LIBRARY OF CONGRESS CARDS Numbers to be used in ordering the L. C. catalogue cards will be found at the end of the titles of the more important monographic documents. The figure following the card number (separated from it by a slanting line) indicates the number of cards required for entries suggested (title entry not included) on the cards. The price of the cards is 2c. for the first card and ^c. for each additional card for the same title ordered at the same time. Remittances should be made to the Librarian of Congress. Cards can not be furnished by the Superin- tendent of Documents. CUMULATIVE INDEX The Index to the Monthly catalogue will be issued separately each quarter and will cumulate for the twelve months ending June, 1912. That is, the September number of the Index is an index to the Monthly catalogue for July, August, and September, the December number is an index to the Monthly catalogue for October to December, the March number will be an index to the Monthly catalogue for January to March, and the June number will be the Index for the fiscal year 1912. Persons desiring to bind the catalogue at the end of the year should be careful to retain the numbers received monthly, as duplicate numbers can not be supplied. HOW TO REMIT Remittances for the documents marked with a star (*) should be made to the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., by postal money order, express order, or New York draft. Currency may be sent at sender’s risk. Postage stamps, foreign money, defaced or smooth coins will positively not be accepted. To facilitate the payment of the cost of documents, the Super- intendent of Documents will hereafter accept coupons issued by him instead of cash. Coupons of the value of 5 cents each are sold in sets of 20 for $1.00. Address order to Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office. No charge is made for postage on documents forwarded to points in United States, Guam, Hawaii, Philippine Islands, Porto Rico, or to Canada, Cuba, or Mexico. To other countries the regular rate of postage is charged, and remittances must cover such postage. Notes of Genera l Intere st Senate document 190, 62d Congress, 2d session, on the fertilizer resources of the United States, is the latest document discussing one of the most important subjects now engaging the attention of economists. Its value is enhanced by plates and map. Forestry in nature study, Farmers’ bulletin 468, is another handy school textbook, first issued by the Agriculture Department in Dec. 1911 and reprinted in Feb. 1912. 5 cents. Interstate Commerce Commission’s Second annual report on the statistics of express companies in the United States, for the year ended June 30, 1910, furnishes several interesting items, including Wells, Fargo & Co.’s $24,000,000 dividend from surplus, leaving the undivided surplus of the combined companies at $59,215,600. The statistics of the 13 important companies are given, the American Company leading all others in amount of business transacted. Court of Claims reports, vol. 46, Oct. 1910 to May 1911, is now in stock. Full sheep, $1.50. Supplement no. 1 to Tariff circular no. 19a has been issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The opinion of Chancellor Pitney of New Jersey in the case of the Glass Bottle Blowers’ Association, Nov. 16, 1908, and the dissenting opinion of Judge Minturn in the same case, have been printed as Senate document 374, 62d Congress, 2d session. Chancellor Pitney is now Mr. Justice Pitney of the United States Supreme Court, succeeding the late Justice Harlan. Senate document 338, 62d Congress, 2d session, is in 2 vols. Vol. 1 contains the Message of the President transmitting the Report of the Em- ployers’ Liability and Workman’s Compensation Commission, in which he commends the Report and advocates the passage of the bill drafted by the Commission. This volume contains also the text of the Report and of the bill, with several statistical tables. Vol. 2 is much larger, containing hearings, briefs, table of cases, and general index. This edition supersedes Senate document 90, 2 parts, and 3 unnumbered pamphlets, which made up the first edition of the Commission’s report. The United States Pharmacopoeia has been published in Spanish. It is not a public document of the United States, but the fact that the Public Health and Marine-Hospital Service has lately published its 5th digest of commentaries on it (House document 184, 62d Congress, 2d session; also, Hygienic Laboratory Bulletin 79) makes it evident that there are Government officials who feel an active interest in it. Experiment Stations Office Bulletin 247 is the latest revision of the Organization lists of the agricultural colleges and experiment stations 531 532 Mar ch , 1912 of the United States, containing information for which there is demand in these days of agricultural development. A list of the arbitration treaties and conventions submitted to and acted upon at various times by the United States Senate has been printed as Senate document 373, 62d Congress, 2d session. Seventy-four such international agreements are in the list. The document gives also a list of 13 arbitration treaties which were ratified by the Senate Feb. 11,1905, but with such amendments that no Administration has thought it advisa- ble to resubmit them to the countries with which they were originally made. To this list of 13 treaties thus amended probably may be added those with France and Great Britain ratified with amendments Mar. 7, 1912. The speech of Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, Feb. 29, 1912, advo- cating amendment of the