Sometimes called the Wheat State, Kansas is the leading producer of grain in the United States.

Orth Executive Secretary Domestic Geographic Names Board on Geographic Names 523 National Center Reston, VA 22092 For sale by the Distribution Branch, U.S. Geological Survey, 604 South Pickett Street, Alexandria, VA 22304 FOREWORD The U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Board on Geographic Names have a long history of cooperation in establishing uniform usage for geographic names on Federal maps, charts, and other publications. This cooperative effort has been a natural blending of technical talent and responsibility that has been mutually beneficial to the missions and programs of both organizations. The Board on Geographic Names is responsible for establishing official names for use throughout the Federal Government. The Geological Survey is responsible for the preparation and maintenance of the base map series of the Nation's lands and waters and publishes reports based on investigations of our mineral, energy, land, and water resources. In addition to being a principal user of the official names determined by the Board, the Geological Survey with its widely scattered field operations has been a major source of information necessary for making the decisions establishing those names. The basis for the cooperation between the Geological Survey and the Board is the recognition that the standard use of geographic names is necessary for geographical communication. The use of geographic names in language forms a primary refer­ ence system that affects all people almost every day of their lives. Geographic names have strong psychological significance because they have close association with the processes of thought that give people the ability to perceive and under­ stand the world around them. They identify areas of cultural and admin­ istrative responsibility, define political boundaries, and carry legal weight in determining property, mineral, and water rights. "The National Gazetteer of the United States of America" is the result of a long- term effort to provide a standard reference to the Nation's named places, features, and areas. As early as 1892, with the support of the newly organized Board on Geo­ graphic Names and as part of the national mapping program, the Geological Survey began cataloging geographic names and producing a series of State gazetteers "designed as an aid in finding any geographic feature upon the atlas sheets published by the Geological Survey." Compilation was initially done by Henry Gannett, Chief Geographer, under the direction of John Wesley Powell, second Director of the Survey. Gannett was chairman of the Board on Geographic Names from 1894 until his death in 1914. Gazetteers for 12 States, Puerto Rico, Territory of Alaska, and Indian Territory (Oklahoma) were published between 1894 and 1906. However, large-scale topographic mapping, from which the name information for the gazetteers was derived, is a slow process, and inadequate map coverage led to the suspension of the program. In 1976 the Geological Survey again began the systematic collection of geo­ graphic name information at a time when published large-scale topographic maps were available for more than 70 percent of the country. This information com­ prises a major part of the computerized National Geographic Names Data Base. This volume is part of the USGS Professional Paper series, The National Gazet­ teer of the United States of America, and is derived from the data base. Dallas L. Peck Robert C.

Special rec­ ognition is given to Sam Stulberg and Roger L. Payne, who researched and developed the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS); John Findley who provided necessary lead­ ership for the final production of this volume of the gazetteer; and recognition is also given to Judy J. Stella, and Louis A. Yost IV, who developed specific programs and software necessary to format the final copy. Special research, compilation, and data entry contribu­ tions were made by Harold L. Burstyn, Linda S. Davis, Mary Jane LeHew, Tammy S. AAilbourne, Henry Sauber, arid Paul Sorvo.

Which was more densely populated, the free states or the slave states? Where was the higher population of black people to be found?
