ing insects that the fructifyinE pollen
may be carried from plant to plant, cross
ing individual with individual and one
variety with another.
There is a little fable. popular among
botaniStS, which illustrates the point very
neatly. Two seeds OF the same plant
We're separated in their youth, one being
dropped a mountain side from the
beak of bird and the other being car
ried into the heart OF swamp by the
current of d stream. Both brought forth
similar plants, but in the course of many
generations the mountain plant became
strong and hardy, while the swamp plant
became soft and watery. The time came
when the swamp was dried up and
changed to meadowlaud. The swamp
plant was not fitted for this sudden
change of condition. and would speedily
have become extinct had not n bee
brought pollen fronA- the mountain side
and crossed the weak plant with the
strong. Thus the meadow plant was the
child of the mountain and the swamp,
but was different from them both-a new
variety.
Interesting the botanical theory is
it did not appeal at first to the suagr
planters who were raising crops from
budding just they had been raised for
many centuries. Among the planters,
however, there notable excep-
ton. L. +. Atkins of Boston, the owner
of one of the most important plantations
in Cuba. who interested sufficiently
to give to the botanical department of
Harvard 81, 900 for a scholarship to be de-
voted to this particular study. This gift
resulted in q series of Investigations in
the Island of Java, where it was found
that by crossing seed sugarcane was
produced which contained consid era bly
more sugar than that ordinarily Cultiyat-
ed. Following up the work which had
been made possible by Mr.. Atkins gener-
osity, Oakes Ames, the assistant director
Of the Harvard botanical garden sent
the head gardener of his own private es-
tate to Cuba to see if by artificial pollena-
ton he could not secure a supply of fruit
full sugarcane seed. no natural seed was
to be obtained in the whole island After
somewhat extended experiments, good
seed was obtained as was proved by mi
croscopic examination. Some of 1t was
planted in Cuba and some of it in the
botanical garden in Cambridge. where
Mr.. Ames makes special effort to pro-
duce successful hybrids of orchids and
other interesting plants. In Cuba the
planters reported, the seed came up as
grass" 1t ough' to have, and was
rooted up and thrown away. But the
fecundity of this seed is already demon
strated, and it only remains to be seen

Botanists Say That Danger Threatens the Sugar Cane

Cambridge, Mass. May 4. 19O1.-If
there should be no more sugar cane in
the world, beets might be cultivated to
taoke it's place entirely, but if there were
no longer any potatoes, the domestic
economy of thousands of humble homes
would be seriously deranged and the de-
privation would be considerable even on
the most luxurious table. That the sugar
cane and the potato are in danger of be-
coming degenerate and finally extinct has
for some time been recognized in botan-
ical laboratories all over the world. In
this country the botanical department of
Harvard University has gone into the
matter with good deal of thoroughness,
and experiments have been undertaken
to perpetuate these valuable species.

extinct. Plants fourished and died
the carboniferous period, for instance,
have been preserved for thousands of
years potential agencies for the COM
fort and convenience of mankind. The
giant ferns and other forms of plant life
which are now found in the form of coal
had served their purpose, and in the ac-
ton of natural laws it was fitting that
they should become extinct. But the de-
cadence of the sugar cane and the potato
is not natural. but rather results from
the circumstances of their cultivation.
The danger lies in the fact that both
have been propaEated for so many gen
e-ations from buds--the sugar cane from
the joints OF the stalk, and the potato
from the eyes of she tuber-that they
nave almost lost tn" power OF producing
fruitful seeds. For century or more,
during which reproduction from buds can
be successfully continued, the fact that
the seeds themselves become sterile or
dwindle away and disappear, does not
seem particularly important. Finally,
however there comes a time, like the
present. when whole species shows signs
of the deterioration which precedes eX-
tinction: and it is then only by crossing
one plant with another plant, or one va
riety with another variety. that the life
of the species can be renewed. But IL
the plant has lost it's seed-producing fac
ulty, such crossing is evidently impossi-
BILE, and the degeneration must continue
to it's logical result.
Sugar cane is, of course, one of the
most valuable and important of agricul-
tural products. According to botanical
history it was first known in India,
whence it was brought by the Nenetians
to Europe during the twelfth century and
cultivated to some extent In the Islands
Of the Medit erranean. Later, II was in
troduced into Spain and finally into Amer
lea, where it became firmly established
during the sixteenth century. Botari-
cally known as ''Saccharum officinari-
um," il is a sort of strong, cane-stemmed
large feathery plume of flowers. 1t is at
present grown in all warm countries.
and the plants for fifty or 100 plant
generations have been started from the
buds, which spring from the Joints Of
the cane a section of the stalk con-
tanning one of these generative Joints Is
planted and a new stock or group of
stalks springs up, the plantation being
thus maintained by portion of it's prod
ucts Meanwhile, the plants mature,
they put forth blossoms, which, though
beautiful as they ever were, perhaps, are
meaningless and unfruitful.
When 1t was discovered by the botan-
lists that the sugar cane was losing its
& power to produce fruitful seeds, 1t was
realized that such loss meant inbreed-
ing. it would be called in the case

of animals. and that. unless some arti-
fetal means of restoration could be en-
ployed, the species would eventually
run out The highest animals are so
classified because they are the best
equipped for the perpetuation of their
species. and the intellect of man places
him above other animals because it
equips him to maintain the life of the
under all sorts of unfavorable cir
cumstances. AS the breed of man is
maintained and improved by the constant
crossing of individuals, adding intellectual
strength to physical strength and courage
to gentleness, so in the plant life a SINH
lar crossing is essential to the mainten-
ance of species. Plants are classified
high or low they possess to a
greater or less degree the capacity for
perpet uating their kind. The beauty of
the flower, it's bright color and sweet
