page limit, including advertising matter. Meanwhile, the contributions 

 to the JouRNAiv are increasing and it will tax the Editorial Board to 

 accommodate all the articles that have been submitted for publication. 

 The Board of Editors must warn, therefore, much as it regrets to do 

 so, that authors contributing articles can not expect as prompt publica- 

 tion as was possible in previous years. One of the possible solutions 

 would be to divert as many articles as possible, particularly of a bio- 

 logical character, to some other botanical journals. The newly-estab- 

 lished organ of the Ecological Society may provide some room for 

 contributions of an ecological character. Unfortunately, most di the 

 botanical journals are also overcrowded and relief from that quarter 



may be very small. 



For Board of Editors : 



B. E. Fernow.
