A. E. Blount, A. M.,
Professor of Agriculture,
State Agricultural College.

Fort Collins, Colo., May, 17. 1887

Prof. C. E. Bessey;
My dear Sir,

In [?]-[?]
I notice your valuable and most
excellent "Report on Forage Plants of the
Prairies and Plains."

In my report from which you quite
please notice the great injustices the
printers did me.

On page 35, line 11 they make me say
"[fourth?/fourty?] 7 2/3 feet". It should be "total
7 2/3 feet."

You do me the kindness to make the
"7" a 1, for which many thanks.

Our whole reports are fearfully "butchered
up" by the printesr, arising from not
having been proof read.

I shall be very glad to see your [?]
Report on Grasses when finished.

Very respectfully yours
A. E. Blount.
