The first item does not
provide for the expense of
any explorations by the
curator away from home

The expense incurred in
collecting will necessarily be
so mixed with that of taking
care of the museum that
the two cannot well be
estimated in seperate items

In the estimate of the
cost of securing donations
and exchanges next winter
is included the expense of
obtaining the insects now
belonging to the university
in the hands of De Saussure
and Dr Clemans, and the
board of the curator for
1 1/2 months in Washintgon.
