B. Sperry; one into Goodhue county pre paratory to the full examination of that county during the coming season; one over the line of the Northern Pacific railroad supple mentary to the water-examinations of the Red River valley earlier in the season, and for geological observations, and one into Morrison county for the purpose of preliminary geological observations. The results of these reconnoissances are given in the following report, so far as they can be made useful at the present stage of the survey. In the survey of Hennepin county it was found necessary to em brace some parts of Ramsey, and during the past season the survey of that county was completed, and is herewith reported, with the usual maps and diagrams. Rock and Pipestone counties, the most southwesterly in the State, have also been examined, and are reported in the same manner.
