The following report deals with those Kansas
plants (one or two trees included) which are known to yield
or are suspected of yielding essential and fixed oils . No
cultivated plants have been considered. Bernard B, Smyth's
"Check List of the Plants of Kansas", published in Topeka,
1892, was used. This is the most complete catalog of Kansas
plants available at the present time. The numbers to the
Left of the botanical names refer to those of this check
list . A new flora of the state has been in preparation for
several years since the publication of the list mentioned
above, but it is still unfinished.
Wherever possible the analyses of the contained
oil is given or else references where that information may
be found. In many cases the analysis of the plant merely
mentioned the presence or even suspected presence of an oils.
