NOTE.—The following articles are listed in the order in which they appear in the Atlas. Each article has also been issued separately with a cover (the cover being omitted from Land relief, which see below); later some of the articles were reprinted with slight changes on the title pages and are listed below under the subheads Frost Precipitation, and Vegetation.
Two sections originally intended for the Atlas, one on Cotton issued as advance sheets in 1918, and another on Rural population issued in 1919, are not included in the bound Atlas. A map of Physical features was compiled and drawn in 1914 and 1915, but was never published, only 500 copies being printed and distributed from time to time to persons particularly interested.
