Excerpt from A Text-Book of Mycology and Plant Pathology
The following pages represent in a much extended form the lectures and laboratory exercises given by the author before his botanic classes at the University of Pennsylvania, and before public audiences else where, especially, Farmers' Institutes with which he has had three ye'ars' experience as a lecturer in Pennsylvania. The arrangement of the text has been suggested by the needs of the classroom and from an acquaintance with similar work in other colleges and universities in America. It is hoped that the book and the suggestions, as to teaching which it contains, will appeal to those responsible for similar courses. The keys are given with the anticipation that they will prove useful to the student and teacher who desire exercises in the classification of the fungi: The illustrations have been chosen with care, and credit is given in all cases for those borrowed from other books and monographs.
