Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Botany The material in the book, which is sufficient for a year's course, is so arranged that it can be adjusted to a half-year course when local needs make this desirable. When seasons are favorable it is thought best to follow the order of chapters as given, but seasonal conditions are so diverse in different parts of the country that the teacher is urged to rearrange chapters whenever necessary for adequate illustration of such topics as flowers, seeds, and weeds: If this is done, Chapters I and II may be studied briefly, and then followed by chapters dealing with special topics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Botany: For Beginners A Few words may be said to explain the origin of the work of which the present portion is a first instalment. In 1873 I was invited by the Science and Art Department to conduct a course of instruction in what is now the Normal School of Science at South Kensington. It was a condition of the undertaking that the instruction should be carried on continuously from day to day and throughout the working hours of each day. My friend Mr. Lawson, late Professor of Botany at Oxford, was so good as to give me his assistance. We had the use of Professor Huxley's convenient and well-appointed laboratory, and we determined to attempt a course of instruction which should embrace the leading morphological facts of every important type in the vegetable kingdom. We, in fact, resolved to adopt exactly the same plan of work as Professor Huxley in his own teaching had found convenient for the animal side of morphology.

Here, in contrast with the Thallo phytes and Bryophytes, the ordinary form of the plant is the sporophyte. The alternation of generations is sharp. The spore develops into a at aggregate of cells called the prothallium, which resembles in function the protonema of the Bryophytes. The prothallium is the gametophyte.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Course of Practical Instruction in Botany A chapter has been devoted to the Characeae, which were entirely omitted in previous editions; various subsidiary types have been introduced here and there in the text in small print, with a view to extending the course beyond the dangerously narrow limits of pure type-teaching.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Botany All the Year Round: A Practical d104-Book for Schools The experiments described are for the most part very simple, requiring no appliances but such as the ingenuity of the teacher and pupils can easily devise, as will be seen by a glance at the list on pages 12 and 13 of the text. Teachers trained in normal schools, where all the material needed for their work is furnished by the State, and ample time allowed them, are often completely at a loss when transferred to country schools, where no provi sion is made for laboratory work, and the patrons grumble if called upon to buy so much as a drawing book or a hand lens. Too often they can think of no other resource than to drop botany from the curriculum altogether rather than depart from what they have been taught to consider the only scientific method. It is hoped that the present volume may suggest a better way out of the difficulty, and also that it may be a help to those who have not enjoyed the advantage of a technical training.

This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Practice for Beginners in Botany In order to make the study of botany more effective under the first head, it seems best to bring the student into imme diate contact with the object itself, in the laboratory; and not only that, but to avoid interposing apparatus, as far as possible, between the student and the object to be studied. For this purpose, the writer has practically confined his attention to the larger plants. Desiring also to cultivate, as far as possible, the ability to draw correct inferences from exact observations, the writer has deemed it best to consider the subject from a somewhat different point of view from that usually adopted, and has attempted to make the morphological study bear fruit in this direction. The great difficulty in most laboratory work is to make the students realize the significance of the morphological details. They may observe accurately and record their observations carefully, but what of that? The physiological significance is overlooked - even in many cases where experiments are used to illustrate physiological phenomena. That the plant is a living thing, is a fact that must be borne actively in mind, both by teacher and by student. The plant must obtain the materials for its support, and to do this it must compete with other plants; it must protect itself against or seek the aid of animals it must obtain the energy and materials to reproduce its kind, and endeavor to place its offspring where they may have a proper chance for development; and, destitute of a mind as it is, it exercises an ingenuity, so to speak, that is of no mean order. We must, then, think of the plant as a living, working, struggling being with a single object in life, viz. To reproduce its kind and every variation in structure, be it great or little, is to be examined to determine, if possible, its use or history.

The student must actually see as much as possible of what is here brought to his notice. The book simply marshals in logical order the objects to be studied. No doubt some thing may be learned by a simple consecutive reading of the paragraphs of the book, but the young botanist should not be content to obtain all his facts at second hand; he must see with his own eyes all that may be seen.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Botany, Theoretical and Practical The farm seeds are also drawn to a uniform scale their rela tive sizes may therefore be seen at a glance. In this as in all scientific study, practical work is absolutely essential to a proper understanding of the subject; in recognition of the importance of such work I have introduced into the text of the volume a series of exercises and experiments, illustrative of the principles and facts to be studied. These and others, which will suggest themselves to intelligent students, should be attacked and carried out in the spirit of research, so that students may learn to observe, record and discover things themselves. In conclusion, I tender my sincere thanks to my colleague Mr Cousins, and also to Mr W. H. Hammond, Milton Chapel, Canterbury, and Dr A. B. Rendle, of the British Museum (natural History Department), for valuable criticism and assist ance in reading through the proofs.
