THE LAND OF LITTLE RAIN - Other Water Borders

In the neighborhood of towns founded by the Spanish Californians, whether this plant is native to the locality or not, one can always find aromatic clumps of yerba buena , the "good herb" ( Micromeria douglassii ). The virtue of it as a febrifuge was taught to the mission fathers by the neophytes, and wise old dames of my acquaintance have worked astonishing cures with it and the succulent yerba mansa . This last is native to wet meadows and distinguished enough to have a family all to itself.
