Supply of Specimens for Science and Art Department, &C.
A supply of plants for the Art Schools and for the examinations in botany (about 16,000 specimens) of the Science and Art Department have been regularly furnished. A large number of specimens of flowering plants as well as other botanical materials have been supplied for the various examinations of the University of London.

To comply with this request would necessitate growing large quantities of a number of plants suitable for the purpose, and the matter has been referred to the Board, by whom it is still under consideration.
