Excerpt from Plants of Rocky Mountain National Park The wild flowers of Rocky Mountain National Park are one of its main attractions. They paint its fields, meadows, hillsides, and rocky gorges in all the colors of the rainbow. There has been a con stant demand for an illustrated guide to these flowers, and this publica tion has been prepared in response to that demand. It is the result of several years' study of the plants of the region. Emphasis has been put on the outstanding field characters of the plants described and on their habitats. Keys for identification and an illustrated glossary are included. The chapter on Mountain Plants at Home deals with the relations between the plants and their severe mountain environ ment and their adaptations to that environment. The keys have been made as practical and simple as possible. They have been previously published, tested, and revised, and the writer feels that they will be useful to all persons who are seriously interested in the identification of our common wild flowers, whether or not they have had training in botany. In order to keep the keys from being long and unwieldy, some of the inconspicuous plants are not included. However, the names of all seed plants and ferns known to grow in the park are given in the text. Technical terms have been avoided as much as possible, but because it is impossible to differentiate between related plants by using only every-day English, a few technical terms have been employed to assure accuracy. These are adequately explained by drawings and definitions in the glossary. Approximately 700 species are included. Specimens of most of these have been collected by the writer and are in the herbarium of the Rocky Mountain National Park. Most of the collecting has been done on the eastern side of the Continental Divide, and it is probable that some plants not included herein will be found on the western slope. A thorough study of the grass and sedge families has not been attempted, but lists of those species known to occur have been in cluded. The region that has been intensively studied is that of the Rocky Mountain National Park and the territory surrounding Estes Park, but this book will be found useful above feet throughout the mountains of northern Colorado and southern Wyoming.

Excerpt from New Manual of Botany of the Central Rocky Mountains: Vascular Plants IN 1885 the Manual of the Botany of the Rocky Mountain Region was published. It was based upon general explorations of the region concerned, and was confessedly tentative. During the last twenty-four years, general explorations of the vascular flora have merged into more or less intensive studies, and the manual long ago became inadequate. It was the original purpose to revise it as frequently as new material justified, but the author's time and attention became absorbed in other kinds of botanical work, so that no revision has appeared. As the book continued to be in demand, it seemed necessary, in justice to its users, to bring it up to date. This work has been undertaken by Professor Aven Nelson of the University of Wyoming (laramie), whose great familiarity with the flora of the Rocky Mountain region suggested his fitness for the task.

Excerpt from General Information Regarding the Rocky Mountain National Park For many years the Mecca of eastern mountain lovers has been the, Rockies. For many years the name has summed European ideas of American mountain grandeur. Yet it was not until January 26, 1915, that a particular section of the enormous area of magnificent and diversified scenic range thus designated was chosen as representa tive of the noblest qualities of the whole by creating it a national park.

Excerpt from Catalogue of the Flora of Montana and the Yellowstone National Park In the summer of 1895 Mr. C. L. Shear and the author were commissioned field agents by the Division of Agrostology of the United States Department of Agriculture, and about seven weeks were spent within the state of Montana. Collections were made in the vicinity of several stations of the Union Pacific Railroad from Lima to Silver Bow; at Deer Lodge; and at nine stations of the Northern Pacific Railroad from Garrison to Bozeman. The following summer I was again detailed by the Division for work in Montana, and was accompanied by Mr. J. H. Flodman, of Luther Academy, Wahoo, Nebraska, who made a private collection at the same time. Collections were made in the Spanish Basin of the Madison Range; in and around the Bridger, Elk, Little Belt, and Crazy Mountains; and in the Gallatin and Musselshell Valleys. Although my work during these two summers was practically confined to the grasses and other forage plants, I gained a fair knowledge of the general flora of the state. About two years ago I published three papers in the Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club, under the title, "Rarities from Montana," and in them several new species were described. In the summer of 1897, through the generosity of Mr. William E. Dodge, of this city, a botanical expedition was sent out to Montana and the Yellowstone National Park, under the auspices of this institution. The author was in charge of the expedition, and was assisted by Mr. Ernst A. Bessey, then of the University of Nebraska. Three months were spent in the field. With Bozeman as our base, we visited first the Bridger Mountains and the Spanish Basin, then crossed over into the Madison Valley, which we followed up into the Yellowstone Park, and returned by way of the Yellowstone River and Trail Creek Pass to Bozeman.
