southern drainage of the Missouri River. Simpson reports it for the Mississippi drainage generally. A three hundred mnile survev of the Osage River, beginning at the headwaters, reveals the shell of this species in all its external form and nacre-color extending to granifera and even including Pleth. cooperianus. Variation in nacre- color for this species is remarkable; however, this deviation from the unipurple nacre of the type may be due to local reaction since it is most noticed in the Osage below the region of medicinal springs. Its favorable habitat is that of rocky shoals, but is occasionally found in deep, quiet water with mud bottom where it acquires a smoother, heavier and less if-iflated shell. The writer has had the good fortune to secure, for tite first tip;me, several individuals gravid with mature glochidia. The larva is fournd to be somnewhat smaller than that of R. granifera and with hinge line shorter and straighter; as to form, and even as to size, it is hardly distinguishable from granisjera when allowance is made for variation in a large series. This glochidium is figured and described here Jor the first tifme (See Plate I, Fig. 4). It is observed by the writer to be gravid from June until the middle of August, bearing ripe glochidia mostly about the middle of July. It -is decidedly a sbort period breeder.

ENUMERAVIT J. LUNELL.
The Vascular Plants of North Dakota.-I. With Notes by J. Lunell.
INTRODUCTORY. The statements and data furnished in the following series
of papers are derived substantially from a twofold origin: (i) My own, herbariwm, a part of which contains the visible .results of my wanderings in this state during the years of I 889 to 1914
(except 1897 and 1903, when field work in the state of Oregon and in Europe attracted mv exclusive attention); and (2) My Pan ama-Pacific Exposition Herbarilum oj North Dakota, which contains a rich supply of its own habitational informations, atnd
VASCULAR PL4ANTS Of NORTH DAKOTA I5 3
whose title and origin therefore no doubt deserve a brief explanatory mention here, especially as it never was sent to said exposition.
In December 1912 I was requested by Gov. Burke's Panama- Pacific Commission to appear before it on a certain evening in the city of Grand Forks. The commission expressed as its opinion that a representation of the natural plant wealth of the state would constitute an excellent exhibit, and decided unanimously to recommend me to be trusted with the creation of suich an exhibit. In my reply of acceptance, I promised that the best duplicates in my exchange herbarium would be available for this purpose, and that I, in order to fill existing vacancies in said herbarium and increase the value and completeness of the exhibit would during the green seasons of I913 and 1914 visit suitable localities within the state, where I knew the required plants were growing. Also a sum as remuneration for my expenses and services was fixed. My work was commenced immediately and continued without interruption almost until January I9I5.
After a short life of a few weeks the commission expired and was supplanted by another one of republican denomination. This commission ought to have taken into consideration that I was working in good faith and would continue so until advised to the contrary. If there was any chance for alteration or overturn of the recommendation made by the first commisssion, the new body ought to have forewarned me early, in order to save me from futile investments of time, work and funds. But it kept an obstinate silence until I had finished my object a task of two years' dura- tion-and then decided to ignore the recommendation made by its predecessor. My exhibit was not industrial, no dollar-maker, but it had been originated by no action, no scheme of mine, and it possessed a permanent value, far above the ephemeral ones illustrative of the majority of exhibits prevalent at fairs of this brand.
In I900, under the auspices of the North Dakota, Agriculttral College was published: "A Preliminary List of the Sperrmatophyta, Seed-bearing Plants of North Dakota, by H1. L. Bolley and L. R. Waldron," containing 775 species and varieties. A revision of this list, called: "Check List of North Dakota Plants, Ferns and Flowering Plants, North Dakota Agricultural College Herbarium, Bolley and Bergman, compiled by G. F. Bergman (after Britton's Manual)," not dated, appeared I believe in 1913. To the number
1r4 THt AMERICAN MIDLAND NATURALIST
of species and varieties, contained in the first list, had been added I87, making a total of 962. The present list of mine, being the third of its kind, contains about I I 50 numbers, some 8oo of which are found in the two previous lists, being an addition of 350 numbers not listed before, and raising the total number for this state discovered until the present time (May I9I5) to at least 1300. My field of work has been mainly the Lake region, this being without contradiction or doubt the most important and the most prolific part of the state botanically, all the new forms whatever of plant life (with one or two exceptions), which have been found within the state, belonging here. A moderate, conservative estimate would raise this present number of I300 up to the two thousand, even now, since the "improvement" work has gone on recklessly for many years. When I, 26 years ago, commenced my collecting in this state, it must have be n considerably higher than now, to deem from the number of species believed to be extinct.
It would hardly be recommendable to delay the publishing of these papers until the names of those supposed-to-be-700 plants could be added. It is fain to predict that this number will never be reached. Too much ground has been ploughed, the beautiful natural groves have been transformed into pastures and hog pens, the fast evaporation from the areas laid open, and the quick absorption by the latter of rain and melting snow leave no surplus to be drained off into the sloughs and the coul6es, these are almost all dry, even in the early spring, lakes a few years ago covering square miles have vanished, and our largest water main, Devils Lake, is disappearing fast. The semi-aridity of the country seems to be increased in direct proportion to the breaking of the virgin prairies. Still, a paternal legislature, in spite of the steadily growing difficulties in providing means for paying the regular budget, has just seen fit to vote $60,000 for the promotion of immigration, and the likely-to-be-added popu- lation will in all probability direct its first efforts to the quick overturning of the remaining intact portion of the prairie. Of all menaces to the continued propagation of the native flora this change in soil conditions is the worst, the most destructive.
And these 700 plants can not be found without the co- operation of collectors. The federal government furnished botanists when surveying the country, and got up a representation of the
VASCULAR PLANTS OF NORTH DAKOTA 155
common plants growing everywhere, but it is self-evident that almost all the rare plants the plants which are found after visits to a place repeated for the tenth, or the hundreth, or perhaps the thousandth time could not be noticed in the collected material. The government's activity ends here, and would certainly not be extended to taking any part in the collection of the 700 plants.
