ON THE MANAGEMENT OF

ELEMENTAKY CLASSES IN BOTANY.

The fo lowing suggestions are oEfered in the hope that they may be founcl helpf,,! to tlio.e who u.e begmmng the work of teaching Botany, as well as to the young student. The writer, nundful of the ditficulties and perplexities which he has himself often had to encounter, makes no apologv for thus presentmg what appear to him to be the chief essentials to success in tliis department of scl^'ool work. It goes without saying that no written instructions can ever nutke a successful teacher where natural enthusuvsm is wanfng, but it is equally true that the young enthusiast may derive some benefit from he arger experience of others ; and while the intelligent and active teacher will not slavishly follow lie detads of any method, but will be quick to avail liimself of any legitimate device which will serve hispurpo.se, st.ll there are broad principles upon which those who have had practical experience will probably agree. In the following remarks an attempt is made to outline the course of a vear's work whicli It )s tliought will be found practicable in any High School.

When to begin Botanical Work.- A good deal might be said in favor of beginnin.' our botanica work in the spring. At that time, when nature is awaking from tJie torpor of winter and the hrst leaves and Howers are unfolding, it is especially delightful to ramble abroad. Then perlr.ps more than at any other time, the youthful mind is attracted by the forms of the vegetable world, and is prepared to enter upon the systematic study of them with more than ordinary enthusiasm And if it were possible to continue through the summer the botani.^al work begun in the spring, doubtless the most satisfactory results would be obtained. There is, however, the break caused by the loi.g vacation during which teacher and pupils are separated and school work generally abandoned, so that when classes are resumed in September the work of the spring has to be gone o\er again, with the disadvan- tage of having, in most cases, new pupils as well as old ones to deal with. On the whole, therefore as the school year begins in September, and a general re-organization of classes then takes place it seems most advantageous to begin the botanical work at that time. During September and O.;tober an abundant supply of material is available, with the adva.itage also of access to fruits and seeds af all kinds, as well as flowers. It is exceedingly desirable that during this period, when fresh plants can bo had for examination, the botanical lessons should be frequent. If a short lesson could be given every day at this time surprising progress would be ma.le in a few weeks. AVhen summer has passed by and work has to be confined to such material as has been collected for winter use, the lessons need noc be given so often ; probably twice a week would be found quite sufficient. Then, in the spring, when field work can be resumed, the lessons may again be increased in frequency for a time.

How to begin.— Assuming, then, that the botanical work is commenced in September the next question to consider is how to carry on tlie work of the class so as to give the subject its highest educational value. Botany is essentially a science of observation. One of its verv highest, uses as a factor in education is that it trains the eye to habits of accuracv. But, in "order to

infer too much from the examination of a sin.i;lo si>pcimen. as variations similar to that now under notice are not ti-common. The coiiesion and adhesion of the stamens will next be observed, and the " Eemarks " column filled nd checked as before. Pistil "Wanting " will be the next entrv, and will conrplete the examin Jj n A the staminate blossom. The fertile tlowrs will then be distributed and tlie work earned on in L ■ :.,anie manner, the pupils being led to lind out for themselves the differem.o lietween the two kinds of flowers, and no observation on their part being considered altogether un^^orthy of notice, even though relatively unimportant. The significance of the invasion of the Howers by insects can now be nnulo clear, and the pupils should be advised to observe the trees from time to time afterwards, in order to .see what progress the fruit is making, to note the development of tho win-s, the lengthening of pedicels, and finally tho sprouting of tho seeds and the [.roduction of a .strong new l)lant, all in one season. Other points, such as the shape of the leaves, comparison with other sj-ecies of maple, etc., etc., may be introduced at the discretion of the teacher, but care shouM be taken to avoid vagueness and confusion in offering for the consideration of the pupils more than they can rea.lily «iasp, and the 7-e/a««e importance of points of structure should be distinctly brouglit out. For this reason a form of schedule, which will present the various features in their proper perspective and avoid giving tho impression that all oliservations are of equal importance, is the best. It is, in tho writer's judgment, a great mistake to dwell at lirst with any degree of minuteness upon the morphology of the various organs-to attach much importance, for instance, to the minute description of leaves. What is wante.l is to get a clear apprehension of tlie leading characteristics of the great groups of plants, and the main facts of plant life, and anything which tends to cloud the perception of these thin<^s must be a hindrance to true progress. After tyi.ical floral forms have been examined, and some knowledge has been gained of the more comprehensive groups, then it will be proper to procaed with the study of those iiner distinctions upon which depends the separation of genera and of species, and which are essential to know m order to use intelligently the classified list of the common plants of the country.

