LAST YEAR'S
U.S. MUSHROOM CROP HIT $1 BILLlON:
It is official from the USDA: The 2010/2011
USA Mushroom Cash Crop was $1 Billion!!! This was with 282 reported GROWERS! USDA Report 2010-2011 USA Mushroom Cash Crop. France's national income is helped so much by truffle sales, it is called their 13th month. With weapons sales, perfumes, fashions, and other exotic exports, this is saying a lot.
China has taken over the world market with Agaricus bisporus (the commercial "Button" mushroom). Japan has been the world's leader in Shiitake cultivation, but because of increasing demand in this country, many Shiitake farms are now springing up here in
America. Take for instance the "
Three
River Farms" mushroom company. The following was taken from #15 "TMC" July 95: "The mushroom company started just 3 years ago. It was started in a lumber yard "gone bad" due to slack of housing construction. They called me saying they were about to lose everything, and could they grow any mushrooms. To me, they were sitting on a gold mine with all that wood they could not sell. The company grows Shiitake on wood. They expect of make $2.5 million in 1995. They use 8 tons of sawdust every 3 weeks. With the help of 22 employees, they produce 3,500 Ibs. of Shiitake every week. They expect to produce 10,000 Ibs. a week by 1996."
MEDICAL AND RESEARCH COMPOUNDS : This huge new market is not even part of the $1 Billion quoted earlier. Their worth is staggering. Phalloidin for instance is now going for about $100 per mg. Keep in mind that there are 1,000 mgs. in ONE gram! That's $100,000 a gram! Look it up in any chemical supply catalog, like SIGMA. If you, or your company's area of business or research is in this field, you may qualify to enter this new and very profitable unique market. New AIDS research with Maitake mushrooms have caused this mushroom to bring as much as $300 a pound, a few years ago. You will have little or no competition in this market.
These compounds include antibiotics, antitumor agents, antiviral agents, and even anticancer agents. One of the anticancer agents, Lentinan, showed 80% remission factor in Sarcoma and other related cancers, with just a 10 day treatment. If Lentinan was applied before cancer implant, it was 100% effective. Panaeolus subbalteatus, a psilocybin producing mushroom, has shown to be effective against polio virus in mice. Other psilocybin producing mushrooms are now believed to have powers of improving hearing, eyesight, circulation, and activating the body's immune system. Enoke Mushrooms show Cancer remission (#77 TMC January 2008). There have been stories reported that certain people who live down in some of the valleys in
Mexico, live to be 130 to 140 years old. There is evidence now being gathered which points to Mexican mushroom cults as the source for these stories. We at FMRC do not think eating any mushroom is going to make you live to 130. However, if certain mushrooms do enhance the immune system, you would not die as easily from colds, flu, or other ailments which strike old people down so many times. The late Dr. Pollock believed that the mushroom Psilocybe tampanensis held great potential for psychotherapy and treatment of asthma patients. Mushroom RNA has shown to be effective against influenza. Interferon stimulating properties are even now being found.
We are now building up a client list in need of these compounds. The true fact is, the medical people who want these mushrooms for extraction purposes, do not know how to identify them, much less, grow them in their labs. This is where you can play a very important role. If you have been able to cultivate mushrooms, you have a very special talent. If you are of this caliber, you know it is a special talent. Growing a mushroom is not growing a tomato plant. If you wish to do your own extractions, no complicated lab equipment or knowledge is needed. These extractions are done very easily. FMRC makes available reference texts giving all the simple directions you will need. Having the organic material (the Mushrooms) from which to do the extractions is the problem. If you can cultivate the mushroom from which you wish to do the extractions, you have solved the problem. If you know where to collect these mushrooms from the wild, you have solved the problem. This is why these extractions are worth so much. The people who want these mushrooms and their extractions pay good prices. Besides, the cost is tax deductible as an expense to them. We are looking for people with this kind of insight. We wish to have independent growers from which we can purchase needed mushrooms, or refer other clients to them. We do not wish to have any kind of exclusive agreement. This allows you to do business with any firm you want. You sell your product to anyone you want to.

