124 MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN BULLETIN 
NOTES 
Two little blue herons were seen at the lake in the North 
American tract on August 8. These somewhat rare visitors 
are native of Florida and doubtless were on their way home 
from northern breeding grounds. Another important bird 
visitor was the black-and-white warbler which was seen at the 
Garden on September 11th. While he is a common bird dur- 
ing the second migration, he is seldom seen here on his return 
trip in the fall. 
Visitors to the Garden during the summer months include 
Professor A. L. Herrera, director of the Biological Station 
of Mexico; Professor A. C. Burrill, professor of entomology 
and plant pathology, University of Missouri; Professor H. 
M. Fitzpatrick, professor of plant pathology, Cornell Uni- 
versity; Miss E. H. Smith, of the department of plant 
pathology, University of California; Mr. John C. Dunegan, 
plant pathologist, U. S. Department of Agriculture; Dr. G. 
R. Hill, director of the School of Agriculture and professor 
of botany, Utah Agricultural College; Mr. Gerardo Offimaria 
Ocfemia, of the department of plant pathology, University 
of the Philippines, Los Banos.
