Excerpt from Contributions to Kentucky Geology: An Indexed Collection of All the Shorter Papers and Reports of the State Geologist Written During the Year 1919 on the Mineral Resources of the Commonwealth; Illustrated With Six-Five Photographs, Maps, and Diagrams The development of the mineral resources of the State of Kentucky, and the expansion of the allied industries has been tremendous during the last year. The total production of crude oil for the whole State, In 1918, was 4,308,893 barrels, valued at $11,128,421.00. In 1919, the total amount of crude oil produced was 9,226,473 barrels, which sold for $24,459,017. The tonnage figures of coal mined in Kentucky have also shot ahead, increasing from 27,809,976 tons valued at $60,297,653.00 in 1917, to 31,530,442 tons valued at $94,591,324 in 1918. Figures covering the various other tonnage values of mineral production In 1919 are t yet available, but are kwn to have expanded In similar proportions. This unprecedented growth has resulted in a corresponding demand for detailed geological Information concerning the mineral resources of this State. To meet this demand the State Geologist has during the year, made a large number of field examinations, results of which have been embodied In several short reports, which have been printed In pamphlet form in the Mineral and Forest Resource series. These paper bound books were Issued in small editions, ranging from 750 to 2,500 copies. They were almost immediately exhausted in edition, and the daily and insistent demand for them since their exhaustion, has clearly indicated the pressing need for their reprint These papers are therefore, brought together here under a single title for the convenience of the interested public. No changes have been made In the separate reports other than those required in resetting of the type, or to correct evident errata of one kind or ather. This edition bound in linen is limited to 2,000. Single copies may be secured by remitting 20 cents in stamps to this office, to cover postage, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
