LdNICERA HISPIDULA Dougl. 

 LONICERA 8UBSPICATA Hook & Am. 

 The "moronel" of the Mexicans is used

 healing of sores.

 GALIUM APARINE Linn. 



Galium Aparine L. — "Cleavers are re- 

 garded as a most valuable cooling 

 diuretic, useful in most diseases of the 

 urinary organs" (Gunn). "Considered 

 as a sovereign remedy in kidney dis- 

 eases" (Mrs. Bingham). A cold infus- 

 ion is used, as heat destroys its medi- 

 cinal virtues. Goose grass, as this 

 plant is sometimes called, is abundant 

 in Southern and Baja California — in 

 fact throughout the west, but our plant 

 differs from the eastern and European 

 form.

 SOLIDAGO CALIFORNICA Nutt. 

 Golden Rod, or "Oroja de Leabre" of

 juries of man or beast, the most stub- 

 born of sores being said to quickly heal 

 under its influence.

Probably this is the species commonly 

 known as Mock willow, is held in some 

 repute for the healing of sores. Fluchea 

 boreal is Gray, also known by the same 

 popular name, perhaps shares in the 

 same virtues and is, I believe, the plant 

 known to the Mexicans as "water- 

 motor" — credited with medicinal vir- 

 tues without number!