Winter Work.— As already suggested, tho lessons in the fall should be as freqitent as circum- stances will allow, so as to complete the examination of as many tyjiical Wo-vers as possible Jlean- while preparations should be going on for the winter lessons. Eruits, .seeds, leaves, bulb.s, tubers cones, etc., etc.. should be collected in as great variety as possible. A sui.ply of ferns should also be hud in, neatly pressed and mounted, as these plants may be studied nearly as well in winter as in summer. Elementary microscopic work can also be just as well done in winter. Every school should now have a good compound microscope, and the teacher who can skillfully cut a few hand sections has at his command an inexhaustible source of interest and delight to his class. In all this winter work, and indeed in all botanical work, a good deal of attention should be given to draicimj. It forms a very useful e.xercise, for example, to dictate or write on the blackboard, a botanical description of a leaf, and then re.iuire the class to draw tho leaf so described. So, also, if a section is viewed through the microscoi)e, a drawing of what has been observed should in all cases be demanded, as the most satisfactory way of ascertaining whether the observer has carried away the right impression ; whether he has, in short, seen what he was desired to see. It will often happen, too, in the examination of minute flowers, that it becomes necessary to dissect out and exhibit separately special portions of the ilower, say, for example, the pollen-masses of the milkweed, or a single stamen of the pine. The te.acher should, in such a case, perform the necessary dissection ; and having fixed the portion proi)erly under the lens, pass it round for tlie inspection of tho jiupils. They may then be re<)uired to make a drawing of the object, and having thus apprehended what is necessary, may l>e asked to try to repeat tho dissecting process for themselves.

Tho study of tho structure and germination of .seeds is another j.art of the work which can be very well done in winter, and many interesting and valuable lessons may be given upon these point.s. Seeds of different sorts should be placed upon wet flannel or blotting-paixjr and allowed to germinate. The

Tlie brnvr grounds and the lake region, as being somewhat ditlicult of access, are assigned to the sturdier bovs. whilst ttio hUlsulo and the exploration of the woods and fields above are divid.^l anumg tlie remainder. "

It is agreed that the work of collection shall be limited to two hours, and acc.irdinglv. as the distnit boom of tlie noon b.dl comes over the fields, our botanists begin to straggle in again. It is nearly one o c lock, however, before the last detachment arrives. This consists of tlie boys who have made their wav to the eastern end of the lake and the beaver-meadow. Their appearance is hailed with a shout of admi- ra ion, for of all tlie collections of flowers, theirs is certainly tlie most imposing. They must, indeed, have hit upon a veritable botanic garden, for each of them carries a huge bou,,uet, made up of a profusion of .ady s .Slippers and other Orchids, together with Lilies, Pitcher Plants, and beautiful pink Pvrolas These boys are flushed with the excitement of their walk and their sueeess; and though the ...nldition of their lower extremities would seem to indicate that they are not altogetluu- unacpfainted with lio^s. they make no reference thereto, but dwell with enthusiasm, and .some degree of extravagance perhaps, on the beauties of the scene they have just left. But the others, though their colle.-tion will not vie in brilliancy with the produc s of he beavei-meadow. have, nevertheless, in nearly every case, something of more than onlinary interest to show. J ho ex,.lorers of the lako margin were fortunate enough to fin.l a punt, by means of

ti' w%''Tv "i , ''''"'l'' '''?"'*■ ^'^'""^ ^'"'''^ '^''''"^ Utricularias, the pretty white Watei-Crowfoot, and ho Water-Shield, were brought within their reach ; and on tlie cool northern bill-sid.-, trailin.^ over the baseo moss-covered stumps, speeinu.ns of tlie Twin-Flower-a special favorite of the great Linmeus. and named 7w«„o.a Jom,7,. m his honor-were obtaine.l, as well as Violets of various species, Woodbin..s Mitehellas etc. The open fields and fencc^rows yielded St. John-s-worts, Elder, Onaphaliums of several species, a handsome Rudbeckia-the purple Cone-flower-and of course the ubi.piitous Dandelion and Alav- weed, and Mullein. ' ■

