USNM Curators Annual Reports - Foods and Textiles, 1887 - 1888

What would you do if you were the Director of the United States National Museum and a curator submitted this report on "Preparing Microscopical Mounts of Vegetable Textile Fibers" instead of the customary annual report? Curator R. Hitchcock of the Foods and Textiles sections did just that for the period of 1887 - 1888. Join other volunteers transcribing this brief report accepted as a substitute.
