content: These field notes provide a descriptive account of the tree population in areas of the Washington Territory, which during this time included Washington State, Idaho, and parts of Montana and Nebraska. The notes were taken in approximately 1860. They are dated from 6 August of an unknown year to 13 October of the next year. Gibbs notes the existence and abundance of several plant species as he travels through the Territory. Most specimen listed include pine and spruce varieties (family: Pinaceae ). Notes are narrative and diary like, describing tree density, locations, environment, and binomials found. Specific locations include Kootenay River, Spokane River, and the Rocky Mountains (within Washington Territory).

content: This is the second of two folders that document Alexander Wetmore's work in the western United States investigating crop damage from ducks and blackbirds in 1918 - 1919, while working for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Bureau of Biological Survey. Investigations took place in Arkansas, Washington, California, and Kansas. Materials discuss issues surrounding the options for preventing further crop damage. Allowing duck shooting by farmers and duck bombs the most commonly mentioned solutions. Wetmore visits effected sites, reports to conditions and possible solutions to USDA, and works with California Fish and Gaming Department on implementing decisions. |Letters discuss concerns about indescriminate issuance of duck hunting permits; possible solutions offered by concerned citizens (coal oil and tar on a rice field); some concern among the public about treatment of ducks. Articles discuss the situation in general, official order from the Secretary of Agriculture giving farmers permission to shoot ducks on their farms (copy of order for California is in the folder); appeals to the Federal Food Administration to allow shot ducks to be used as food (according to the article this would be a violation of the Federal game agreement with Canada at the time); and expense and use of duck bombs. Materials include correspondence, field reports, reference materials, articles, telegrams, business cards, news clippings, permits|Reports include Wild Ducks and other Birds in Relation to the Rice Crop in Arkansas in 1918 and Wild Ducks in Relation to Rice Culture in California (includes itinerary).

No specimens from the trip are listed. Several pages later is a bird count (undated). Additionally, another bird count is listed, dated June 28th, stating the site was five miles from a plantation. Most of the notebook is blank. The notebook entries begin again from at the back, and include list of expenditures referring to Maricao [Puerto Rico] dated May 18-29.
