End of Second Volume. — It is most gratityinj? to close the second vol- 

 ume of the Bulletin with even greater interest than was manifested a year 

 ago. This is all the encouragement needed to continue the publication of the 

 Leaflet. Better paper has been used, and I am hoping for possibly better 

 halttones also the coming year. All camera fiends will now see their oppor- 

 tunity ! It was only Jifter much hesitation that the price was increased to 

 25 cents, but I may be excused for this expansion which had, of course, to go 

 along with increase of pages and cuts. When the Bulletin arrives at the 

 "paying basis" there will be another expansion — but the price will not 

 be increased again for 99 years. 



Notice to Subscribers. — The change in price may possibly disturb the 

 mailing list to some extent, hence it will be a great favor if the annual fee of 

 25 cents is sent in at once, or the notice sent immediately to remove name 

 when preferred. Tlie Bulletin is sent to no one (jratis. 



The Genus Hy-pho-lo'-ma — This includes several common and interest- 

 ing fungi with dark brown or purple brown spores. The Greek words from 

 which the word Hy-pho-lo'ma is derived, means iceh and frin<ic\ the veil is 

 web-like and adheres to the margin of the pileus. There is therefore no ring 

 or an'-nu-lus. The gills are attached to the stem. The stem is said to be con- 

 tinuous with the substance of the cap; that means, it is not easily separated 

 from it. In Atkinson's Mushrooms Edible and Poisonous there are several 

 beautiful illustraticms of some of the species. The cut of Hy-pho-lo'-ma cap- 

 noi'-des on the last page of this No. was kindly loaned hy Prof. Henderson of 

 the Idaho Experiment Statiim.