_ But just n<,w there an. cravings wliich are not intellectual, cravings too urgent to be <lisre-arde,l. The interest in botany is. at this moment, deci.ledly of a secondary nature, and when the lunch bask..ts are sent for, and hetr contents exp,,sed to view, the gravest doubts of their su.Hciency are entertained and freely expressed. _ 1 he fullest kind of justice is done them, and in the course of a few minutes no vesti-ro whatso- ever remams-notlung even suggestive of them, save the shrunken wrappers, upon which some eyes are now t.irned with an expr,.ss,on almost approaching to gloom. It is suggested, and the suggestion meets with no opposition, that what..ver may be the merits of botanical pursuits from an intelCtual point of view, they hav-e recommendations of a physical nature, not wholly unworthy of consideration ; and it be-^ins o dawn upon these y^outhiul scientists, though as yet they have no clear conception of the ideal .tens Lra rnrorpore .a.o, that Botany has this decided advantage over all other school studies, that, to pursue it with efficiency, exercise of body must accompany exercise of mind. They can also comprehend that tho botanical

Xote tliat the e.s.sential jj.-irts of tl.e pistil are tlie ovary or .seed-bearin- part, ami the stigma wliich receives the pollen.

The stylo is often wanting, and tlien tlio stigma is

SCHnilti.

An exco,,tional pistil is found in f/ymnospcnncu.s plants like tlie P.ne. Hero the ovules are not enclosed, but are attacliod to the inner face of an open leaf or scale, the scales forming a cona (Figs. 1(!7, Ki8, 169).

Cohesion.

Apocarpous : wlien the carpels are not united together in any way (Fig. loii).

SYNCAUPOU.S: when the carpels are grown together in any degree (Pig. 160). Thoy may be united merely at the base of the ovary, or to tlie tojj of the style.

Adhesion.

SuPEiuoit: when entirely free from the calyx (Fi

as in Buttercup, Shei)herd"s Purse, etc. I.vfEiuoH: when surrounded by the calyx-tube wliich grows

fast to it (Fig. 134,/), as in Apple and Fuchsia.

I'i2,/),

Definition.

THE OVULE.

Ovules are the Iw.lios wliich, after fertiliiiation Ijy tlie pollen develoiw into seeds. '

Placentation.

By tliis term is meant the arrangement of the |ilacontas, or projections in the interior of tlie ovary upon which the ovules grow. Placentation is

(a) Minjinal, in a simple pistil like that of Pea, the placenta being on one seam or .v«/?</-e (Fig. 158).

(b) Axile or Central, when the pistil is compound, and the dissepiments meet in the centre of the ovary (Fig. 160.)

(c) Parietal, when the compound ovary is one-celled and the ovules are borne on the walls (Fig. Kil).

(d) Free Central, when the ovary is one-celled, and the ovules are borne on a column which rises from the bottom of the cell (Fig.s. 170, 171).

Parts of the Ovxde.

FUNICULU.S: the stalk by which the ovule is attached to the placenta (Fig. 173,/). If this stalk is absent the ovule is sessile.

Prlmink : the outer coat of the ovule (Fig. 172, ai).

Secunuine: the inner coat (Fig. 172, ii).

Miciwpvle: the minute opening through the two coats (Fig.

Kinds of Ovule.

()UTl..n-Koi..„:s : wl>en the ovule is erect, and ,he niicrojivlc is as far as possible from the funiculus or point of attach- ment (Fig. 172).

Anatu.,i.oi;s: when the ovule is completely iuvortcd or hot til'on Itself so as to bring the microp) lo close to the ],oi>,t of attachtnent (Fig. 17;j). In this case the funlchis becomes fused with the j.rimine ou oue side, forntin- the raphe (Fig. ]7.j, /■}.

CAMi.vi,OTUoi.()irs : when the ovule is half bent over (Fig. 171 1.

Fertilization.

