In accordance with the act of Congress approved August 23, 1912, 

 the entire stock of publications of the bureau, with the exception of 

 a few copies of each available work which have been retained at the 

 Smithsonian Institution for special purposes, was transferred to the 

 Government Printing Office in October, 1912, for distribution from 

 the office of the superintendent of documents on order from the 

 bureau. It has been found that this plan of distribution is highly 

 successful, and, of course, much less expensive to the bureau. 



The correspondence relating to publications, of which 15,070 were 

 distributed during the year, was conducted under the immediate 

 supervision of Miss Helen Munroe, of the Smithsonian Institution. 

 The distribution of the publications may be summarized as follows :
