inlet occurs tlie green dragon (Arisa^nia Dracoiitiiinn in considerable 

 abundance. 



In the following list. I have followed so far as possible, the nomen- 

 clature of Wheeler and Smith's well-known catalogue of the plants of 

 Michigan published in ISSl (addenda in 1S9S). I have adopted this plan 

 simply for convenience: 

 Panicum dandestinum. Found in June along the railway. 

 Ghjcaria pallida. Occurs in the lake region. 



Carer stramhica alata. Was found once near the inlet of the pond. 

 TVollfia cohinibiana. Occurs abundantly on the mill pond. 

 Sisyrhichiiim gramhioides. Occurs abundantly in great tufts, 4 or 5 



inches in diameter and over a foot high, 

 on a hillside south of Kenyon Lake. The 

 flowers were very pale blue and several of 

 the tufts were pure white. 

 Sisi/rinchium anfiiistifoHitm. Occurs sparingly in the lake region. 

 Salir tristis. Beside a road in the lake region. 

 SteUaria crassifolia. Rather common in the west swamp. 

 Sisi/mirium altissinuon. Not common, but occurs along the railway. 

 Ticia sativa angusfifoUa. Ticia cracca. Both these occur along the 



railway. 

 Epilohiiim moJle. Found in September in the west swamp. 

 Pyrola rotundifolia incaniafa. Common in a small patch of tamarack 



south of Kenyon Lake. 

 Frascra caroUnensis. Bather common in several places, especially on 



an oak ridge west of the west swamp. 

 Lonicera oblong i folia. In a dense bit of tamarack near Kenyon Lake.

SOMETHING CONCERXIXG THE FORESTS OF XORTHERX 



MICHIGAN. 



W. J. BEAL, Ph. D. 



Dr. Beal showed a series of lantern views of Michigan forests, and 

 made appropriate comments upon them as they were shown. Among 

 the views were some of a virgin forest, methods of cutting and remov- 

 ing logs, and the sawmill.
