ONE of the notable text-books on our list is "Foundations 

 of Botany " by Mr. Bergen, whose " Elements of Botany " 

 has come to be the most widely used recent text-book on 

 the subject in the higher schools and academies of the country. 



The " Foundations of Botany " is sufficient to prepare for 

 any college or university which accepts botany as an entrance 

 requirement. It offers an extended and comprehensive course 

 for schools that wish to devote an entire year to the subject, 

 and provides the teacher who has only a minimum amount of 

 time with the distinct advantage of a considerable option as 

 regards the kind and amount of work which he shall present 

 to his classes. It represents the simplest and most practical 

 methods of botany teaching, combining a standard text liberally 

 illustrated with a complete course in laboratory work and a key 

 for the study of . systematic botany. 



The treatment of structural and physiological botany is 

 unusually full and yet has special reference to the necessary 

 limitations of work in secondary schools. 



The flora includes seven hundred species, and is the only 

 recent short and thoroughly usable and intelligible flora of the 

 central and northeastern states. The descriptions are written in 

 the very simplest language consistent with scientific accuracy.
