  the 
  first-named 
  £ 
  

  

  m 
  

  

  species 
  to 
  the 
  open 
  pine 
  forests, 
  where 
  they 
  are 
  subject 
  to 
  periodical 
  

   fires, 
  as 
  in 
  all 
  other 
  forests 
  of 
  long-leaf 
  pine 
  that 
  I 
  have 
  seen. 
  

   The 
  scarcity 
  of 
  woody 
  vines 
  here, 
  as 
  in 
  the 
  eastern 
  pine-barrens, 
  

   is 
  probably 
  correlated 
  with 
  fire. 
  The 
  first 
  herb 
  listed 
  is 
  probably 
  

  

  comb 
  

  

  bloom 
  at 
  the 
  time, 
  I 
  could 
  not 
  be 
  sure 
  of 
  the 
  species. 
  

  

  A 
  peculiar 
  feature 
  of 
  the 
  shrubby 
  and 
  herbaceous 
  vegetation. 
  

   of 
  the 
  open 
  pine 
  forests 
  is 
  that 
  some 
  species 
  which 
  in 
  Georgia 
  and 
  

  

  are 
  usually 
  regarded 
  as 
  pronounced 
  "xerophytes" 
  here 
  associate 
  

   together 
  either 
  in 
  hollows 
  or 
  on 
  the 
  highest 
  spots; 
  possibly 
  because 
  

  

  dry 
  

  

  The 
  

  

  only 
  Sarracenia 
  known 
  in 
  Texas, 
  S. 
  Sledgei, 
  has 
  been 
  reported 
  from 
  

  

  Macfarlanet

  , 
  but 
  I 
  did 
  not 
  come 
  

  

  for 
  it.

  one 
  finds 
  no 
  statement

  that 
  effect 
  in 
  any

  h7n^;;;;;rs 
  . 
  the 
  favorite 
  

   hab.tat 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  |eems 
  to 
  be 
  railroad 
  tracks. 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  it 
  in 
  such 
  situations 
  in 
  

   places 
  as 
  far 
  apart 
  as 
  Massachusetts, 
  Michigan, 
  Florida 
  and 
  Texas