Ovules are .converted into seeds by the action of i.oUcn uj.on

them. Pollen grains fall upon the stigma which is moi.t

and retains them. The grains begin to grow as shown

in Fig. l.jO, the inner coat being jirotruded as a slender

tube which mtikes its way down through the stvle into

the ovary, and then through the n.icropyle of the ovule,

finally attaching itself to the surface of the embrvo-sa,'

and carrying the contents of tiio i.ollen-grain wiili it'

Presently growth begins insi.le the embrv.,-sac, an.l .001,

the embryo is formed. It is the presence of the embrvo

wh.cn marks the distinction between an ovule and a s.'cd.

Ill most cases the ovule is fertilized bv i>ollen brou-ht

from another flower of the same species (cross-fertilil-,.

tion), because very commonly tl,„ pollen of its own llow.r

IS ready either too .soon or too late to be of use ; that is

the ,^oIlen and the stignui in the same flower do not con,-

monly mature at the same time. Pbinis are

Enhmophilous, when they depen.l upon insects to

carry the iiollen from flower to llower, and

Anemophiloux, when this service is i)erformed bv the wind.

THE FRUIT. Definition.

The fruit is the ripened pistil together with tmv other ],art such as the calyx or reoe],tacle, which may be adherent to It. If there are no such adherent jiarts the fruit is a fnoi fruit, consisting wholly of the ripened ovtiry with the seeds ; otherwise it is -a pxrudocarp or spurious fruit as in Apijle, Strawberry and IJose.

Kinds of Fruit.

A. — Duv Fia;iTs : tho.se wliose periearp remains thin, and becomes dry and hard at maturity. Such fruits are

(1) Dehi.seenf, when the pericarp opens so as to allow the seeds to oscajM.

(2) Indehisceiit, when the pericarp doe.s not so ojien.

Dry Dehiscent Fruits.

(a) Follicle, a fruit of a single carpel, which opens down one ed«e only, as in Marsh-MarigoM and Peonv (Fig. 175).

(b) Lcf/ume, a fruit of a single carpel, which opens down both edges (dorsal or outer and ventral or inner sutures), as in Pea and Bean (Fig. ITCj.

The Lament is a special form of legume, Ir is

made up of a number of ono-.seeded joints which

separate from each other when ripe ; each joint, as

a rule, remaining closed (Fig. 177).

(c) SiUqiie, a .syncarpous fruit of two carpels divided

by a thin partition, from which the carjiels fall away

when rir)e, leaving the placentas and seeds around the

edge of the partition (Fig. 178).

^ (d) Silicle, a fruit of the same construction as the silique, a ul differing only in shape; the silique being considerably longer than broad, as in Stock (Fig. 17,S), and the silicle being nearly or quite as broad as long, as in Shepherd's Pur.se (Figs. 170, 180),

(e) P//,x/,v. a fruit which opens by .a horizontal seam, so that the toji comes off like a lid, as in Purslane (Fie 181). *"

(f) Capsule, a syncarpous fruit whicli normally splits at maturity, either wholly or partially, into a.s" many pieces as there are carpels.

FLORAL DIAGRAMS.

By a floral diagram is meant the plan of a flower as exhibited in a cross-section. It siioidd show t he numlu'i- and relative Iiositiou of all the floral organs. The position of sepals, petals, and stamens is commonly easy to iix, but tlie true liosition of tlie carpels presents a little more diHiculty. Tiie ovary nnist be cut across with a sharp knife while some other organ (say the calyx) is still in position, and tlie rehitive situation of the carpels must then be carofiiliy observed. The n'stivation of calyx and corolla may also lie shown to advantage in a floral diagram.

A number of examples of these diagrams are given in the margin, and the pupil sliould make the construction of such diagrams a regular jiart of his work.

The pupil should make a constant practice of splifthuj iiowers tlirouKh thocoiitra (best done fioui below ujjwards with a very .sbai'p loiife), and drawing the section thus presented. Such a drawing is exceedingly useful in coniioction with the floral diagram, as still further exhibiting tlio rolatiou of the parts to each other.

Fig. 226 is a good example. Hero the relations of tlio parts can bo seen at a glance.

COMPOSITE FLOWERS.

A full description of a Composite flower involves some par- ticulars of a special kind ; for convenience, tlieruforo, the various terms in use are collected togotlior here.

The assemblage of florets (few or many) on a common receptacle.

Parts of the Head.

Fr.ouETs: tlie small single flowers wliicli in tlio aggregate make up the head. Tliese are

(a) Llgulate, when the corolla is prolonged on one side into a flat strap-sliaped piece (Fig. 227).

