TORREYA 



Torreya was established in 1901 as a monthly publication of the Torrey Botanical Club 

 for shorter papers and interesting notes on the local flora range of the Club. It also 

 contains the proceedings of the Club, reports of field trips, and some book reviews and 

 news notes. The Council of the Torrey Botanical Club has decided to devote volume 43 

 of Torreya, 1943, to the publication of the papers presented in June 1942 at the 7Sth Anni- 

 versary Celebration of the Club, and to the Proceedings of the Club. This volume will 

 be published in two numbers. 



Torreya is furnished to subscribers in the United States and Canada for one dollar 

 per year (January-December) : single copies thirty cents. To subscribers elsewhere, 

 twenty-five cents extra, or the equivalent thereof. Postal or express money orders, drafts, 

 and personal checks are accepted in payment. Subscriptions are received only for full 

 volumes. 



Claims for missing numbers should be made within sixty days following their date 

 of mailing. Missing numbers will be supplied free only when they have been lost in the 

 mails. All subscriptions and requests for back numbers should be addressed to the treasurer, 

 Dr. W. Gordon Whaley, Barnard College, Columbia University, New York, N. Y. 



Of the annual membership dues of the Torrey Botanical Club, $.50 is for a year's 

 subscription to Torreya.
