SEXTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 
OF THE 
BROOKLYN BOTANIC GARDEN 
1926 
“The study of wisdom may always increase 
in this life, because nothing is perfect in 
human discoveries. It is most wretched 
always to be using what has been attained 
and never reach further for one’s self.” 
— ROGER BACON. 
“Tf practical teaching is the foundation of | 
scientific education, I am sure that original 
work is its soul and spirit.” 
— SIR FRANCIS DARWIN.
