Australian Crotalaria (No. 41571), which Mr. James Pink, 
who sends it in, predicts will be highly successful 
in borders in dry situations. 
The Pondoland cocos (Jubaeopsis eaffra, No. 41484) 
will have a botanical interest to all palm lovers as 
the only member of the tribe to which the coconut be- 
longs, which occurs in Africa,- all the others being 
inhabitants of the Western Hemisphere.

OBITUARY. 
Stephen Conrad Stuntz. 
It is with the deepest regret that we announce 
the death from pneumonia, on the third of February, 
1918, of Mr. Stephen Conrad Stuntz, who has had charge 
of all the publications of this office for the last 
eight years. Mr. Stuntz devoted much time and energy 
to the building up of Plant Immigrants and its or- 
iginality and many of its characteristics will remain 
as a concrete evidence of his Industry, Intelligence, 
and botanical ability. 
Remember that a fifty dollar Liberty Bond will supply a bandage 
long enough to go from the Capitol to the White House and 
back again (nearly two miles) or it will bandage 555 hands.
