One gallon contains 52.4 grains of solid matter (0.899 gram  
per liter), composed ot sodium sulphate, calcium sulphate, iron  
` sulphate, a little magnesium sulphate, sodium chloride and silica  
and a trace of potassium sulphate.   -
g No nitrates o1· nitrites were detected and only a trace of

It is a weak sulphated ehalybeate water, decidedly acid from * `_·‘,