(I)) Tidmlar, wlien the corolla is not tlius prolonged, but is regularly developed all rou (Fig. 22,S). Receptacli: ; the place upon which the florets stand.

Iwoi.ucuK : the circle or circles of bracts which surround the lioad.

Kinds of Head.

Lich;mfi.oual: when all the florets of tlie head are ligulate, as in Dandelion (Fig. 229).

TuHUMFLOUAL : when all tlie florets are not ligulate ; and sucli heads are

(a) Discoid, if all the florets are tultular as in Thistle.

(b) Radiate, if the florets round the margin of the head (ray-flards) are ligulate, while tlie central ones (disk-florets) are tubulai-, .ts in Sunflower (V\-r. 2.')0)

noTAXICAL TERMS.

(c) Roots originate eiidntjpnousli/, tliiit is to say, tliey do not (levclopo from tlio oxtpi-ior or surface of the i.lant- botly, but always l.c-iii ia the ilw'por tissues, and even- , tually break their way throu-li the overlying layers till i they reach the surface.

(J) They do not, as a rule, produce leaves or buds.

(e) They tend, as a rule, to grow downwards into tlie soil, avoiding the light.

(f) The minute structure of the root is less perfect in its development than that of the stem.

The functions of the root are

(a) To fix the plant in its jdace.

(b) To act as an absorbent of the nutritious li.iuids contained in the soil.

(c) In special cases to serve as a storehouse of food for the plant.

B.— Caulomk: including the stem and all its wiuivalents, ; such as branches, runners, tendrils, tliorns, etc., as already described.

In contrast to tlio root, tlu- stem is always preceded by a bud.

A bud is an early stage of tlio development of a stem or branch, and is found on dissection to consist of many rudimentary leaves crowdec' on a short axis. This axis i subseipicntly duveloptis t/iroKi/hoKf its /rn<jfh, forming the iuternodes (Fig. 241), thus differing widely from the root, which grows by additions to its extremity.

Winter-buds are covered with s('aly bracts called btul- ncdks, which separate and fall away soon after thedevel- ojiment of the bud begins in the spring.

-t!uds are

(a) Terminal, when at the ends of stems and branches.

(b) Axillary, when iirodticed in the axils (Fig. 244) of leaves.

(c) Admntitious, when ]>roduced in some irregular manner.

(d) Accessor ji, when jiroduced as extra or additional buds beside the regular axillary bud, so that there are really several buds in the axil.

The functions of the caulomo are

(a) To bear leaves and Howers.

(b) To serve as a medium for the conveyance of the

no'.u'isliing liipiids nbsorljed by tlic root.

GROWTH.

The growth of a phmt consists in the multiplication of its cells and tlie subser,i,ent enlargement of the latter b^ the addi- tion of new matter. The development of the cell frequentlv mvolves, also, a change of form.

Germination.

By this term is meant the commencement of the jnocess of growth from the seed. Under suitable conditions of temperature and moisture the embryo, which is dormant in the dry .seed, wakens into activity and b.-ins to develope. The Vtails of the process vary somewhat according to the structure of the .seed. If the cotvledo-is are thin and leaf-like, as in Maple for example, the radi- cle generally grows throughout its length so as to raise them nbo.: the soil, where they at once expand and become > i,st green leaves of the new plant, a root "Joing . ;,aine time develo])ed from the lower end of

the radicle. But if the cotyledons are thick and ileshy containing much nourishment, then usually a bud called the plumule, which contains the elements of additional bits of stem, will be a prominent feature in the embrvo and m this ca.se the cotyledon or cotyledons not infre- quently remain uiuler ground, as in the pea and the acorn, and so do not perform the office of foliage-leaves but merely supply the newly developing parts with nour- , Lshment. In albuminous .seeds, the endosperm is the I chief source from which the germicating embryo derives ■ its support.

Vitality of Seeds.

There is a considerable difference in regard to the lengtli of tune durmg whicli seeds retain their vitalitv. Some such as those of Elm and Poplar, will germimue onl,' if they have been kej.t fresli and not permitted to dry "P, while others, such as those of Indian Corn and ^\ heat, and in general those containing a copious store of starch, may be kept for a very long time without losing tncir genuiiutting jiower.