Turning our attention to the large pnblic or private insti- tutions, some of them, often commianding almost unlimited funds, are in the habit--when it is desired to make a study of some special plant or plant group-of sending circulars to botanists, requesting them to "give up" what they have on hand or to collect the desired plants for them. In the majority of cases the botanist so addressed will "for the best interests of science" yield, and some will even find the proposition immenselv flattering to themselves! There are perhaps a few who would say that they are willing to fulfil the request, if the institution pays the cash expenses necessarily connected with it, but such a proviso will upset the whole plan. It is deemed unwise to use the funds of the institution for such a purpose (wlhy pay for somethilng that can be had for the asking?), and the scheme is dropped. Some institutions make their requests for material most valuable to them with "thanks," others do not even send an acknowledge- ment when they have received the goods. The most generous of the institutions return duplicates of equal or sometimes higher quality than the material received had, others use the occasion to unload the most repugnant and worthless trash, others again admit being in debt and promise payments in plant duplicates, but these are never sent. Still others pav their indebtedness by incorporating and matriculating the received specimens as gifts, and immortalize the donator by adding his name in a special column and opposite the other annotations, thus substituting stones for bread! Some other more substantial means are cer- tainly needed for the discovery of our 700 plants!
It remains to be ascertained, if the conditions within our own state are more favorable for the reaching of this end. The state has a geological survey with a staff botanist, whose salary is supposed to be reimbursed to the farmers by the increase in profits from their land derived from the knowledge of the plants growing on it in its virgin condition. The reports of the govern- ment survey ought to be available, and some additional knowl-
I56 THt AMtRICAN MIDLAND NATURALIST
edge can certainly be expected from a second survey, but its scope is confined to the common plants. Almost all of the rare plants will remain undiscovered. The place needing weekly visits for years can not reveal its secrets on the very day when the surveyor scans it. When writing this I have before me Public Document No. 45 with a report of a survey from Williams County. This gives 236 as a total of plants found. There is no doubt in my mind that at least twice this number could easily be col- lected within the area, and at the same time that there is no neglect on the part of the botanist. Wherever he went, he cer- tainly collected all there was to collect. Another striking fact is, that out of these 236 species all bUt 23 (i. e., go per cent) are common plants in my home corner, 200 miles to the east of Williams County, and to an overwhelmingly large extent prob- ably in almost all the other parts of the state. A home botanist with an ordinary imagination would no doubt be able to make out a correct list of plants growing inside of any county not visited by him, with the exception of the rare or comparatively rare plants, of course. I would predict, that a majority of the 700 undiscovered plants would remain hidden for Ioo years to the botanist-surveyor! I have learned, that this survey has not been at work recently.
It is surprising to me that so few people of means turn their attentions to the accumulation of botanical objects with their unlimited multiplicity, in place of storing buttons, canes, smoking pipes, stamps, etc. There are few things if any, so beautiful, so fascinating as an artfully preserved herbarium plant. To the true botanist the joy of collecting surpasses all other joys. The rich man can use his time as he pleases and could easily amass in one year a plant wealth larger than another mortal could accumulate in a lifetime. Is there any prospect that it would arise in this state a rich man turning his mind to the wild-flowers and taking up the task of trying to find those 700 plants unrevealed yet to all?
At the present there is, if I am not incorrectly informed, no field work done within the state, except by Prof. 0. A. Stevens, representing the Agricultural College, by Dr. J. F. Brenckle of Kulm, N. Dak., whose excellent work in mycology, made public in his Fungi Dakotenses, can not be overestimated, and by the writer, Prof. Stevens, having enjoyed the liberty of choosing
VASCULAR PLANTS OF NORTH DAKOTA 157
his own places for field research, has had some striking and even astonishing results. My good fortune has always guided me to find places of exceptional value to the botanist. During my wanderings I have often happened on plants, either immature or overripe, the proper time for their collection being so far in the past or in the future, that their places in the system could not be properly set down. They are scattered widely apart in the state, and each of thefn needs its individual attention on a certain date of the season, and on a certain place. I am loth to leave them alone, and I would not do so, were it not for more or less apparent reasons, hinted at in these pages or readable between the lines. The summers yet allotted to me on this planet of ours would perhaps give me enough of time for finishing this work, and I would spend them on nothing in the world more agreeable and more preferable to myself.
Dr. Brenckle necessarily paying almost his entire attention to fungi, I myself being on the verge of actual or partial or fancied retirement from botanical field work, and Prof. Stevens likely alone upholding this branch of study within the state, what are the present prospects for the discovery of those remaining 700 vascular plants? If it becomes possible for Prof Stevens to avoid the lurking rocks of politics and continue the work incess- antly for a life time, he will certainly discover a considerable part of them.
Thus, being temperamentally not oversanguinely hopeful, I believe that the most prudent way is to distrust the uncertain future and publish the results attained so far.
My list contains mainly names of plants collected by myself, and where other botanists have contributed, they have been invariably credited for it. About 150 species, contained in the Agricultural College lists, have been omitted for the sole reason, that I have had no occasion to look at them. I do by no means charge that thev have been wrongly identified.
In the naming of plants which I have considered new I had precious help from my own general herbarium, which offered means of comparison with related species. In a minority of cases the descriptions furnished in manuals and periodicals proffered reasons for segregation sufficient and convincing at least to myself. In a number of instances it has been my enviable luck that Dr. Edw. L. Greene placed his immense experience and invaluable

