Il6 JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY [Vol. 15 



connected was, willing to pay in case a number of reprints were supplied, 

 it became necessary to change the rates for reprints. Heretofore they 

 have been furnished at cost of printing and the Journal has frequently 

 met financial loss and there has been considerable difficulty in handling 

 the business in connection therewith. In order to avoid the misunder- 

 standing and confusion likely to result from the establishment of two rates, 

 it has been decided to adopt a fiat rate, with a reduction to members. It 

 will be noted that 50 folio reprints may be obtained at a very low rate, 

 but that the prices for all others are higher than heretofore. It is 

 believed that most of the members who desire reprints for wider 

 circulation than the Journal affords will have little difficulty in securing 

 them through the institutions with which they are connected.
