Ovn journal has now been issued for nearly fourteen years. During 
this period the necessary expenses of printing and publication have 
greatly increased and the initial subscription price of one dollar a year 
is quite inadequate to cover the cost. As no reduction in the cost

to place the annual subscription price from the beginning of Volume 
15 at one dollar and a half, a rate which will be uniform both for the 
United States and for all foreign countries within the postal union.
