Work has been continuous in these fields, including that of the past summer, which is described in this newspaper report. The bulletins above mentioned are bulletin No. 309, the Santa Clara valley, Puente hills, and Los Angeles oil districts, Southern California, by George H. Eldridge and Ralph Arnold; bulletin No. 317, preliminary report on the Santa Maria oil district, Santa Barbara county, by Ralph Arnold and Robert Anderson; bulletin No. 321, geology and oil resources of the Summerland district, Santa Barbara county, by Ralph Arnold, and bulletin No. 322, geology and oil resources of the Santa Maria district, Santa Barbara county, by Ralph Arnold and Robert Anderson. These reports are issued in octavo form with paper cover; the text is devoted to more or less detailed descriptions of the geology of the areas under discussion especially as it relates to the occurrence of the petroleum; descriptive details of the productive areas, such as lists of the oil companies operating, number of wells owned by each, the thickness of the various sands, depth of the wells, quality and quantity of the oil produced, and other useful data, including chemical analysis of the oils made by the survey and conclusions by the oil geologists concerning the areas in which the indications appear best for further development. Supplementing the text are geologic and land line maps of the districts, and, where the data have warranted it, maps showing the underground geology by means of contours; photographs illustrating certain striking features of the geology or development; and in bulletins 309, 321 and 322, plates illustrating the fossils characteristic of the various formations encountered in the region. By means of these fossils it is possible to identify the formations in adjacent regions where the geology has not been mapped.
