Notes of 

General Interest 



The General Printing Act, approved January 12, 1895, created the 
Office of Superintendent of Documents, and defined the duties of the 
Superintendent. One of these duties was the preparation of a 
monthly catalogue, provided for as follows : 

" Section 69. A catalogue of Government publications shall be pre- 
pared by the superintendent of documents on the first day of each 
month, which shall show the documents printed during the preceding 
month, where obtainable, and the price thereof." 

The first issue under this provision was made for the month of 
January, 1895, being numbered one (1) of the series, and the issue 
was continued in practically the same form (that of Governmental 
author by department) up to January 1, 1906 (no. 133), when the 
form was changed to Governmental author by issuing office. 

In December, 1897 (no. 36), a new and very useful feature, an 
index, was introduced, and beginning in February, 1900 (no. 62), 
the catalogue was further improved by making the index cumulative 
from January to June and July to November, with a yearly index in 
the December number. 

With these additions, and as a result of the careful work which 
was put upon it by the catalogue force, the Monthly catalogue 
assumed an important place on the reference shelves of the libra- 
ries and became a handy manual for all persons interested in 
United States Government publications. In fact, from the returns 
received from the libraries in answer to questions relative to the 
usefulness of the publications of this Office, it is evident that the 
Monthly catalogue has been more widely used and more highly 
prized than either the Document catalogue or the Document index. 

It was not the intention pf Congress, however, to have the work 
of cataloguing done in duplicate. Its purpose in legislating was to 
provide foi^a " Comprehensive index,'' or catalogue, which should be 
the permanent official record of all Government publications both 
Congressional and Departmental ; a " Consolidated index " to the 
numbered Congressional documents and reports, instead of numerous 
indexes distributed through the volumes composing the four series — 
that is. Senate documents. Senate reports. House documents, and 
House reports, and a Monthly catalogue to be issued "on the first 



3 



•^ 137815 



4 July, 1907 

day of each month," and which should show " the documents printed 
during the preceding month, where obtainable, and the price 
thereof." 

This legislation for a Monthly catalogue really contemplated a list 
of available publications, to be issued promptly, and to tell where 
they could be obtained and whether free or at what cost. 

Obviously the Catalogue as Issued up to the present time has not 
strictly complied with this law, as it has been composed mainly of 
entries for documents and reports which were not " available " at 
any price. 

In order to comply more strictly with the law and make it pos- 
sible with a limited force of trained people to issue the Document 
catalogue and Document index more promptly, and in view of the 
fact that these same experts must be used in the reoi'ganization of 
the Superintendent of Documents' Office, it became necessary to 
eliminate from the Monthly catalogue those valuable features which 
were not specifically directed by law, and which only a law and an 
additional force of experts would warrant. 

The sacrifice of the cumulative index was one which economy and 
the avoidance of duplication demanded. No doubt it was valuable ; 
but since it delayed the issue of the more important bibliographical 
publications, its elimination was considered wise. 

The dropping of this feature necessitated a less involved form of 
entry, and, as an experiment, the issuing office was chosen. There 
is a diversity of opinion as to the advisability of this experiment, 
even with those who are unanimous in their condemnation of the 
removal of the index. 

After careful consideration of the subject, and the Office being 
still in a condition of reorganization which would not warrant 
action looking to the reinstatement of the old form and index, no 
matter how advisable that might seem to many, the issue in its 
present form is submitted for your generous criticism. 

The main feature in this new form is the subject arrangement, 
rather than that by Governmental author, which, without an index, 
was voted to be too cumbersome, although it possessed many advan- 
tages. The form of subject headings used in the Document cata- 
logues of this Office has been adopted for use in the IMonthly cata- 
logue so as to secure uniformity in the subject treatment of the pub- 
lications. References will be made to the subject so that the publi- 
cation will be fully covered. The typography has been only slightly ' 
changed in order to use machines in the composition. The paper is 
of a much better quality, and it will be the endeavor of this Office, 
as in all its publications, to have the presswork and other mechanical 
operations first class, that the catalogues may be not only accurate 
but easy of reference and pleasing to the eye. 

No publication will be entered which is not " obtainable." In the 
past, entries made for certain i>ublications which had been printed 



July, 1907 5 

but were not obtainable, have caused the various publishing bureaus 
endless annoyance, and it is to avoid this difficulty that the titles 
of such publications are omitted. These titles will, of course, 
appear in the Document catalogues. 

The asterisk (*) and a price indicate as formerly that the work 
can be purchased at this Office at the price named. In cases of dis- 
tribution or sale by the publishing office an obelisk (t) will appear, 
indicating that application should be made direct to that office. Even 
in this way we will doubtless present many titles of books which, 
when called for. will not be sent on account of a limited edition or 
because a large edition has been exhausted ; but we shall endeavor 
to give information which will lead to the procuring of a book 
rather than to useless correspondence. 

The cover pages will be used for advertising purposes and will 
not be paged into the monthly issues, and the monthly issues will 
not be made up for volumes. 

Some space will be devoted each month to book talks and notes of 
pecial interest, and it is hoped that in this way much valuable in- 
ormation relative to old and current publications may be circulated. 



This issue of the catalogue contains entries of numerous valu- 
able publications. The Yearbook of the Department of Agricul- 
ture for 1906 is now being disti'ibuted. The price fixed by this 
Office is a nominal charge for a volume containing many valuable 
articles (as will be seen by an examination of the list of contents 
included in the entry on the second page of the catalogue, under the 
heading "Agriculture Department") and which is substantially and 
neatly bound in durable blue cloth, profusely illustrated, and printed 
on first-class paper. The fact that 500,000 copies are annually 
printed under the law for distribution by Congress and the Agricul- 
ture Department is an indication of the popularity of the volume 
among farmers. It is extremely difficult for this Office to keep on 
hand for sale a sufficient stock to supply the constant demands. 



Games of North American Indians, by Stewart Culin, is the title 
of an 846-page, large octavo volume which is stated on the title- 
page to be an " extract from the Twenty-fourth Annual Report of the 
Bureau of American Ethnology." It forms, in fact, the larger part 
of the Report volume. As the title indicates, the work is one of 
unusual interest, for the development of a nation is largely reflected 
in its games. Numerous plates and text figures add greatly to the 
interest of a work of this character, and the policy of the Bureau 
is to spare no time or labor in perfecting its illustrations. 



6 July, 1907 

On the back cover of this catalogue will be found some " Important 
Information," which will aid in ordering documents from this Office. 
We are somewhat hampered in our business intercourse by the usual 
and seemingly unavoidable red-tape, b.v restrictive legislation, and 
by ignorance of the functions of this Office by the library world and 
the general public. It is hoped that by continuing to publish these 
bits of " Important Information " we will avoid exasperating delays 
and perplexing complications.

Topographic sheets— 

Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the 
United States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected with- 
out reference to political divisions, and are designated by some promi- 
nent town or natural feature found on them. Three scales are used, 
1 : 62,500, 1 : 125,000, and 1 : 250,000. These correspond, approxi- 
mately, to 1 mile. 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear inch on the map. 
The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in height by 11.5 
to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width varying with 
the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the 
reverse of each sheet. 

