To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The association of salt with gypsiferous beds is discussed under the caption of Gypsum Cement Plaster. As there pointed out, both gypsum and salt are closely related to the "red beds" or Permian formation. It may be taken as a guide, in looking for deposits of salt and gypsum in New Mexico, to first select the horizon in the red beds series; then at or near their base or some associated basin prospect for those minerals. Having determined the salt and gypsiferous horizon it is an easy matter to... account for the saline marshes and lakes with their attendant deposits. Saline and alkali solutions collecting in impervious basins and after extreme desiccation of the water, will deposit their solid materials when the point of saturation is reached; the gypsum is always precipitated first. Big Salt Lake of Estancia plain with its adjacent basins has now reached the period of excessive old age. What now remains of those saline basins and gypsiferous dunes, is nothing more than the lingering of another White Sands plain and is only a little farther advanced in age.
