INDEX 



This index aims to include all names of trees — both technical and 

 common names — names of persons, geographical names, and all other 

 topics not sufficiently indicated by the table of contents, which an 

 interested reader would be likely to look for. (The illustrations 

 are indexed too, having been put on numbered pages for that 

 purpose, instead of on plates as is often done.) 



Botanical names are printed in italics. For the benefit of persons 

 who may know some of the trees better by different technical names 

 which were current a generation ago, a few synonyms, not men- 

 tioned in the preceding pages, are included in the index, with cross- 

 references. Figures in parentheses indicate pages where the topic 

 referred to is mentioned indirectly or under a different name.
