Excerpt from Letter From the Secretary of Agriculture: Transmitting a Report on the Preliminary Investigation to Determine the Proper Location of Artesian Wells Within the Area of the Ninety-Seventh Meridian and East of the Foot-Hills of the Rocky Mountains I have the honor to transmit herewith, in accordance with the act of April 4, 1890, a report on the preliminary investigation made to determine the proper location for artesian wells within the area west of the ninety-seventh meridian, and east of the foot-hills of the Rocky Mountains. The report covers all the operations of this investigation, but I will have to postpone a full account of the expenditures to a later date, as there are still some outstanding accounts, etc., which must be adjusted before a final report of expenditures is made. I have thought it best however, not to delay the transmittal to Congress of the report covering the scientific and statistical work of the investigation. I may state briefly in regard to the expenditures, that making liberal allowance for outstanding accounts in course of settlement, it seems evident that the entire cost of the investigation, as ordered by the act will not exceed $15, 000.
