The West American Scientist. 



This Magazine was first issued in lHc"?4, aiui has steadily increased in 

 size and circulation with the rapid improvement and settlement of San 

 Diego City and County, whose j>rowtli within the past few months has 

 been remarkable. Original and Scientific in character, as its name indi- 

 cates, yet of a i)opular style, it n^aches the reading rooms and lil)raries 

 ot many societies, and circulates among a very inteihgent class tlirough- 

 oiit the Pacific Coast, especially in the southern counties. 



It is the first and only purely Scientific Journal of all the 393 periodi- 

 cals ill the state, in fact the only one west of the Rocky Mountains, and 

 it is surely taking the fiont rank with the Popular, as well as the Scien- 

 tilic magazines of the day. 



Subscription price, $] a year. Single copy, 10 cents.
