EXTRACTS FROM THE WISCONSIN STATUTES. 
STATUTES OF 1898. 
TRANSACTIONS OP THE ACADEMY. 
Section 341. There shall be printed by the state printer biennially 
in pamphlet form two thousand copies of the transactions of the Wis¬ 
consin Academy of Sciences, Arts, and Letters, uniform in style with 
the volumes heretofore printed for said society. 
Note.—Under a ruling of the printing commissioners of the state of Wiscon¬ 
sin, made in response to a presentation by a committee of the Academy ap¬ 
pointed December 29, 1897, each volume of the Transactions may be issued in 
two consecutive parts; so that a publication may thus be issued each year cov¬ 
ering the papers accepted after the previous annual meeting. The Academy 
allows each author one hundred separate reprints of his paper from the Trans¬ 
actions without expense, except a small charge for printed covers when desired. 
Additional copies are charged for at the actual cost of printing and binding. 
OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF PUBLIC DOCUMENTS. 
Section 365. The transactions of the Wisconsin Academy of Sci¬ 
ences, Arts, and Letters shall be distributed as follows: One copy to

hundred copies to the State Historical Society; one hundred copies to 
the State University, and the remainder to said Academy. 
Section 366. In the distribution of books or other packages, if such 
packages are too large or would cost too much to be sent by mail, 
they shall be sent by express or freight, and the accounts for such
