Excerpt from Magnesite in California Originally the manuscript for this bulletin on California's magne site resources was prepared following a special field survey made by the staff of the State Mining Bureau during the spring and summer of 1917. There was an acute demand for domestic magnesite at that time due to the situation brought about by the war in Europe. Besides the present author, the Bureau's engineers participating in that sur vey were: Messrs. Clarence A. Waring, Emile Huguenin, W. Burling Tucker, and Clyde mek. Laizure. Lack of available funds for print ing prevented publication at that time. Late in 1918 the manuscript was revised, mainly by Mr. Waring (since deceased), and again pre pared for publication, but again it was held up for lack of printing funds. With the resumption of foreign importations shortly after the close of hostilities in Europe, there was a sharp break in the domestic production of magnesite. Following the placing of a moderate customs duty, coupled with the expanding growth of the plastic trade, the situation has improved materially for the domestic producers of magnesite, particularly in California. There is a healthy demand for the Californian mineral because of its adaptability for plastic purposes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
