COMPOSITAE 



75. Vernonia noveboracensis L. — Devil's-bit, Charleston, W. Va. 



(Barton). 



76. Eupatorium coelestinuni L. — Wooly-head, Columbia, Pa. 



(Barton). 



77. Baccharis spp. — Cotton-bush, sea-island myrtle, Georgia, 



South Carolina; there is an excusable tendency to con- 

 fuse Baccharis and Iva in the application of local names 

 and the terms, marsh elder and hightide bush, according 

 to Clarence Cottam, are so confused on the New York 

 coast, and the appellation kink-bush similarly misused 

 near Ocean City, Md. 



78. Xanthium spp. — Herbe a coquin, Louisiana (Dorrance). 



79. Cotula coronopifolia L. — Brassbuttons, Long Point Id., 



Calif. 



80. Tiissilago farfara L. — The name pooke for "Colts-foote" 



(William Wood, New Englands Prospect, 1634 (1898 re- 

 print), p. 107) appears to be the forerunner of poke, now 

 applied most commonly, perhaps, to Phytolacca decandra. 



81. Hypochaeris radicata L. — Yellow weed, Nehalem, Ore. 



(Gene Simpson).
