  A 
  new 
  series 
  of 
  publications 
  has 
  lately 
  been 
  inaugurated 
  under 
  the 
  

   title 
  "Economic 
  circulars/' 
  wath 
  independent 
  serial 
  numbers. 
  These 
  

   circulars 
  are 
  the 
  medium 
  for 
  brief 
  advance 
  reports 
  upon 
  investigations, 
  

   to 
  be 
  more 
  fully 
  treated 
  in 
  subsequent 
  papers, 
  and 
  also 
  for 
  timely 
  

   information 
  not 
  requiring 
  more 
  lengthy 
  treatment. 
  Often 
  the 
  sub- 
  

   ject 
  matter 
  will 
  be 
  of 
  interest 
  to 
  certain 
  industries 
  or 
  locaUties 
  only, 
  

   and 
  for 
  this 
  reason 
  the 
  economic 
  circulars 
  will 
  not 
  be 
  distributed 
  to 
  

   addresses 
  upon 
  the 
  regular 
  and 
  permanent 
  mailing 
  hsts 
  but 
  to 
  special 
  

   lists 
  or 
  upon 
  individual 
  request.
