8 feet, October 10, 1911. Winter flow. Discharge relation greatly modified by ice which forms at the gage to a thickness of 1 to 2 feet. Accuracy. Owing to the shifting nature of the bed, estimates based on occasional discharge measurements should be used with great caution. Cooperation.

Eagle Mill Creek enters from the right about half a mile below the station. Underwood Creek enters from the left 4j miles above the station. 362 Railroad Commission Report Records available. December 21, 1902, to December 31, 1903, and Dec- ember 4, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Records for 1902 and 1903 published also in Water-Supply Papers 83 and 98. Gage heights for November 1, 1908, to December 31, 1912 published in U. S. Weather Bureau bulletin Daily River Stages, Parts 9, 10, and 11. Drainage area. 10,300 square miles. Gage. Chain gage fastened to plate girder on downstream side of bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to half tenths; limits of use: tenths throughout entire range in stage during the year ending Septem- ber 30, 1914. Elevation of zero of present gage is approximately 12.62 feet above that of gage maintained December 20, 1902, to Dec- ember 31, 1903; elevation of gage during the period November, 1908, to December 3, 1913, as read and published by the U. S. Weather Bureau was approximately the same as during the period December 4, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Elevation of present gage is approxi- mately 666.2 feet ab'ove sea level. Control. No well-defined control at this station; rock outcrops for about 100 feet under right-hand end of the bridge; rest of the channel is sand and shifts during medium and high stages. Discharge measurements. Made from downstream side of bridge. Floods. Levels run to a stake which was placed by Wm. Hessler, observer, at the crest of a flood that occurred during October, 1911, gave a stage of 10.4 feet compared with present datum of gage; old residents report that the crest of a flood during 1888 marked a stage of approximately 1 foot higher than that of October, 1911. Winter flow. Discharge relation affected by ice; flow determined from discharge measurements made though the ice. Regulation. Nearest power plant above the station is at Prairie du Sac, about 40 miles distant; no diurnal fluctuation at this station caused by operation of this plant. Accuracy. Records for year ending September 30, 1914, are good. Discharge measurements of Wisconsin River at Muscoda, Wis., during the years ending Sept. 30, 1903-1904', 1914.

Location. At Milwaukee Street highway bridge, city of Watertown, Wis. Crawfish River enters from the right about 16 miles below and Ocono- mowoc River from the left about 9 miles above the station. Records available. June 18 to September 30, 1914. Drainage area. 964 square miles. Gage. Standard chain gage attached to downstream side of bridge; read twice daily, morning and afternoon, to hundredths; limits of use: hun- dredths below 3.0 feet, half tenths between 3.0 and 4.0 feet, and tenths above 4.0 feet. Control. Composed of heavy gravel in which there is a large growth of grass; bed of river is in itself permanent; amount of grass depends on the season. Discharge measurements. Made from downstream side of bridge during high water and by wading during low and medium stages. Winter flow. Data not available. Regulation. Immediately above the station is a dam with a 10-ft. head, furnishing water to two grist mills, one on each side of the river. Dur- ing periods of low flow the water stands below the crest of the dam, the entire flow passing through the wheels; gage record for such periods shows a diurnal fluctuation; the flow is also influenced to some extent by operation of the "Rough and Ready" dam, about l| miles above the station. Accuracy. Gage height record only fair. Data insufficient for estimates of daily and monthly discharge. Discharge measurements of Rock River at Watertown, Wis., during the year ending Sept. 30, 1914.

ROCK RIVER AT AFTON, WIS. Location. At highway bridge, town of Afton, Wis., about 9 miles above the Illinois state line. Bass Creek enters from the right about three- fourths mile below the station. Records available. February 5 to September 30, 1914. Drainage area. 3,190 square miles. Gage. Chain gage fastened to the downstream side of highway bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to quarter tenths; limits of use: hundredths below 2.0 feet, half tenths between 2.0 and 3.0 feet, and tenths above 3.0 feet. Control. No definite control below gage. River bed consists of gravel and clam shells; and is probably permanent. Discharge measurements. Made from the downstream side of highway bridge during medium and high stages; at low stages by wading. Winter flow. discharge relation affected by ice; flow determined from measurements made through the ice. Regulation. Operation of power plants at Janesville and above causes fluctuations at the gage during low stages. \ccuracy. Rating curve well defined; records excellent except for periods during extremely low water.

