SAID TO FEED ON INSECTS
Pitcher Plant Known TO Scientists as
One Of the Wonders OF the veGe-
table Kingdom.

The pitcher plant is one OF the
freaks Of plant life. II grows In
swampy lands and is well known In
Canada The flowers, touched with
beautiful. delicate tints. are priced
for decorative purposes. But the won-
der of the pitcher plant is It's leaves
They are green, water-holding pitch
ers. beautifully veined with red and
purple, with considerable variation In
form. During rainfalls they are filled
with water. This largely evaporates.
leaving the receptacle half full. Ex-
ternally these cups are smooth. while
internally they are lined with fine bris-
ties pointing downward. There is also
n sticky. sugary sort OF semi-fluid sub
stance TO be found around the inner
margin OF the bowl or pitcher. This
arrangement not only attracts a large
number Of tiny insects. but they are
so eager 20 feed on the sugnry sub
stance that not a few tumble into the
water below and die there. They can
not fly out for the lines Of flight would
be practically vertical. while hun
dreds of little bristles confronting
them prevent escape over the surface
by wrlking out. Many believe that
the plant. through its leaves. absorbs
the digestive parts OF these Insects,
and that they thus contribute TO Its
nutrition; IN other words that the
pitcher plant 20 this extent is one OF
the carnivores of the vegetable king
dom.
