AMBROSIA, L. 
A. artemisisefolia, L. Ragweed. 
A common weed in waste places. Many people suppose its 
pollen an effective cause of hay fever, and find relief on the 
Island owing to the supposed absence of this plant. This 
relief however, it seems, must be attributed to some other 
cause, as the plant in question grows everywhere, — even on 
the Cranberry Isles, — in more or less abundance, and is spread¬ 
ing with the increasing settlement of the Island. 
RUDBECKIA, L. Cone Elower 
)j A 
i^-^l hirta, L. Yellow Daisy. Black-eyed Susan. 
naturalized in grass fields from the West. Very common 
about Sornesville and Bar Harbor, and more or less abundant 
all over the Island. A fastigiate form, Seal Harbor (Kedfield).
