I am about to issue the first number of a series of papers enti- 

 Contributions from the Herbarium of Franklin 

 & Marshall College. No. 1 will contain an account of my 

 w ork in southern Texas during the past year, of which sample pages 

 are enclosed. Eleven new species are described, ten of them illus- 

 trated by full page plates. There wiJl be at least 75 pages, in addi- 

 tion to the plates and index. The price is $1.00, postpaid. It will 

 be most convenient if all who can readily do so, will send a dollar 

 bill instead of a money order. 



Other numbers will be issued as material accumulates, and the 

 price will be as low as possible. It is intended to accompany new 

 species with drawings. 



No 2 will contain a preliminary revision of the genus Kuhnistera, 

 with one plare, and local notes. 



Those who desire the complete series, should make a statement 

 to that effect, so that their names may be put upon the subscription 

 list.
