Florida geological survey—14TH annual report 
EXPENDITURES OF THE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY FOR THE 
PERIOD FROM JULY 1, 1920, TO DECEMBER 31, 1921 
The following list itemizes the warrants issued showing the expendi¬ 
tures of the Survey from July 1, 1920, to December 31, 1921. The total 
amount appropriated for the maintenance of the State Geological Sur¬ 
vey is $7,500 per annum. This amount was sufficient for the first few 
years of the Survey, but is wholly inadequate for the maintenance of 
an efficient department under present conditions. All accounts are ap¬ 
proved by the Governor and are paid only by warrant drawn upon the 
State Treasurer by the Comptroller, no part of the fund being handled 
direct by the State Geologist, All original bills and itemized expense 
accounts are on file in the office of the Comptroller, duplicate copies 
being retained in the office of the State Geologist. The paid warrants 
are on file in the office of the State Treasurer.
