 I'holiotas with suspicion. Macllvainc remarks, however, as follows: "Stevenson notis 

 in his description of the Kenus: 'None are to be commended as edible.' My invcsti^'a- 

 tion show:^ that there are several delicious species, notably 1'. S(|uarrosa and suh-

 taken occurred in a woods near Columbus, first brounlit in by II. il. ^■ork, in June.
