The arithmetic doesn't work out right for the third house of the
Pennsylvania grower on page 17 of part 2. Perhaps it produced 28,000
pounds rather than 2,800. However, I left it as it was.
Removed duplicate word "the" on page 20 of part 2: "add to the manure."
Changed "surfare" to "surface" on page 20 of part 2: "surface be too
dry."
Changed "POLYPOROUS" to "POLYPORUS" on page 24 of part 2.
Changed "deletereous" to "deleterious" on page 3 of part 3: "classed as
deleterious."
Changed "yellew" to "yellow" on page 4 of part 3: "never yellow."
Changed "flexuous" to "flexuose" on page 4 of part 3: "thin, flexuose."
The Analytic Table starting on Page 6 of part 3 was changed to use
numeric codes to identify the branches in the tree rather than the special
characters, for clarity and elimination of non-Latin-1 characters.
Changed "Psilosybe" to "Psilocybe" in the table on page 7 of part 3.
Changed "fibres" to "fibers" on page 8 of part 3: "with minute fibers."
Changed "Rhodosporhii" to "Rhodosporii" on page 9 of part 3: "section
Rhodosporii."
"Pleurotos" appeared on pages 9 and 16 of part 3 and page 3 of part 5;
they were all changed to "Pleurotus" for consistency.
Changed "epyphytal" to "epiphytal" on page 13 of part 3: "epiphytal,
often stemless."
Changed "Mushroooms" to "Mushrooms" on page 14 of part 3: "Mushrooms
with Bacon."
Changed "importatnt" to "important" on page 15 of part 3: "an important
part."
Changed "Hymenomycetefs" to "Hymenomycetes" on page 16 of part 3: "the
genera of Hymenomycetes."
Both "Gloeoporus" and "Gloeporus" appear. I left both spellings,
since I couldn't determine the author's intention.
Changed "Basidyomycetes" to "Basidiomycetes" on page 18 of part 3:
"Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes."
Changed "myceluim" to "mycelium" on page 18 of part 3: "directly on the
mycelium."
Changed "Dacyromycetes" to "Dacryomycetes" on page 19 of part 3: "(1)
Dacryomycetes."
Some text was dropped on page 19 of part 3. I inserted an ellipsis as a
place-holder: "without asci, ... sporules or stylospores."
Moved semi-colon inside quote three times on page 20 of part 3, for
grammatical consistency: 'or "rotting moulds;" the Cystopi, or "white
rusts;" the Saprolegniaceae, or "fish moulds;".'
Changed "Entomothoraceae" to "Entomophthoraceae" on page 20 of part 3.
Changed "Uutersuch." to "Untersuch." on page 21 of part 3: "Bot.
Untersuch."
Changed "Mongraphie" to "Monographie" on page 21 of part 3: "Monographie
des Saprolegniees."
Changed "spois" to "spores" on page 23 of part 3, in the entry for
tetraspore.
Changed "perethecia" to "perithecia" twice on page 23 of part 3:
"enclosed in perithecia" and "fungi without perithecia."
Changed "Hyphomecetea" to "Hyphomyceteae" on page 23 of part 3: "such as
the Hyphomyceteae."
Changed "rotton" to "rotten" on page 4 of part 4: "rotten wood or
sticks."
Changed "Puff Ball" to "Puff-Ball" in caption to Plate G.
