Dear Sir: 



Please accept my thanks for your publication entitled, 

 "Flora oi' Willoughby, Vermont." I am always glad to get hold of 

 these different Floras. 



Should you have any more copies to spare, I would like very 

 much to have you present one to our library, and you could send it to 



HI n - 



Pres. H. H. Goodeil. I recently suggested 't^SPr^ Goodall that he 

 get all these Floras and he has endeavored to do so. 



Yours truly, 



DIRECTIONS FOR SENDING MATERIAL FOR EXAMINATION. 



In sending specimens of diseased plants or species for determination, it is essential to send sufficient quantities for a thorough examination, in selecting 

 diseased specimens of plants to be sent, care should be taken to choose as far as possible such as show different stages of the disease including all of the affected 

 parts. These should be carefully wrapped in moist paper or sphagnum moss and packed in a tight box. A full description of the trouble and conditions per. 

 taining to them should also be given. 



In sending plants for determination it is desirable not only to have the blossoms or fruit, but as much as possible of the whole plant. Specimens of trees 

 should include at least a small branch with several leaves. 



Postage on specimens of plants is at present one cent for each ounce or fraction thereof.