advice at my disposal. The changes from the nomenclature hitherto in vogue, the administering of justice botanically, the meting out of his due to everybody have, with the kilnd consent of Prof. J. A. Nieuwland, been submitted to and supervised and worked out by him, and for the sake of convenience, wvhere the new name differs materiallv from the one hitherto used, this last has been parenthetically affixed. For the expert identification of a majority of Cyperacecae I am under obligation to Mr. K. K. Mackenzie. Likewise it has become a fixed habit of mine to submit a considerable part of my grasses to Prof. A. S. Hitchcock and Mrs. Agnes Chase for determiination, fronm which there is no appeal, as no one would question their finality.
No criticism in this preface shall apply to the brother-botanist who pays his own botanical expenses out of his salary or his private purse. Nothing is too good for him. Hlis wishes are so many laws to me, and I will gladly and withouLt material remuneration extend to him all the help I can, in order to make his road smooth and facilitate his researches.
Any previous names of Northi Dakota plants for which I am responsible, being not mentioned in this list, and any of my descriptions pertaining to North Dakota plants, being not in conformity with those given in these papers, are herewith repealed.
If some one should conclude that a mind saturated with bitterness and "gall" has dictated these lines and exaggerated this quite gloomy review of existing conditions botanically, he commits himself to a grave error. I have just tried to relate undisfigured facts, with a mind overflowing of tenderness and good will towards all.

Both species have flowers 4-8 mm. in diam., or petals 2-4 mm. in length. The A. plantago thus described is common on the European continent, but the writer collected in I897 on an island in the Baltic Sea a specimen, which can not be differentiated from A. subcordatum, having broadly ovate, semi-cordate, obtuse leaves. This leaf form is the same in

Has flowers of the same size as the species, but the leaves are lanceolate.
The varieties of A. subcordatum are found merely occasionally, but the species is abundant in wet soil throughout the state.

