European Analyses ot Natural Gases. 
In the following section a considerable number of analyses 
of natural gases from a wide variety of localities and sources 
in Europe are given. These have been collected in the course 
of several months’ work, and are given for purposes of com- 
parison with the Kansas gases, as well as to afford a larger 
collection of such data than may ordinarily be found. We 
hope that they may be found of value. 
No guarantee can be made of the absolute correctness of the 
transcription of either the references or the analytical data. 
Mistakes are very apt to creep in in copying. Much effort has, 
however, been expended in an endeavor to prevent such errors. 
The analyses are arranged in tables immediately following 
the references. With each reference is a number, shown at the 
side of the page, by means of which the corresponding analysis 
or set of analyses may be found in the tables. The year in 
which the analysis was made or published is also shown with 
this number.
