it would need 50 or 60 subscribers at that rate. or a 
correspondingly larger number at a lower price, to 
enable the Society to meet the considerable expense 
ie reprinting. The work might be done piecemeal, 
ne or more volumes at a time, so that payments could 
be distributed over a more or less long period. Or, 
the cost could be reduced—perhaps cut in half—by 
reprinting only the scientific matter with the original 
paging indicated. 
Now, we wonder how many, members or not, indi- 
viduals or institutions, want such a reprint? Will those 
who do notify the editors and state the limit to which 
they are willing to go in the matter of price and what 
form of reprint they would prefer? The more sub- 
seribers, the less the cost to each.
