Bulletin Sa les.— Notwithstanding* the financial stringency, the receipts 

 from the sale of the Bulletin during the year 1896 exceed those of any 

 former year, amounting to 8695.75. It would seem certain that an av- 

 erage of at least S500 per year can be relied upon from the sale of the 

 Bulletin as available to support the publication. The Secretary suggests 

 the desirability of using available funds upon the Bulletin as the surest 

 way of sustaining its commanding position and of increasing its sales.
