Chance in Tone Of Embassy.

The British embassy at Washing,

viable prestige among diplomatic
homes, having been for many years
he residence of the dean of the dip
tomatic corps in the person of the late
Lord Pauncefote, and the scene of
he brief but brilliant reign of Sir
Michael and Lady Herbert. Since the
coming Of the Bryces, however. a lit
srary atmosphere pervades the big
English house rather than that of it's
'orner social supremacy. This lat
ter distinction may be said to have
crossed the fashionable avenue to
The fireside Of the Austrians. AL
.hough such a small area Of Mother
Earth divides the two embassies they
are as far apart in point of person

PROTECTING
FRUIT TREES
BY Charles Young, Ontario.

Winter protection of the trunk and
lower portion of the top is necessary
for some years. l find the advice to
use a thin veneer of little use. The
veneer, at most, protects only the
trunk and leaves the collar exposed,
and this is the vital part Of the tree.
II not severely scalded the trunk will
get all right again; but, If the collar
of the tree is injured to the same ex-
tent, the tree is killed unless a new
head is formed below the injured por-
ton.
l have tried many different protect
ors,, such as barrel slaves. Eastwood
bark, building paper, etc, but have
found nothing more effective than a
strip of burlap or any old sacking
wound round the trunk and lower por-
ton of the top. This entails a good
deal of work when there are many
trees to go over, and a simpler and

be either lax, intermediate, or dense,
with regard to ear shape, and each of
these types is represented by beard

them resemble the parent varieties,
while the remaining four are distinct.
The question Of moment to the practi.
cal breeder is whether these new
forms can be fixed. Those with the in.
termediate shape OF a may be at

dense and the bearded lax
types for further examination. The

Washinqton's Vegetable Treasure.

One of the vegetable treasures of
the National Botanic garden at Wash.
ington is a vine that is ancestor to
millions of its kind in the United
States. 1t is the ampelopsis veitchii,
an English immigrant, brought to this
country in 1854 by William r. Smith,
superintendent of the garden. Thus,
this man is foster father to a vine that
climbs and clasps countless walls
the most general city vine in the
United States.
At the time of its importation by
Mr.: Smith, a Bostonian also brought
over some seeds or cuttings of the
vine. and SO many descendants of the
Boston vine are f1ourishing that the
plant is sometimes called Boston ivy

addition of any fertilizer, but II It Is
a soil that becomes compact, it is ad-
visable to add a little coarse sand to
make it more porous.
Bulbs should be planted not later
than the middle of October, as they
will require six weeks to two months
TO fill the pot with roots. Hyacinths
succeed best in five-inch pots, or If
pans are used several bulbs may be
planted in n pan. First put several
pieces Of broken pot or charcoal in
the bottom of the pot for drainage,
fill the pot with soil and shake it
down by striking the bottom of the pot
against something. Avoid pressing
down the soil before planting, as in
that way the roots will force the bulb
out of the pot when they start TO grow.
Have the upper side of the bulb OF a
level with the surface Of the soil and
within half an inch of the top of the
pot.
One watering is sufficient where

The Chances of Combination.

he egg cells and pollen grains. carry
either the lax or the dense character,
and not, as perchance the outer form
Of the plant would suggest, a blend Of
the two. I'm the case of wheat the
egg cells are fortified with the plants
own pollen.) We can show the chances
Of combination of pollen grain and egg
cell systematically as follows, pre-
Stunning that an approximately equal
number of each carry either the lax or
dense character:
There are only four possible com
binations, lax and lax, lax and dense,
dense and lax and dense and dense.
Lax meeting dense, or vic versa, we
know from the original cross, gives
intermediate, so that this generation
will consist of, on an average, n lax
individual to two with intermediate
ears to one with dense ears. Further,
owing to the fact that the individuals
produced from the union of lax-carry-
ing and also from the union of dense
carrying reproductive cells, have not
the alternative characters present in
their constitutions, they breed true to
laxness or denseness. The interme-
diate formed by the union Of the alter
native lax and dense characters can
no be fixed. We recognize, then, that
the intermediate shape is in this case
a distinguishing feature of those indi-
viduals carrying the two alternative
characters in their reproductive cells.
The mere fact that this can be recog-
nized at so early a stage is one which
the sequel will show to be of great
value to the practical breeder.
We are now in a position to consider
the inheritance of the bearded and
beardless condition, neglecting now
the question of whether individuals
are lax or dense or intermediate in
ear shape. In the first cross the ears
bore no more beard than the beardless
parent. The b%eardless condition is
thus described as dominant" the
bearded as "recessive." The imme-
date descendants of this hybrid were
either %beardless or bearded individ-
uals in the proportion of three of the
former to one of the latter. No half
