PART II 

 METHODS OF RESEARCH 



A few pages on the technics of plant bacteriology will be 

 of service to the student. These are not designed to do away 

 with the need of reference books. Therefore, at the beginning, 

 the student is advised to read as much as he has time in the fol- 

 lowing standard works, and to consult them daily as problems 

 arise. The list is by no means exhaustive and does not include 

 all the good books, but is more than sufficient probably for the 

 beginner.
