Respectfully, &c, C.L. Anderson Thos. Clark, St. Paul, Minn. Jan. 25th, 1861.Item Preliminary geological map of Minnesota(The Geological and Natural History Survey of Minnesota, 1872) Winchell, N.H.Item Laws of Minnesota, 1872 To Provide for a Geological and Natural History Survey of the State(State of Minnesota, 1872) Legislature of Minnesota1872 Enabling legislation to form the Minnesota Geological SurveyItem Report of Prof. N.H. Winchell, concerning the Salt Spring Lands, due to the State of Minnesota(University of Minnesota, Geological and Natural History Survey of the State of Minnesota, 1874) Winchell, N.H.The whole of the State Salt Spring Lands have been appropriated by the Legislature to the prosecution of the Geological and Natural History Survey of the State of Minnesota, under the direction of the Board of regents of the State University. Upon investigating the condition of these lands, it has been ascertained that there is a large deficit in the amount granted by the General Government. This deficit arises from no fault of the State, or of its officers. The following history is sufficient to show that every step required by the terms of the grant was carefully taken. It is presented to the Board of Regents for their information, and for the purpose of calling the attention of the proper officers to the necessity of taking such measures as will secure to the work for which these lands have been set aside, the whole of the original grant.Item Peat for Domestic Fuel(The Geological and Natural History Survey of Minnesota (MGS), 1874) Peckham, S.F.The elaborate article upon Peat, contained in the report of the State Geologist for the year 1873, will give the reader a very comprehensive statement of the Peat question in general, and especially of that question as related to the interests of the citizens of Minnesota. Therein may be found abundant proof that good Peat-yes, very good Peat-has been found in this State, and while there is no doubt very much more that is worth very little or nothing, there is enough that is good to warrant the supposition that many more localities than have been brought to the notice of the Geological Survey, are likely to yield peats that may prove more or less valuable as they are more or less remote from forests or means of communication with deposits of coal. For this reason the object of the following pages will be to convey information. Firstly-Regarding the appearance and properties of· the different kinds of peat, in order that those interested in the subject may be able to distinguish the valuable from the worthless varieties without unnecessary expense. Secondly-Regarding such methods of preparing peat for domestic purposes as require but little capital and are of most general application. Thirdly-Regarding any peculiar conditions attending the combustion of peat that may be necessary to render its introduction successful.Item A catalogue of the plants of Minnesota(State Horticultural Society, 1875) Lapham, I.A.Item Circular 2.