About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has 
been mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, 
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia 
are completely mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Sur- 
vey at 5c. each : but in lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same 
sheet or of different sheets, the price is 3c. each. In no case can 
orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless the sum remitted solely for 
topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Notes of 

General Interest 

The July issue of the Monthly Catalogue, in its new arrange- 
ment and more attractive dress, was received by those to whom it 
is sent gratuitously with scarcely a word of either condemnation 
or praise. The letters of commendation received are so few that 
they are conspicuous. It would have been much more satisfactory 
to this Office had it received several hundred complaints, as it would 
have indicated that the librarians and others profiting by the gener- 
osity of the Government took at least enough interest in the pub- 
lications they were receiving to protest against any change which 
they deemed unwise. 

We are not asking for compliments, but a candid expression of 
opinion, favorable or otherwise, would be appreciated ; whereas 
silence indicates a marked indifference as to what changes are made 
or what is attempted. 

One of the criticisms which we received related to the omission of 
titles of publications not available, the writer fearing that their 
omission would seriously affect the librarians' knowledge of what 
publications should be received by designated depositories. Such 
fears are groundless, because of the fact that with each shipment 
sent to a designated depository a carefully prepared printed In- 
voice is forwarded, which can now be relied upon as listing every 
publication printed at the Government Printing Office and *' made 
for distribution " since the date of the previous invoice. 

Prior to the carefully planned campaign which this Office has 
carried on in order to secure everything possible for the libraries, 
there was no one with any say in the matter who appreciated the 
advantages of printing everything possible for the libraries, and 
consequently many omissions occurred. 

Such a state of affairs no longer exists. The officials of the Gov- 
ernment Printing Office are earnestly working with us to supply 
everything which the law contemplates shall be sent to depositories, 
and it will be seldom that anything is overlooked In the future. 
Careful checking of these invoices and the filing of them for refer- 
ence will insure first-class information as to the output of the Gov- 
ernment Printing Office. 

Not long ago a pamphlet was sent out to the depositories showing 
what annual and serial publications should regularly be sent them. 

To quote from a note in the invoice under which this pamphlet 

43 



44 August, 1907 

was distributed : " The list is arranged by Departments and pub- 
lishing offices with the series stated briefly thereunder. No attempt 
was made to give exact titles, but their popular designations are 
entered with references to their position, either in the sheep-bound 
Congressional set or in the annual report volumes." 

In order to make this list serve a double purpose, an explanation 
was attempted in the same invoice showing how it could be used 
in determining which publications would be, in the future, under 
the provisions of the new law of March 1, 1907, sent out unnum- 
bered, although Congressional in character. The printer made the 
sentence read " numbered " instead of '* unnumbered," and thereby 
lost the whole point of the paragraph. It is here reprinted in its 
<!orrect form : 

Commencing with the publications of the Sixtieth Congi-ess. first 
session, the titles designated as " in the sheep-bound set " will be 
received unnumhered and bound in a manner "as directed by the 
Joint Committee on Printing." (Public No. 153, 59th Congress, 2d 
session. Session Laws, p. 1012.) 

In this same invoice attention was called to the lack of interest 
In the publications of the Superintendent of Documents' Office mani- 
fested by the librarians, as follows : 

" I am reminded that the returns from our question circulars 
would indicate that the librarians, and especially those of depository 
libraries, find the catalogues of this Office of no benefit to them, as 
not half of the libraries questioned reported, even though they were 
threatened with being dropped from the list if they failed to do so. 

" None of the depositories were held under this ruling and all are 
still receiving catalogues, but it is a question as to whether the 
Government should continue to print and distribute, at an enormous 
expense, library aids which are not appreciated or desired." 

The following able editorial, referring to the above, appears in the 
August number of the Library Journal : 

" We were obliged last month to confess to ingratitude or care- 
lessness on the part of librarians in failing to order certain books 
reprinted at A. L. A. request. We regret to record a still more dis- 
couraging instance. The new Superintendent of Documents, Mr. 
Post, is doing his best to give libraries what they need and want, 
and he has wisely asked that those librarians who wish the public 
documents catalogs should answer the circular inquiry which he 
has sent to the depositories. So large a proportion have failed to 
make any reply that he would be justified in inferring that the valu- 
able catalogs of his Office are neither needed nor wanted. This 
would be far from the truth. Such lack of courtesy and apprecia- 
tion is not creditable to librarians, and we hope this hint, in connec- 
tion with Mr. Merrill's article elsewhere, will be a sufficient word to 
the wise." 

The article by Mr. William Stetson Merrill referred to is enti- 
tled " Utilizing Government Documents," and mentions this lack of 
interest on the part of librarians and gives some good advice relative 
to the relations between the libraries and the Government. 



August, 1907 45 

In the course of his article he says : 

" I can not conceive that any library should wish to have the 
Government catalogs of public documents discontinued or made less 
comprehensive than they are now, and it seems probable that the 
neglect of certain libraries to reply to the Superintendent's cir- 
culars was due rather to oversight than to deliberate disregard. 
None the less, many did not reply, and the Superintendent has drawn 
his own conclusions from that fact." 

"At the Newberry Library we have found public documents of the 
Utmost use in nearly every line of reference work, and the Govern- 
ment indexes to them are indispensable. The work which the Gov- 
ernment is doing in indexing these publications is just so much labor 
and money saved to the libraries of this country. If there are 
librarians who find the Government indexes and catalogs of no use 
to them, this fact of itself proves that these librarians know little 
of the valuable matter that is contained in the Government publi- 
cations or have never learned to use the guides which we now have to 
it. The time will come when they or their successors will appreciate 
what they are now neglecting. Should the work of the Government 
in this direction be discontinued or retrenched, we shall find it diffi- 
cult to have it resumed after its loss has come to be appreciated, 
as it surely will be." 

1): H: * * * 

" The neglect of the Government indexes referred to by the Super- 
intendent discloses the fact that apparently librarians have not 
waked up to the value of public documents or have not bestirred 
themselves to render their contents available to the public." 
***** 

" Libraries in the past have been educational and recreational in 
their scope. Their function in the future is destined to embrace 
commerce, statesmanship, and applied science to a far greater degree 
than they have heretofore done, and in performing this service they 
can not afford to overlook the official publications of our country 
and of other countries." 

It is very necessary that the librarians understand that the Gov- 
ernment is not anxious to develop a subject unless it is desirable, 
nor will the ignorant or careless disregard of its efforts to make 
public documents useful, discourage or deter it from pursuing the 
course mapped out for its educational endeavors relative to the 
usefulness of public documents. But even Government officials, 
equipped with an extended knowledge of the subject of public docu- 
ments and possessed of deadened sensibilities so that indifference and 
ingratitude go unnoticed, can accomplish little unless they have the 
cooperation of those through whom the work must be done to reach 
the general public. 

The day is not far distant when librarians who now refuse to re- 
ceive Government publications will follow in the lead of the progres- 
sive few and demand and retain all the Government literature they 
can procure ; but in the meantime it would be well for the library 
world if they paid closer heed to what is transpiring in the Office of 
the Superintendent of Documents in Washington. 



46 August, 1907 

If you do not like the Monthly Catalogue, say so and say why, 
and if you are pleased with it in its new form, an expression of 
your opinion would be appreciated. 

It is the privilege of every librarian to aid in popularizing Gov- 
ernment publications in order to make available the facts and 
figures which annually cost over $5,000,000 to publish, and possibly 
three times that amount to compile. 



Through an error of judgment in the bindery, the July catalogues 
were stitched with a very fine wire which cut the paper and allowed 
the pages to drop out of the center. The mistake was discovered 
too late to make any change, but it will not occur again. 

