There is one part of the work of this section that has not received any attention as yet, but which can doubtless be begun early in the year, - as soon as the material now being worked up in the food collection is out of the way. This is the arranging of series illustrative of the processes of nutrition, showing the relative value of foods, drinks, etc.; and various other illustrative collections which have already been mentioned in a previous communication. 
It is also desirable that specimens showing the process of spinning and weaving should be obtained for the textiles division, and these can doubtless be readily obtained by a personal visit to the mills.
