Excerpt from The Clara Valley, Puente Hills and Los Angeles Oil Districts Southern California
This paper presents a brief description of the oil fields of the region adjacent to the Santa Clara Valley, in Ventura and Los Angeles counties, Cal. Owing to the somewhat limited time available for the field work it has been impossible to go into as much detail concern ing certain of the fields as might be desirable. However; it is hoped that the data here brought together will be of assistance in the future development of the district. Figures of the characteristic or common fossils of the different formations of the district are given in Pls. XXV to XLI. The physical and chemical properties of the oil are treated on pages 203 - 218.
