2 – 3. Compounds. – A large number of compounds is now on exhibition, particularly belonging to the inorganic series.The ordinary preparations are easily obtained as required, but a feature of this exhibit will be products of special research, donated or deposited by investigators in chemistry.Several such compounds are already available for display, and it is hoped that chemists will regard this collection as the best repository and exhibition of the results of their investigations.

C. Manufactures. – This division is a natural offshoot of all the others and naturally is, to some extent, included in them. It is intended to embrace only the greater manufacturing industries which, by reason of the special arrangement and space required by each, would break into the regular series of elements and compounds.

In every case where an exhibit is made in this division it is intended to represent the processes of manufacture as fully as possible, by showing raw materials intermediate and by-products, and the principal grades of finished articles, with illustrative drawings or photographs when they can be obtained. Each article or series of articles will have its proper descriptive label
