This substance is easily dissolved, and it is believed that by its formation the function of the sieve- plate is arrested during the period of winter inactivity, to be resumed again in summer, the callous substance being dis- solved away. The contents of the tubes are such as to support the opinion that their function is to conduct various in- soluble materials in masses from place to In their mature condition there is a thin layer of protoplasmic substance lining the wall.
