SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 25 
9. Economic Botany. Lectures by the Professor, sup- 
plemented by laboratory demonstrations by the 
Instructors, as a full course for the second term. 
10-11. Applied Mycology. Laboratory work under the 
Instructor in Cryptogamic Botany, as a full course 
extending through the year. 
12-13. Garden Botany. Laboratory study of cultivated 
plants, at the Botanical Garden, under the Director 
and his Assistants, for one or two terms. 
14. Vegetable Physiology. Laboratory work under the 
General Instructor, as a full course for the first 
term. 
It is intended that course 1 shall always be followed by 
course 2, the two being preparatory to other electives. 
For the present, unless special reason to the contrary ex- 
ists, courses 1 and 2 only will be given each year, the 
remaining electives being offered in alternate years a8 
follows: — 
First year (as offered for 1894-5), — 
First term, courses 1, 3, 12, and 14. 
Second term, courses 2, 4, 9, and 13. 
Second year (as offered for 1895-6), — 
First term, courses 1, 5, 8, and 10. 
Second term, courses 2, 6, 7, and 11. 
Students who have taken courses 1 and 2, or have had 
their equivalent elsewhere, are admitted to any of the other 
elementary electives which can be taken without conflict 
with other University work; but students who desire to 
equip themselves as botanists are advised to take the elec- 
tives as nearly as possible in the order in which they are 
offered, and on the completion of the elective courses 
should expect to devote not less than ten hours per week 
through an entire year to some piece of research work, 
selected under the advice of the Professor of Botany.
