Vol. 1, part 1, section I of The Mineral Statistics of Canada. "It has been the practice of the Bureau of Statistics since 1920, to issue an annual printed report on the Mineral Production of Canada. This report was comprised to a large extent of the data which had already been issued in bulletin form as statistics for each industry were completed. The final report was necessarily late in being issued, and its main use was for library purposes and for historical research. It also had the advantage of having complete statistics of the Canadian Mining Industry for a year' in one volume.Such a procedure necessitated the preparation of new manuscript, duplication of proof-reading, and extra costs in type-setting and printing. In order to avoid this extra cost, a system has been devised whereby libraries and other similar organizations may file the separate reports in a ring binder as issued, and if they so desire, may have them bound in a volume when the series for the year is complete. The reports have been paged in such a manner that when bound they will correspond to the chapters of the annual printed report hitherto issued, but which will now be discontinued. The following reports will constitute the complete volume on Mineral Statistics of Canada ... I. The Asbestos Mining Industry"--Notice.
