It is with great pleasure that we learn of a valuable addition to the buildings of the University. In the spring, ground will be broken for another section of the museum of Comparative Zoology. The new section will be a continuation of the present west wing and will be used to accommodate the growing needs of the botanical department. It will contain laboratories for the study of both cryptogamic and phaenogamic botany. There will also be rooms for the exhibition of the economic and systematic collections already accumulated, and for which there is at present no adequate accommodation.
The funds for building have already been raised through the exertions of Prof. Goodale. A collection of superb glass models, representing the principal species of flowering plants is now being made in Germany especially for this exhibit. When this addition is completed and the collections arranged it will be surpassed by few in the world.
