SCIENCE 



[N. S. Vol. XXVI. No. 676 



application should be sent to the assistant 

 director (Frank R. Lillie, University of Chi- 

 cago) before May 1. 



Subscribing institutions for the year 1907 

 were as follows: 



Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia. 



Bryn Mawr College. 



Mount Holyoke College. 



Rochester University. 



Smith College. 



Syracuse University. 



University of Chicago. 



Columbia University. 



University of Pennsylvania. 



University of Cincinnati. 



Vassar College. 



Wellesley College. 



Woman's College of Baltimore. 



Kansas University Woman's Table supported 

 by Mrs. Robinson. 



Vassar Brothers' Institute. 



University of Michigan, Bryant Walker Schol- 

 arship. 



United States Department of Agriculture. 



It is hoped that this list may be increased. 

 The laboratory carries out work of interest 

 and importance to all biological departments, 

 and provides facilities for marine work that 

 would cost such departments acting independ- 

 ently many times the rental of a room at the 

 Marine Biological Laboratory. Institutions 

 that favor this cooperative plan are requested 

 to aid by subscribing for rooms, prices for 

 which are $100 per season. The subscription 

 carries with it the right of nomination of the 

 occupant of the room, who receives services 

 and supplies as stated above. 



An important addition to the list of coop- 

 erating institutions for 1908 is the Wistar 

 Institute of Anatomy and Biology, which sub- 

 scribes for five rooms. Four of these are 

 available for qualified investigators in anat- 

 omy and zoology. Applications may be sent 

 directly to the Wistar Institute of Anatomy 

 and Biology, Philadelphia, Pa., or to the as- 

 sistant director of the Marine Biological 

 Laboratory. 



The staffs of the various departments con- 

 stitute a permanent nucleus of investigators 

 and center of interest for research in all de- 

 partments. It is expected that the research 



staffs in zoology and physiology will be sub- 

 stantially the same as in 1907, viz.: 



ZOOLOGT 



E. G. Conklin, professor of zoology, University 

 of Pennsylvania. 



C. W. Hargitt, professor of zoology, Syracuse 

 University.

 omy, Johns Hopkins University. 



Frank R. Lillie, professor of embryology, Uni- 

 versity of Chicago.

 ogy, Columbia University.

 of Chicago.

 versity of Michigan. 



BOTANY 



The research staff in botany for 1908 will 

 include the following: 



John M. Coulter, professor of botany, University 

 of Chicago. 



B. M. Duggar, professor of plant physiology, 

 Cornell University. 



Henry Kraemer, professor of botany, Philadel- 

 phia College of Pharmacy.
