WHERE DOES WooD CONE FRoM-If we
were to take upa handful ofsoil and examine
under tho it microscope, We should probably
find it to contain q number of fragments Of
wood, small broken pieces of the branches,
or leaves, or other parts of the tree. IL We
could examine it chemically, We should find
yet more strikingly that il was nearly the
same in its competition. Perhaps, then, il
may be said the young plant obtains its
wood from che earth in which it erows-
The following experiment will show whether
this conjecture Is likely to be correct or not
Two hundred pounds Of earth wers dried
in an oven, and Afterwards put into large
sarthern vessel the earth was then moisten.
