[Professional Paper No. 20.] 



The serial publications of the United States Geological Survey consist of (1) Annual Reports, (2) 

 Monographs, (3) Professional Papers, (4) Bulletins, (5) Mineral Resources, (6) Water-Supply and 

 Irrigation Papers, (7) Topographic Atlas of the United States — folios and separate sheets thereof, (8) 

 Geologic Atlas of the United States — folios thereof. The classes numbered 2, 7, and 8 are sold at cost 

 of publication; the others are distributed free. A circular giving complete lists may be had on 

 application. 



The Bulletins, Professional Papers, and Water-Supply Papers treat of a variety of subjects, and the 

 total number issued is large. They have therefore been classified into the following series: A, Eco- 

 nomic geology; B, Descriptive geology; C, Systematic geology and paleontology; I), Petrography and 

 mineralogy; E, Chemistry and physics; F, Geography; G, Miscellaneous; H, Forestry; I, Irrigation; 

 J, Water storage; K, Pumping water; L, Quality of water; M, General hydrographic investiga- 

 tions; N, Water power; 0, Underground waters; P, Hydrographic progress reports. This paper is 

 the twenty-eighth in Series A and the thirty-fourth in Series B, the complete lists of which follow. 

 (B=Bulletin, PP= Professional Paper, WS=Water-Supply Paper.)
