He buys the easy way Today, he finds the tools of research quickly. No more hunting. One look in Analytical Chemistry's annual BUYERS' GUIDE does it. Over 7,000 entries listing more than 600 suppliers within 500 different product headings take this kind of search out of research. The 1963 BUYERS' GUIDE will be issued in mid-April. It will be used by thousands of scientists throughout the world and by the 4,250 purchasing agents who place the orders for research instruments, equipment, chemicals and services. 6
