My special observations on the vernal flowering time of plants extend<br />

about two weeks later, or to the end of the third week in April, after<br />

which the gTeat number of plants in bloom, including the amentaceous<br />

trees, render it diflicult to i)ursue the investigation, while at the same<br />

time the facts become less valuable. The results for the second and<br />

third weeks of April, always excluding all previously enumerated, are<br />

as follows<br />

:<br />
