R. Cooke has complained about the size of paper on which proofs are printed. He does not know that CD requested a larger size. Asks CD what should be done.

The two volumes of Variation [2d ed.] are unequal in size. Can CD reduce vol. 2 and increase vol. 1?

Does CD wish to publish Climbing plants [2d ed.] at once?

Explains that the plant is not consuming the flies, but that they die becasue they get stuck in the flowers when fertilising them.
