This State has been more fortunate than many in having at its 

 State Agricultural College a succession of botanists, who have 

 been able to see that the vegetation of the earth is not ex- 

 clusively made up of seed-producing plants. The study of the 

 lower plants was commenced by Professor Bessey and his students, 

 and has been continued by his successors, Professors Halsted and

 published considerably on the Myxomycetes and Agaricales, and 

 other collections have been made by J. C. Arthur and A. S. Hitch- 

 cock. One of the most enthusiastic collectors is E. W. Holway, of 

 Decorah, whose private collection and library are very exten-
