INDORSEMENTS 



James Winne, Principal High School, Poughkeepsie, N. Y. 



" The plan of the book commends itself to my judgment, and pleases me 

 very much." 



Rev. B. P. Snow, Principal North Yarmouth Academy, Yarmouth, Me. 



"In the materials selected, methods used, in the progressive character 

 of the work, and in its wisely regulated scope, the book pleases me greatly. 

 I shall use it in my classes." 



E. L. Morris, Director of Botany in the Washington High School, Washington, D. C. 

 " Eight months of constant comparison of Setchell's ' Laboratory Practice 

 in Botany ' with all laboratory guides in Botany so far published, convinces 

 me that this little guide is the only one suitable for secondary schools, where 

 the expense of large outfits, the salaries of specially trained teachers, the length 

 of courses suitable for technical work, are impossible. Such conditions are 

 those of by far the majority of the public high schools of this country." 



Charles C. Ramsay, Principal High School, Fall River, Mass. 



" I have examined with pleasure Setchell's ' Laboratory Practice for Begin- 

 ners in Botany,' and it seems to me to be a valuable aid to teachers of botany 

 in secondary schools. Its arrangement is admirably systematic, and its 

 requirements of observation and written record by the pupils are sufficiently 

 exhaustive and scientific for the grade of schools for which the book is 

 designed. It is a good book, and should have a wide sale."
