by David Ellis (Author) 1918. In the course of his work, the writer comes in contact with a large number of people who are interested in botany as a recreation and a change from their regular work. It is noteworthy with such students that interest in a plant is considerably quickened when it can be shown that the plant in question possesses either medicinal or poisonous properties. In answer to this need, the writer compiled this book which imparts useful information and at the same time emphasizes the paramount importance of scientific training.
