Book The Book of Nature Study  Vol  3  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Book of Nature Study Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by John Bretland Farmer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Nature Study, Vol. 3 It will be clear from what has been said that the study Of plant life is abundantly fascinating. Every one with even a small garden can watch the spread Of a given plant, or the adapta tion Of structure, or the growth Of seedlings. Even without a garden a great deal can be done with window boxes, with seeds in saucers, or in glass jam jars. The habit Of Observing Nature brings with it its own delight, and, once begun, is not likely to be given up but the importance Of a real, first-hand knowledge Of Nature cannot be exaggerated in the case Of those engaged in what is popularly called Nature Study. The main Object Of Nature Study should be to develop the mental faculties Of Observation and reasoning. This cannot be done satisfactorily except by those teachers who are always finding out things for themselves, and constantly experimenting in one way or another, either repeating the experiments Of others, or, still better, devising new ones, however small, for themselves. For this reason, constant reference will be made in this section to new work both in America and in Europe, and a bibliography will be given, in which the more recent botanical literature will be mentioned. Laboratory experiments are valuable, and in towns may be the only ones possible, but those who live in the country should be content with nothing -less than Observing Nature accurately and, like Gilbert White Of Selborne, sympathetic ally and reverently.

The only solid objection that can be al legad against me is my inability. But I have witnessed much injustice; I have myself been a victim of it. The images of disorder have excited in me ideas of order. Besides, my errors will serve to display the sagacity of those who shall correct them. If I present but one single useful idea to my prince, whose bounty has hitherto sup ported me, though my services have gone unrewarded, I shall obtain a recompense the most precious; if I may flatter myself with having dried the tears of some unhappy being, at the latest moment of life this recollection will wipe away my own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature Study, Vol. 3: Published Under the Auspices of the Manchester Institute of Arts and Sciences There is nothing in the shape of the flower called the pink lady-slipper to suggest the name. The showy part of the flower is a pouch with a closed but easily opened fissure down the whole length in front. In the yellow spe cies the corresponding part is really shaped like a Slipper, or rather a baby's sock. In France the flowers are called les sabots de la Vierge. The large opening in the top has its raison d'etre, as we shall see when we come to consider the parts of the flower and their uses. A similar construction of the slipper is found in C. Spectabile, while in C. Arietinum the extremity or toe is so pointed as to have suggested the common name, ram's head.

Download or read book The Book of Nature Study Vol 4 Classic Reprint written by John Bretland Farmer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Nature Study, Vol. 4 If a plant is dug up and the underground parts freed from the soil the green leafy shoot will be found to have arisen from a thick brown underground stem Of rather irregular shape. The surface Of this is marked with narrow scars left by scale-leaves, and a little examination will throw light on the mode Of growth Of the plant. The leafy shoot grows straight up from the thin anterior portion Of the underground stem, and appears to be the development Of the apex Of the latter. In the axil of a scale leaf at the base Of the shoot is a large bud, which is destined to grow into next year's shoot. On looking at the Older portion of the underground stem we recognise the large circular scars left by the aerial stem at the end Of each annual joint or segment, further growth having always been carried on by a lateral bud. A number Of thick roots grow out from the underground stem, and the latter increases in thickness, its tissues serving as a place of storage for reserve food material. This is used in the earlier stages Of the growth Of the leafy shoots. The cow-parsnip is thus a perennial herb, the leafy shoots Of which die down each autumn, leaving the Old underground stem and the bud which continues the growth next season. When more than one bud is established the underground stem becomes branched, and more than one leafy shoot is sent up from it each year.
