Reason for this s found in our simile of piants and human beings. ‘A thirsty man will go to water if Water will not come to him. So will ‘a plant. As soon as a plant has de- ‘veloped roots—its one means of jour- neying—it will make efforts to reach water in close propinquity. Tf watered dally there is no need for the roots to “feel out” for molat- ure. But a oncea-week watering will make the roots progress thru the ground in search of available moist- ure—and thus you will obtain what you want, a deep-rooted plant which will not need daily coddling, protec- tion and watering. The cells of plants are like those of persons. Thru these they get their nourishment, brought to them by water. And they are controlled, a8 are those of human beings, by natu- ral reactions. When men exercise and become heated, cells of their bodies open to permit more freedom In body breathing. Similarly, cells of plants open in warm atmosphere. Nature has shaped the cells of plants for greatest convenience, elongated in the stem and flattened in the leaves. Food carried into plants thru these long body cells goen to the leaves, where it turns! to sugar and starch.
