40 28 is very common here too in lower places as in pockets and along the railroad tracks. Cactus vurbasas and Opuntia fragilis are very common here. Bunch Grass controls the upland, but in places Yucca is abundant. The Batrachium - Myriophyllum society is in its prime here now. June 12- Rained last night and all this morning. In afternoon I walked out south a short distance - the weather threatened so I did not go far. The hills here south of the river have recently been farmed & the bunch grass is just beginning to asert itself anew. Heard a man say he had a ranch to sell as follows: 2000 A, 1500 in hay land, $8.00 per acre. June 13 Arrived Halsey 8:18 a.m. went out to Reserve with Charley . Wrote letters and developed pictures most of the day. In afternoon went up to "my" blowout and over to Shoemaker's . Yucca just beginning to bloom. Carex is here an important "grass" in the early green of the uplands as elsewhere. June 14- Collected in A.M. and developed pictures in P.M. Found that Onagra oaksiana is very common here. Folsom came in the evening. Rainy and cold most of the day.
