24 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 
Bingham and Park City, Utah; between January 5 and February 
5, 1914, at Globe and Miami, Arizona. His personal researches 
were devoted to the microscopic character of ores, the secondary 
enrichment of sulphide ores, and the copper deposits of Shasta 
county, California. Professor Graton reports that no direct gifts 
to the section of mining geology have been made during the year, 
but notes certain advantages enjoyed at no expense to the Uni- 
versity. Nearly half of the charge for labor connected with the 
great task of labeling and arranging the collections of the section 
was borne by Mr. Sayles, in exchange for numerous specimens 
transferred to the Museum. From the Secondary Enrichment 
Investigation fund the sum of $17,750 was expended during the 
year, in addition to $6,300 expended last year. This very extensive 
Harvard research places to the credit of this Department an enter- 
prise of greater scope than anything of similar nature previously 
undertaken in this country, outside of government auspices. 
Professor Graton specially feels the need of a department library. 
Professor Raymond gave Palaeontology 1 (8 students), Palaeon- 
tology 2 (4 students), and Palaeontology 20 (8 students). In 
the research course Mr. Winthrop P. Haynes wrote his thesis, 
accepted in June for the Doctor’s degree, and Mr. Richard M. 
Field did certain work on the photography of fossils by the use 
of the Roentgen rays, the results of which are being prepared for 
publication. 
Through a grant from the income of the Shaler Memorial fund, 
Professor Raymond, accompanied by Associate Professor W. H. 
Twenhofel of the University of Kansas, was able to study the 
stratigraphy of the Cambrian, Ordovician, and Silurian formations 
of the Governments of St. Petersburg and Esthonia in Russia, 
and in the southern parts of Sweden and Norway. About four 
months were spent on this expedition, during which a great deal 
was learned about the relations of the various strata in the regions 
studied, and the correlation of those strata with the Ordovician 
and Silurian rocks of America. A report on the results of the trip 
is now in preparation. 
The student palaeontological collection has received the follow- 
ing accessions; — a specimen of silicified wood and invertebrate 
fossils from France and Germany, from Dr. Donald C. Barton; 
a fossil fish and silicified wood from Italy through Professor 
Palache; a series of fossils and shells from the Holden collection 
through Professor Wolff, and a set of brachiopods from the Car- 
boniferous of Ireland by purchase.
