1t is popular error To suppose that ivy
growing on the walls of house makes it
damp. The attachment of ivy to walls, 50
far from injuring them and causing damp
ness, is an advantage, If the walls are dry
when planted, ivy viii keep them so. If
damp, as the plant Overspreads their surface
the dampness win disappear, Where
dampness prevails ivy sucks out the moist
ure, and its thick foliage will prevent the
access of rain to the structure; and thus it
is pot only remover but preventive, of
dampness. The only danger attending the
planting of ivy on buildings is where 6s-
sures occur in the walls, in which case the
shoots and roots win enter, and, if left un-
disturbed, their growth will soon begin to
tell upon the building, aud will, by increase
of growth, push against the side of the
opening, thereby enlarging it, and eventu-
ally so weaken the wall as to cause it to
fall. When the wall is sound there is no
such danger, for the plant does not make
assures, although quick to discover them.
