NOTE. 



It is earnestly hoped that every Physician who receives this paper, 

 either through the Ohio Medical and Surgical Journal, or by means 

 of an Extra, -will consider himself specially invited to furnish to my ad- 

 dress, at Lancaster, Ohio, new facts or suggestions with regard: 1st. 

 To the properties of old, or well known articles of the Materia Medica. 



2d. Articles, hitherto unknown, or little used ; of practical utility in 

 the Materia Medica. And 



3d. Any thing new with regard to the Medical Botany of Ohio. 



In compiling a report on Materia Medica and Medical Botany, to be 

 presented to the Ohio State Medical Society, which meets the first 

 week of June, 1850, it will be necessary for me to have my materials 

 by the 1st of April. 



It shall be considered a sacred and inviolable duty, to give due credit 

 to every individual who furnishes me with information deemed neces- 

 sary to the Report. 



Respectfully, 



JOHN M. BIGELOW, M. D. 



Lancaster, Ohio, Oct. 20, 1849.