arbitration treaties with France and Great Britain, has been printed as Senate document 353. It carries also as an appendix the contents of Senate document 373. The 52 State population bulletins of the 13th Census, giving the enumeration statistics of the 48 States, the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico, have been issued as one publication. Price, 65 cents in paper, 95 cents in cloth. The Geological Survey makes a timely contribution to the potash hunt by expediting the publication of Potash salts, summary for 1911, which is an advance chapter from Mineral resources, 1911, this latter being an extensive report which can not be issued complete for months to come. Potash salts, summary for 1911, is a 5 cent pamphlet, giving all the latest potash news, excepting only that concerning the ten-million- ton deposit in the Mohave Desert, which at first appeared in print only in the newspapers, but has since been validated by a reference in the President’s message of Mar. 26, 1912. The Intracoastal waterway, Boston to the Gulf, is one of the many big things which the children of our day may hope to live to see in this irresistibly expansive country. Something of what it will mean may be learned from House document 391, 62d Congress, 2d session, just printed, which describes the section from Boston to Beaufort, N. C. A board of engineers has been considering the subject since Congress authorized and directed a preliminary survey by act approved Mar. 3, 1909. The document has many maps and tables. Plant Industry Bureau Circular 93, The danger of using foreign potatoes for seed, is a word of warning to farmers in the eastern United States who may be misled by the large size and good looks of imported potatoes. The February, 1912, edition of Civil service act, rules, Executive orders, etc., is now in the stock of the Superintendent of Documents. 10 cents. Among the new Census Bureau bulletins issued in March is one entitled Population: United States, which shows several interesting things. One of these is the relative rank of the States in population, which has changed considerably since 1900. California, which was the 21st State, is now the 12th. Iowa has dropped from 10th to 15th. New Jersey has jumped from 16th to 11th. Texas, which was the 6th State, is now the 5th. Mar ch , 1912 533 Missouri, which was the 5th State, is now the 7th. Massachusetts which was the 7th State, is now the 6th. Other equally interesting and’signifi- cant changes are shown. Another valuable feature of this bulletin is a table of the Congressional apportionments from the beginning of the Government. Another feature is diagrams showing graphically the increases of population. One of the late Census Bureau bulletins shows the population of cities and their suburbs—that is, to each large city is assigned the territory assumed to be tributary to it and the tributary population is added to that of the city proper. On this basis some cities gain much more than others, and changes in relative standing result, pother new bulletin gives the population of all incorporated places of ,500 or more inhabitants and tables showing the relative rank of the 50 largest cities at each enumeration beginning with 1840 Very few persons would now guess that in 1840 Baltimore was the 2d city, New Orleans the 3d, and Philadelphia only 4th, with less than 100,000 people. New ork, of course, is at the head of the list from first to last. Chicago first broke into the 50 list in 1850, when it was 25th in rank, with 29 963 inhabitants, being outranked by Lowell, Rochester, Newark, Charleston Washington, and other cities now low down in the list This bulletin.* not numbered but entitled Population of cities, gives many other interesting data and comparisons, including the comparative growth of urban and rural populations. Of the latter it says: “The decrease or slow increase m the rural population is in no sense due to lack of agricultural prosperity. In most of the States showing a decrease or a very slight increase in rural population during the past decade there has been a remarkable increase in the value of farm property.” A 10 cent pamphlet issued by the Biological Survey Bureau as Bulletin 41 is not remarkable for the volume of its information, but for its char- acter It is reference material of a kind not easily found, and therefore small though it is, the book fills a rather large field heretofore pretty much unoccupied. The title is: Chronology and index of the more important events in American game protection, 1776-1911. If you want to find when English sparrows were first acclimated in America when and where was the last great wild-pigeon roost, when and in what States game laws were first passed, what “game ” is by law, etc, etc, this is the book for you. Medical handbook for the use of lighthouse vessels and stations (can- vas, 30 cents) is a manual of plain and simple directions for use in emergencies by Government people whose occupations usually put them out of the reach of doctors. The plainness and simplicity of the directions given may commend the handbook to many who do not live in lighthouses. 5 ^ner^ sources of the United States, 1910: Part 2, Nonmetals; cloth, ?1.25. This important annual report by thg United States Geological Survey is now available. Many of the most important mineral products are not metals. Among these are coal, natural gas, petroleum, cement clay, and stone. We are digging wealth beyond the dreams of avarice °Utin!nthe earth’8 crust- For the second time in the country’s history in 1910 a year’s mineral production exceeded $2,000,000,000 in value ' 534 Marc h . 1912

