Dear sir,-
[ ] big leaf to ask a few questions.-
About how many different kinds of native trees are found in Cass Co. (Nebr.)?
I noticed in the Premium list of State Fair a Prem. offered on collection of Native grasses.
About how many was in the collections last year?
Please give me a word of instructions as to how to prepare them? How much in each specimen? Is the fruit required? Are the roots wanted? Should the grass be pressed? etc. Any information would be gladly received.
