THE  WATSON 
Botanical  Exchange  Club. 
REPORT  FOR  1906—7. 
A  larger  number  of  specimens  have  been  contributed 
this  season  than  for  many  years  past  and  most  of  them 
were  well  prepared.  May  I  remind  collectors  of  Rubi 
that  in  addition  to  very  carefully  selected  panicles,  two 
or  three  stem-pieces  should  be  sent  with  each  sheet  and 
that  they  should  be  taken  from  near  the  middle  of  the 
stem.  In  several  cases,  at  Mr.  Moyle  Rogers’  suggestion, 
I  have  had  to  combine  two  sheets  in  order  to  make  one 
representative  example. 
A  few  members  still  forget  that  except  as  a  new  v.c. 
record,  for  naming,  or  for  some  special  reason,  which 
ought  to  be  stated,  two  or  three  specimens  only  of  a 
plant  are  valueless  to  a  Club — I  have  not  recorded  such 
contributions. 
The  following  is  the  list  of  contributors  : —
