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

t<>  chspol  uncomfortable  f..ars  of  false  steps.  If.  inst.a,!  of  desponding,  you  skirt  along  the  brow  of  the  bill. 
to  the  westward  you  come  upon  open  n.eadows,  with  h,.re  and  there  a  low  copse  or  tld.ket ;  while  to  the 
eastward  are  nolde  woods  of  n.aple  and  l.ee.b,  succeed..!  farther  on  by  pines,  as  the  charactei  of  the  soil 
changes.  Jo  tlio  southward  are  cultivated  fields  and  ;arU,.t  gard..ns,  and  in  the  distance  the  glintin-  of 
the  sun  on  a  coujile  of  cluirch  sjiires  marks  the  direction  of  tli,.  neighboring  town. 

Ten  o'clock  is  the  hour  of  laeeting,  and  on  this  occasion  an  exemplary  )mnctualit  v  is  (observed  by  every- 
body. As  It  IS  intended  to  nuike  a  day  of  it,  lunch  baskets  Imve  not  be..u  forgotten.  These  are  left  for  safe- 
keeping at  a  cottage  close  by.  an.l  then,  after  a  brief  rest  in  tlie  shade  of  a  friendlv  b,.e,d,,  the  partv  is 
•  livi.led,  for  the  day's  wo.k,  into  small  groups,  and  an  area  roughly  marked  out  for  ea,l,.  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

Caupels:    the   j.ieces,   either   distinct  or  combined  together 
which  make  np  tlie  M-liole  pistil.     Tlie  pistil  is 

(a)  ^uni,h,  if  it  consists  of  one  carpel  only,  as  in  Pea 

{h)  Compound,  if  it  consists  of  two  or  more  carpels

OVAUV:    the   lower   swollen    part,    containing   the   ovule   oi 
ovules  whicli  develope  into  seeds  (Fiu;.  KiO).     The  ovirx-

several-celled  (Fig.   I.JO).     In  the  latter  case  the  separat-

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

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.

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.

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. 

The  Dehiscence  of  the  Cajisule  is

THE  SEED. 
Definition. 

The  seed  is  the  mature  ovule,  and   is  specially  chaiacterized 
by  the  presence  of  tlie  embryo  or  young  plantlet. 

Parts. 

lNTE(;rMi;NT  :   formed  by  the  develojinient  of  the  coats  of  the 
ovule,  and  consisting  of  an  outer  and  an  inner  layer. 

(a)  Testa,  the  outer  laj-er  (Fig.  20(1). 

(b)  Tegmen,  the  inner  layer  (Fig.  SOC). 
In  connection  with  the  integument  note 

(1)  77(6  Funiculus,  already  defined  when  describing 
the  ovule. 

(2)  The    Ililum,   or  scar  where  the  funiculus  was 
attached. 

(3)  The   Micropyle,   a  minute  opening  through  the 
integument. 

Also  the  following  special  ai)pendages  : 
(1)  Arit,  an  outgrowth  of  the  funiculus  or  placenta, 
forming  a  more  or  less  fleshy  covering  outside  the  true 
integument  of  certain  seeds,  as  in  the  Climbing  Bitter- 
sweet and  the  White  Water  Lily  (Fig.  201).

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.

LONGITUDINAL   SECTIONS. 

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. 

Inflorescence. 

Under  tliis  heading  doscrilje  the  arrangement  of  the  lieads, 
using  the  terms  already  explained-solitary,  cymose, 
racemose,  corymbose,  spiked,  etc. 

Head. 

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.

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

anobjec  to  collectors  to  have  their  s,,r..in,cns  exhibit  as  !

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

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.