The Government Printing Office is turning out work which com- 
pares favorably with that of the best commercial shops, and it is 
the desire of the Public Printer that, with superior equipment and 
expert labor, the output may become a standard. 

Such errors as the poor registration and uneven printing in the 
July catalogue, as well as the unfortunate mistake in stitching, are 
usually carefully guarded against and seldom occur. 



The Government Printing Office employs at present in the work 
of actual printing and binding three thousand one hundred and eight 
(3,108) persons, and in the administrative divisions, including 
clerks, messengers, watchmen, etc., five hundred and seventy-one 
(571) persons. Of the latter number one hundred and twenty-six 
(126) are connected with the Office of the Superintendent of Docu- 
ments, engaged in cataloguing, indexing, selling, shipping, and com- 
piling public documents. 



Ever since the issue, in 1903, of the " List of Publications of the 
Agriculture Department, 1862-1902," there has been a constant 
demand for the other departmental lists, of which series the Agri- 
culture list was No. 1. Had it not been for the necessary reorgani- 
zation of the Office of the Superintendent of Documents some of the 
other lists would have been issued before now, but as it is they are 
in comparatively the same incomplete state as they were a year 
and a half ago. 

The work as outlined for these departmental lists involves the 
careful listing and indexing of all the publications of each of the 
Executive Departments and independent publishing offices, and the 
compilation and issuance of this information, arranged by Depart- 
ments, and uniform in every respect with the Agriculture issue. 

This plan will some day be carried out, and by degrees the neces- 
sary statistics are being gathered, but it is work of such magnitude 
that considerable time will be spent in the mere collection of mate- 
rial before it can be edited or published. 



August, 1907 47 

To satisfy the repeated demands of those interested in public doc- 
uments for some sort of a list which will indicate what completes 
a certain set or what constitutes a collection of a given publishing 
office, it has been decided to issue a " Checlilist " which shall con- 
tain entries in the simplest form for all the publications of the 
United States Government, arranged by (1) Departments, (2) bu- 
reaus, (3) series. 

The old Checklist, issued in 1895, proved one of the most popular 
works ever published by this Otfice, and the edition was soon 
exhausted. A reprint would have been made but for the fact that 
a revised and elaborate edition was in contemplation. 

It has been further determined to issue the Checklist in advance 
sheets, and their publication will begin in the near future. Each 
publishing office will be separately treated, and space will be left on 
the sheets to allow for corrections or additions. These sheets will be 
sent out to the libraries and publishing offices with the request that 
they give this Office the benefit of their criticism and supply it with 
any additional information which they may possess. 

In this way a list should be evolved which, when finally issued, 
will be an authentic and complete bibliography of United States Gov- 
ernment publications. 

That the United States Government lacks a comprehensive cata- 
logue of its many valuable publications is indeed deplorable, but 
that it does not possess anything like a complete collection of these 
records is certainly culpable. 

The library in this Office, which contains the largest collection 
of United States Government publications in the world, lacks many 
volumes known to have been printed and doubtless many more 
which are unknown. Day by day, however, additions are being 
made, gathered from the enormous returns of the Departments and 
some libraries. This library is, of course, the basis of all the woric 
connected with the compilation of catalogues and the distribution 
of public documents, and its collection and careful classification 
have made a comparatively complete list a possibility. It is hoped 
that all librarians will take up this matter and cooperate in an effort 
to compile a genuine " Checklist " of United States Government 
publications. 



It has been supposed that Senate Document No. 119 of the Six- 
teenth Congress, second session, being a " Report of the Secretary of 
State on Weights and Measures," was never printed, and a state- 
ment to that effect was made on page 17 of the " Tables of, and An- 
notated Index to, the Congressional Series of United States Public 
Documents," issued by this Office in 1902. 

A copy has since been found, dated February 22, 1821, and this 
Office has had it bound with Senate Document No. 118 of that 
session, which is assigned to Serial No. 45. Reference is also made 
to this document in the 1895 edition of the Checklist on page 20. 

Several other important corrections to the " Tables and Index " 
have been found, notice of which will be published in the future.

Topographic sheets — 

Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the 
United States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected with- 
out reference to political divisions, and are designated by some promi- 
nent town or natural feature found on them. Three scales are used, 
1 : 62,500, 1 : 125,000, and 1 : 250,000. These correspond, approxi- 
mately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear inch on the map. 
The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in height by 11.5 
to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width varying with 
the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the 
reverse of each sheet. 

About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has 
been mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, 
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia 
are completely mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Sur- 
vey at 5c. each ; but in lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same 
sheet or of different sheets, the price is 3c. each. In no case can 
orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless the sum remitted solely for 
topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Notes of 

General Interest 

It Is rather a common thing to hear public documents sneered at 
as useless lumber. Such sneering is done, however, by persons who 
know nothing of the subject, though sometimes they are persons who, 
because of their positions, should have the knowledge which they 
lack. This is the 153d number of the Monthly catalogue, and there 
has been no number issued which did not announce the publication 
of many documents of real practical usefulness to large numbers of 
citizens. 

While this is true, It is also true that the present Catalogue an- 
nounces a rather unusual number of such documents. 

There is a new and revised print of the perennially popular 
" Horse book," of which Ck)ngress at its latest session ordered a 
quarter of a million additional copies, making a total issue of more 
than a million. 

It is a little late to be printing the Census of 1790, the first 
census of the United States, but it is a fact that a very Important 
part of it is now first printed. Synoptical tables were printed more 
than a hundred and ten years ago, but since the patriotic societies 
have stimulated the study of genealogy there has been a growing 
demand for the publication in full of the names and places of resi- 
dence of the heads of families as taken by the United States mar- 
shals in 1790, and this is the publication which is now being made. 
The British in 1814 burned the records for several of the States, 
but the majority are still extant. Those now printed are for the 
States of New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maryland, and others will 
follow. The names for each State are printed in a separate book, 
each one having an alphabetical index. These books will be sold 
by the Census Bureau only, and there will be no free distribution, 
even to the depository libraries. Applications for them should be 
made directly to that Bureau. 

Prisoners and juvenile delinquents in prisons is the title of an- 
other Census Bureau publication, a special report of interest to 
students of sociology. This one Is sold by the Superintendent of 
Documents. 

Since the passage of the free-alcohol law, bureaus of the Agri- 
culture Department have been actively engaged in acquiring and 
disseminating information as to the production and use of the 

81 



82 Monthly Catalogue 

cheap alcohol, from which great results are expected as an eco- 
nomical fuel. The title of this month's publication on the subject is : 
Tests of internal-combustion engines on alcohol fuel. It is a 
pamphlet of 89 pages, illustrated by 20 plates and 13 text figures. 
The conclusions of the boai'd of scientists by which the tests were 
made are decidedly favorable to alcohol as a fuel in preference to 
gasoline. 

These conclusions will interest all who have the aiitomobile craze, 
and perhaps even more interesting will be found the new Special 
consular report on Motor machines. This gives information and 
opinions from American consuls the world over on the condition 
and prospects of the motor industry, boats as well as cars being 
reported on. 

Part 4 of the Reports of American military' observers attached 
to the armies in Manchuria during the Russo-Japanese War is an 
extensive medical report, fully illustrated. The mangling of men in 
great wars gives the healing profession its greatest opportunities 
for acquiring knowledge. 

