ANNOUNCEMENTS. 9 



All work proper to the Experiment Station and of public 

 benefit will be done without charge. Work for the private use 

 of individuals is charged for at the actual cost to the Station. 

 The Station offers to do this work only as a matter of accom- 

 modation. Under no condition will the Station undertake 

 analyses, the results of which cannot be published if they prove 

 of general interest. 



STATION PUBLICATIONS. 



The Station publishes annually a report covering in detail 

 its expenses, operations, investigations and results, and bul- 

 letins giving popular accounts of the results of Station work 

 which relate directly to farm practice. The bulletins are mailed 

 free to all citizens who request them. The annual report is 

 bound with that of the Board of Agriculture and distributed by 

 the Secretary of the Board. This combined report can be ob- 

 tained by addressing the Secretary of Agriculture, State House, 

 Augusta, Maine. It is usually ready for distribution in August 

 of each year.

As far as practicable, letters are answered the day they are 

 received. Letters sent to individual officers are liable to remain 

 unanswered, in case the officer addressed is absent. All com- 

 munications should, therefore, be addressed to the

The post office, railroad station, freight, express and telegraph 

 address is Orono, Maine. Visitors to the Station can take the
