THE YOUNG SCIENTIST. 
Exchanges. 
Yearly subscribers to the Young Scientist have the 
privilege of inserting three exchanges (or one exchange 
three times) during the year. Tliis privilege is strictly 
confined to exchanges ; haying and selling must be car- 
ried on in the advertising columns, where the charge is 
30 cents per line. Each exchange is limited to thirty 
words, making about four lines, and in order to receive 
attention must be written on a slip of paper by itself. 
We file all letters received and have no time for copy- 
ing out exchanges and queries. 
As we desire to make the journal of the utmost value 
to aM and not merely to serve the interests of individu- 
als, we shall strictly adhere to these rules, which are 
certainly liberal, giving as they do advertising to the 
value of $3.60 free to each subscriber.