The Library of Congress issues a third and enlarged edition of its 
List of books relating to trusts. 

The long-delayed Report of the Governor of Hawaii for 1906 
contains nine new large-scale maps of the more important islands of 
the group. The engraving of these maps has caused the delay in the 
issuance of the report. 

The Manufactures Bureau issues a special report on the English 
cotton industry. Though England produces no cotton, it produces 
over 90 per cent of the world's output of cotton cloth. 

Congress at its latest session directed the Labor Bureau to pre- 
pare a report on woman and child labor in the United States. As 
a preliminary publication, the Bureau issues a compend of the laws 
of the several States on this important subject. It is brought up to 
the latest practicable date. 

The Fisheries Bureau presents an interesting monograph on Un- 
utilized fishes and their relation to the fishery industiy. 

There is a newly revised edition of Dr. William Tindall's standard 
treatise on the Origin and government of the District of Columbia. 

The four new Water-supply and irrigation papers of the Geological 
Survey treat quite fully the water resources of Georgia and the 
surface-water supply of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River, 
the Missouri River, and the New England watersheds for 1906. It 
may surprise some readers to know that the Survey rates water as 
the most important mineral resource of the United States. 

The numerous publications of the bureaus of the Agriculture De- 
partment are always intensely practical. By no other organization 
at home or abi-oad are the results of scientific research so directly 
ajjplied to the material good of the community. 

The agricultural list for the month is notably strong and useful. 
Besides the bulletin from the Experiment Stations Office on alcohol- 
fuel already mentioned, there is a thick pamphlet from the Chemistry 
Bureau giving the methods, of analysis of the National Association 



September. 1907 83 

of Official Agricultural Chemists ; also, from the Biological Survey, 
a Compend of the game laws of the various States and Territories 
for 1907; also, from the Plant Industx-y Bureau, a complete and 
voluminous schedule of the American varieties of garden beans, 
which are very much more numerous than most people are aware 
of ; also, from the same bureau, a bulletin on Cold storage of small 
fruits; also, from the Public Roads Bureau, a bulletin for which 
the material was collected by great labor, on Public-road mileage, 
revenue, and expenses in United States in 1904 — the total mileage 
being given as 2,151,570 miles, or enough to go around the world 
almost 100 times, but of all these millions of miles of roads only 
about 150,000. or 7 per cent, are improved ; also, from the Forest 
Service, circulars on Strength of wood as influenced by moisture and 
on Chemical methods of utilizing wood. 

The eaviler will find it difficult to put his finger on an unpractical 
or even an untimely title in these items selected from the September 
catalogue. A search of the whole catalogue would be equally un- 
availing. 



Appendix G to the 16th annual repox't of the Interstate Commerce 
Commission (1902) was not issued with the report, but parts 4, 5, 
and 2 were separately issued in 1903 in the order here given. These 
parts were subsequently issued as Congressional documents, being 
parts 3, 5, and 6 of House document 253, 58th Congress, 2d session, 
the three parts bound together as volume 73, dated 1904. Parts 1 and 
3 of Appendix G are listed for publication in the Congressional series 
as parts 2 and 4 of House document 253, 5Sth Congress, 2d session, 
to be bound as volume 72, but that volume has not yet been issued, 
and it is not known when it will be issued. Neither have parts 1 
and 3 yet been issued in any other form. 



February 1, 1904, in the 58th Congress, 2d session, an order was 
passed for printing the Journals of the Confederate Congress. It 
was estimated that the work would make eight volumes, and it was 
accordingly listed as Senate document 234, 8 parts, each part to make 
a volume — volumes 25-32 in the " sheep set." This estimate was 
carried into the Document index for the 58th Congress, 2d session. 
When document 234 was completed it was found to fill only seven 
volumes instead of eight. Consequently there is no part 8 of docu- 
ment 234. no volume 32 of Senate documents, 58th Congress, 2d ses- 
sion, and no serial number 4617. A " dummy " with an explanatory 
inscription is needed in the place of serial 4617 on the shelf, and a 
correction of the Document index (serial 4752) by striking out the 
entries for part 8 of Senate document.234 on pages 69, 385, and 489. 

It is not at all surprising that this error should occur in the 
Index, for it was necessarily compiled and published long before 
document 234 had been printed. 



84 Monthly Catalogue 

In the same Index, at pages 101, 440, and 493, Fisheries bulletin, 
volume 23, 1903, is listed as one volume. It was subsequently issued 
in three volumes, and in the Public Documents Library its serial 
number, 4744, has been split into three and appears as 4744, v. 1 ; 
4744, V. 2, and 4744, v. 3. This Office tries to foresee these incorrect 
estimates and changes of purpose of authors and publishing bureaus, 
but it is not possible to see very far into this kind of a millstone. 



Those publications noted in the catalogue which are marked by an 
asterisk (*) and for which a price is quoted are sold by the Super- 
intendent of Documents. Those which are marked with an obelisk 
(t) are distributed by the offices which publish them, usually free 
of charge, but sometimes by sale. 

Persons intending to do business with this Office will find it to 
their advantage to read " Important information " on the last page 
«f the cover of this catalogue.

Geological Survey. 

Note. — The publications of tlie United States Geological Survey con- 
sist of annual reports (restricted to one volume each, beginning with 
report for 1902), bulletins, Mineral resources, Professional papers, and 
Water-supply and irrigation papers, which are intended for free distri- 
bution : and maps, Monographs, and folios of the Geologic atlas and 
the Topographic atlas of the United States, which are sold at prices 
ranging from 5c. to $11.00 each. A wholesale rate has been established 
for topographic and geologic folios, whenever the sum transmitted 
solely for folios at the wholesale price amounts to at least $.5.10 ; that 
is, a discount of 40 per cent will be given whenever 34 or more folios 
that sell singly for 25 c, or their equivalent in higher priced folios, are 
ordered at one time. Address the Director of the Geological Survey, 
Washington. 

Topographic sheets. See name of place under which sheet is 
issued. 

Note. — The Geological Survey is making a topographic map of the 
United States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected with- 
out reference to political divisions, and are designated by some promi- 
nent town or natural feature found on them. Three scales are used, 
1 : 62,500, 1 : 125,000, and 1 : 250,000. These correspond, approxi- 
mately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear inch on the map. 
The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in height by 11.5 
to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width varying with 
the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the 
reverse of each sheet. 

About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has 
been mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, 
Connecticut, Rhode Island New .Jersey, and the District of Columbia 
are completely mapped. Sheets of- the regular size are sold by the Sur- 
vey at 5c. each ; but In lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same 
sheet or of different sheets, the price is 3c. each. In no case can 
orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless the sum remitted solely for 
topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Notes of 

General Interest 

This number of the Monthly catalogue will be sent to several hun- 
dred libraries which are not now on our regular mailing list. If 
librarians can make use of the Catalogue and desire to have their 
libraries supplied in the future, they should notify us at once, giving 
plainly their address. 

Unless such a request is received, future issues will not be sent 
This applies only to those libraries which are not now on the regular 
mailing list for the Monthly catalogue. 

The edition is limited to 2,000 copies, and it is our desire that 
every copy be placed where it will be of the most service. Back 
numbers from July, 1907, will be furnished on application. 



Several valuable suggestions have been received and incorporated 
in the Catalogue. It has been found impossible to comply with the 
requests in many instances, but the suggestions are none the less 
appreciated. 

