Record.—The four quarterly issues, comprising volume two, 
contained 140 pages, or 24 pages more than during 1912. By 
another year this publication should be issued bi-monthly. 
Contributions —Only one number (No. 7) of the Contributions 
appeared during 1913. 
Leaflets —This publication was inaugurated by the appearance 
on April 10, of Series 1, No. 1, and the first series terminated 
with No. 14, on October 29. The period of issue extends, at 
present, from April to October. The great popularity of this 
little leaflet, far surpassing all expectation, has been previously 
noted in the Recorp. 
Announcements—A plan has been adopted of sending out 
notices of courses of instruction, lectures, and other similar events 
by means of a series of Announcements, numbered consecutively. 
‘Two numbers have been issued. 
Booklet of Information.—In December was issued a small 
booklet of “Information concerning the Brooklyn Botanic Gar- 
den,’ comprising eight pages and cover, of convenient size to be 
carried in the pocket, and containing a diagram showing the loca- 
tion of the Garden with reference to all lines of rapid transit by 
which it may be reached. 
American Journal of Botany—The Recorp for January, 1914, 
will contain a full statement of the inauguration of this new 
botanical journal, to be published by the Garden, in cooperation 
with the Botanical Society of America, and to be edited by a 
committee of that society, including two members of the Garden 
staff. At present it is planned to issue ten numbers a year, omit- 
ting the issues of August and September. The full text of the 
agreement between the Botanical Society of America and the 
Garden, touching this publication, will be found on pages 74 and 
76, infra.
