Excerpt from Geological Survey of Louisiana: Oil and Gas in Northwestern Loiusiana With Special Reference to the Caddo FieldDuring the last session of the State Legislature a small sum of money was appropriated for finishing the Survey work already more or less in hand. But after paying the printing bills on reports in press the sum left for investigation was very small. However, a few months were spent in the field during the fall of 1908 by the writer and Mr. Perrine. An appropriation of $1, 500 was made by the United States Geological Survey, permitting not only more work to be undertaken by the persons just mentioned, but also the hiring of Mr. Hopper, who remained in the field till the middle of February, 1909.In preparing this very preliminary statement we have drawn freely upon the facts obtained both by State and National funds. The brevity of this report is owing to the need of some information on the subject at once. Again our State funds are not in a condition to admit of attempting to publish a more detailed report. Such a paper is, however, being prepared for publication by the United States Geological Survey.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