We are endeavoring to make the Monthly catalogue the medium 
for transmitting, to those interested, help in the study of United 
States Government publications. 



For years the Library Commissions of the various States, as well 
as hundreds of the librarians themselves, have besought this Office 
to relieve them of their unused surplus of Government publications, 
for which they found no market, either by exchange or sale, and 
which they did not feel at liberty to destroy. 

Limitation of storage space and lacli of competent help to handle 
the documents properly compelled the Superintendent of Documents 
to accept only a small portion of these proffered returns. Even with 
repeated refusals and every attempt being made to discourage the 
librarians in this respect, over 3,000,000 books, pamphlets, and cir- 
culars have accumulated and are now occupying valuable storage 
space in this office. 

At last, it is possible to throw wide the doors and invite the re- 
turn of useless Government publications from all sources, and at the 
same time offer to the libraries of the country hundreds of useful 

121 



122 Monthly Catalogue 

documents from the heaps uix)n heaps now used only as dust 
collectors. 

Under date of October 1, 1907, the lists and circulars connected 
with this great clearing-house or exchange scheme were sent out to 
every library in the country, the name of which could be obtained. 

Over 6,000 sets of these information circulars were disposed of, 
and the libraries were requested to fill up the blanks and return 
them as quickly as possible. 

The returns so far are gratifying, although not as many have re- 
plied as were anticipated. Usually, when anything is offered free, 
there are plenty to demand the product. Perhaps many did not 
reply because the matter outlined entailed a little labor. 

However, this campaign will succeed and in the end we will have 
the libraries of the country in possession of just those publications 
which they desire and can use to advantage, and those which to 
some are of little or no service will find their way into the proper 
fields. 

It is necessary, in dealing with so large a number of libraries, to 
establish certain rules for supplying publications. In order to 
simplify the work in this Office, and at the same time provide a con- 
venient and uniform blank for applications, the following form was 
adopted, which is printed 10 to a sheet, and made up into pads of 
50 sheets each.

Enter but one title on a block, and do not run beyond the per- 
forated lines.tt 

o By this is meant that a block when filled out should represent 
but one publication, whether it be an annual, a serial, or a titled 
publication of a miscellaneous nature. The entry should describe 
but a single publication, be it a year, or number, or title. 



October, 1907 123 

Duplicate copies of these " want " lists should be retained by the 
library for checking purposes, as no detailed invoice will be sent 
with shipments. 

Great care should be taken in transcribing the titles. Be sure 
they are accurate. 

Where possible use series titles only (such as Geological Survey 
bulletin, no. 203). 

In the case of the Congressional series, the serial number is all 
that need be given. 

Always return a full sheet, even though only one block is used. 

Requests will be filled in the order of their receipt. No requests 
will be considered unless the lists are properly filled out in every 
particular. 

Those books which can be furnished will be promptly forwarded, 
and the " want " slips for those not on hand will be filed for check- 
ing, and whenever any of the publications are received they will be 
forwarded. 

In the future this form of request will be adopted for all " wants." 
This system will provide the libraries with a surer method of filling 
up gaps than previous spasmodic endeavors have developed. 

No letter need accompany these " want " blanks, but the name of 
the libraxy must appear at the top of the first sheet of a list, and 
the lihrary number must in every case he plainly stamped or ivrit- 
ten on each block of a blank which is used. 

Books sent out upon request of libraries are required by law to 
be for public use without charge, are always stamped " Property of 
the United States Government," and must not be destroyed, removed, 
or otherwise disposed of, except as this Office shall direct. 

It will be of service to this Office if you carefully note your library 
number and refer to it in your future correspondence.

On several other occasions we have attempted to write instruc- 
tions or ask questions of the library world and have found that our 
use of the English language was not sufficiently in accord with 
library methods to gain the attention and comprehension which 
were desired. 

In this instance some librarians have inquired if they should enter 
several publications in an annual or a numbered series on a block, 
although the instructions state clearly, " Enter but one title on a 
block." What should have been said? An explanation of the in- 
structions seems to us like painting the lily. Is not the title of a 
book, even though it be issued annually, as distinct for each year as 
though it were worded differently? 

The line " Ship as requested " is for the use of this Office and need 
not be taken into account by the librarians. 

Perhaps a little more extended explanation of the use to which 
these slips are to be put will reveal the necessity of entering but 
one title or the request for one publication on a block. 

Where it is found impossible to supply the publication requested, 
the ^yant slip will be filed under its proper classification to await 
the receipt of the book, and these slips will be checked daily by the 
book receipts, and the " want " slips withdrawn and used as " order 
out blanks " when it becomes possible to supply the work desired.

These " library wants " blanks will be supplied on application, as 
will any of the other literature relative to the clearing-house propo- 
sition, and hereafter requests from those libraries which have re- 
ceived this notification will not be considered unless made on the 
proper forms. Attention to this ruling will save much time and 
avoid needless correspondence. 

A shipment will soon be made to depository libraries. The re- 
ceipt of boolcs for this purpose has been slow for the past few 
months. The last shipment was made July 13, 1007, and the present 
invoice covers all boolis received since that time, except the Stat- 
utes at large, which will be sent as a special shipment as soon as 
Part 3 is received from the Printing Office. 



Users of the Document catalogue will be glad to learn that the 
long-delayed Catalogue of the oSth Congress is at last ready for the 
press, and that the Catalogue for the 59th Congress is in a fair way 
towards completion. The reorganization of the Office, which took 
all the cataloguers away from their regular work, is responsible for 
the late issue of these publications. 



Decidedly the most important and Interesting public document of 
the month is the Twenty-fifth annual report of the Bureau of Amer- 
ican Ethnology. Besides the usual administrative summary of the 
work of the Bureau for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1904, it con- 
tains two extensive and profusely illustrated memoirs by Dr. Jesse 
Walter Fewkes, one entitled " The aborigines of Porto Rico and 
neighboring islands," the other " Certain antiquities of eastern Mex- 
ico." The second paper is considered preliminaiy only, though it is 
indorsed by Professor Holmes, Chief of the Bureau of Ethnology, 
as " a very important contribution to our knowledge of the ancient 
culture of the Gulf States of Mexico." The first memoir is based 
upon personal research and collection in Porto Rico by the author 
during the years 1901, 1903, and 1904, enabling Professor Holmes 
to say that " the data for the report are drawn from the largest 
and most representative collection of Porto Rican archeological 
material in the world. * * * Archeological objects are the main 
sources from which we may now hope to interpret aboriginal Porto 
Rican life in prehistoric and early historic times. Doctor Fewkes 
gives due prominence to this source in his report, bringing, when 
possible, pertinent ethnological and historical evidences to the sup- 
port of the archeological data. By the use of these three methods 
he is able to present a picture of the characteristic culture of the 
aborigines of one of the most important of our Insular possessions." 

The ninth volume of the literal reprint of the " Journals of the 
Continental Congress " has just come off the press. This remark- 
able reproduction, critically edited and annotated in the Library of

Congress, illustrated with facsimiles of rare historical documents, 
and printed from special type on special paper, is sold by the Super- 
intendent of Documents at the amazingly low price of $1 a volume. 

The Report of the Smithsonian Institution for 190G was issued 
during the month. Like the preceding numbers for half a century, 
it gives, in its General appendix, a most valuable and interesting 
illustrated scientific miscellany of more than 400 pages. 

