On of the first of the flowers found was 
the Philadelphia fleabane, with materia medica 
connections. It is one of the yellow flowers that 
attracts attention. The plant is ha.ry. The scent 
is strong and disagreeable to fleas. Blanchan 
states that when the fleabane is dried, reduced 
to powder and sprinkled in kennels, that even 
the dogs are driven away. Doubtless in such 
cases the fleas go also. White, red, yellow, sweet 
and hop clovers were found in quick succession. 
Another nearby flower was the daisy or Mar¬ 
guerite that grew in bunches that invited picking. 
It was receiving day for the figwort family 
and the mulleins, and toadflaxes were on the re¬ 
ception committee. With them was mad-dog 
skullcap of the mint family. Three members of 
the mustard family were likewise on the receiv¬ 
ing line. 
Jack-in-the-pulpits next interested us. There 
is a wide divergence in this plant. According to 
the books some of the Indian turnips have 
flowers that are “staminate”; others, on distinct 
plants, are ‘‘pistillate’’ and still others have both 
male and female florets seated on the same club. 
The true flowers are within the so-called spathes 
near the base of the smooth, glossy columns that 
characterize them. These flowers are exceed¬ 
ingly minute. 
One of the rare beech ferns was found by 
Miss Brainard. Its downy light green and tri¬ 
angular frond is daintily pretty. Some of the 
rushes were next encountered. Many of these 
small plants have formidable latin names that 
are awe-inspiring, but the plants are interesting 
in spite of that handicap. The leaves and stems 
are woven into matting and chair bottoms, and 
the pith of some species is used for the wicks 
of candles (rush-lights). Blind hand craftsmen 
use these plants in some of their wonderful work. 
The specimens found had curious hairy growths 
upon them that looked like spider webs. 
The lemon-scented horse balm, otherwise 
lemon balm, stone-root and rich-weed, to whose 
ingenious scheme of insect fertilization W. 
Hamilton Gibson was the first to direct atten¬ 
tion, was one of the finds. 
In a little group of ferns growing in a kind 
of colony were the New York ferns that are 
readily distinguishable from their tapering at 
both ends, the ever graceful maiden hair fern 
and the lace fern. 
Some spikenard, useful in medical botany from 
its aromatic and stimulant.properties, was here 
gathered into the vasculums. Skirting a pond, 
sassafras leaves were f \icked and eaten as a 
relish. In the pond were some Rixia (algae) that 
comes into the making of a balanced aquarium; 
also some golden clubs of the arum family. One 
botanist found a ripe wild strawberry. 
Young grapes were observed in miniature 
now, but full of future promise for the autumn. 
The partridge berry found had a twin flower. 
The shin leaf was next found. It was so-called 
from its early use as a shin plaster when in the 
alphabetic development of first aid to the injured 
it was thus utilized. 
Perhaps the most interesting find was one 
of the orchids which was not identified in the 
field, but was borne home for identification. 
Even the most expert botanist cannot know just 
what flower is found in every instance in the field. 
A large tway-blade was another odd speci¬ 
men. It was named in allusion to the plant’s 
shining leaves.
