Androscoggin, the lower Merrimac, and well inland along the Con- 
necticut. Notable also, though not abundant, was Scirpus Smithit 
Gray. In a previous visit, at the northwest corner of Lake Ossipee. 
I had found Myriophyllum tenellum also. 
Province Lake in Wakefield proved, at least on its sandy southern 
side, where I was able to examine it, of less interest, though Solidago 
tenuifolia was present there, as I fancy it is at many of the ponds of 
the region (I have found it at Lovewell Pond and at Silver Lake in 
Madison). More interesting to me, however, and more common 
than at the other ponds I visited was Scirpus Smithii, and not far 
from it, abundant but not at all conspicuous, was Subularia aquatica 
L., a representative of a northern aquatic flora appearing a little out 
of place among its coastal plain neighbors. 
A few moments of collecting on the west shore of Mirror Lake in 
Tuftonborough yielded Subularia and Myriophyllum tenellum 
again, and a single plant of Scirpus Smithii was the first thing to 
greet me on the sandy north end of Lake Wentworth in Wolfe- 
borough, where approaching dusk cut short my collecting just when 
it began to promise well. 
These interesting features of a hasty sampling, during parts of two 
days, of very restricted portions of a few of the many ponds in the 
east central region of New Hampshire suggest that more prolonged 
and careful investigation might furnish valuable and perhaps sur- 
prising results for our knowledge of the distribution of coastal plain 
extensions in a district comparatively neglected by botanical col- 
lectors. Specimens of the plants mentioned in this article have been 
deposited in the herbarium of the New England Botanical Club, and 
for assistance in the determination and verification of several of them 
I am greatly indebted to Professor Fernald.

Two more Woor-wasrE PLANTS FROM WESTFORD, Mass.—In 
going over the herbarium of the late Emily F. Fletcher, two wool- 
waste plants have been detected which it may be worth while to 
record by way of completing the list of her “finds” published by her-
