t on a sheet of glass, belowwhich, at some distance, is the background. This methodnecessitates a stand made for the purpose, but it may be quitea simple piece of apparatus, and is quite worth the trouble. In conclusion, I may offer my apology to the reader forwhat appears to me to be a lack of practical information.Many pages of this Annual might be filled with devices usedfor one purpose and another, which would each need illus-trations to make them readily .comprehensible, and even thenthey might not apply to the exact want of the inquirer. Eachworker has to find for himself the methods that are mostuseful to the particular work in hand. The methods and appa-ratus that would do admirably for, say, a series of photographsof carices would be almost useless for one of mosses. So Iwould ask the reader to take these hints for what they areworth, and if by chance they inspire anyone to attempt theabsorbing pastime of plant photography I am amply repaidfor the trouble of penning them. ii6