Geological Survey Bulletin 494 describes most interestingly the New Madrid earthquake of Dec. 16, 1811, which is better understood now than it was at the time of its occurrence. Hon. W. B. Wilson of Pennsylvania, who is a practical miner, Hon. W. C. Redfield of New York, who is a large employer of labor, and Hon. J. Q. Tilson of Connecticut, who is a lawyer, are the members of a special committee to investigate the Taylor and other systems of shop management. They have made a unanimous report, questioning the feasibility of much that is proposed under the general subject of “scientific management” of bodies of workmen. The Committee say that while Mr. Taylor has done much good in working out the details of shop management, nobody has presented to the Committee a system of shop management sufficiently complete and perfect to justify a recommendation for its adoption in entirety. The Committee’s chief objection is to the effort to stimulate the exertions of workmen by timing their operations. The official designation of the Committee’s report is House report 403, 62d Congress, 2d session. Forest Service Circular 205 relates to forest fire protection under the Weeks law in cooperation with the States. The Weeks law is the law establishing the Southern Appalachian and White Mountain forest reserves. Under this law a Government commission is now actively at work acquiring lands for the protection of water powers. As this protection is to be secured by preserving the forests, the protection of the forests from fire is logically the next step after acquirement. There is a new edition of the Judicial code of the L nited States, including all the amendments to Feb. 6, 1912. 20 cents. Senate document 439, 62d Congress, 2d session, is a reprint of Abraham Lincoln’s 1st and 2d inaugural addresses, his message to the special session of Congress called by him July 4, 1861, his proclamation of freedom to the slaves dated Jan. 1, 1863, and his Gettysburg speech of Nov. 19, 1863—a small collection of great documents. Army register, 1912 (50 cents), Navy register, 1912, (30 cents), and Statistics of railways, 1910 (75 cents) are now ready for delivery. May 18 is to be Peace Day. The programme for its observance in schools is to be printed as Education Bureau Bulletin 8, series of 1912. Large orders for copies are being filled by the Superintendent of Docu- ments at $30 a thousand. A “preprint” from the American Library Association’s forthcoming Manual of library economy is Mr. W. W. Bishop's handbook of the Li- brary of Congress. It is a handy manual for librarians, with ground plan illustrations, and professional information not readily accessible elsewhere. American ephemeris and nautical almanac. 1914, is now on sale, price $1.00 in cloth binding. , The income-tax cases in the United States Supreme Court, 1895, when an income tax was declared to be unconstitutional, Justices White and Harlan filing dissenting opinions, and the corporation-tax cases, 1911, when the Supreme Court sustained the law imposing an excise tax on the incomes of corporations, are the two chief judicial precedents Mar ch , 1912 535

