WHY DO PLANTS
HAVE THORNS ?
From an Article by Ferdinand
Faideau, in La Science Illustree,
Parls--condensed and Translated
For Public Opinion.

EUl EuullN OllhtOht
The influence of the environment is
very great in the formation Of thorns,
so great, in fact, that we frequently
find that q plant In one place has
thons and few miles away Is devoid
Of them. Observation and experiment
are in agreement in showing that three
causes are in operation here, namely,
impoverished soil, dryness of the at
mosphere. and intensity Of light, each
o. which provokes or accentuates the
condition under discussion. In this
connection 1t is interesting to state
that cultivation diminishes the num-
her Of spines and in many instances
makes them disappear after several
generations,
NJ. Lhotelier has shown by a long
series Of experiments that thorny
plants when submitted to the action
of humidity tend to lose their spines,
the reduction taking place in two
ways. In the case of spines which
are produced by modified leaves or
modified STEMS there is tendency to
revert to the primitive type, while IN
thoRe which originate in stipules-an
organ unnecessary to the life of the
plant--the spine diminishes and in
many cases completely disappears, The
partial deprivation of light also pro-
duces a more or, less complete suppress
sion OF the thorns, as proved by many
authenticated instances.
1t thus appears that thorns are the
result of insufficient nutrition, but this
answer by no means eXhausts the sub
ject, for the question arises, what is
the use Of the thorns, and how do
they benefit the plant? Grindon
claimed that the thorns have no use
since they are found in a large num-
Der Of families different both as to-
form and as to needs, but there can
be but little doubt that the thorn
is a means Of protection to the plant
and that its purpose is to inspire a

covered that the building is really
about to fall into dust. The rapidly
with which the insects work may be
judged when 1t is stated that a lawyer
Of Bulawayo found after an absence OF
week that the insects had made oc.
cupancy Of his house impossible. Eight
days only had suffice for these de-
stroyers to raise in the chimney nest

of wine from Europe. the corks of
which had been entirely consumed by
ants, leaving the bottles to waste their
contents on the floor Of the storeroom.
One freqhently comes across these
ants nests, little hills erected at short
distances from eHch other around a
hill of earth FIFTEEN feet IN height. at
the top Of which is a gaping opening,
the entrance to the nests. .'The nest
itself is composed Of galleries followed
irregularly, all endingfhh larger gal
lery, (which may be Considered the
principaraysnue of th9city. This ave-
nue. leads to the deepest part of, the
nest, where we may lind the residence
Of the queen. When sovereignty has
been placed on the head Of queen,
the workmen tear her wings Off and
place her in cell proportioned to her
size, with an adjoining cell for her
mate.
As in our own climate, each one Of
these nests forms a small republic, con-
tanning queen royal guards, work
ers and other useful members of So
ciety. As thousands Of eggs are laid
each day in these nests. it is not diff
cult to understand the ever-increas-
ing number Of ants that inhabit them.
These small but fearful enemies Of
miles which live in the same neigh
borhood, and two ant nests never live

Inhabited by individuals closely reIat-

Of the white ants, however, are the

cause OF their color, which Is anala-

gous to that of the. inhabitants of
Matabeland. The black ants are much
larger than the white, and legion of
Matabeles is sufficient to throw an
entire city of white ants into a state
Of absolute panic. Much more Wig
orous than the latter, armed with for
midnble mandibles, the invading black
ants throw themselves on the poor
frightened creatures Of the white city,
selling as many as thirteen Mt a time,
and carrying them quickly to their
own hill. In this case the Matabele
is not inspired by any bloodthirsty
desire, for it does its captive no harm,
being content to keep 1t in condition.

SPRAYING.

One of the important points Of fruit
growing to-day is spraying And the
man who says he will not bother with
spraying had just about as well drop
the question Of ever planting an or
chard. 1t is now a well decided fact
that it pays well to spray the or
chard. The diseases and insects, which
do so much damage to our fruit trees,
are here, and we must and it is our
duty to fight them. In a community
where these drawbacks exist the man
who neglects spraying is the one who
is going TO get left in the end, AS
more trees are planted throughout the
country, the diseases become more
and more numerous, and something
must be done to check them, The man
who wants fruit cannot afford to neg
lect to do what he can, and every one
who plants trees wants fruit. The
horticuluralist who keeps his eyes
open and works for his interest is the
one who will share the greatest profit
as the result of his labors. -Epitom-

ROSE CUTTINGS.

Rose cuttings can be rooted at any
time when the wood is In proper con-
dition. Florists generally use one eye
cuttings. The wood is in condition
when the flower buds appears on the
shoot The joints are cut about one
quarter Of an inch above the eye. and
the stem on each cutting left about
one inch and a half long The leaf is
shortened somewhat and the cutting
put in sand upon sharp bottom heat
until the roots appear, when it is at
once potted off in thumb pots. An
other way is to make cuttings with
three or four eyes just after the wood
is ripened enough TO show the devel-
opment Of the buds at the axil of the
leaf. Such cuttings can be made any
time from October to January and
placed in cold frames, planting in
same way as cabbage or caulihower
plants that are wintered over, and
subjecting them to the same winter
treatment Of airing, yet keeping them
as free from severe freezing as can
be done during the winter. Rose cut
tings placed in such frames about the
end Of October will be rooted and
fit to pot in March. People not hav-
ing the convenience OF frames may DO
it equally well,-Frank Sweet, in The
Epitomist.

HOW TO HAVE LARGE PUMPKINS

HOW TO HAVE LARGE PUMPKINS
If you desire to utilize the entire
strength Of pumpkin vine In the pro-
duction Of only one or two fruits, then
thinning out will be necessary. Wait
until there are three or five pumpkins
on the vine, then thin out, leaving the
most promising. To check the growth
of the vine and concentrate its
strength, pinch Off the end Of the
main vine -four to six feet beyond the
pumpkin. Side shoots may be treated
the same, only they need not be per-
mitted to grow any considerable length
unless they are to produce fruit, AS
great size is your only object, it will
be best to allow only one pumpkin
on a vine, and only one plant to a
hill, and after the fruit is set and as
large as a mans head, mulch the hill
with coarse manure or old hay and
give water in liberal quantities In dry
weather,-S. r. Cook.

FRENCH METHOD OF DRAINAGE

FRENCH METHOD OF DRAINAGE.
How to make a durable and cheap
drain for the garden or orchard is an
important matter with those who do
not desire open bitches. The French
have a method which may be valuable
to some. A trench Is dug and the bot
tom filed with cement mortar. On
this is placed a rubber tube covered
with canvas and inflated. The trench
is then filled with cement. AS soon
as the cement sets air is let out and
the rubber tube, which is then re-
moved and used in another location
or section. By this method it is esti-
mated that siX-ineh pipes can be made
at cost of not over eight cents per
foot.
