for tlie Hualvsih is lo be sent on, ti-ausportatiou [)i'epaid ; the results 

 will be returned without charge for the work carried out. Applica- 

 tions for analyses of substances sent on by private parties will receive 

 careful consideration whenever the results promise to be of a more 

 general interest, and as far as the existing special resources admit. 

 The limited Hnaucial means of the Station necessitate, however, in 

 the latter case a moderate charge for the services rendered, to cover 

 expenses. For obvious reasons no work can be carried on at the 

 Station of which the results are not at its disposal for publication if 

 deemed advisable in the interest of the citizens of the state. By 

 consent of the secretary of the State Board of Agriculture the anal- 

 yses of commercial fertilizers collected by the state inspector will be 

 published hereafter in the bulletins in advance of the annual report. 

 All parcels and communications sent to the Experiment Station 

 must have express and postal charges prepaid to receive attention.
