The erection of a laboratory at Boston, Massachu-setts, especially designed for this purpose, was authorized in December1906, and early in 1907 Professor Benedict was appointed construction of the laboratory was begun in July 1907 and com-pleted in February 1908. The equipment consists of a variety of apparatus for observationson metabolism and related investigations. It includes four respira-tion calorimeters, one of which is especially designed for studying
