Excerpt from Tabulated Results of Discharge Observations: Mississippi River and Its Tributaries and Outlets, 1838-1894 The results for the Mississippi have been collected by stations, in order down the river, beginning at St. Paul, Minn., and ending at Head of Passes, La. The tributaries have been placed in the same order, and stations on the Missouri, Ohio and Arkansas are also arranged beginning at the up-stream station; but on all the other tributaries the observations, being very scattering, have been collected by years. The crevasses on the main river are also collected by years. The units of area and discharge for the Mississippi River from St. Louis down, and of the Ohio River, on account of the magnitude of the quantities involved, have been taken as 100 square feet and 1000 cubic feet respectively. The upper Mississippi and the other tribu taries are given in square feet and cubic feet, as originally published.
