RESEARCH 



sums set out in the Appendix do not (save in the 

 few instances where it is so stated) include any 

 expenditure upon printing the results of scientific 

 investigations, whether by committees or by indi- 

 viduals, which occupy so large a proportion of the 

 annual reports issued by the Association. 



The totals of the grants assigned in the Appendix 

 to the various sections work out as follows : 



Section. s. d. 



A. (Mathematics and Physics) ... 34,97718 7 



B. (Chemistry) 4,178 17 8 



C. (Geology) 6,956 3 11 



D. (Zoology), and K. (Botany), jointly 1,579 1 10 



D. (Zoology) 12,093 15 5 



E. (Geography) 3,69513 4 



F. (Economics) 1,322 4 3 



G. (Engineering) 4,164 7 6 



H. (Anthropology) 7,226 16 11 



I. (Physiology) 3,115 13 7 



K. (Botany) 1,952 15 1 



L. (Education) 538 18 6 



M. (Agriculture) 500 1 



In addition to the above, some few grants have 

 been made which are incapable of classification under 

 the headings of sections, and are scarcely, indeed, to 

 be regarded as applied (at least directly) to research. 

 These are the grants, amounting to 174 2s. , which 

 were made toward the translation of foreign scientific 

 memoirs, physical and biological, in 1840-41 ; the 

 grants toward the publication of ' Science Abstracts/ 



1 It may be observed that the single subject and small sum classi- 

 fiable under the heading of Agriculture are to be at least partly 

 accounted for by the fact that agriculture was not made the subject 

 of a separate Section until 1912, by which time research in agriculture 

 was provided for from other sources.
