Washington Government Printing Office 1909 Disbound Good 
37 pages, paper, removed from bound volume of miscellaneous documents. United States. Dept. Of Agriculture. Bureau of Plant Industry. Bulletin 148. "This inventory of seeds and plants imported is the sixteenth in a series which was begun in 1898. It contains only the Introductions of only three months, and as the three months happened to fall at a time when our agricultural explorer Mr. Frank N. Meyer was in this country preparing for further exploration and Prof. N. E. Hansen was on his way to Central Asia or preparing there to collect the seeds of wild alfalfas on the steppes, the number of plants imported is small. It represents, therefore, only those things which have been secured by correspondence with our agents and friends in different parts of the world. Through a correspondent in Chile, Mr. Jose D. Husbands, an unusual collection of seventy-two potato varieties was secured, among which are wild types from the archipelago of Chiloe and the adjoining mainland of Chile. " FR8-2; 37 pages
