How To See q Seed Grow.

MANY little folks wonder how q seed
grows. Some boys and girls have taken
up the seed after planting it in the
ground. and thereby prevented it from
taking root.
We may, however, see the roots
shooting out from the hyacinths and
other bulbs that we grow in glasses in
our windows. And in this way we may
see other seeds sprout and shoot.
A gentleman, to crafty his little
sons, took glass tumbler, round which
he tied q bit of common lace, allow
ing the lace to hang or drop down
in the center of the glass. He then
put enough water in the glass to
cover the lower part of the lace, and
in this hollow he dropped two sweet
peas. The little boys were told to look
at them every day, and they would learn
what was going on under ground with
similar seeds.
Next morning the boys hurried from
the breakfast-room to look at the glass
with the peas in the south window.
They found that while they were fast
asleep the little brown skins had burst,
and tiny white sprout was seen on the
side of each pea. The little sprouts
soon grew long enough to reach through
the holes in the lace, and on the top of
the peas two little green leaves were
seen.
In time the boys saw the white,
thread-like roots reach almost to the
bottom of the glass, while the green
leaves grew large, and gave way to q
stalk or stem.
In this way most seeds may be seen
to grown Y. Observer.
