B. STRATIFIED DRIFT (CLAY), HARTFORD, CONN. OCCUKKENCE OF GEOUND WATEE. 17 water-bearing beds is related to underground drainage as the topog-raphy of the land is related to surface drainage. Over most of Con-necticut the drift is thin and the topography of the bedrock surfaceclosely conforms to the present topography of the land surface, exceptthat it is more rugged and has greater rehef. The bedrock cropsout on many of the hilltops and steep slopes but Hes far below thesurface in the valleys (PL III). Because of the similarity between theforms of the rock surface and the surface of the ground, the directionof underground drainage corresponds very closely to the direction ofsurface drainage. The ground water, hke the surface water, flowsmost rapidly on steep slopes, but because of the resistance offeredby the soil particles it moves much more slowly than the surfacewater and is generally replenished by rainfall before the supply con-tributed by previous rain has been drained away.
