TWO PEA ROOTS SHOWING TUBERCLES.
duced By micro organisms closely re-
lated to the bacteria. They make their
entrance from the soil through the ten
der cell walls of the younger portions Of
the roots and induce cell growth in
the region of the invasion that results
in tubercle.
In some unknown way the tubercle
germs are able to lay hold of and adapt
the free nitrogen for the use Of the
plant that is bearing the gals. To q
certain extent the number and size Of
the gals may be taken as an index OF
the success of the plant.
There is a marked difference between
the gals upon the roots Of leguminous
plants; for example, those of the pea
are quite unlike those Of the bean.
This is brought out in the cuts, made
from sun prints Of the roots and theil
gals. From the great difference in size,
shape and distribution, one might easily
think that the gals were caused by dis
| tinct kinds of germs, but there is NJ
marked distinction in the micro organ
isms when studied with the microscope
| It is true that germ that has grown
upon certain crop plant is more a
home upon that kind Of host. In othel
words, soil extract from an old pea felt
will produce gals upon the pea roots il
new land better than upon clover o
any other crop.
The foregoing illustrated talk upo1
root tubercles, originally given in Th
Rural New Yorker by Professor B. D
Halsted, leads that gentleman to fur
ther word upon soil incubation, as fol
lows:
The study Of the tubercle germs ha
gone so far that now they are isolate
and sold in the market under the trad
name of "Nitragin. This is ''start
er" in land when the germs are no
present Very good results have com
from the use of this germ fertilizer. J

difference of tons Of yield in certai
crops, as shown by experiment at th

Differences In the Calls Upon Pea
md Wax Bean Roots.
The whole subject of root tubercles is
q comparatively new one, and there IS
much to be found out about it. 1t, how
ever, seems settled that a close relation
ship exists between the taking up OF
the free nitrogen by plants and the
presence of gals upon their roots. The
majority Of plants do not have such
root tubercles, as, for example, the ce-
reals, potatoes and the like, while clo-
yers and cloverlike plants are generally
gall bearing where the circumstances
are favorable for their formation. When
soil is rich in combined nitrogen, the
tubercles are less liable to form than
when the soil is poor in such substances.
The host plant needs to be "hungry"
for nitrogen for the full development
