WHY LEAVES TURN.
A True and Scientific Explanation Given
by an Eminent isOtanist.

True and Scientific Explanation Given
by an Eminent sOtanist.
probably not one person in thou
said knows why leaves change their
color in the fall remarked an emf
nent bOtanist the other day. The
common and Old-fashiOned idea is.
that all this red and golden glory we
see is caused by frOsts. A true and
scientific explanation of the causes Of
the cOlOring of leaves would necessi-
tate long and intricate discussion.
Stated briefly and in proper language,
those causes are these: The green
matter in the tissue OF leaf is COM
posed Of two colOrs, red and blue.
When the sap ceases to flow in the
fall. and the natural growth of the tree
ceases, oxidation of the tissue takes
place. Under certain conditions, the
green of the leaf changes to red; under
different conditions, it takes on a yell
low or brown tint. This difference in
color is due to the difference in COM
binatiOn of the original constituents of
the green tissue. and to the varying
conditions Of climate. exposure and
soil. A dry, cold climate produces
more brilliant foliage than one that is
damp and warm. This is the reason
that our American au.umns are so
much more gorgeous than those of En-
gland. There are several things about
leaves that even science can not ex-
plain. For instance, why one of two
trees growing side by side. of the same
age and having the same exposure,
should take on brilliant red in the
fall and the other should turn yellow;
or, why one branch of tree should
be highly-colOred and the rest OF the
tree have only a yellow tint. are ques-
tions that are as impossible TO answer
As why one member OF family should
be perfectly healthy and another sickly.
