THE 1919 SUMMER MEETING 



Nellie F. Flynn 



The field meeting of 1919 was held at North Hero, August 4-6, 

 headquarters being at Irving House, North Hero. There was a good 

 attendance, 30 persons being present, some all of the three days. The 

 first day's explorations were conducted about "The Carry" at North 

 Hero where the Island contracts to the width of the road and at Pelot's 

 Bay. There was only one boat available at each place and no oars for 

 one so the collection of water plants was not what it might have been. 

 The pondweeds, Potamogeton perfoliatus, P. zosterifolius, P. Richard- 

 soni, P. heterophyllus, the water milfoils, MyriopTiyllum spicatum and 

 M. alternifolium, the arrow head, Sagittaria graminea and the stiff 

 water crowfoot, Ranunculus circinatus, were collected with the help 

 of a pole. 



On the shore, among a host of other things, were the sedges, 

 Eleocharis palustris, Scirpus occidentalis, S. pedicellatus, Carex vesi- 

 caria, C. lenticularis and one of the bellflowers. Campanula uliginosa. 



At Pelot's Bay very much the same water weeds were collected 

 and on the rocky shore we found the rare meadow rue, Thalictum con- 

 fine.
