Cal. Pub. Amer. Archaeol. And Ethnol. , vol. 8, no. 4, p. 209, Berkeley, 1908) the Luisefios used the wood of Baccharis Douglasii for fire-making. Editor. DAVIS D I ECU EN CEREMONY OF THE DEATH IMAGES II The principal material, Juncus textilis, entering into the making of the images is found in the canons and gorges on the desert slope of the mountains and is know among the Indians as meskwdh; it is a rush that grows four feet tall in large tussocks. This plant is in general use and forms the m...atting framework or body of the images among all the southern California tribes. In the spring of 1918 the Yuma Indians sent one of their number across the desert, a distance of one hundred and fifty miles, at no small expense, to secure meskwdh from the Campo Indians, for use in making the images for their ceremony which occurred a fe\v months later. This rush is used also for matting for wrapping tribal ceremonial possessions, and the part near the root is employed in basketry, forming the brown designs; it is further used to make the porous leaching and hat baskets.
