Hr. Bllsworth Hi Hip, 
Division of Plants, 
U. 3. national Museum, 
Washington, D.C. 
Dear Mr. Killip: 
I have indeed received Dr. Blake's letter 
and the new arrangement is quite satisfactory to me. 
Dr. Blake has not done any work on our plants for a 
very long time and has not even been able to name the 
Compositae. 
Ho. 7032, is determined as lantana trifo -

March 11, 1917. It was described as a low undershrub 
with lilac flowers. 
lio. 12541 is Coronopus didymu s. I do not 
understand hew you can have a Cassia under that number. 
12548 is Cassia (Adipera) indecora ; 12641 is a Cassia 
Udipera)! and also 12561, Cassia (Chamaecrista) sp. 
i'here is evidently a misreading somewhere. 
Do. 517 Jahn, is Ver onica humifusa, collected 
by Jahn, and we have no Manettia under that number. 11c. 
518 Jahn, is Taraxacum; there are too many Orchids to 
verity at this time whether we have any under the same 
number. By the way, we have quite a number of unnamed 
Orchids; would it not be possible to have them named by 
Dr. Ames or do you think it is better to send them to 
Zranzlin? 
In a few days or maybe with this same mail, 
I may be able to send you a list of the numbers up to 
8629. 
I am sorry Delostoma is proving- to be such 
a heavy proposition. Under the circumstances, the
