How Plants Can Climb and
How They Hoist From Ground

ENEkYBODN has admired the climb

tendrils over decayed trees in the
woods or that can he trained TO climb

are the only things that nature has
produced that possess the unique abil-

Science has only recently succeeded
in analyzing the peculiar properties
that belong 20 the tenurlls 10y which
climbing plants f9ist themselves from
the ground. These vegetable claws or
hands are gifted with "a formation and
a curious chemical construction that
curls the tendrils unerringly around the
smallest object that can afford support
10 the climbing plant.
The secret Of the curling part of
climbins plants lies in the structure OF
the cells in thc thin green coils. These
are So built that pre- sure makes the
cells or the side of the JendTil that is
compressed give up their water TO the
cells on the other side. That MAX
the cells on the side lot touching any

Moreover according 10 the surround
ings OF each climbing plant, nature
had taken a different part of the vine
ages back before vines had learned
how 10 climb and from this part nature
erea ted the gripping claws of the
climbing plants
From three widely separate parts Of
the plants come The tendrils of the diff
terent families OF vines. For instance,
in vanilla plant il was from the roots
the teudrils by which the vanilla climbs
high trees. This statement becomes
less remarkable when one remem beers
that the vanilla plant is an orchid. 1t
is from its aerial roots that the plant
has constructed tendrils that attach il
safely during great tempest and that
ena BILE il 10 climb.
The ordinary grape vine climbs with
a tendril that takes the place of
sterile bunch of grapes which nature
has changed by marvellous natural
chemistry from an ordinary cluster of
grapes into means of lifting the
whole vine into the air The two other
methods are when nature changes
tiny limb ar leaf into a tendril that
possesses the ability TO dlsplace the
water from one side 10 the other. and
50 bring about a tendril that will curl
around under pressure.
The ciearest eNplana ton of how a
tendril curis itself Is perhaps the fol-
lowing simple experiment. Take two
RUBBER BANDS the same length and
stretch one of them slightly and paste
them against one another. When they
are now placed on a table the band

smaller cells which have given up their
water. when pressed against an object
