Paul Russell Authority
On Cherry Trees, Dies

Paul Russell missed the show
Of cherry blossoms for the first
time this year, although he had
a very special reason to go:
They were his project when
they were introduced to Wash
ington in 1912.
Mr.. Russell died Wednesday,
the day before his daughter
was to take him to the Tidal

been chosen as consultant for
the paintings.
The 73-year-old botanist did
not stop his work with the
trees after the Tidal Basin and

with them. He also helped

a nationally known authority
on identifying plant species by
seed alone, and in his 81 years
with the Agriculture Depart

collections Of seeds in the
United States-more than 40,-
900 walls of them.
After his retirement in 1859,
he continued to work three or
four days a week in the Belts
vile office, where lie was struck
by his fatal heart attack.
This was his life and this
was his home" a secretary at
the office said.
She recalled that during the
summer, when the plants in his
own garden at 3l41 Aberfoyle
place NV. were in bloom, he
