ONE of the notable text-books of the year is " Foundations 

 of Botany " by Mr. Bergen, whose " Elements of Botany " 

 has come to be the most widely used recent text-book on 

 the subject in the higher schools and academies of the 

 country. 



The "Foundations of Botany" is sufficient to prepare 

 for any college or university which accepts botany as an 

 entrance requirement. It offers an extended and compre- 

 hensive course for schools that wish to devote an entire 

 year to the subject, and provides the teacher who has only 

 a minimum amount of time, with the distinct advantage of 

 a considerable option as regards the kind and amount of 

 work which he shall present to his classes. It represents 

 the latest and most advanced methods of botany teaching, 

 combining a standard text liberally illustrated with a com- 

 plete course in laboratory work and a key for the study of 

 systematic botany. 



The treatment of structural and physiological botany is 

 unusually full and has special reference to the most recent 

 botanical knowledge. 



The flora includes seven hundred species, and is the only 

 recent, short, and thoroughly simple and intelligible flora 

 of the central and northeastern states. The descriptions 

 are written in the very simplest language consistent with 

 scientific accuracy.
