The Backward Season in the White

The Mt. Washington season began
Il week ago with the daily appear

Washington, coming directly from

notes Editor Burt, cannot fail to b.

in blossom. At the base station one
sees quantities of buttercups and
other wild flowers usually seen IN
May at lesser attitudes, and which,
even at this altitude, usually cease
blossoming before July. The noun.
tain ash is luxuriant in its white
blossomsi wild strawberries may
still be gathered near the base,
while higher upthe mountain may
be found their blossoms.
