Instructions to Borrowers 



The Division of Agricultural Instruction has a collection of lan- 

 tern slides on agricultural subjects for educational purposes. One 

 set of sHdes at a time is loaned for use for one week after receipt 

 thereof, on condition that the borrower agrees to pay all transporta- 

 tion charges and to be responsible for slides lost or broken from the 

 time they are received until they arrive at this division. 



Slides should be ordered by the number and the title of the set 

 wanted, and the borrower's express office as well as his post office 

 address should be given. Shipments are usually made by parcel 

 post, and a bill for charges sent to the borrower. Return ship- 

 ments must be prepaid. 



Since the demand for these lecture sets is usually larger than the 

 division can supply, a borrower should have his application reach 

 this division as long as possible before the slides are needed, stating 

 in order first choice, second choice, etc. Reservations are made 

 long in advance.
