Ways Some Plants Have.

A study of botany reveals that there
are expert bomb choppers" as well as
trained artillerists in the plant world.
In the flying fruits of the Califor-
mia pine is presented a curious antici-
patton of bomb dropping from aero
planes.
The ecballium or squirting cucum-
Der" is one of the best known of plant
artillerists. When its seed pod ripens
this bends over. breaks away from
the stem and fires" its juice and seeds
to a distance of from three to six feet.
The common garden balsam is an
other plant having warlike methods.
1t scatters' its seeds by a veritable ex-
plosion of its pod, which bursts much
like a shrapnel shell. and hurls its con-
tents In all directions.
In the fruits of many thistles a sim
liar plan is to be observed. The fluffy
parachutes float about in the air for
a considerable time and may travel a
considerable distance. The moment
one Of these strikes against an obsta-
Gle or is hung up in any position the
fruit at once is severed from its sup
porting parachute and naturally falls
to the earth.
