THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF 
THE BRITISH ISLES. 
REPORT OF THE DISTRIBUTOR FOR igoi. 
The number of plants sent in is much smaller than last year, 
mainly owing to a welcome diminution in Rubus and Hieracium. 
Mr. Rogers has named all the brambles, and Mr. Ley (whose parcel 
is, as usual, the piece de resistance) most of the hawkweeds. Many 
members send first-class specimens; but a few still contribute material 
only fit for the fire. A closer attention to the rules is desirable; these, 
however, might well be somewhat amended. The practice of affixing 
plants to the papers by strips of gummed paper makes them awkward 
to handle, and is very injurious to delicate specimens. 
Owing to some delay in receiving critical opinions I have not been 
able to write the report very early.
