Excerpt from Bibliography of Petroleum and Allied Substances: 1917 This bulletin is the third of the series of yearly petroleum biblio graphies being published by the Bureau of Mines. The two preced ing, Bulletin 149 and Bulletin 165, were for the years 1915 and 1916, respectively. In arranging the references the same general scheme has been followed, but as in those bulletins, several changes and additions have been made in the classification, the more important being in the classes Development and production and Refining and refineries. German periodicals for 1917 were not procurable and references to articles in those and in other foreign journals that were not available have been credited to the sources from which they were procured.
