To Prof. C. E. Bessey,
Dear Sir,

I am referred to you by Prof. G. F. Atkinson of Cornell University for a popular account of the Corn smut published by yourself in the Bulletin of the Iowa Agr. College issued by the dept. of botany 1884. If the Bulletin is purchasable, I should be glad to pay any reasonable price for it.

Kindly reply and oblige,
Yours truly,
(Miss) F. F. Sheldon.
Instructor in Biol., Rockford Coll.
