 able number of each i)ublication to meet subsequent demands, 

 but the demand has grown so rapidly that the supply of most, 

 as will be noted from the above list of available publications, has 

 been exhausted. The meteorological bulletins are sent only to 

 agricultural college and experiment station libraries, presidents 

 and directors, to the Department of Agriculture and Office of 

 PLxpcriment Stations, to newspapers and to libraries and indi- 

 viduals who have especially requested them. 



Our circulars are printed for use in connection with the cor- 

 respondence of the station. It is only by the use of such cir- 

 culars that we are able to give information and advice on the 

 many problems on which we are consulted. These circulars are 

 sent only as above stated or on request. An abstract of all im- 

 |'<ii'taiit ])ublications is furnished to the press, and requests for 

 any issued will be met as long as the supply permits.
