PHARMACAL PLANTS AND THEIR CULTURE.

fornia soon merges into that of the neighboring states and territories, 
Mexico, Australia, Japan, and other countries. 
Those desiring further limited information on the morphology, chem- 
istry, physiological action, uses, etc., of many of the plants mentioned, 
are advised to obtain a copy of some Dispensatory (National or King’s) 
or some standard text-book on pharmacognosy, always specifying the 
latest edition. The National Dispensatory is allopathic while King’s 
Dispensatory is eclectic. Of the text-books on pharmacognosy, Cul- 
breth’s and Sayre’s are perhaps the most complete in many ways, and 
the former is quite up to date on nomenclature. 
The subject index to the literature will make it possible to collect 
quickly a nucleus to the literature on the history, range and distribution, 
chemistry, properties, cultivation, etc., of the plants mentioned. Two 
almost indispensable publications treating of medicinal plants are The 
Proceedings op the American Ppiarmaceutical Association and the 
American Journal op Pharmacy. Most of the references are made to 
these publications. There are complete sets in the library of the Califor- 
nia College of Pharmacy, San Francisco, and in other college of phar- 
macy libraries.
