Round Pond, Maine, 
July 5, 1913. 
Dear Oollins: 
Thank you very much for letter. I will send for 
the Bulletin 207, Me. Ag. Exp. Sta. at onoe. 
Oan you give me any idea about the tiiae you are 
likly to show up here? I'd like to know as much in advance as 
possible on account of planning some other things, visits, &c. 
As I shall meet you in Portland, probably, I expect to get there 
a day or two early and do a little visiting on my own hook. 
Thank you for forwarding that very important-looking missive 
from Newark. It is one of those cases where an old man 
thinks that he has the right to put everyone to expense to 
gratify his hobby, and does not even enclose a stamp for reply. 
Naturally, he gets none. 
Hot as the hinges of hell, here, and not a drop of rain. 
Dust a foot deep and garden sass is suffering. 
Have just bought the goegraphic distribution of the Pines, 
that you showed me in Providence, and am hoping that there may be 
some other things along soon. 
All well, and hoping you're the same. 
Ghamberlain
