According to this decision the above-named publications 

 are offered at the following prices : — 



" The Commercial Forest Trees of Massachusetts. How 

 you may know them. A Pocket Manual," for five cents a 

 copy at this office, or by mail for two cents extra. 



" The Study of Trees in Our Primary Schools," for 

 twelve cents, or by mail eight cents extra. 



In case a large number is wanted, as for schools, etc., they 

 can be forwarded by express. 



These publications are neatly gotten up, and as they are 

 in great demand (the first edition of 5,000 having been 

 exhausted in ten days), charging for them at cost is the only 

 feasible method of dissemination. 



Acknowledgments. 



Dr. Clarence Moores Weed, of the Lowell State ISTormal 

 School, was selected to prepare this pamphlet. Owing to 

 Professor Weed's knowledge and interest in public school 

 work, he requires no introduction to Massachusetts teachers. 

 In fact, the syllabus and suggestions herein given have passed 

 the experimental stage, and have been successfully taught 

 as outlined. 



The illustrations are from prints and drawings by pupils 

 in the Lowell ISTormal School and its training schools.