OUR BIRDS IN THE WINTER OF 19I3-I4.
BROTHER ALPHONSUS, C. S. C.
This winter the total number of species exceeded that of the previous one by two species. The totals of each of the months were also larger than those of last winter.-December having 5 more; January, 7 more; February, 5 more. The Cardinal, Meadowlark, Bronzed Grackle, Goldfinch and Screech Owl were not seen last winter; while the Northern Shrike and Herring Gull did not appear this winter.
The weather conditions this year were favorable most of the winter, and to this was due the presence of certain species that had never been recorded before in winter. These were the Meadow- lark and Bronzed Grackle. Only for a short time-in early Feb- ruary-the temperature fell below zero, that month having had the smallest number of species.
The Crow had 22 records for December, with the longest interval, 6 days. In January there were 20 observations, the longest absence having been 4 days. February shows the largest record for the species-26 days present, and 3 days, the greatest interval. For the three months the total number of records was 68.
The Blue Jay was found on 25 days in December, with an absence of only one day at any time during the month. The January records reached 26, with the same absence as in December. The cold of February reduced the records of the Jay to 22, with 3 days as the longest interval. The total for the three months was 73 records, the largest number of any species this winter.
This is the first winter I have found the Red-headed Wood- pecker as a resident species. Just what caused the bird not to migrate may not be easy to determine. Weather conditions may have had something to do with its staying, as is shown by the

examinations apparently having been made on dry specimens. With the succulence of the former eliminated by the drying process and the different colors in both species changed to a dusky gray, common for both, their general appearance shows a similarity not existing in the fresh plants.]

THE STORY OF OUR BIRDS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR I 9 I 5.'
BY BROTHER ALPHONSUS, C. S. C.
It affords me great pleasure to have the honor to address the members of the Chicago Ornithological Society. The regu- larity with which this sdcietvyholds it meetings, and the methodical way in which its members study bird life are evident tokens of the vitality of the association. It seems to me that such manifest enthusiasm for so delightful a pursuit as ornithology should awaken a similar interest in many others. Indeed it seems to me that the influence of those who are so fortunate as to be ad- mitted to this society should create a wide-spread desire to share the advantages they possess. Why should the Chicago Orni- thological Society- not feel that it has a great mission to the people of this city-to be instrumental in promoting a knowledge of

dates of migration can be given only in special articles on the subject, and without such methodical study no satisfactory results can be obtained. I have in many published articles in the AMERICAN MIDLAND NATURALIsT attempted a complete state- ment of the migratory habits of the birds of Notre Dame, Indiana. To these articles, then, I refer my auditors for an exact account of present conditions of migration.
Thus the story of our birds ends. To have done full justice to the subject would require a volume. I have aimed at giving only a summary of my observations-and this mostly in what related to the distribution and migration of our birds. The more interesting, but not more important, part of a bird's life-its habits-I have barely touched upon, chiefly because hitherto my study of birds' habits has been incidental, and can not be thor- oughly done without neglecting the other departments. I hope to take up this part of ornithology when I shall have finished my study of the migration and distribution of our birds.

666. Lathyrus venosus Muhl.; Willd Sp. P1. 3: 1092. (1803). Devils Lake, Turtle Mountains. Fourteen years I found this
plant occupying a plot of about an acre surface capacity on the Devils Lake ground. It was supported by some invisible shrubbery raising it several feet above the level, with the apparent exclusion of all other plant life. It looked like a hill composed of flowers in myriads. In all my life I have seen nothing as beautiful. Chatauqua colonization, incessant smoke from gasoline engines and domestic animal visitation wiped out all this splendor, not as fast as fire would, but more thoroughly. Nature is exclusive, the more so to those not appreciating her loveliness, and she withdraws her most exquisite grandeur in the presence of unfriendly man.

FONATA Adanson, Fam., P1. 2I4. (1763). Phlox was used by Theophrastus as Philoginon or Phlogion
for a Lychnis (acc. to Linnaeus). Anguillara called the Phlox Theoph. an Amaranth (Celosia?), others a pansy. Plukenett, Ray changed the name to Lychnidia 1. Lychnides. Linnaeus took up Phlox, and he says in Hort. Cliff. 63: " Phlox est nomen quoddam Theophrasti desumptum a floris flameo igneoque colore hinc ad Lychnidum a plurimis relatum familiam quod cum ibi superfluum

sit hujus generis fecimus, cum ad maximam partem flores flameos et rubros proferat Lychnidibusque a facie externa affinis videatur nobis non placet ista nominum apendiculatio quae apud syrones maj ore non placet ista nominum appendiculation quae apud tyrones majorem confusionem quam ullus error producit."
Lychnidea was applied by Lobelius (1576, earlier than Ray etc.) to a Silene or Lychnis! Hence it will seem that Fonna is the valid name.

