 My deal-" Deane:- 



Your kind letter of July 7th. has been received. 

 I suppose you are now in the country enjoyinr your well earned va- 

 cation. I will soon have out another short paper of which page 

 proof has just been read. 



Have you received a copy of the year book of the Department of 

 ACTiculture for 1895? It is just out and has considerable botany 

 in it . 



I still have your list of Umbellifer desiderata, but J am 

 sorry to say that very little in your line is corning in. 



Yours very truly,