Discharge for January, February, and March, 1909, estimated from two discharge measure- ments and observer's notes. MENOMINEE RIVER BELOW KOSS, MICH. Location. At "Grand Rapids" about 4 miles below Koss, Mich., and 3 miles west of Ingalls, Mich. Little Cedar River, draining an area wholly in Michigan, enters from the left about half a mile below the station. Records available. July 1, 1913, to September 30, 1914. Drainage area. 3,790 square miles. Discharge. The flow is computed by the Menominee & Marinette Light & Traction Co. of Menominee, Mich., from the kilowatt output of the generators plus the waste over the dam and gates, considered as a weir. No account is taken of the water through the exciter turbine or waste water over the "trash gate" at the power house. Accuracy. No measurements have been made by the Survey engineers at this plant, but measurements made at Koss during the year ending September 30, 1914, show a close comparison with the discharges as determined at the power house. See results of measurements at Koss, page 415. Cooperation. Daily discharge tables furnished by Edward Daniell, General Manager of the Menominee & Marinette Light & Traction Company. The monthly computations have been made by the Survey. 420 Railroad Commission Report Daily discharge, in second-feet, of Menominee River below Koss, Mich., for the years ending Sept. 30, 1913-1914.

Records available. January 24 to September 31, 1914. Drainage area. 344 square miles. Gage. Chain gage fastened to upstream side of highway bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to quarter-tenths; limits of use: hundredths below 2.0 feet, half-tenths between 2.0 and 3.0 feet, and tenths above 3.0 feet. Control. Gravel; smooth and probably permanent. Discharge measurements. At low stages, made by wading; at medium and high stages from highway bridge. Winter flow. Discharge relation affected by ice; flow determined from measurements made through the ice. Regulation. Logging dams above the gage are so operated that during the spring large volumes of water are released to facilitate log driving; the flow during such periods fluctuates rapidly; flow during remainder of year probably natural. Accuracy. Rating curve well defined; records good. 422 Railroad Commission Report Discharge measurements of Brule River near Florence, Wis. during the year ending Sept. 30, 1914.

January 22 to April 30, and June 1 to September 30, 1914. Drainage area. 518 square miles. Gage. Standard chain gage fastened to guard rail on upstream side of bridge; read twice daily, morning and evening, to half-tenths. Control. Coarse gravel and stones; may shift during periods of extreme high water. Discharge measurements. At medium and high stages made from up- stream side of bridge; at low stages by wading. Winter flow. Discharge relation affected by ice; flow determined from measurements made through the ice. Regulation. River used for log driving in spring; backwater at gage caused by closing of gates of a dam below; observations discontinued during such periods; incomplete gage-height record published probably represents natural flow. Accuracy. Gage height records good except for short periods immediately before or soon after the opening and closing of the dam below the gage.

Location. In sec. 1, T. 32 N., R. 18 E., about half a mile, downstream from the dam of the Wisconsin Public Service Company at High Falls, 1 mile above the mouth of Thunder Creek which enters from the right, and about 14 miles northwest of Ellis Junction. Records available. August 1, 1912, to September 30, 1914. Gage-height record continuous since completion of dam. Drainage area. 585 square miles. Gage. A Barrett & Lawrence hydro-chronograph set out in river about 15 feet from left bank, protected by a large bowlder, and reached by a stone dike. A small glass float in a vertical pipe with holes at the bottom controls the vertical movement of the pencil. The datum of the gage, is approximately 1,037 feet above sea level. Control. A riffle of coarse gravel about 50 feet below the gage; well- defined and probably permanent. Discharge measurements. Prior to November, 1914, made by wading or from a boat; satisfactory only at low stages because of swift current and rough section; after November, 1914, from a cable about one- fourth mile below the gage. Winter flow. Discharge relation not affected by ice as the river for two or three miles below the dam is kept open by the flow of relatively warm water from the reservoir. Regulation. Flow controlled by the operation of the gates and the tur- bines. Water seldom passes over the spillway of the dam. When the gates are closed the flow at the gage varies with the load on the turbines. Cooperation. Gage installed and gage-height records furnished by the Wisconsin Public Service Co.; material and labor for erection of the cable supplied through the cooperation of Mr. Clement C. Smith of Milwaukee, president of the company. Mean gage height for the day obtained from record of the automatic gage; data withheld pending the preparation of a rating curve from which the daily discharge may be accurately determined for the gage- height record beginning August 12, 1912.

