WATERING Plants Drop by Drop.

Lucien Daniel, a French h0tanist. has
made some experiments with cabbages,
chicory, lettuce. etc, which prove that
they thrive far better by system of
continuous watering than by drcnch-
inc the soil thoroughly every other day.
The new method, which is simplicity
itself. depends upon the law of capil-
larry attraction. As presented to the
Academy OF Sciences in Paris it con
sists Of placing near each plant a large
mouthed jar containing water in which
IL dipped one end of strip Of linen
or cotton whose other end lies near the
plant. Mr.. Daniel determined the cN-
act amount of water required by any
given plant for its best development
and proved that in general this Cnin-
terruptcd supply Of water, drop by
drop, gave infinitely better results than
the usual method Of Intermittent
