In this issue the "Kalendarium" and "Dictio- 
narium," each with special title-page, have pre¬ 
cisely the seime paging as in the preceding, and 
while there has been no minute comparison of the 
two, this issue appears to differ from the other 
only in a completely reworded title-page. It is 
impossible to judge from anything in the Dept. 
Agr. copy, which of the two has priority. (MFW)