Librarians will understand that with the exceptions noted the three prints are identical. PINEAPPLES Chemistry Bureau Circular 57, published May 14, 1910, reported the results of experiments in the preparation of sugared dried pineapples, made in the expectation of producing a new commercial product. The author, Assistant Chemist H. C. Gore, stated in Circular 57 that a method of much promise had been developed, but that another season’s study was necessary before final recommendations could be made. Recently a British Columbia correspondent of the Public Documents Office inquired if the second season’s study had been made and what its results were. The information obtained from the author for the information of the correspondent is perhaps worth printing for the benefit of other readers and correspondents. Mr. Gore has found that the dried product has not held its flavor as well as had been hoped. This discovery has delayed the experiments, which, however, have not been concluded.

PUBLICATIONS OF AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT A prospective customer lately asked the sales clerk of the Public Docu- ments Office how many separate publications of the Agriculture Depart- ment he could supply and what they would cost. It was rather a wholesale question, for which no data had been made ready, but in a couple of hours the efficient salesman was able to give the information that he had in stock about 2,919 distinct agricultural publications, one full set being worth about $650. This is probably the publication record for one Gov- ernment Department—here at least, and probably anywhere. And these are publications which are almost without exception practical, useful, valuable, constantly adding to the health, wealth, and prospeiity of the country. SOIL SURVEYS The soil surveys of counties and areas in various parts of the country, which have been made by the Soils Bureau, Agriculture Department, during the last dozen years, have now become very numerous. There is a large allotment of the first prints or “advance sheets” to Representa- tives of the districts in which the surveys are made, but there are always some interested persons whom the free distribution does not reach. According to the experience of those most familiar with the document service, free distribution, no matter how profuse it may be made, always does fall short of supplying the full demand, and often those who are not reached are those most interested. For the benefit of the many who have not been reached by the free distribution, the Superintendent of Docu- ments, at the opening of the present year, effected an arrangement for supplying the “advance sheets” of the soil surveys at the uniform rate of 15 cents each. These are substantial pamphlets and each one contains a large colored map of the county or area surveyed. The new sales arrangement does not include the pamphlets published before 1912. Occasionally one of these can be supplied, but this can not be depended on. Marc h , 1912 537 All of the surveys of each year are bound together in a i and all the maps for the year are put together in&a lar-e case the tw^’ stituting the Field operations of the Bureau of ’ ° C.°n* tion of which eleven numbers, 1899-1909, have been issued”11^ PUb?Ca' been always for sale by the Superintendent of Documents thTnri^0

Morse also gave assurance that China will readily take twice the present supply. Whether this holds good since that country became involved in civil war may perhaps be open to question. The United States Agriculture Department has not up to the present time published much about ginseng, its reluctance to do so being attri- buted to the fact that the plant has no recognized medicinal or other value in this country. If, however, the Chinese believe it a cure-all, and will get it elsewhere if not from America, there seems to be nothing for us but to meet the commercial demand. This can best be done if the Department shall supply instructions for ginseng culture in which the people will have confidence. Mr. Morse announced in his speech that the Department had a ginseng document in preparation, to be ready in the early spring. Additional information is to the effect that two new publications on this subject are planned. The first, which is now in press and expected soon, is Plant Industry Bureau Bulletin 250, Diseases of ginseng. The second, which it is expected will follow at a short inter- val, will be a Farmers’ bulletin on the general culture of the ginseng plant. If wide circulation should be given to Mr. Morse’s speech a large sale of the new ginseng bulletins would seem to be assured.

