stream bed to a cattle-watering trough a few yards below. A small
amount of iron-stained, lime-cemented gravel has been formed along
the creek below the spring. The sandstone near by is much veined
by secondary material, and some serpentine float was noticed. The
formation, however, seems to be of sandstone and shales similar to
those at Madrone Spring, but these materials dip less steeply toward
the northeast than they do at the latter place. The following analysis,
tabulated with one from Madrone Spring, shows that the water of the
Goes Spring is the less strongly mineralized and that it is secondary
alkaline in character, magnesium being present.

BANES SODA SPRINGS (MONTEREY 7).
Banes Soda Springs are situated on the coast about 6 miles south-
west of the Cruikshank mines, in southern Monterey County. Car-
bonated water issues for a considerable distance along a bluff that
here borders the ocean and has deposited notable amounts of lime
carbonate. At the main spring a terrace several feet in height has
been built by the iron-stained material that has been deposited
from solution.
The water apparently "derives its contents of calcium and of
carbon dioxide from limestone masses that are associated with the
other altered sediments along this portion of the coast.
