HEAR PLANTS GROW.

Two Germans have discovered
method by which they can hear plants
grow In the apparatus the growing
plant is connected with disk, having
in its center an indicator which moves
visfbly and regularly, and this on a
scale fifty times magnifed denotes the
progress and growth. Both disk and
and indicator are metal, and when
brought in contact with an electric
hammer, the electric current being in
ferrupted at each of the divided in
terstices of the disk. the growth of the
plant is as perceptible 20 the ear as
to the eye.
