		Its source is probably the gravels of an old buried river, traces of which are observable in Douglas Hill, and in benches on the west side of the valley north of where Shackelford Creek enters it.
		These are evidently the old river courses, buried in places 100 feet deep under the rocky debris that had slid from the mountain side during a cataclysm of nature, causing new channels cutting deeper into the rocky formation, to be formed.
		Water is obtained from the North Fork of the Salmon River through a ditch carrying 3800 inches, having a length of 4 miles and a 50-foot pressed overflow dam impounds the water at the intake.

		In the Kern River field, Tidewater Oil Co., though it had enjoyed more success than any other California operator with bottom-hole heaters, entertained no illusions that such approach would be an ultimate economic answer for the large-scale application of heat.
		At Kern River, Tidewater Oil Company was rumored to have increased production from an undisclosed number of shallow wells from a pre-steaming 100 barrels daily to a post-steaming rate of 430 barrels a day.
		It was, as far as anyone knew, the first acknowledgement by any oil company to the general public of the use of the recovery method that would make it possible to produce billions of barrels of additional oil from California fields.

		Blair (1948:117) notes that this road from Austerfield on the River Idle to Tadcaster near York, which incorporates the stretch from Tadcaster to Doncaster mentioned above, was a primary route between Northumbria and Mercia in the seventh century and of great importance for the security of both regions.
