A Dictionary of Botanical Terms #266623

I desire here to express my gratitude to various botanical friends for their contributions to this work, particularly to Dr. W. J. Beal, of the Michigan Agricultural College, who has revised the entire manuscript and improved many of the definitions; to Professor V. M. Spalding, of the Uni versity of Michigan, who has revised and corrected the terms relating to fungi; to Mr. F. C. Newcombe for aid upon the terms applied in karyokinesis; and to Professor L. H. Bailey, of Cornell University, for advance proof-sheets of his glossary of horticultural terms. The marking of the pronunciation was begun by Mr. B. Pickman Mann, of Washington, D. C., and completed by Mr. F. P. Jordan, of the University of Michigan. In their work Webster's dictionary was mainly followed as authority.
