That our American rorests abound in
plants whlsh possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This Informa
tion, imparted frjoly to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.
