in the herbarium, the living plants in the conservatories and planta- 
tions, and the various types of gardens, are readily accessible.

hensive collection of publications on every phase of gardening and 
plant life, may be consulted freely at any time. 
A. Courses for Members and the General Public 
Although the following courses are designed especially for 
Members of the Botanic Garden, they are open (unless otherwise 
specified) to any one who has a general interest in plants. Teach- 
ers are welcome. Starred courses (*) are open also for credit to 
students of Long Island University, and are described in the cur- 
rent Long Island University catalog. In harmony with an agree- 
ment entered into in the spring of 1935, the Botanic Garden, upon 
recommendation of the Chairman of ie Biology Department of 
Long Island University, offers a course scholarship to one student 
of the University. 
Unless otherwise specified, all “ A’ courses are free to mem- 
bers,¢ but the individual class exercises are open only to those who 
register for the entire course. Of others a fee is required, as in- 
dicated. In courses where plants are raised or collected, these 
become the property of the class members. 
FALL Courses

with demonstrations. This course deals with the principles to be

tory fee. Wednesdays, 11 a.m., November 6 to December 4.
