MUSHROOMS, EDIBLE AND OTHERWISE 



found in pine regions, but I have found it frequently in the woods near Bowling 

 Green, Sidney, and Chillicothe. Many authors give this plant a bad reputation, 

 yet I have eaten it often and when it is well prepared it is good. I should advise 

 caution in its use. It is found in damp sandy woods during May and June. The 

 plant in Figure 418 was found near Chillicothe.
