Dear Sir.

I received to day a copy of your report on the native trees & shrubs of Nebraska, I find the Wild Crab Apple is found in Gage, Johnson Nemaha & Butler Counties, it is also found in Holt Co. & I believe only on one stream (Steele Creek) you can probably get specimens by addressing O. T. Jones of Dorsey Holt Co Nebr

Kinnikinnik is also found in Knox Co along the Missouri & Niobrara Rivers
