624 ANNUAL RECORD OF SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY. 



Q. INDEX TO THE REFERENCES. 



In the large number of serial works received regularly by 

 mail for "use in the preparation of material for the Record, 

 it has been found expedient to adopt some mode of abbrevi- 

 ating the titles, so as to save both time and space in writing 

 and printing them. For this purpose the different countries 

 have been represented by letters, and the journals numbered 

 as in the following table. Publications referred to only oc- 

 casionally are indicated by abbreviations of their titles at the 

 end of the articles. Where no references are made, it is to 

 be understood that the article is partially or entirely original, 

 and prepared by the editor or his collaborators; in some cases, 

 however, that the quotation has been mislaid or overlooked.