The Census Bureau, in continuation of its publication of the 
results of the census of manufactures taken in 1905, has issued five 
new bulletins giving a statistical view of various industries. No. 81 
relates to shipbuilding; no. 84, to carriages and wagons and the 
steam and street railroad car industry ; no. 85, to pens and pencils, 
buttons, needles, phis, and hooks and eyes, oilcloth and linoleum, and 
turpentine and rosin ; no. 8G, to copper, lead, and zinc, smelting 
and refining; and no. 88, to power employed in manufactures. 
These bulletins are not altogether in figures. The statistics are 
also interestingly summarized in the text. 

The Census Bureau issues also a special report of 372 pages on 
the 1905 statistics of cities of over 30,000 inhabitants. How many 
such cities are there now in the United States? Only 154. When 
the Government was formed, in 1789, there were two — Philadelphia 
and New York — Philadelphia being the larger, but hardly 40,000. 
As estimated in this special report, the 1905 population of New 
York was 4,000,403, and of Philadelphia 1,417.002. The report 
contains also an exhaustive monogi'aph on a very important sub- 
ject — Accounting, and especially governmental accounting. 

Bulletin 101 of the Plant Industry Bureau is a contents table 
of and index to the preceding 100 bulletins of that industrious and 
useful bureau. An index to the mass of scientific material con- 
tained in the first 100 bulletins is something much to be desired, 
but it is also much to be desired that Government indexes should 
have a more modern and compact and convenient form. This 
index departs so widely from the accepted forms as to be almost 
grotesque. Still, any index is better than no index, and this one 
will no doubt be found to have a certain usefulness. 

The Experiment Stations Office, Agriculture Department, has 
issued a small circular on a large subject. It is Circular 76, and 
its title is, " Swamp and overflowed lands in the United State.s, 
ownership and reclamation." It relates, however, only to the States 
east of the Rocky Mountains. In these States it is found, after an 
extensive canvass, that the swamp lands amount, approximately, to 
77.000,000 acres. The question of draining these lands and making 
them available for tillage is not a whit less important than that of 
the irrigation of the arid lands. The subject of draining the swamp 
lands has taken a strong hold on the public mind, and early govern- 
mental action upon it seems to be rather confidently hoped for. 
Circular 76 is therefore timely, and the figures it gives of possible 
profit are fascinating. 

The Geological Survey devotes its Bulletin 313, of 200 pages, to a 
description, both scientific and popular, of one of the chief assets of 



126 Monthly Catalogue 

the State of Maine, namely, its rock-bound coasts and granite 
ledges. 

Land decisions, v. 35, is in the month's list. 

The publications of the Experiment Stations Office relating to 
diet and nutrition have aroused about as much popular interest as 
any class of official documents. An interesting addition to the 
series is the one issued this month, Bulletin 193, giving the results 
of experiments made at the University of Illinois to determine 
which method of cooking makes meat most digestible. Like the 
former publications of the Experiment Stations Office, this one does 
little to bolster any current theory. So far as the new experiments 
may be held to determine the question, one kind of cooking is as 
good as another. Whether fried, broiled, roasted, or boiled, the 
meat was found to digest just about as well. 

One of the most vital subjects nowadays is the purity of the milk 
supply. Animal Industry Circular 117 gives a useful new idea 
concerning it. 

Many teachers and others will be glad to know that the Education 
Bureau has begun the issue of a series of bulletins on various phases 
of educational work. No. 2 of the series is a stout pamphlet of 140 
pages, well indexed. Its subject is Agricultural education, includ- 
ing nature study and school gardens. 

The commendable policy of getting the information gathered by 
Government investigators into the hands of the public at the ear- 
liest moment by issuing voluminous reports in piecemeal, that is, in 
separate pamphlet parts, is steadily pursued. The annual volume 
for the calendar year 1906, entitled "Mineral resources of the United 
States," can not be issued in full for some time yet, but we have 
this month three pamphlet parts of it, which show the 1906 produc- 
tion of salt, of slate, and of tin. From the still unissued report 
on the field operations of the Bureau of Soils for 1906 we have 
pamphlet parts describing and mapping the soil surveys of Blue 
Earth County, and of Crookston area, Minn., Greene County, Ind., 
and Ransom County, N. Dak. 

These are but samples from the October list. Many others are of 
almost equal import and interest. Investigators in many lines may 
find aid in the October documents. 



For several years certain notes of correction have been affixed to 
certain pages in the copy of volume 1 of the 1896 Report of the 
American Historical Association standing on the shelves of the 
Public Documents library. There is apparently no good reason 
why other copies in other libraries should not have the same cor- 
rections, and the most effective way to pass them along is to print 
them here. The first note is in reply to a paragraph on page 1112, 
which reads thus : 

It is to be noted that Richardson, in his valuable Messages and 
Papers of the Presidents, which will be described later in volume 1, 
omits the proclamations, or, rather, notices, that assembled the 



October, 1907 127 

Senate in its special session of July 17 to 19, 1798, wlien Adams 
wishied to secure the prompt confirmation of Wasliington to be lieu- 
tenant-general. 

The note correcting the statement concerning General Washington 
is as follows : 

This is a gross historical error. The nomination of Washington 
had been sent to the Senate July 2, 1798, and confirmed by unani- 
mous vote July 3. July 7 President Adams wrote a notification to 
General Washington, which was delivered to him at Mount Vernon 
on the evening of the 11th by the Secretary of War (James Mc- 
Henry, of Maryland). July 13 Washington wrote his acceptance, 
which was delivei'ed to the President on the morning of July 17 
by the Secretary, and on the 18th was sent to the Senate. On the 
18th the President also sent in a message nominating Alexander 
Hamilton to be inspector-general with the rank of major-general, 
and several other general officers, Hamilton being thus made the 
ranking officer of the Army, second only to Washington. All of 
these nominations except o)ie brigadier were confirmed July 19, 
1798. The special (16th) session of the Senate which began July 17 
and ended July 19, 1798, was not called by proclamation but by 
personal notice, dated July 16, to each Senator. These facts and 
dates are clearly set forth in the Executive Journals of the Senate, 
printed at Washington, 1828, by Duff Green, v. 1, pages 284, 289-293. 

It is thus made plain that President Adams was not compelled to 
resort to a special session nor to any other special means to " se- 
cure " the confirmation of Washington's nomination as lieutenant- 
general and commander in chief to serve during the then expected 
war with France. 

The second note is inserted opposite page 1113 and relates to the 
beginning of the practice of numbering the documents ordered 
printed in the Senate and the House in a continuous sequence during 
each session. In the article quoted from the Superintendent of 
Documents is sharply called to account for not beginning the gen- 
eral numbering of the bound volumes of documents with the Thir- 
teenth Congress rather than with the Fifteenth Congress. Dr. John 
G. Ames, formerly superintendent of documents in the Department 
of the Interior, decided on the point of beginning, and, in fact, 
originated the scheme of a continuous whole number, but the 
writer in the American Historical Association report apparently did 
not know this and intended his criticism for the publisher of the 
second edition of the Ames Checklist of public documents, in which 
the volume numbers were first printed. The particular paragraph 
in page 1113 to which the note is intended as a reply is the following : 

Recurring to the action of Congress itself, it may be said that it 
was not until the commencement of the Thirteenth Congress, in De- 
cember, 1813, that the House of Representatives, which legislative 
branch publishes by far the larger number of docimients and reports, 
realized sufficiently the growing importance and permanent value of 
its own transactions to impel it to introduce systematic methods of 
publication. The House then adopted a consecutive series of num- 
bers, which was applied to its public documents, beginning anew at 
the commencement of each Congress and running uninterruptedly to 
the end of the last session of such Congress. 

