the following flow into the Western Dvina: Luchesa with Chernitsa and Obol, Usitsa, and Ulla, the Berupia begins in Mogilev province, and Essa in Minsk. Especially a lot of water flows from this ridge to the Dnzpr and its tributary Pripyat: Orshitsa, Drut in Mogilev province, Berezina, with its numerous tributaries, Gaina with Tsna, with Ilsha, Usha and Svisloch; Then the following flow into the Pripyat: Itich, Sluch with Morochya, Lan, Tsna, Yatsolda and Nina. Right there in Slutsk district, to the north-east of the Nesvizh town, the Nman begins; In its upper course, numerous tributaries flow into it, all of which originate at elevated points of the mountain ridge. The right tributaries of the N%mana are: Uzenka at the very top and Sula, in Minsk province, Bystraya and Isloch in Vil. lips; on the left side flow: Shara with Issa, Zelvyanka, etc. Into the Zam system. The Buga flow from here: Mukhavets, Lena, etc.
Thus, we see that almost all B%loruses originate on this ridge. In addition, the Pripyat receives several tributaries from the south, originating in the spurs of the Carpathians: Slavechna, Ubort, Stviga, Goryn with Sluch, Styr and Stokhod. R. Zap. The Dvina is fed from the north by tributaries originating in the lake region of the northern part of Vit. gub.: Toropa, starting not far from Toropets, Obol, flowing from lakes near Cape Ozerishch®, Polota, Drissa with Nitsa and Solna, etc.
As for the geological structure of the surface of Belarus, this question is still so unclear that only some fragmentary indications can be given. Thus, deposits of Tertiary or Eocene formations are probably found in most of Belarus. In Smolensk province. it covers its entire western part, consisting of yellowish clay, marl and sandstones. In Mogilev province. they occupy the Sozh basin, and in general the southern. and Western parts of the lips; The rocks of almost the entire Minsk province belong to the same form; Here you can find: shale clay, siliceous sandstone, coarse-grained limestone, marl, rubble and hull. breeds The entire Vilna province consists of the same rocks. Mountain limestone deposits occupy the eastern part of the Smolensk lips. are found in the eastern part and Mogilev province, in uy. Cherikovsky and Klimovichi. Much. more often

strata of the Devonian formation fall; they occupy the federal districts of Sfnnensyu, Orshansy, Goretsy, the northern parts of Mogilevsky and Metislavlskato, and are found in the communities in Klimovichsky, Cherikovsky, Rogachevsky, Chaussky, Bykhovsky uy. Rocks of the Vitebsk province. almost all consist of layers of red sandstone of the Devonian form, and finally - in part of Disnenskato u. Vilna city. Layers of a small form are found rarely and, moreover, in a small space; So, they are located in the southern part of Roslavl district. Smolensk province; in Mogilev province. they wind relatively more often, namely: along the course of the Russian Federation B%sedi, Sozh and Iput, in Chaussky district, along the course of the Vori river, near Mogilev, Bykhov, as well as in Bykhovsky and Rogachevsky districts; Signs of the youthful formation are also found in Minsk province. (in Novogrudok district and Rchitsky) and Grodno province. (according to N%man) 10).
On the entire surface of the Belorussey, boulder strata are found, exposed, as well as separate boulders of Finnish and Scandinavian rocks. Boulder strata usually consist of boulder loam, sphromatic or brown clay; This loam, the total thickness of which reaches 5-10 fathoms or more, is located above the vegetation soil; Boulder clay is uniquely distinguished by the fact that it is waterproof. This is a particularly important circumstance that served, most likely, for the formation of swamps and lakes in present-day Florus.
Boulder strata usually also have the so-called under or above them. boulder sand. In the boulder strata there are boulders or erratic stones; The boulder is granite, made from mica, quartz and orthoclase. Since the boulders belong exclusively to the rocks of Alsh, Scandinavia and Finland, theologians have presented many hypotheses about their appearance on the rubbed surface of all of Germany, part of France, and all of North-Western and Central Russia. Recently, geologists have established a hypothesis about the so-called. Ice Age, which took place in all spaces where boulders are blown. The essence of this hypothesis is that in the era before the advent of
