Jack really has only one leg to stand on and about it are| crowded his flowers, closely packed in | the lower part of the spathe, which | is the name of the hood. Jack himself is known to the botanists as a “spa- dix.” The pistillate flowers which | produce the berries are round and green. They look like berries on a stalk, and have stigmas which are purple, with creamy colored centers. The flowers which have the pollen are wee projections. They are almost | white, with four purplish, cup-shaped anthers filled with white pollen. Once in a great while you will find the pollen-bearing flowers set above the pistillate flower under the same hood, but most of the time they are on_separate plants. the leaves are gone, the berries are | & bright red and very glossy.

The Indians would dig up the corms and boil them. It is said they have a peppery taste and are not so bad this way, but to bite off a piece of fresh corm is to have an experience similar to sampling red pepper. (Copyright, 1932.)

As the plant grows, first two, then three leaves appear, each having three large leaflets. The pulpits vary in color Sometimes Jack occupies a lovely, ma- roon-colored pulpit, while right near him his brother stands in a greenish white one. Beetles and small insects are called upon to be the pollen distributors. They crawl in the hoods and crowd past the spadix and the spathes.
