It is also tonic and of value where iron is indicated. 75. Gordon's Mineral Springs About half way between Calistoga and Lakeport, in Cobb's Valley, Lake County, lie Gordon's Springs. They are romantically situated in the heart of a mountain and forest region. The climate, too, is beautiful. Invalids pronounce it mild and balmy. During Summer months the temperature ranges from 72" to 90 F. The springs are at an elevation of about 3,000 feet. The principal spring flows about three hundred gallons per hour, having a temperature of i00" F. The waters are sparkling alkaline, having antacid and aperient properties. For chronic albumenurea and cystitis these springs have a high reputation. In acid dyspepsia the water is recommended before meals. A pleasant resort has been established in this mountainous region, and it is worthy of remark that persons suffering with chronic bronchitis, catarrh, asthma, and early stages of consumption, do well at this altitude among the pines.
