under which aru 2,!)54,138,000
tons.
The difference between the es-
I iii'.ii nl Mr. ('ameron and the
geological survey, both made up-
on the same data, is due to the
dillereiici in the .standard of
workability. Mr. Cameron limit-
ed himself to tile coal less than
one thousand feet in depth and.
as a rule, to coal over three feet
thick. . irresponding to such coal
as is being mined iu Oklahoma
with financial usccess under the
somewhat adverse conditions hold
ing there today. The geological
survey adopted the limit of depth
three thou.-and feet., and the
Ihckniess. fourteen inches, fixed
in the regulations for the classifi-
cation and valuation of public
coal lands, approved by you Apri
10, 1909.
The reasons for these standards
are explained in a special bulle-
tin. In order, however, that his
calculations can be compared di-
rectly willi |hosi ol Mr. ('aim i on,
tin' coal over tin feet thick and
«|ess than one thousand feet deep
has been estimated separately and
appears in the table under the
h ailing ' [{, ailily available." The
remainder is under the heading
lie verse coal. The .survey
found the acreage of "readily
available" coal to be 217,382
acres, which is somewhat lower
than Mr. Cameron's estimate of

acres. Including the " r
