Excerpt from Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science, Vol. 19 The State Printing Board has recently honored a requisition for 500 volumes of binding, an order equal to our requisitions for the past six years, and this order will enable us to clear up our mass of loose pamphlets, which are difficult to care for. Two hundred and fifty of these volumes are now at the state bindery, and others will be sent near the end of the year. An effort is being made to eu large our library and make it more complete, and the secretary recommends that the Academy set aside a fund of 8100 for new books. Photographs - The secretary has secured fifty photographs of Academy members. These have been secured through repeated letters, sent in some cases three or four times. We have photographs of nearly half the members now and we are going after the other half; so be prepared for another set of letters on this subject.
