Where possible, it would be still better to send specimens of the 
plants; in some cases it will be necessary to have specimens, in or¬ 
der to accurately determine the species, for the reason that there is 
some confusion in local names. The same plant is frequently 
known by different names in different sections. 
Small plants should be sent entire, roots and all ; they should 
show blossoms, and, if possible, fruit also. Large plants may be 
sent in part—a portion of the stem showing leaves, flowers, and 
fruit. Plants may be dried under pressure, between sheets of 
blotting-paper, or newspaper; when sent dry, they should be pro¬ 
tected from injury in the mails by pieces of heavy paste-board. If 
sent fresh, they should be slightly moistened, and wrapped in heavy 
paper. 
Always write the name of the sender on the outside of the 
package. Address,
