viii MAINE AGRICUIvTURAIv EXPERIMENT STATION. I909, 



Publications. 



The Station is organized so that the work of investigation is 

 distinct from the work of inspection. The results of investi- 

 gation are pubHshed in the bulletins of the Station. These 

 make up the annual report for the year. The results of the 

 work of inspection are printed in publications known as Official. 

 Inspections. These are paged independently of the bulletins 

 and are bound in with the annual report as an appendix thereto'. 

 Miscellaneous publications consisting of newspaper notices of 

 bulletins, newspaper bulletins and circulars which are not paged 

 consecutively and are not included in the annual report are 

 issued during each year. 



All of the bulletins issued by the Station are sent to the names 

 upon the official mailing list prepared by the Office of Experi- 

 ment Stations, to all newspa]3ers in Maine and to libraries and 

 to agricultural exchanges. Bulletins which have to do with 

 general agriculture and the Official Inspections which bear upon 

 the feeding stuffs, fertilizer and seed inspections are sent to a 

 general mailing list composed chiefly of farmers within the 

 State. The publications having to do' with the food and drug 

 inspection are sent to a special list including all dealers in Maine 

 and other citizens who request them. The annual report is sent 

 to directors of experiment stations and to libraries. Copies of 

 all publications are sent to the newspajDers within the State and 

 to the press on the exchange list outside of the State.