COLLEGE OF
BASIDIOMYCETES
The Study of Gilled Mushrooms
FMRC was the first to introduce home correspondence courses to study mushrooms. Certificate of Completion, from Associate to Doctor's are offered. Don't be fooled by "come lately" courses that others have now started. If you want to learn about mushrooms in the privacy of your home, and do so at your own pace, sign up with the only one that has more than 30 years of experience. No one else but FMRC can give you the real training you desire to have. Courses start as low as $100.00. Financing is available and pre-approved!
Enrollment Application on back of this Catalog.
Tuition Schedule:
Doctor......................$500.00
Master.......................260.00
Bachelor...................180.00
Associate.................100.00
Persons who pay full tuition up front, may deduct 10%. Persons who wish to make tuition payments by the lesson can pay 20% down and then make remaining payments as lessons are successfully completed. Lessons are completed at your convenience. They are sent by mail, graded, and returned with the next lesson. Upon completion of all lessons, and receipt of full payment, the degree is awarded. Text books are not furnished. "The Audubon Society Field Guide To North American Mushrooms, by Gary H. Lincoff is the preferred textbook for all these courses. This book can be ordered through most book stores. Other mushroom books may be helpful when completing "Extra Credit" portions on tests.
Additional materials needed to complete Doctor or Master degrees of Completion are all furnished. These may include specimens, spores, cultures, reagents, and other reading materials like "The Mushroom Researcher ($50.00 value, and "Growing Mushrooms Without Contaminations" (a $25.00 value). Students living outside the
US must add an additional $40.00 to cover "Out Of Country" Airmail and Handling.
All of the following Lessons must be completed for Doctor's level. Lesser degrees require fewer courses to be completed.
1.....Plant Structure
2.....Basic Mycological Terminology
3.....Microscopy (Student must have access to microscope)
4.....Advanced Mycological Terminology
5.....Identifying Mushrooms
6.....Identifying Mushrooms With Chemical Reagents
7.....The Mushroom's Spore
8.....Mushroom Toxins
9.....Psychoactive Mushrooms
10...Cultivation Of Mushrooms ("GROWING MUSHROOMS WITHOUT CONTAMINATION" is provided for this course, a $25.00 value).
11...Maintaining And Preserving Live Mushroom Cultures
12...Deadly Mushrooms, 13...Choice Edible Mushrooms, 14...The Amanita, 15...Lepiota, 16...Hygrophorus, 17...Russula, 18...Lentinus, 19...Pleurotus, 20...Armillaria, 21...Clitocybe, 22...Coprinus, 23...Panaeolus, 24...Psilocybe, 25...Agaricus
Although our "Certificate of Completion" degrees are nonacademic and cannot be used for credit on academic courses, knowledge obtained through these courses can be transferred to academic credits by taking CLEP tests offered by most major Universities and Colleges. Certificates offered may not be acceptable when obtaining positions where an academic degree is required. This is the reason why tuition may sound to be on the "cheap" side. If degrees were accredited through a College or University, this would cause an increase by thousands of dollars in tuition fees. Back years ago I was told by the
University of
NorthWest Florida, "To accredit FMRC's Doctor's Degree would cost over $26,000.00." And my cut is not even in that figure. Because many of the subjects discussed are not offered by most academic institutions, I decided to make them available. I many times talk to medical doctors from Poison Control Centers, working on identifying mushrooms involved in mushroom poisonings. They find themselves learning a lot from me about identifying mushrooms, especially from spore microscopy and taking mushroom spore prints on paper to see their color. They openly relay to me how Mushroom ID "Challenged" they really are. When I tell them about these very same courses and how they can take them at their own pace and time, they even sign up! These degrees actually show higher specific learning accomplishments than what most Universities and Colleges offer. Persons holding academic degrees can present our "Certificate of Completion" as supplemental credentials, and proof of further learning into the specific area of Basidiomycetes.
Transcripts of student's "Records of Achievements" and all Test Scores are made available through FMRC for a $20.00 fee. They are only available to the students who take courses, or to those who have documented request letters signed by the said student authorizing the release of said transcripts. The only other thing you will need to purchase is the text book used for the courses, "THE AUDUBON SOCIETY FIELD GUIDE TO NORTH AMERICAN MUSHROOMS," By Gary H. Lincoff. All other materials needed are provided.

Mushroom Stamps
From Countries all over the World
I have collected stamps since I was a young boy. Every stamp I ever saw that had a mushroom on it, I had to have it. So, my collection of Mushroom Stamps is pretty good. Many are great actual photographs, others are exact replica water colors by great artists. Just so happens, just about every mushroom a mushroom person would have interest in, is here in this Collection. I was even able to find and purchase the famous Gold Foil Mushroom Stamps from The
Congo. These are also pictured here in this great collection of Postage Stamps from all over the world.......that picture Mushrooms. Over 200 of the best stamps were selected for this CD-ROM. This turns out to be a great tool in helping you see just what a particular mushroom may look like. Just looking over all the stamps and their pictures of different mushrooms, is really enjoyable. What's more though, they actually give you a good "Photographic Collection" of mushrooms that you can use and work with right on your computer! Here are just a few you will have excellent reference on, Amanita muscaria, Psilocybe cubensis and P. mexicana, Oysters, Boletes, and many more. Just slip it into your computer and you are off. This CD works in computers. Most CD type players for your TV will not play it. It is a CD-ROM Data Disk for computers.

Underground Bases
Feb. 11, 2008...........James Casbolt is a former MI6 agent who worked in 'Black ops' drug trafficking operations in
London between 1995 and 1999. He comes from a line of intelligence people. His grandfather was naval intelligence, his father was MI6 who was also involved in 'Black ops' and his uncle was an MI5 officer in Logistics. From
Cornwall
England, James wishes to make amends for his part in these operations and blow the whistle on the crimes against Humanity that the intelligence agencies are involved in. MI6 and the CIA have cornered the global drugs trade (which is worth at least £500 billion a year, this is more than the global oil trade) and are now bringing the majority of illegal street drugs into
America and
Britain.
They are using this drug money to fund projects classified 'Above top secret' which include the building and maintaining of deep underground military bases (DUMBS). There are now over 4000 of these bases worldwide and the average depth of these bases is four and a quarter miles. Some are shallower and some are deeper. The bases are on average the size of a medium sized city and yes, he says there are aliens in them.
James is connected to ex intelligence people who have worked in these underground bases and on other ET related projects. There are vast numbers of children and adults disappearing around the world and ending up in these underground bases. As a former MI6 Agent that has seen aliens first hand and has inside information that will shock even the most disbelieving person. Every person alive on the planet today needs to be aware of this information for their futures.
