These estimates wit include woods, seeds, fruit trees and plants, fibres and veget- able products of every discoverabie kind. Many samples of every kind will be on. We intend to get as many as twenty specimens of each specion in order to exchange with other institutions, both national and foreign, for specimens of the plants of other tropical countries that wi do not possess.” Prof. Britton added that it in be- Heved some of the rarest orchids in the world are growing unknown in the Interior of Porto Rico. There are \uxuriant tree palms one hun- dred feet in height, rich ferns gor- geous flowers of all descriptions, banana, orange, lemon and other planta. Pach of the Porto Rican plants, Prof. Britton said, would be treated according to ita nature. Some of the fern and other roots can be packed in sawdust aod sent here. The saw- dust gets moist and acta as a protec- tive of the roots. Not more than a week Is required to get them from Porto Rico to New York. From oth- er plants and trees cuttings will be made, and the full grown product will be developed here. Still other flowers, shrubs and plants will be raised from seeds gathered by Hel- ler and Henshaw. The Porto Rican flora will be pre- cisely the same degrees of heat here that prevail in their home. The heating In the greenhouses will be under perfect control, admitting of a temperature in every building of 70 degrees Fahrenheit during the coldest weather. The radiating sur- face of the pipes will be so valved that this temperature can be de- creased and regulated at will “In addition to the Porto Rican greenery in the horticultural bulld- ings,” said Prof. Britton, “we will have an abundance of logs of Porto fican trees and specimens of fruits, fibers, and vegetable products, which will be placed In the museum building. Altogether we thing the collection will be such as to make New York Bontanical garden the finest In the world.”"—New York Herald Michigan Railroa LANSING, March 13.—Commis- sioner Wesselius reports that the Michigan earnings of railroad com- pantes for December were $2,750,979, an increase of $383,737 over Dec ber, 1807.
