INCREASING ria SizE or Flowers
A horticulturist of the suburbs Of
Versailles, in studying the phiology
of the Vegetable kindom, conceived the
idea that the smallness of certain
plants---the violet, for example---was
owing to an atmospheric pressure too
great for the their delicate organs.
Having fixed this idea in bis mind,
the florris conceived the idea Of putting
his theory into practice. Providing
himself with a small balloon, rendered
sufficiently tight to prevent the escape
Of any gas, he launched it into the air,
having attached to it a silke n cord
twelve Numbered metres long. Instead
Of care, the balloon sustained 4 flower
pot Of Parma violets. This expert
ment has been going on about two
months with the most wonderful re.
suits. in the shape Of violets large as
Bengal roses. It is expected that the
above experiment may be turned to
some account.
