Revised edition. "This bulletin applies to that part of the United States in which ordinary farm crops are grown largely under irrigation. It describes methods practiced in the more important commercial strawberry-growing districts in the irrigated regions of the West; it aims to aid those familiar only with local and perhaps unsatisfactory methods, as well as inexperienced prospective growers. The fundamental principles of the irrigation of strawberries are substantially the same as those which apply in the growing of other crops. Details of operation must necessarily be governed largely by the character of the crop grown. Since strawberries in the humid regions frequently suffer from drought, which causes heavy losses in the developing fruit, the information may prove suggestive to many growers in those localities who could install an irrigation system at small expense. Detailed information is also given as to soils and their preparation, different training systems, propagation, planting, culture, the leading varieties, harvesting, and shipping. Methods of using surplus strawberries for preserves and jams, for canning, and for flavoring for various purposes are given." -- p. 3

Revised edition. "By using larger equipment many sugar-beet growers have greatly reduced their requirements for man labor and at the same time have been able to accomplish more work in a given time. This bulletin tells how man labor can be saved and production speeded up in the several American sugar-beet regions through the use of large machines and units of power." -- p. ii

Introduction: It is not intended to give here a full account of the geology of the district but rather to present certain new features that were observed during the season, with enough of the general geology, which is already well known and fully described in other publications, to make them understandable.

From preface: This paper represents the partial fruition of a broad plan to reexamine critically the subject of Basin-Range structure.

Revised edition. Report discussing best practices for the cultivation of strawberries in the South Atlantic and Gulf Coast regions of the United States. Topics discussed include varieties, soil preparation, mulch and fertilizers, irrigation, harvesting, and diseases and insect enemies.

Revised edition. Report discussing the importance of the prickly pear cactus as an emergency food source for cattle during times of severe drought. Although the plant typically has inedible spines, spineless varieties do exist, and it is recommended that farmers cultivate prickly pear for use during droughts.

From Introduction: "The Mexia-Powell fault fields have long held the attention of the oil industry, and this report proposes to present information on these fields and to interpret it for the consideration and guidance of all persons concerned in further development of the area. Detailed study of this field was made primarily to obtain a better working knowledge of the major features, involving structural conditions, the character and nature of the Woodbine pay sand, and the source of water."

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines covering accidents that happened in metal mines located in the United States including statistics for injuries, fatalities, kinds and causes of accidents, and operational data, such as number of mine workers and shifts worked.

Report compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Mines including statistics on fatalities in coal mines located in the United States as well as data regarding the various operations (e.g., number of miners employed and average production). The information is organized into tables for comparison and the text draws some overall conclusions in the summary.

Report published by the U.S. Bureau of Mines which is a compilation of accidents in quarries located in the United States with data regarding the number and kinds of accidents as well as information about the mining operations (e.g., number of men employed, kinds of quarries, amount of work performed, etc.).

From Scope of Report: "The present bulletin therefore can be considered as one of series which, taken as a whole, will present a comprehensive picture of the characteristics of crude petroleum. Its main purpose is to present analyses of more than 300 typical crude oils, all produced within the United States."