SETS OF NATIONAL MONETARY COMMISSION

In the Notes of general interest, Monthly catalogue of United States public documents, Oct. 1911, a detailed schedule of the then forthcoming set of bound volumes of the publications of the National Monetary Com- mission was given and some positive statements were made and pledges passed in terms here reproduced: The contents of volumes 1-23 are definitely determined as above stated. Those of volume 24 are somewhat less certain. The Report of the Commission has not yet been printed, and there has not been any public announcement that it has been drafted or considered by the Commission as a body. It will, however, whether long or short, be the chief feature of the volume. Already two drafts of Mr. Aldrich’s Suggested plan (Document 784), have been printed, and it is intimated there may be still others. All will be found in volume 24. Dr. Hollander’s Bank loans and stock exchange speculation, listed as Document 589, but never printed because the manuscript had not reached the Commission, will be included in the volume, the manuscript having been lately received. These statements were made on the authority of officials of the Com- mission. Such statements are never made in the Monthly catalogue except upon information received from those whose duty it is to know the facts in the case. Twenty-three volumes were issued in accordance with the schedule printed in the October Catalogue, with the single exception that document 589, listed for vol. 24, was included in vol. 20. At this stage it was determined by officials of the Commission to abandon vol. 24 and rebind the copies of vol. 1 so as to include in that volume the Report of the Com- mission with draft of a bill (Document 243) and the Suggested plan, parts 1 and 2 (Document 784), on the ground that as these are the most important documents of the Commission they should be printed in vol. 1 instead of vol. 24. Mar ch , 1912 539 The Superintendent of Documents felt obliged to decline the invi- tation rather pressingly given him to join in the plan to cut the set down to 23 volumes. His pledge in the October Monthly catalogue, following which he had solicited and received orders for 24-volume sets, he felt bound to keep; there was also the further fact that he had already, in compliance with orders received, shipped nearly a hundred sets, complete except vol. 24, and he did not feel inclined to attempt the unwel- come and probably impossible task of recalling these sets for reconstruction. Consequently, there are two permanent bound sets of the publications of the National Monetary Commission. One is the 24-volume set, supplied by the Superintendent of Documents at $45 in accordance with the announcements in the Monthly catalogue and in thousands of circulars widely distributed by the Superintendent of Documents and by the National Monetary Commission itself. This set is bound in dark red buckram. The other set is that of the National Monetary Commission in 23 volumes, dark green buckram. The contents of the two sets are identical, though the arrangement differs. The Commission has lately had printed two pamphlets which are not numbered Congressional documents and are not included in its bound sets. One is an octavo of 50 pages entitled Savings departments of national banks and real estate loans. The other is a quarto of 107 pages, entitled Proposed codification of the national banking laws. Both im- prints are 1912. These have been printed in limited editions for the use of the Commission. The Superintendent of Documents will not be able to supply them. . The existence of the National Monetary Commission ended by limitation Mar. 31. It is not expected that any action will be taken on its recommendations at the present session of Congress.

AN UNOBTAINABLE PUBLICATION The Superintendent of Documents cannot supply copies of the pamphlet entitled Paper pulps from various forest woods. Neither can the Agri- culture Department nor any of its bureaus supply copies of this pamphlet. Requests for it made to any of the bureaus or to the Superintendent of Documents will be unavailing and will cause useless correspondence. Unfortunately, a demand for it has been started by reviews in certain scientific journals to which press copies had been sent in the ordinary routine.

SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION

Not e .—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 of Miscellaneous collections are distributed only to public libraries and to learned institutions and societies in this country and abroad. A small edition of the papers in these two series is printed separately for sale or exchange. The Smithsonian reports are regularly distributed by the Institution to libraries throughout the world, and only a limited number of the volumes remains to supply demands from other sources. No general mailing-list of individuals is maintained. The reports can be had by purchase from the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. The papers printed in the annual reports are published separately for free distribution. Publications 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 Congress.” The annual reports are the only Smithsonian publications that are regularly issued as public documents. All the others are paid for from the private funds of the Institution.
