A. Snow of | Magdalene Coliege, Oxford. Experimenting with a variety of pes, he first cuts off the top of the grow- ing plant. This results in two shoots | ot equal length developing and balanc- ing one another. Then the tender leaves of one of these shoots are removed. It promptly dies. But if a single shoot, not a twin, is stripped of its leaves it simply sprouts new ones and goes on_growing. Snow exphl.m this curious phenom- enon by Xofluhnnn a killing force of some kind that is generated by leaves in the process of growing. When it works downward between the leaves and the root of the plant it is harm- less, so that np shoot will be killed by {its own death force.