(-ILOSSARY Of

THE HERBARIUM.

Tl.o,se who are anxious to raako ,ho ,„ost of their botanical

•senespcnnons for reference. A few hint.s, therefore on

anobjec to collectors to have their s,,r..in,cns exhibit as ! ^nany of their natural characters as possible, so tha ! although dried and pressed, there will be no d ffi.ulty i n

oo,n..n,then.; and to this end neatness and c.^ 'a tlie hrst requisites.

Collecting.

Specimens should be collected when the plants are in flower, an , If possible, on a dry day, as the flowers are then i,

^hole o n, root and all, should be taken up; i too large to be treated in this way, a flower and one 'or two of the leaves (radical as well as cauline, if these be different) may be gathered.

Drjang.

As ^any of your specimens will be collected at a distance om home, a close tin box, which may be slung over he shoulder by a strap, should be provided, in which the plants may be kept fresh, particularly if a few dr . of water be sprinkled upon them. Perhaps a better wa however, is to carry a portfolio of convenient si.e- say lo inches by 10 inches-made of two pieces of stout

I^s^W^orthindeal, andhavingacc^pleofs:^:: ^Mth buckles^ for fastening it together. Between the coversshould be placed sheets of blotting-paper or coar e wrapping-paper, as many as will allow the specimens to be separated by at least five or six sheets. 'Phe advan! tage of the poi.folio is, that the plants may be plLed between the sheets of blotting-papor, and subje ed to pressure by means of the straps as soon as they are gathered. If carried in a box, they should be tnu.s!

.nS Ki''"'^ r''^'''^^'^'^'^''^'-^' ^"^1 the crumpling and doubling of leaves guarded against. The only way

opi.ventmouMingisto place plenty of paper between the pl.ints, and chanye th, paper frequently; the fre- quency depending on the amount of moisture contaimd

n the specmens. From ten days to a fortnight will be

should be placed on a table or floor, covered bv a flat

r

board, and snl.juctL^.l to j.icssu.v by ],lacins,' weights on I the to|. ; twenty bricks or «o will answer very well. !

It is of groat importniico tluit flit- s/i,W of j,aj>rr witliin which fh,' jilaiit is first p/mcd shoulil not bo inicrfcrfd Willi (luriMi; tlio drying process. The directions as to fre.itient changes refer only to tlio sheets not inunediatelv ill contact witli the j.Iant. These, to enstire iho best re- sults, should ho changed once a day for the first few days; less fre,|uently thereafter. Gray recommends ironing witli liot irons in order to remove nioro raiiiiliy the moisture from fleshy leaves, and in any case to warm the driers in the sun before putting them between the ]ilants.

Mounting.

When the specimens are thoroughly dry. the next thing is to mount them, and for this purjiose you will require sheets of strong white jiaper; a good quality of unruled fools- cap or cheii|) drawing pai)er will be .suitable. The most convenient way of attaching the specimen to the jmi.er is to take a sheet of the same size as your pajier, lay the specimen carefully in the centre, wrong side up, and gum it thoroughly witli a very soft brush. Then take tlm paper to which the plant is to be attached, and lay it carefully on the s].ecimen. You can then lift paper "and specimen together, and, by pressing lightly with a soft cloth, ensure complete adhesion. To render ])h,nts with stout stems additionally secure, make a slit with a pen- knife through the j>op(;r immediately underneath the stem, then pass a narrow band of paiier round the stem, and thrust both ends of the hand through the slit. The ends may then be gunnned to the back of the sheet.

Sorting and Ticketing.

Thespeciuuu having been duly mounted, its botanical name shoul 1 bo written neatly in the lower right-hand corner, together with the date of its collection and the locality where found. Of conr.so only one Species should l^ mounted on each sheet ; and when a sufiicient number have been prepared, the Spo'cies of the .same Genus should bo i)laced in a sheet „f larger and coarser paper than that on which the specimens are mounted, and the name of the Genus shoul.l be written outside on the lower corner. Then the (ienora of the same Order should be collected in the same manner, and the name of the Order written outside as before. Th,. Orders may tiien bo arranged in accordance with the classification you may be using, and carefully laid away in a dry place. If a cahinet,'"'with shelves or drawers, can be specially devoted to storing the ijlants. so much tlie better.
