	South Fork Holston River Trout Investigations
		Between March 1997 and March 1998, the trout fishery in the South Fork of the Holston River below Holston Dam was sampled to describe rates of growth, survival, natural reproduction, and harvest of stocked and wild rainbow trout and brown trout.
		Tagged rainbow trout stocked exclusively in the lower reach of the river where fishing pressure was less were harvested at a much lower rate (17%), confirming that fishing pressure and harvest regulated the survival of stocked rainbow trout.
		The South Fork of the Holston tailwater trout fishery is unique in Tennessee in terms of the abundance of quality habitat, the contribution of wild fish, high overwinter trout survival, and excellent size structure of the trout populations.

	Report on the Salt and Gypsum of the Preston Salt Valley of the Holston River
		In the middle of this chain of hills of the Holston Valley, lies, beautifully encircled by fertile, indented slopes, and a chain of knobs and spurs, the small, but remarkable valley of the salt works and gypsum quarries of the Preston and King estates.
		On the opposite or south eastern side, the plain is half cngirt by a semi-circular sweep of mbuntain or a crescent-like indentation in Fault in the Strata and to its branches, to which I have already attributed to the peculiarities of the topography.
		Some of these are in the vicinity of the wells, but the chief one is outside of the Salt Valley and near the margin of the river, for the sake of facilitating the shipment of the salt and for the easier accumulation of fuel.
