Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, 1905, Vol. 48: Quarterly Issue I have taken no notice of the numerous new terms concerning the arrangement of the feathers proposed by Alix (1864, p. Wray (1887, pp. 344 - 345) and others, the older divisions into hand remiges and arm - remiges being quite sufficient for my purpose. It was to be foreseen that the treatment of such brittle and hard material as the horny substance of feathers would present serious technical difficulties. Former investigators have left no record of the way in which their examinations on developed feathers were conducted. It is true that Strong (1902, pp. 148 - 1 51) has described his mode of procedure rather fully, but he speaks merely of the treatment of feather germs. I treated the material to be examined in the following manner: I took one of the three outermost hand - remiges, usually the longest, and one of the arm-remiges of each Species of bird to be examined, and placed a portion of the vane on the Slide mounted in balsam.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, 1910, Vol. 54 Any discussion, or any indication even, of landmarks in the history of botany must needs be preceded by a somewhat careful enquiry into the nature and purposes of the science as such. Where in does botany, as a science, essentially consist? With this question unanswered it were impracticable either to indicate the origin or trace the progress Of it. In the most extended use Of the term, all information about the plant world or any part of it is botany. According to this View, all treatises upon agriculture, horticulture, floriculture, forestry, and pharmacy, in so far as they deal with plants and their products, are botanical.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, 1883, Vol. 27 The purpose of this paper is distinctly not critical, and the remarks I have added to, or inserted in, the digest are simply explanatory. I have, however, frequently mentioned criticisms which have appeared in literature when they seemed pertinent. As for the accuracy with which the digests have been made, I may state that the preponderating importance of this point has been constantly before my mind. In the effort to crowd the maximum amount of information into the fewest words, I have had occasion to refer to most of the papers digested a number of times, and at long inter vals. I have always taken advantage of such occasions, as well as those on which I have met with a reprint, transla tion or abstract Of a determination, to verify the rough draughts of my digests. Only in a couple of instances have I thus discovered a triﬂing error. On the other hand, I have been able to detect and point out numerous misprints and miscalculations in the original sources. While, there fore, I cannot hope entirely to have escaped error in the thousands of values I have copied, and the almost 'equal number of calculations I have made, I have strong hopes that the accuracy of this digest will be found at least on a par with that Of the original papers.

With the purpose of giving a clew to whatever may have been published respecting each species, all the accessible works touching upon the systematic botany of this country, since the adoption of the Linnean system of nomen clature, have been consulted, including those in the library of the Cambridge Herbarium and the general library of Harvard Univer sity, the Public Library of Boston, the library of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, and others of less importance, and to some extent also the Congressional Library at Washington.
