Book Description

Excerpt from The Mineral Resources of the Philippine Islands: With a Statement of the Production of Commercial Mineral Products During the Year 1907 Mine inspection should be mentioned at this time as a question for future serious consideration. Up to the present there has been no need of this, but the time is almost ripe for some legislation. A reason for delay in putting the measures into immediate execution is that they would involve the taking of the professional men of the division of mines from more urgent work. The subject is mentioned here simply to guide public thought in this direction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
