Suggestions to authors of papers submitted for publication by the United States Geological Survey with directions to typists

The present edition, like the others, is intended primarily for Geological Survey authors or prospective authors: it is not the manual of wider scope that Mr. Wood had planned, and it contains none of his new material. If authors outside the Survey shall continue to find the suggestions useful, that will be a byproduct that testifies to the quality of the Survey's standards, which were established early in its history.

Suggestions to authors of papers submitted for publication by the United States Geological Survey with directions to typewriters

The first pamphlet containing suggestions to authors for the preparation of manuscript intended for publication by the Geological Survey was published in January, 1888. This pamphlet was revised and reprinted in 1892. In 1904 the Survey published suggestions for the preparation of geologic folios, and in 1906 suggestions for the preparation of reports on mining districts. All matter of present value that was included in these publications, with much additional material, has been incorporated in the pamphlet here presented. It is hoped that these suggestions will be of general service in improving the form of manuscripts submitted and, by diminishing the work of the editorial revision and correction, in expediting their publication.

Suggestions to authors of papers submitted for publication by the United States Geological Survey with directions to typewriter operators

The first pamphlet containing suggestions to authors for the preparation of manuscript intended for publication by the Geological Survey was published in January, 1888. This pamphlet was revised and reprinted in 1892. In 1904 the Survey published suggestions for the preparation of geologic folios, and in 1906 suggestions for the preparation of reports on mining districts. All matter of present value that was included in these publications, with much additional material, has been incorporated in the pamphlet here presented. The first edition of this pamphlet was published in 1909. The edition now published contains some new material and discusses in greater detail several suggestions that were made in the first edition. In the compilation of both editions valuable aid has been rendered by Mr. Bernard H. Lane, assistant editor.

Natural mineral water of the United States: Section in Fourteenth Annual Report of the United States Geological Survey to the Secretary of the Interior, 1892-1893: Part 2 - Accompanying papers

Aside from the geological interest attached to the subject of mineral waters the facts that within the limits of the United States there are between 8,000 and 10,000 mineral springs, and that the waters from nearly 300 are annually placed upon the market to the extent of over 21,000,000 gallons, at a valuation of nearly \$5,000,000, show plainly that the subject is also one of considerable economic importance. That this importance is an increasing one is evident when a comparison of these figures is made with the figures for 1883, the first year they were compiled. The production then was 7,529,423 gallons, with a valuation of \$1,119,603, and the total number of springs known to be utilized for commercial purposes was only 189.

Twenty-Second Annual Report of the Director of the United States Geological Survey, 1900-1901: Part I - Director's report and a paper on asphalt and bituminous rock deposits

The work of the Geological Survey during the fiscal year 1900-01 was mainly a continuation of that of previous years, described in former reports. The organization was changed somewhat (see p. 48), but in a general way similar results were reached, which added materially to the sum of geologic and geographic knowledge. The detailed record of accomplishment, both in field and in office, will be found on later pages, under the heading " Work of the year" (p. 53). In this introduction some subjects of special interest will receive consideration.
