are taken, the scale and general style of the map, the dimen- 
sions and cost of single sheets, and the name and addresses of 
the government agent from whom they may be bought. Many 
additional details concerning these surveys, their date of begin- 
ning and ending, their officers, administration, cost, and so on, 
may be obtained from Wheeler’s report, referred to above. 
Each group of sheets is given a distinctive local name for easy 
reference ; this being followed by the official numbers of the 
sheets selected. Orders for copies of these sheets can be sent 
through any importing bookseller; but it is important to empha- 
size certain points. The edition on the lightest paper should be 
selected, when there is any variation in this respect. Particular 
care should be taken to pick out sheets that match in tint of 
' paper and in depth of impression in printing; otherwise, the 
several sheets may not match well when mounted together. 
Blank index maps of each country should be asked for; these 
are generally furnished free or at nominal cost, and are of value 
in giving precise location to the group of sheets when mounted. 
The cost of mounting is often nearly as much as the cost of the 
maps; but it is essential to have this work well done."
