arts, household arts, and other sciences. The lists include all the articles needed for the problems outlined in this manual. For convenience in ordering supplies the articles are arranged alphabetically, and are numbered serially so that the teacher may, if desired, remove these sheets from the manual and send them to supply houses for estimates. The number in parentheses following the name of an article indicates the problem in which it is first used, thus referring the reader to the kind of use proposed for it. The approximate quantities needed are given, but teachers will often wish to change these quantities. Not all the articles listed are absolutely essential, but all will be found useful. The cost of the apparatus listed can be reduced about one third by omission of field glasses, compound microscope, small telescope, and incubator. When funds are limited, it is recommended that part of the apparatus be purchased each year until the equipment is adequate. At the most, the cost is but a few hundred dollars. Since prices fluctuate widely, however, they have not been included in this list, but may be secured from supply houses at the time when purchases are to be made.
