Dear Sir:

In preparing an exhibit of the Forest Flora of the United States for the World's Fair in 1893, we desire to secure the aid of as many competent collectors as possible in the various regions, and therefore wish to know if you will not kindly suggest,
if known to you, any botanical collectors who will be willing to undertake the collecting of forest botanical specimens in yours or other States with which they are familiar.

Instructions as to what species had quantities are wanted, together with directions as to what parts are desired, will be indicated to each collector.

For renumeration it is deemed best to proceeed on the basic of a stated price per specimen.

An early reply will be greatly appreciated, as our intention is to secure as many fruitng specimens as possible this fall.