Location. At the highway bridge at Keshena, Wis., 3 miles below junc- tion with West Branch of Wolf River, coming in from the right. Records available. May 9, 1907, to March 31, 1909; February 10, 1911, to September 30, 1914. Records published also in United States Geo- logical Survey Water-Supply Papers 244, 264, 304, and 324. Drainage area. 797 square miles. Gag . Vertical staff gage read twice daily up to October 1, 1911; since that date three times daily; limits of use: hundredths below 0.5 foot half tenths between 0.5 foot and 1.5 feet, and tenths above 1.5 feet Same datum maintained since gage was installed. Control. Gravel; smooth and practically permanent. Discharge measurements. Made from the bridge. Regulation. The river and its main tributaries above Keshena are con- trolled to some extent by logging dams. Winter flow. During the winter solid ice cover forms in the vicinity o the gage, causing from 1 to 3 feet of backwater; at times during the winter slush ice and frazil ice collect under this ice cover, making it impossible to make discharge measurements. The ice forms at the falls above Keshena and floats in the river as far as backwater from the dam at Shawano. Accuracy.

Location. At the dam and power plant at Neopit, Wis., a station of the \\ isconsin Northern Railroad, 20 miles north of Shawano. Records available. January 25, 1911, to September 30, 1914. Records published also in U. S. Geol. Survey Water-Supply Papers 304 and 324. Drainage area. 108 square miles. Gages. Vertical staff, head and tail race gages. Determination of flow. An attempt to measure the flow by current meter measurements made a short distance below the dam proved unsatisfactory, and it was decided to rate the turbine and spillway. The power is developed by means of a timber dam about 14 feet high, which backs the water upstream for a considerable distance and forms a service reservoir. The spillway is a rectangular opening about 13 feet wide, which is closed by means of stop planks. Little water leaks through the dam, but considerable passes through the planks when all are in place. The power house is at the dam and is equipped with a 35-inch Leffel-Sampson turbine, belted to a 60-kilowatt generator which is used chiefly for lighting. The turbine takes water from the service reservoir through a rectangular flume, which is 9 feet wide by 6 feet deep, and is lined with smooth planks. The turbine was rated by means of current-meter measurements in the flume. The spillway and leakage through the boards were rated by measurements in the sluiceway. Gages were placed in the pond and below the dam to show the head on the turbine. Readings of the head gage, tail gage, voltage, amperage, and number of planks removed from the spillway, were recorded seven times each day: at 6:00, 7:00, and 10:00 a. m., 12:00 m., 3:00, 6:00, and 10:00 p. m. These readings were then weighted in accordance with the elapsed interval. Accuracy. Discharge measurements made at this station indicate that the records were being carefully taken and that the method of com- putation gave results well within 10 per cent. Cooperation. Station established at the request of the U. S.

January 13 to September 30, 1914. Drainage area. 485 square miles. Gage. Chain gage fastened to upstream side of highway bridge. Read twice daily, morning and evening, to half tenths; limits of use: hun- dredths below 2.0 feet, half-tenths between 2.0 and 3.0 feet, and tenths above. 3.0 feet. This gage is so fastened to a cantilever arm that it is immediately upstream from the crest of a very decided rapids. Control. Channel at the gage section, heavy gravel and rock; permanent; at the measuring section, fine, smooth gravel. On Water Powers to the Legislature 479 Discharge measurements. Made from a cable, about 500 feet upstream from gage. Winter flow. Owing to the presence of heavy rapids at the gage, ice rarely forms except during extremely cold weather, and then the effect on the gage height is small; discharge during such periods determined from discharge measurements made through the ice, at the cable section. Regulation. The several power plants above the station have little storage, so that their operation has apparently no effect on the flow, which is believed to be nearly natural. Accuracy. Rating curve well-defined; the records good. Discharge measurements of Little Wolf River at Royalton, Wis., during the year ending Sept. 30, 1914.
