Removed from ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, FOR THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1932. In plastic report covers. VG. From the article: "Directly or indirectly our most important interests depend on the solar radiation. The sun rays keep the earth warm enough to sustain life. Variations of their intensity associated with summer and winter, and with light and day, produce climates. Slight variations of the original output of rays from the sun itself seem to be highly influential in altering the weather. All growth in plants depends upon the application of solar energy. Our atmosphere is the source of carbon, which is a principal plant constituent. The trifling percentage of carbonic acid gas contained in air is the essential food of plants, but it can not nourish them without the help of radiation. The health of animals, including man, requires radiation. The prevention of rickets…

In plastic report covers. From the article: "As creatures of habit, the attitude of mind with which we approach a scientific problem has much influence upon what we see in it or get from it. Although the essence of life is activity - the response of the changing organism to its changing environment - yet this dynamic conception of animal relations, and all that it implies, has not become as prevalent a mental habit among biologists as one might expect. While some naturalists view the animal from a more or less dynamic standpoint, they do not include a similar conception of the relation of an animal to its environment. Still others view the environment more or less dynamically but do not extend this conception to the animal, and thus both of these conceptions lack completeness and are not thoroughgoing and…
