Freda Detmers. 
The following plants have been added to the State Flora 
since the last report, made in 1903-4. It has been customary to 
report only those of which there are specimens in the State Her¬ 
barium, however, this list contains exceptions to this rule. Two 
plants are included which are not in the Herbarium of the Uni¬ 
versity ; both are reported on good authority and one is in the 
Herbarium of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station at 
Wooster, also a state herbarium.

tural Experiment Station, Wooster, O. Collected by M. M. 
Murphy, Ripley, O., June 1899. It was reported by Mr. A. D.

the specimens had become well established and that he had 
observed the plant for several years.”

AN INTERESTING BOULDER OF CUYAHOGA COUNTY. 
Edo Claassen. 
Among the many boulders of Northern Ohio, which repre¬ 
sent granite, amphibolite, gneiss and other rocks, one occasion¬ 
ally finds a specimen more interesting than usual. It is such a 
piece of rock that is lying partly imbedded in the ground on 
Superior Avenue, west of Forest Hill Park, in East Cleveland 
Township near the top of a hill, several hundred feet above Lake 
Erie. The boulder is evidently gneiss and has a nearly flat sur¬
