 HON. TBEASUBEB'S STATEMENT. 



In the following pages the Balance Sheet and list of 

 subscriptions and donations are shown. Year by year the 

 expenses at Port Erin increase owing to the greater number 

 of students that work at the Biological Station, and also to 

 the increased amount of work that is done there. There 

 is, therefore, a greater necessity for increased support, either 

 by annual subscriptions or by special donations in order to 

 enable the Committee to open up further fields of useful 

 work and research. 



There is a useful library at the Port Erin Biological 

 Station for use of students and other workers, and any 

 donations, either of books or money, will be most appreciated. 



We have again this year received a Grant from the 

 Board of Agriculture for research work, some of which has 

 been spent in Lobster Bearing. Full particulars of this are 

 given in the report.
