Vermont BoranicaL CLUB, Summer Mererina.— The annual 
joint summer meeting of the Vermont Botanical and Bird Clubs will 
_ be held on Thursday and Friday, July 25 and 26, at Franklin, Vermont, 
in the Northwest corner of the State. The shores of a large pond, 
and the flora of three cedars bogs unknown in great measure to the 
botanists of the state, form the greatest attractions. It has been 
felt that the Botanical Club should explore some of the more unknown 
parts of the State before the publication of the revised Flora of Ver- 
mont. After the meeting there will be opportunity for any who 
wish, to join in a trip to Lake Memphramagog at Newport, and the 
wild lands about Island Pond in the Northeast part of the State. 
Persons interested in this meeting should communicate with one 
of the members of the joint Committee.
