IOWA ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. 
Our exchange list has been extended by the addition of the “Northern 
Indiana Historical Society.” of South Bend, Indiana; ‘‘Ohio State Archaeo- 
logical and Historical Society,” of Columbus, Ohio; and “Wyoming Histor- 
ical and Geological Society,” of Wilkesbarre, Penn. The exchanges of the 
academy are now being cared for satisfactorily by the state librarian. 
A number of inquiries have been received from members and fellows 
involving a knowledge of our constitution and by-laws, especially those 
sections which have been recently amended. I would recommend that a 
committee be appointed or elected to codify and prepare for printing the 
constitution and by-laws of the Academy and that the same be printed in 
the next volume of the proceedings. Respectfully submitted.
