The first, “ Ex- port Tiade Suggestions” (Miscellaneous Series 35, Foreign and Domestic Com- merce Bureau), contains trade-building rules which can be followed with profit in expanding foreign trade of the United States, and also contains some criticisms of methods now in vogue. Price, 15 cents. The other is entitled “ Central America as an Export Field ” (Special Agents Series 113, Foreign and Domestic Commerce Bureau), by Garrard Harris. Here the author describes opportunities that exist in opening up and developing markets for special kinds of American goods in Republics to the south of us, including Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. This monograph supplies specific information, in a con- cise form, which will be found valuable to those studying existing trade conditions in this particular territory. Price, 30 cents. The continued large demand for “ Medico-Military Aspects of the European War ” has necessitated a reprint of this valuable report. Surgeon Fauntle- roy s description of what he saw, as a special representative of the United States Government behind the lines of the allies in France, is of like interest to layman and practitioner. The descriptive text and illustrations of wounds received by combatants emphasizes the truth of General Sherman’s charac- terization of war. The humane side is seen in the tender care and treatment which is given the soldier in field and hospital by those who have consecrated themselves to the care of the sick and wounded. Price, 60 cents. The various branches of the Government Departments have contributed their usual quota of interesting publications, each along its accustomed line of research.

A wholesale rate has been established for topographic and geologic folios (either Library or Field editions), so that a discount of 40 per cent, from the retail price is now allowed on all orders the net cost of which amounts to $3.00 or more. This rate applies on an order of either maps or folios alone or for maps and folios together, but does not apply to the folios sold at 5c. each on account of damage by fire.
