Logs of Wells and Test Holes

The logs of 254 wells and test holes are given on the following pages and are summarized as follows: There are logs of 199 auger holes and of 36 hydraulic-rotary test holes all put down by the State Geological Survey. Drillers logs are given for 7 wells and 12 test holes drilled by private contractors. The samples from test holes drilled by the State Geological Survey were examined and logged in the field. On the logs that follow, those designated "sample logs" were prepared after microscopic examination of the samples in the laboratory and comparison with the field log.
