If, now, limestone of a particular composition be sought, its 

 place in the tables can be readily ascertained. The first step is 

 to find from the " Key to grouping " above, in what group lime- 

 stones of the desired composition will fall. This ascertained, the 

 preliminary scheme immediately following this appendix will 

 show in what states limestones of that group may be found, the 

 limestones being designated by numbers corresponding to those 

 used in the regular " Tables of limestone analyses " which follow 

 the preliminary scheme.