Stem slender, 4-5 dm. high, simple, with minute leaves in three of the upper axils indicating future branching if an extension of the season would permit it. Leaves large, the maximum size being I2x3.5 cm., gradually diminished toward the top, thin, acuminate, sessile, denticulate. I accept as undeniable that the inflorencence has a few heads, though I have not seen them. The type specimen has a solitary head, which is almost sessile, with the disk i cm. high and wide. Involucre lax, with 3 rows of linear, white-margined, green-tipped bracts. Rays blue.
This species, with its leaves resembling an exuberant form of A. paniculatus, and its head in size and color suggestive of A. salicifolizts, was collected by the writer in the foot-hills of the Turtle Mountains, near Dunsieth, Rolette County, September 3, I9II.

Growing in the muddy soil of low meadows on the border of James River (hence the species name), near Jamestown, Stuts- man County, where it was collected by the writer on August 24, I9I3. Found in similar surface conditions at Leeds on Sept 3, I9I6.
TESSENIA Bubani, Nuov. Giorn. Bot. It. V: 3I8 (I873), also Fl. Pyr. 2: 263. (I900). Name in honor of Tessen, a chinese emperor who in I200 A. C. had a splendid botanical garden. If Tessen the botanist deserved to be honored the name is just, as good, as it would be bad if dedicated to the imperial Mecenas. Botanical work and research, not material gifts, should inspire a name.

PLANTS OF MANHATTAN AND BLUE RAPIDS, KANSAS, WITH DATES OF FLOWERING. I.
BY 0. A. STEVENS.
Under this title it is intended to bring together the writer's observations made chiefly during the years 1904 to I909 inclusive. The list is fairly complete, comprising about 6oo species, speci- mens of practically all of which were collected and are now deposited with the Blue Rapids High School. The dates of flowering refer only to the beginning of the flowering period and are the results of a practise of recording each season the first flowers seen, together with a note on the approximate time which it was believed the species had been in flower. Many of these records are of common plants under constant observation and quite accurate. Others are doubt- less subject to correction.
In recording the time of flowering it has seemed advisable to divide the month into periods of five days each, using the days 5, io, etc.; also giving the exact average date where the dates

In conformity with the absolute priority rules applied by Dr. J. A. Nieuwland in his "Notes on our local plants" (Am. Midl. Nat. I9I2 and following years), the existing names have been replaced by older ones wherever he found botanical history uphold- ing such a change. If our oldest ancestor Adam has not been quoted, the reason is either that he was not a botanrist, or that records are wanting or not obtainable! This, we are confident, not to say certain, is the nomenclature of the future, to be altered only in such instances when subsequent researches perhaps dis- cover names of higher seniority. So far, the ruling is considered revolutionary and has not yet been adopted in this or any other country, barring a few. The names are. not forced on anyone, ,as the commonly accepted nomenclature is inserted additionally throughout the list.
Since, Nuttall and Geyer visited the Dakota Territory in the first half of the last century, a new plant has barely been discovered in this state for the subsequent fifty years or more. Gray's Manual ed. VI was considered "final," and to suggest a new plant name was

censured as new-fangledness and as evidence of the wickedness of the times! That the barriers have broken down of late the number of new species and varieties enumerated in this list is sufficient evidence: Brainerd i var., Brenckle i var., Greene 14 species, Greenman i sp.,, Lunell 57 sp. and ioo var., Nelson isp. and 2 var. and Niewwland I sp. The types of a plurality of the most remarkable of these new plants are in my herbarium and will not be set free until the State of North Dakota carries out some certain obligations entered into by its politicians, or my herbarium gets a permanent repository in some other state. The originally estimated total species and varieties in this list has been exceeded by about one hundred numbers.

A slender tree (scarcely appearing as a brush, as I have been unable to discover any branching-out from the ground), 3-5m. high, with smooth, ashy gray bark and gray or reddish twigs. Leaves after maturity bright green, glabrous on both sides, firm, ovate-obovate, the proportions varying in centimeters 7:6, 7:5.5, 6:4.5, 6:4, 5:4, 5:3, 4:5.4, 4:5.3, and 4:3, the outline generally becoming narrowed or more or less acute or cuneiform toward the base, with an acute apex at least in young leaves (a rounded or notched apex often caused by some injury to the top), and an irregular dentation of the margin from the middle to the apex. Besides, mature leaves present quite variable outlines. Flowering racemes 2-3 cm. long, pedicals o:5-Icm. long; sepals triangular-lanceolate or broader; petals spathulate, 5-6mm. long. Fruiting raceme scm. long. Pome small, 5mm. in diameter (but only one seen). Winter buds pubescent.
