Excerpt from Stones and Quarries In this small volume an attempt has been made to place before the reader a broad general view of the stone industry, to show what part it plays in the life of the community and to give an outline of the methods and machinery employed in its development. Within the limits assigned to the books in this series it has not been possible to do more than indicate in the briefest way the main features of this great industry and to point out some of the characters of the commodities handled therein. There are branches of the stone industry that take so prominent a place in the activities of civilized nations that separate treatment is required to do them justice, thus Cement manufacture, which obtains its raw material largely from quarries, forms the subject of a separate volume. A certain vagueness about the natural boundaries of the subject will be observable, and such questions as What is to be included in "Stone"? or, Is a stone-mine to be regarded as a quarry? have been answered by the light of convenience rather than that of logic or consistency.

Excerpt from Stones: For Building and Decoration The work herewith presented is based upon the author's handbook and catalogue of the collection of building and ornamental stones in the United States National Museum at Washington. It differs from that work, however, in many important particulars, several new chapters having been added, others rewritten and the whole so far as possible brought down to date. A portion of the added matter is essentially the same, though in a somewhat different form, as originally appeared in the columns of Stone, the American Architect, the Scientific American Supplement, and other of our industrial journals. The writer's experience in preparing the extensive collection in the National Museum, at Washington, as well as its partial duplicate in the American Museum in New York City, has afforded him ample opportunity for becoming acquainted with the quarry products of the country at large, while extensive field trips, particularly in the eastern and extreme western United States, have given him a practical insight into the resources of the regions as well as some knowledge concerning the usual methods of quarrying and working. That there is a demand for a comprehensive and not too technical a work on this subject has been emphatically impressed upon the writer many times during the past few years. How far the pages herewith presented shall supply this demand, it is left for the public to decide. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Safety in Stone Quarrying The Bureau of Mines, in connection with its work relating to the increase of safety in the mineral industries, is investigating quarries and quarrying methods. This paper describes the results of an investigation of safety conditions in stone quarrying - more especially in the quarrying of marble. Its purpose is to point out the chief causes of accidents in stone quarries and to suggest preventive measures and devices. Many of the suggestions are applicable to all types of rock excavation, but relate chiefly to marble quarrying. Accident prevention is considered from three points of view - safety in equipment, safety in quarrying methods, and safety through proper care. The paper also describes methods of first aid in case of accident and includes a list of typical quarry accidents that have come to the writer's notice.

Excerpt from An Ancient Quarry in Indian Territory In many places evidences of manufacture have been observed, but usually the sites are nothing more than small shops where individual implements have been shaped or small masses have been worked up. It is apparent to the student of flaked stone toels that these limited sheps could not have furnished the multitudes of fine Specimens dis tributed over every part of the valley, and that the existence of great quarries must in time be discovered. These quarry sites, if such there are, may be so hidden away in wild and rugged regions and so obscured by forests that the attention of white settlers has never been called to them. An important quarry site, considerably beyond the limits of the province referred to, being nearly 300 miles southwest of St. Louis. Has recently come into notice. It is hardly to be supposed that the flint supply of the Missouri and Mississippi valleys could in any large part have been derived from. This source, for the task of transporta tion would have taxed even the marvelous patience and endurance of our aboriginal workers in stone. The material produced on this site, however, corresponds very closely with that used in the St. Louis region, and a study of the refuse of the quarry shops demonstrates the fact that the classes of tools made are identical in manyin stances with those found so plentifully in that region.

Excerpt from Sandstone Quarrying in the United States In 1914 an agreement was entered into between the United States Geological Survey, the United States Bureau of Standards, and the Bureau of Mines for a cooperative study of the stone-quarrying industry of the country. According to this agreement the Geological Survey is to observe and report upon undeveloped outcrops, the Bureau of Mines to make a study of operating or partly developed quarries, and the Bureau of Standards to make all physical and chemical tests of samples submitted by the other bureaus involved. Safety in Stone Quarrying, Bureau of Mines Technical Paper 111, 1915, and The Technology of Marble Quarrying, Bureau of Mines Bulletin 106, 1916, were the first and second and the present bulletin on sandstone quarrying is the third of a proposed series of papers dealing with various phases of the industry.
