This Column has been established as a place in which 

 it will be possible for men to insert brief notices with a 

 view to securing positions or securing men, either in 



' botany or in smy of the related and applied branches of 



' that subject. 



The use of this Column will obviate the necessity 

 of the extended correspondence by which it has hereto- 

 fore been necessary for a man to announce the fact that 

 he wishes to secure a position. It will be a relief to the 

 heads of departments who have undertaken the trouble- 

 - some and precarious business of securing places for the 

 men who graduate from their institutions. It will be an 

 easy and dignified means by which a young man, or a 

 more advanced worker, may announce his desire to 

 secure a post. 



The men who wish to secure specialists of particular 

 qualifications or instructors with a given line of experi- 

 ence, will also find it expeditious and effective to adver- 

 tise their wants in this Column. 



Those who use the facilities of the Professional Ad- 

 vancement Column will be designated by number, and 

 their names and addresses will be learned only on com- 

 munication with the Editor of The Plant World. 



It is suggested that all notices for insertion here should 

 be confined to a succinct and straightforward statement 

 of training, experience, and other professional qualifica- 

 tions. Additional details should be developed only in 

 connection with the ensuing correspondence. 



Notices should not exceed 125 words. They will be 

 inserted once for 50 cents, three insertions for $1.00.
