With adequate knowledge Of the variability of the root systems of different varieties of crop plants, selection Of those most suitable for cultivation in such areas should be less difficult.

Where the basement consists of a single large chamber the air is too dry and also too warm to keep roots hard and crisp. It is necessary in separate the storage room from the room con taining the heating plant. Cement walls make the best partitions hut close heard walls will serve. If other necessary conditions can be secured. Direct contact with outside air is desirable by tiles or window slits.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Biology of Flowering Plants This book is an attempt to give an account of the way in which the flowering plant lives, especially in relation to its environment. This, it might be said, is the aim of ecology but ecology approaches the plant as a member Of a community, while biology, as it is understood here, is interested rather in the plant as an individual. In its methods biology has, during the last generation, become more and more experimental; it builds on a foundation of physiology. A certain amount of pure physiology must therefore be introduced. The difficulty of giving enough to make the foundation sound, and yet not so much as to obscure the picture, has been fully realised, though perhaps not overcome. The great majority of the drawings in the text are the work of Miss A. M. Davidson; about one-third are original, and these bear her initials, the remainder are copied, sometimes with modifications, from various sources which are acknowledged in the underlines. I am indebted to Professor J. E. Weaver for permission to reproduce Figs. 1, 2, 4, and 5 from his Ecological Relations of Roots. Fig. 50 is taken from Miss E. Kirkwood's Plant and Flower Forms. The photographs are original, and for help in their preparation I am indebted to Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
