The amount of carbonic acid gas given
off by few plants is 80 small that one
hundred plants ia a room would not give
as much as one man during night, and
they make many volumes OF oxygen dur
ing the day more than sufficient to com
pensate for their presence. Rooms In
which plants are kept have, moreover, a
fresh odor about them, owing to the TACT
that they absorb nitrogen, and it is this
in part that makes room stutfy, because
nitrogen occurs in most of the secretions
emanating from man or animals.
