THE  WATSON 
Botanical  Exchange  Club. 
REPORT  FOR  1909—10. 
The  plants  sent  to  the  Club  this  year  are  in  many 
instances  of  great  interest  and  value.  It  would  be  in¬ 
vidious  to  select  special  contributions  for  particular 
commendation,  but  the  Rev.  A.  Ley’s  set  of  Elms  calls  for 
mention. 
The  Referees  and  other  experts  have  readily  lent 
their  aid,  and  the  Club  is  deeply  indebted  to  these 
gentlemen. 
The  Distributor’s  work  has  been  rendered  an  easy 
and  pleasant  one  by  the  continuous  assistance  of  the 
Secretary,  to  whom  the  very  real  gratitude  of  the  Club  is 
due. 
It  would  render  the  work  of  distribution  lighter  if  the 
contributors  would  attend  carefully  to  the  few  and  simple 
rules  of  the  Club.  One  member  transgressed  no  less  than 
five  rules  !  It  would  also  be  a  considerable  help  if  one 
extra  label  were  sent  with  each  species  for  use  in 
arranging  the  notes  to  be  sent  to  the  Secretary  for  the 
Report. 
The  contributors  are  as  follows  :
