Excerpt from Bulletin of the Department of Labor: No. 27, March 1900The purpose Of maintaining in the present investigationas nearly as possible the class Of articles which figured in the former report has been fairly well attained. Exceptions to the rule are most conspicu ous in the groups Cloths and clothing, Metals and implements, and Drugs and chemicals. In the /first group named a number Of articles have been included in the present investigation for which in the earlier report it was impracticable to secure data covering the whole period from 1860, but which appeared as incomplete series. In this list, as compared with the previous investigation, additions are more conspicuous than omissions. In the group Metals and implements there are some omissions, which, however, do not affect the more important articles in the group. In the group Drugs and chemicals the omissions are more numerous. The group was more numerously represented in the preceding investigation than its impor tance would justify. TO avoid an undue weight to this group in the final average it was deemed advisable to confine the quotations to the most important articles.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
