Academies had rendered, by stimulating local efforts and presenting a strong motive for increasing these facilities for education. Although the limit of allowance had been reduced from $250 to $150, the applications were largely in excess of the means provided, having during the previous year reached the sum of $4,013.98. It was recommended that the appropriation be increased from the $3,000 to $5,000 or $6,000.

In accordance with this request the Legislature in 1884, after granting the customary allowance of $3,000, from the Literature Fund, in the annual act for the support of government, made a further grant of $3,000 from the revenues of the United States Deposit Fund in the Supply Bill, to meet deficiencies, and provide for the institutions that had applied but not received.

A donation by will, for the purchase of apparatus, was declared (February 25, 1853) a conformity to the law, the same as a donation from a living person.

More liberal provision having been made for the purpose of aiding in the purchase of books and apparatus by Academies, it was thought proper to revive the former and somewhat intricate rules for distribution, since the regulations for giving preferences had become unnecessary. A new series of ordinances was adopted July 9, 1881.

Under these, the rights of Academies and of Academic Departments admitted by the Regents were regarded as equal, and as before, an equal amount was required to be raised by the Trustees or Boards of Education, and actually paid to their treasurers for this object. These values must be in money, and not in form of books or apparatus. The standard required for admission since July, 1882, must be maintained, viz.; $500 worth of Library and $500 for apparatus; but in Academies received before that time these values might be $150 for each.

No institution could receive two years in succession, nor more than $150, in a year. A smaller amount might be assigned if the applications exceeded the appropriation. The time for applying is to close with the calendar year, and apportionment is made upon the amount asked for at that time. The trustees must state beforehand what books and apparatus they propose to purchase, or may if they prefer, send a list. Musical instruments, chemicals or laboratory articles of a perishable nature may not be included.

A detailed statement must be made in the next annual reports, of the articles purchased, with prices, and until it appears that all of

the moneys raised and received have been expended for these objects, no further applications will be received. In case the whole suin appropriated is not granted, applications received after December 31, will be considered, but not otherwise.

Amount received from the Regents and the total amount re

ceived and raised for Books and Apparatus under the act of 1834.

Of the above sums evidences were produced showing expenditures for the objects specified, excepting in certain years, and in small amounts, the whole being $1,419.45. The details of this deficiency are slow in the Academic Report of 1883, p. 269.

Statement of Moneys apportioned to Academies by the Regents

for the purchase of Books and Apparatus — an equal amount being in all cises raised by Academies by contribution from sources other than their corporate property, and expended for the same objects.
