Announcement of Botany and Forestry. 



The botanical part of this course is devoted to the study 

 of the developmental history of typical species of mosses, 

 liverworts, ferns, and gymnosperms. The alternation of 

 generations and evidences of genetic relationship consti- 

 tute a leading feature of the work. In this course Camp- 

 bell, Mosses and Ferns, will be used; also Goebel, Out- 

 lines of Special Morphology and Classification; Coulter 

 and Chamberlain, Morphology of Spermatophytes ; and 

 Sedgwick and Wilson, General Biology. 



BOTANY. 



FIRST SEMESTER. 



1. Elements of Biology (Plant Life). A study of the prop- 



erties and activities of protoplasm, developmental his- 

 tory, evolution of structure and function, and relation to 

 environment. Tzvo hours. Dr. POLLOCK and Dr. BURNS. 

 Course i is equivalent to the botanical part of Course i in 

 general biology, under which it is described. It is not 

 to be elected separately by first year students, nor by 

 others, except with the express approval of both instruc- 

 tors. 



SECOND SEMESTER. 



2. Elements of Biology (Plant Life"). Continuation of Course 



i, embracing the alternation of generations and general 

 biology and physiology of liverworts, mosses, ferns, and 

 gymnosperms. Two hours. Dr. POLLOCK. 

 Course 2 is equivalent to the botanical part of Course 2 in 

 general biology, under which it is described. It may be 

 taken as a separate course only by express permission of 

 the instructors in charge of Course 2 in general biology. 



4. Morphology of Flowering Plants. Two hours. Dr. BURNS. 

 In this course the embryology and development of flower- 

 ing plants is taken up in a way to connect their history 

 with that of the lower groups studied in Course 2. At-
