The First and Third Readers were adopt
ed by a unanimous vote.
II was ordered that the books adopted
shall 90 into uniform use in the public
schools of the State within one year from
date.
For the current school year, the follow
ing prices were fixed for the books of the
State series now ready for use the prices
covering all expenses delivered to the
depot in Sacramento: Speller, 20 cents ;
First Reader, Is cents; Third Resder, 40
cents. The above prices are at Sacramento.
twas decided that prices could not at pres
ent be fixed for the various county seats,
still the Board is able TO say, from data at
hand that the freight to the various county
seats will add only few cents to each vol
ume-provided the books are sent in pack
ages Of not less than 100 pounds.
The State Printer was requested to re
port to the Board at the next meeting, an
estimate of the cost of plates for geogra-
ply in two parts.
The following resolutions were adopted :
Rescued, That we invite proposals for the
preparation Of History of the United States for
Chapters-one on the period of the Confedera-
tiOn, following the Revolutionary War, and one
on the History of California. An index of CON
tents and the probable number of pages should
be sent.
Res0Ired, That the Secretary be instructed to
order from the State Printer twenty-five copies
each of the textbooks prepared by the Board,
for the use of the Board, the same to be paid for
out of the compilation fund.
Resolred, That the share OF the cost of the
printing plant chargeable to the manufacture
of the State series of textbooks, aSfTepOrted by
the State Printer to the Board be added to the
cost of books, by distributing it over the esti-
mated supply for twelve years, and that one
third be added for the first four years
b Rescued, That the cost of compilation and il
lustration of the several books of the State Sc,
ries of text books be added to the cost of said
books, by distributing it over the estimated sup
ply of the same for eight years ana that three
tifths Of such cost be added for the first four
years.
[The last two resolutions were observed
and followed in fixing the price of the
speler and readers, as above.l
The Board adjourned to the call of the
Secretary.
