1915, 1921, and 1926, and is now again “ out of print.’ Of the 
176 pages issued in the last. four years 64 or over one third have 
various persons for the reprinting of nine other leaflets, with a 
been reprinted matter. We have on hand now requests from 
total pagination of 76 pages. It is suggested that in the future 
a larger sum in the budget be set aside for the Leaflets printing so 
that these old numbers which are now exhausted could be reprinted 
in addition to the regular annual series. 
Distribution of Leaflets to Rural Schools—In the September 
1928, issue of The Science Classroom there appeared an article 
entitled “ Commercial Material for Science Classes.” In this ar- 
ticle, 131 firms and institutions were listed who would supply 
gratis on request material of service in science teaching, such as 
charts, exhibits, or printed material. Through a misunderstand- 
ing the name of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden appeared in this 
list. As a result we were almost swamped with requests for 
material of all kinds, mostly by isolated rural schools, from prac- 
tically all over the United States. Nevertheless, we responded 
to these requests in every case, by sending a selected set of our 
Leaflets which would be helpful in biology teaching. The sub- 
joined list of 68 schools which applied, representing 28 states 
and one Canadian Province, gives an idea of the kind of school 
and the country-wide demand for this material.
