• In this department we shall, from time to time, recom- } 

 ^ mend books that to ns seem of special value to readers of f 

 ^ this journal. 4 



f I. — Two Books by Grant Allen. ^ 



A There are few books dealing with ecology that we have read with greater ▲ 



•J- pleasure than Grant Allen's "Vignettes from Nature" and 'The Evolutionist at 4 



* Large." The author's style is too well known to need special comment. The y 

 A edition we offer is bound in paper and each volume costs 20 cents. The 40 cents A 

 •J« that brings these two volumes will be well spent. ? 



I II. — Two Books on Seed Dispersal. T 



' Recently we have received numerous inquiries about books on seed dispersal. ^ 



ft The literature on this subject is not abundant, but we are able to offer two small A 



A volumes which are desirable. Deal's "Seed Dispersal," 87 pages, cloth, 40 cents, A 



5 and Weed's "Seed Travellers," 72 pages, boards, 30 cents. It is seldom that one " 



# can get all the literature on a subject for 70 cents I #