The note correcting the statements in this paragraph reads thus : 

These remarks are highly erroneous and misleading. The Thir- 
teenth Congress did not begin its term in December, 1813, nor did it 
16713— No. 154—07 2 



128 Monthly Catalogue 

then first convene. Its second session began in the month named, on 
the 6th day ; but at this session tlie House did not "adopt a consecu- 
tive series of numbers, which was applied to its public documents, be- 
ginning anew at the commencement of each Congress and running 
uninterruptedly to the end of the last session of such Congress." 
The action taken was, first, December 8, 1813, when, on motion of 
Timothy Pickering, of Massachusetts, it was ordered by the House 
that all those documents of the House "which * * * shall be 
printed in octavo fold * * * shall have their pages numbered in 
one continuous series of numbers, commencing and terminating with 
each session." This applied only to octavos, provided for consecutive 
paging, not numbering, and for a new series of page numbers, not for 
each Congress only, but for each session. Six days later, December 
14, Mr. Pickering moved an order " that the documents which were 
the subject of the order of the House of the Sth instant " (that is, 
the octavos), "instead of having their pages numbered consecu- 
tively in one continuous series * * * each session, shall be them- 
selves numbered in a regular series in the order of time in which 
they shall be directed to be printed ; the number of the document 
to appear on every page in addition to the i^age number." If all 
House documents had been octavos, it might have been possible to 
apply a system of serial numbering to the House documents at and 
after the second session of the Thirteenth Congress. But as a matter 
of fact the most important documents, the annual reports from the 
Executive Departments, were presented to Congress in folio form, 
already printed but not numbered. Even up to the end of the Four- 
teenth Congress this was the case. Not until the last day of that 
Congress. March 3, 1817, did both Houses adopt a joint resolution 
requiring that all Congressional documents should thereafter be 
printed in the octavo size. Thus it followed that at the beginning 
of the Fifteenth Congress for the first time did the rule requiring 
the numbering of octavo documents become applicable to all docu- 
ments and the use of a serial system of numbering the bound vol- 
umes become feasible. The document numbering and the volume 
numbering have always been by sessional series, never by series of 
Congresses. 

Libraries which have not a cloth copy of volume 1 of the Ameri- 
can Historical Association Report for 1896 will find it in the "sheep 
set" as serial number 3550, v. 1.

nent town or natural feature found on them. Three scales are used, 
1 : 62,500, 1 : 125,000, and 1 : 250,000. These correspond, approxi- 
mately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear inch on the map. 
The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in heis^ht by 11.5 
to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width varying with 
the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the 
reverse of each sheet. 

About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has 
been mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, 
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New .Jersey, and the District of Columbia 
are completely mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Sur- 
vey at 5c. each ; but in lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same 
sheet or of different sheets, the price is 3c. each. In no case can 
orders be filled at the wholesale i-ate unless the sum remitted solely for 
topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.

Smithsonian Institution. 

Note. — In Its latest price-list the Smithsonian Institution publishes 
this note: "The publications of the Smithsonian Institution are, 1, 
Contributions to knowledge; 2, Miscellaneous collections; 3, annual 
reports; 4, special publications. No sets of these are for sale or 
distribution, as most of the volumes are out of print. The volumes of 
Contributions and Collections are distributed only to public libraries 
and learned institutions in this country and abroad. A small edition 
of the papers in these two series is printed separately for sale or ex- 
change. The Smithsonian reports are distributed by the Institution to 
libraries throughout the world, and may be had by purchase at cost 
from the Superintendent of Documents. The papers printed in the 
annual reports are published separately for free distribution. Pub- 
lications should be ordered by the serial number. Remittances should 
be made payable to * Smithsonian Institution.' An application from 
a library should state the number of volumes in the library and the 
date of establishment, and have the endorsement of a Member of Con- 
gress. Applicants for these publications are asked to state the ground 
of their requests, as the Institution is able to supply papers only as 
an aid to the research or study in which the applicant is especially 
interested." The annual reports are the only Smithsonian publica- 
tions that are regularly issued as public documents. All the others are 
paid for from the private funds of the Institution.

Notes of 

General Interest 

In response to the circulars requesting information and offering to 
receive duplicate and useless public documents or to supply any 
Government publications which are available, we have received a 
great number of replies, which as yet we have been unable to tab- 
ulate, owing to the fact that the convening of a new Congress is at 
hand and our work increased in consequence. 

To all those who have returned their question circulars and re- 
quested documents or information not yet supplied, we would say 
that as soon as possible their wants will be carefully considered. 
To the libraries there is but one Documents Office ; to the Docu- 
ments Office there are many libraries. 



Attention is again called to the " Important information " which 
always appears on the last page of the cover of each issue of the 
Monthly catalogue. If the information therein contained were read 
and digested, there would be fewer delays in supplying publications 
or information. 



" Library wants " blanks will be supplied upon application. It 
would be well for every library which has occasion to make re- 
quests of this Office to have a supply of these blanks at hand, as 
in the future no requests for books will be considered unless made 
upon the proper forms. This is part of a scheme of cooperation which 
will eventually evolve a more harmonious condition of affairs than 
has existed heretofore. It will save a lot of unnecessary and thor- 
oughly exasperating correspondence if all libraries will comply with 
the regulations outlined in the notes in last mouth's Catalogue. 



The United States public document of greatest popular interest 
among those issued during November is probably the report of a 
group of experts on the San Francisco earthquake and fire of April, 
190G, and their effects on structures and structural materials. Re- 
enforced concrete is the material which best resisted the rocking 
action of the quake, and old brick walls, buttressed, or braced with 
band iron, came out much better "than many new structures. 
" Weak and flimsy framing, insufficient bracing, and poor mortar," 
says the report, " were the cause of most of the failures in San 

169 



170 Monthly Catalogue 

Francisco." The experts go into full detail in reporting upon the 
great disaster, and their facts and deductions must be of value to 
builders of structures upon which large sums are laid out with the 
purpose of securing permanence. Not even science can foresee 
what spot on the earth's surface will feel the next quake, and it is 
the part of wisdom to build in preparation for the worst. 

The San Francisco report is printed as Bulletin 324 of the Geo- 
logical Survey, and is illustrated by more than 50 photographic 
views and a map. The Survey makes a strong showing in this 
mouth's Catalogue, with six Water-supply papers and three Bulle- 
tins (about 1,700 pages of text), to say nothing of four atlases, 
several separates, and a hundred or more plates and maps. 

The census of population of Oklahoma and Indian territories (now 
united in the State of Oklahoma) is printed as Bulletin 89 of the 
Census Bureau. This census was taken in record time last sum- 
mer, and shows the otBcial population of the new State to be 
1,414,177. 

Plant Industry Bulletin 111, part 3, furnishes a convincing align- 
ment for laws to prevent .the importation of adulterated seeds. 
Legislation against adulterated seed is general throughout Europe, 
and, " as a natural result," says the Bulletin, " the United States has 
become the dumping ground for the poor seed of Canada and 
Europe." By plates showing high-grade and low-grade seeds magni- 
fied to nine times the natural size, the distinction between clean and 
adulterated seed is strikingly demonstrated. The farmer who 
pays for clover and alfalfa seed and unwittingly sows his land to 
noxious weeds would seem to be a proper subject for legislative 
protection. 

