 General rules for the guidance of mushroom hunters are trustworthy and serviceabie only when formulated by experienced botanists. The fol- lowing six rules by the late Dr. W. e. Farlow. Harvard University, will prevent, If scrupulously observed, the eating of notoriousiy poisonous spe- cies:
 "(1) Avoid fungi when in button or unexpanded stage; also those in which the flesh has begun to decay, even if only slightly.
 "(2) Avoid all fungi which have surrounded by a sac-like or scaly en- velop, especially if the gills are white. "(3) Avoid fungi having a milky juice unless the milk is reddish.
 "(D Avoid fungi in which the cap. or pileus, is thin in proportion to the , gills, and in which the gius are near | ly all of equal length. especially If the pileus is bright-colored. | 70 Avoid all tube bearing fungi in which the flesh changes color when 1 cut or broken or where the mouths of | the tubes are reddish and in the case of other tub bearing fungi experiment l with caution.
 -"6) Fungi which have a sort et spider web or focculent ring around the upper part of the stalk shoul1 ia general be avoided.
 Profession Barlow adds that Rule. 1, 2, and 5 may for the beginner b, regarded as absolute, with the excep- tion to Rule 2, Amanita caesarea, tn, gilis of which are yellow. Rules ,, and 6 have more numerous exceptions
 but these rules should be followed ir all cases unless the collector is con
 tent to experiment first with yer,
 smal quantities and learn the practic
 tiea! result
 "Other rules that will help D pro
 tect from serious poisoning are:
 Do not collect mushrooms in CT nea
 wooded areas except for study pur poses.
 This rule is very general, as i
 does not protect against the green
 gilled Lepota, nor against an occa sional Amanita and some others; bu it does prevent the beginner from en l tering the very lair of the mankiller. Do not accept mushrooms from self-styled expert, even if you hay l to disoblige dear friend. Learn tn fsubect yourself.
 [ Than an animal (nsect, squire turtle, etc) has eaten of a mush 5 room is no criterion of the edibilit ? of that mushrom for man. Insect lar vac thrive and grow fat on the vic :. lently poisonous Amanita phalloides. t Soaking or boiling in water doe l not render a poisonous species ed : ble."
