Dear Aunt Dorothy: I am great reader
of The Star and enjoy it very much. I
think 1t is very nice to save stamps and I
have got a stamp book, too Out in
the country there are lots Of pretty
spring flowers The other night as
I was walking home I picked some little
white and purple flowers. I got some little
blood root hepatica and another little white
flower. 1t was on beautiful warm, clear
day as I was walking along nice sandy
road, near the river, near HILL that I
found them. This Is what pleasure you
may have in the country. If this sweet
weather goes on we will very soon have
spring. From Your Friend.
NATALIE D.
Dear Aunt Dorothy: have often wished
to visit the great city Of New York. which
l did not long ago. I saw many interesting
places while I was there and when the time
came for me to come home I did not want
to come I first went on the elevated rail-
way, which we have not in Washington,
but hope we will have some day. Then to
the aquarium, which is like our fish COM
mission. where I saw very large fish of all
kinds Another place I was very anxious
to see was the Brooklyn bridge, which I
have heard so much about. I walked across
it and when I got half way over I had to
rest because the bridge is so very long.
If 1t had not been rainy day I could have
seen the Statue of Liberty. I also went
to see the Eden Musee, where everything Is
made Of wax. I hope some day will go to
New York again and see more interesting
things.

Recently I described q mode of prepar-
ing small garden so that the development
OF the embryo plant underground might be
watched. Some of our young readers may
have patterned such garden, but whether
they have or not, there are several fea-
lures In the development of growth from a
seed that will be interesting to tell about.
To look at some seeds it would hardly seem
that they contained life but they do. They
are the eggs of plant life and are Matched
or developed by moisture and a certain de-
gree of warmth. They would not sprout
at all If kept dry or too cold. But plant
the seeds in the moist earth of the garden
or field in the late spring or summer, and
they quickly give evidence of life. 1t is
only few days before they peep up
through the light covering of soil. usually
small looped stem or two little green
leaves being the first thing seen.
Different Seeds.
After a seed has been soaked in water
over night, If it is cut in half around the
edge the principal parts of the young plant
may be seen. In splitting the bean thin
white skin is found to cover the outside
Inside are two large meaty halves and at
tached to one is the little plantlet with its
leaves folded up small. The two halves are
CalleQ COtyleuOns ana are the first leaves of
the plant. When the seed has been planted
the cotyledons have come up and opened
the small leaves we see in the seed begin
to grow in size.
The pumpkin seed is quite different from
the bean. In splitting it we find it covered
with thick SHE'LL the cotyledons much
thinner, and between them and the shell
papery covering. The plantlet is at the
pointed end and is much smaller than in
the bean. The sunf1ower seed is similar to
that of the pumpkin. the meat occupying
much the same position and being covered
with a papery skin. The shape is different,
however, being more slender and pointed.
The outside, too, usually has black and
white stripes or may be black all over
The pea Is like the bean except that It Is
perfectly round. The corn seed is different
from any of the others mentioned 1t is
covered by a thin skin like layer and the
inside is almost entirely taken up by endos-
perm, or food upon which the young plant
may feed in its early growth. There Is
but one cotyledon and it together with the
plantlet Is very small. The plantlet and
cotyledon are found on the side of the ker-
mel toward the small end where there is a
sort of scar. The wheat is similar to the
corn seed. but Is much smaller and differ
ent in shape. 10 On
How to Plant.
Most of the seeds do not require to be
planted very deep in the garden. just thin
covering Of about an inch of dirt is suffl-

TRIXIE'S KITTEN.

lRi<AlE . MIL
Molly was careless little GIRL who tried
hard to be good. and Trixie was her cat
who had lost her kitten and was conse-
quently very lonely sometimes.
One day Uncle Ned gave Molly a new
doll She wore a gray hat, gray dress and
suede shoes. Molly took her out In the
garden to play with and named her Anne
AS she was settling herself a gay voice
shouted, "Hullo. Mollyr' and her chum
Nan came over the fence.
Mamma says that we can ride the
ponies to the village If we are careful"
she cried. and poor Anne was soon left
alone in the garden.
When Molly came home that evening Anne
was nowhere to be found and she was soon
almost forgotten. A week after that Molly
and Nan went into the barn and there
they found Anne. She was all broken and
not let the children take her, for she
thought that she had found her kitten at
last. MARY DARRAH Gage 12)
HOW THE CHILDREN SAVED THE
LITTLE SPARROW.
"Bess. Bess, where are your" cried Ned.
Here l am Ned" she said. Come out on
the lawn and bring Hugh with you," said
Ned again. Soon both Hugh and Bess were
out on the lawn. where Ned was waiting
meadow to the big oak. There" said
Ned pointing to the ground, that is what
! wanted to show you On the ground
lay a little sparrow which had fallen from
the nest and was struggling piteously. He
has broken his wing" exclaimed Ned Ned
carefully took the little sufferer up and to-
gether the children took him into the
house. Here they bound up the sparrow's
wound and then put the little sufferer in a
cage which Bess had her canary In. which
had died. The little bird grew so tame
that he would eat out of the children
hands. The spring came and the little spar
row became impatient of his confinement,
so one day the children let him fly away.
The little bird never forgot the children's

Gent. Nearly all have the same way of
getting out of the ground. The bean and
pumpkin sprout by sending down one large
root The stalk is continuation of this
root and its end remains in the seed. Grad
ually the root grows downward and the
stalk begins to push upward. At first the
weight of earth is too much for the stalk
to push the seed through and it gradually
bends under the strain. 1t continues to
grow. however, the looped stem coming up
through the earth, and finally either pulls
the cotyldons out of the hull or raises the
whole seed out Of the ground. Under the
open and If the hull still adheres 1t is thus
thrown off. The watermelon and sunflower
grow in this way. and many plants of the
flower garden. The pea acts differently.
1t sends down the main root or tap root,
but the stem with the young leaves always
pulls away from the seed and leaves the
cotyledons in the ground. The corn and
wheat each send out at the start three or
like another root, but grows upward. It
pushes through the covering and opens
out, and it is seen that it has a number
Of small leaves or blades rolled tightly SO
that they might the better get through to
the sunlight. The first seeds mentioned
during their first development feed upon
food contained in the cotyledons. but the
corn and wheat depend upon the endosperm
for their first sustenance. After they have
grown q short time the hull Is seen to have
shrunk and wrinkled UP, the food having
been drawn out.
Rapid Development.
The accompanying illustrations show the
development of the corn, wheat and sun
flower seed pictured last Saturday. In the
first 1t Is seen that the corn stem, which
was at first but sort Of hooked root be-
ginning to turn upward, has pushed out
into the air and is beginning to unfold it's
leaves. Its roots have grown much longer
and a large number of branch roots have
been put out. The wheat stem has grown
much longer. and it's roots also. and two
new roots have put forth. The sunfiower
seed was injured in handling and the tap
root was broken. but you can see that 1t
has developed large number Of branches
that have taken up the work Of the main
root. The stem has pushed upward and the
cotyledons have been pulled out Of the hull.
In the second picture the corn has increas-
ed its root growth and a new leaf unfolded.
The wheat has also increased it's root area
slightly and it's single leaf Is much longer.
A close view would show new blade Just
beginning to unroll. The sunfower has
lifted its cotyledons completely above the
surface and If they were in a stronger light
would be opened wide.
The small picture shows pumpkin seed
ling just after it lifted it's head through
the soil The shell still adheres, but fell
of just after the photograph was made.