For some years past the agricultural experiment stations have 
been supplying farmers with free lectures giving the scientific view 
of various farm problems. Now another step forward has been 
taken by fitting out the lecturer on tobacco growing with a set of 
40 camera slides- to illustrate his comments. A pamphlet from the 
Office of Experiment Stations gives a syllabus of the lecture and a 
list of the subjects of the slides. 

Circular 115, Forest Service, is a second progress report on an im- 
portant subject, the strength of structural timber, the result of four 
years' testing work in the laboratories of the Service. 

A much-needed and welcome document (Publications Division 
Bulletin 8) is an index to the first 2.50 Farmers' bulletins of the 
Agriculture Department. The Farmers' bulletins are now so nu- 
merous and cover such a wide range of subjects that every library, 
as well as every progressive farmer, should have a full set of them, 
and they are difficult of complete use without an index. 

Bulletin 30 of the Biological Survey is the first part of " Birds of 
California in relation to the fruit industry." It has a pretty col- 
ored frontispiece, showing the California bush-tit and its nest, and 
has also several other bird portraits. The conclusion of the biolo- 
gists is that, with very few exceptions, the birds do more good by 
destroying noxious insects than they do harm by eating fruit. 



November, 1907 171 

Ticks (chiggers) may seem to the average reader a small sub- 
ject for a formal public document, but it is estimated that they 
cost the Southern States no less than a hundred million dollars a 
year by their depredations upon cattle. The discovery of a rem- 
edy for this pest has long been an object of scientific research. The 
present opinion seems to be that the only sure remedy is the com- 
plete extermination of the cattle tick, and that this is possible. 
The latest experiments looking to this end are described and illus- 
trated in Entomology Bulletin 72, now first published. 

Barnacles in the public service are not unheard of, and now we 
have a document devoted exclusively to them. The particular bar 
nacles treated of are found in the show-cases of the National 
Museum, and the series name and number of the pamphlet in which 
the illustrations and descriptions are found is National Museum 
Bulletin 60. 

The Military Information Division of the War Department has 
epitomized the history of the Russo-Japanese War in a single vol- 
ume, and not a large one at that. By means of 167 pages of text, 
an index, and a bunch of maps this great history is put into a 
nutshell, so to speak. 

The second edition of the American Ephemeris and Nautical Alma- 
nac for 1908 is among the month's issues. 

While November saw no monumental work come forth from the 
Government presses, there is much of interest and value to be found 
in the official publications of the month. And this is true of every 
month, the year round, and year after j'ear. 



As it is a current prediction that a bill for the creation of a 
National Board of Health will be introduced at the first session of 
the Sixtieth Congress, it may be of present interest to recall how 
the former National Board of Health was made to die a lingering 
death by slow starvation. The Board was created by an act ap- 
proved March 3, 1879 (45th Cong., 3d sess., chap. 202), providing 
for the appointment by the President of seven members and the 
detail of one member each from the Army, the Navy, the Marine- 
Hospital Service, and the Justice Department. The duties assigned 
to it were to obtain information as to all matters affecting the pub- 
lic health, to advise the departments of the general Government and 
the Executives of the States on such matters, and to report a plan 
for a national public health organization. The act also requested 
and directed the National Academy of Sciences to cooperate with the 
Board. The new Board was organized April 2, 1879. By act of 
June 2, 1879 (46th Cong., 1st sess., chap. 11), an act of the preced- 
ing year which had established a national quarantine system under 
direction of the Marine-Hospital Service was repealed and the 
powers and duties which had been conferred by it were transferred 
to the National Board of Health, for whose work half a million 
dollars were appropriated, but the operation of the act was limited 
to a period of four years. The Board published Annual reports. 



172 Monthly Catalogue 

1879-85, seven in all, the first two for calendar years, the others for 
fiscal years. All were printed as numbered Congressional docu- 
ments, and all but that for 1884 were also printed in a cloth edition 
without document number. In 1884 the Annual reports for 1880-83 
were reprinted by order of Congress, 1,000 copies of each. The 
numerous appendixes to these reports were usually published also 
in separate pamphlets. The Board also made quarterly reports to 
the Secretary of the Treasury, and issued a weekly Bulletin in 
quarto form from July 5, 1879, to July 1, 1882. The final number 
was the first of volume 4. Publication was suspended at this point 
because the printing appropriation had given out, and it was never 
resumed. Sundry supplements to the Bulletin and a numbered 
series of circulars were also printed. The Board was composed of 
eminent men, but it failed to find favor with Congress and it was 
starved to death. For the first few years its annual appropriation 
was $75,000, but by act of August 7, 1882, the Board was directed to 
confine its activities to cholera, smallpox, and yellow fever, and its 
support was limited to such part of an appropriation of $50,000 in 
aid of State and local quarantine authorities as the Secretary of 
the Treasury might allot to it. March 3, 1883, $10,000 was appro- 
priated, but its expenditure was limited to the pay and personal 
expenses of members of the Board. March 3, 1885, there was a small 
appropriation for rent and employees for a term to end the same 
month. On the same date was granted $5,000 for pay and expenses 
of members. August 4, 1886, a similar appropriation was made of 
$60. March 2, 1889, the final appropriation was voted, $1,004 for 
storage of boolvs, records, and furniture to March 4, 1889, and for 
their transportation to the Office of the Surgeon-General of the 
Army, " where they shall hereafter be stored." The act of June 2, 
1879, conferring extensive powers upon the Board, but limiting its 
operation to four years, was not repealed or renewed. The Board 
therefor virtually expired June 2, 1883. 



The following order has been received from the Commerce and 
Labor Department, and, although it does not go into effect until the 
beginning of the new year, it has been thought well to publish it here 
for the information of those interested in the publications mentioned : 
" Ordered, That commencing with January 1, 1908, the Monthly 
notice to mariners, issued by the Coast and Geodetic Survey, be 
consolidated with and made a part of the Weekly notice to mariners, 
issued by the Light-House Board."

Geological Survey — Continued. y" 

Topographic sheets. See name of place under which ^eet is 

issued. 

f 
Note. — The Geological Survey is malsing a topographic map of the 
United States. The sheets of which it is composed are projected with- 
out reference to political divisions, and are designated by some promi- 
nent town or natural feature found on them. Three scales are used, 
1 : 62,50X), 1 : 125,000, and 1 : 2.50,000. These correspond, approxi- 
mately, to 1 mile, 2 miles, and 4 miles to 1 linear inch on the map. 
The size, unless otherwise given, is about 17.5 inches in height by 11.5 
to 16 inches in width, exclusive of the margin, the width varying with 
the latitude. A description of the topographic map is printed on the 
reverse of each sheet. 

About three-tenths of the area of the country, excluding Alaska, has 
been mapped, nearly every State being represented. Massachusetts, 
Connecticut, Rhode Island. New .Jersey, and the District of Columbia 
a)"e completely mapped. Sheets of the regular size are sold by the Sur- 
vey at 5c. each ; but in lots of 100 or more copies, whether of the same 
sheet or of different sheets, the price is 3c. each. In no case can 
orders be filled at the wholesale rate unless the sum remitted solely for 
topographic maps amounts to at least $3.00.
