The cells of the inner part of the hypoderm are. Figure 16 Fig. 16. Peanut. (2) Cells from fibre layer; T and L shaped cells and (1) long fibre cells. (3) Cells from hypoderm. also characteristic of the peanut. These are roughly rectangular in shape, and their walls are very porous. These porous walled cells are very easily identified in the powdered shells. The starch grains are also a help in the identification. They are spher- ical in shape and range in size from 5—15^ in diameter; seg- mented forms are of rare occurrence, and the grains do not occur in aggregates. The laminae in the grains are not visible, but the hilum is central and very distinct, and is seldom cleft. The polarization crosses are not very distinct under ordinary condi- tions. Fig. 16 shows the elements of the peanut which are useful in its diagnosis. COTTON SEED. {Gossy-pium, sp.) Cotton seed meal has come into prominence as a feed and is sold in bulk as well as mixed with other substances. It has a vellowish color and a characteristic taste and odor which can.
