MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN BULLETIN 13 
GARDEN PUPILS. 
The course for the garden pupils was completely revised 
as outlined in detail to the Board in my July report. Mr. 
Jaenicke, Mr. Thompson and Mr. Ohlweiler are now in 
charge of the various courses required of these pupils, and 
the practical work in the Garden is under the immediate 
supervision of the various Heads of Departments. 
All of the scholarships are now filled, they being assigned 
to the following pupils: Carl Haltenhoff, Peter "Placnder, 
Earl Reed, Fred Grossart, Carl Giebel, and Louis Culling. 
Mr. Nestor L. Phillipi has been admitted as a pupil, paying 
the tuition prescribed by the Board. 
“RESEARCH AND INSTRUCTION. 
Graduate. Professor B. M. Duggar, Ph. D., of Cornell 
University, has been appointed Physiologist to the Garden, 
and is in charge of the Gesdonis Laboratory. Dr. George R. 
Hill, Ph. D., of Cornell University, holds the position of 
Research Assistant. Mr. C. H. Thompson has been trans- 
ferred from the Greenhouse oe to the new position 
of Assistant Botanist. While Mr. Thompson is in charge 
__ of excursions through the Garden and the checking of plant 
- names, a considerable portion of his time is devoted to lines 
of work properly considered as research, and he is attached 
to the Research rather than to the Garden Staff. 
The following hold Rufus J. Lackland Fellowships: J. 8. 
Cooley, A. R. Davis, W. H. Emig, Margaret DeMeritt, and 
L. O. Overholts. In addition the following are engaged in 
research work, most of them candidates for higher degrees: 
Mary gba Ruth Beattie, C. O. Chambers, George R. Hill, 
Jr., F. B. Morgan, W. G. Nolte, W. W. Ohlweiler, M. D. 
Renkenberger, J. R. Schramm, Mildred W. Spargo. 
Undergraduate. No changes have been made in the 
courses offered at the University this year. I have assumed 
part of the lectures in Botany 1, as well as taking charge 
of the five weeks’ work in Botany offered for the first time 
in Zoology 1. I continue to give the course in Sani 
Engineering as in former years. Assistant Professor Coulter 
and Mr. W. W. Ohlweiler as Teaching Fellow have the re- 
maining undergraduate work. The registration in the vari- 
ous courses offered, both at the University and the Garden,
