An artesian well south of Florence with a measuring box set under its discharge. The box is the point: somebody was there to find out how much, not just whether.
Shows: A flowing well being gauged, and the gully its own discharge had already cut.
What this does not let you conclude: The figure they got. That is in the Professional Paper this was published in, not in the frame. The album caption records the hour -- 4pm -- along with the roll and the section. Published in a U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper.
