Prof. Schroeter set me at work making drawings of the seeds of Poa trivialis & pratensis to show in what respect they differ, at least that was his intention, but it has already been demonstrated to the satisfaction of all concerned that according to my drawings, they are identical. Great head!- Great scientific discovery! Hadn't I better rush into print with it?
I am now the sole owner and proprieter of a detective camera, a twenty five dollar Leitz microscope, a Zeisz dissecting microscope, and have ordered a Genera Plantarum. The Leitz has 3 objectives & 2 eye pieces, and a simple stand with no substage. If any one then at the Uni. wants me to bring a good microscope with me when I return I can probably oblige them - that is of course if I come back,. | 453though it will seem a pity to turn another cynic loose in Europe.
