One of the conclusions reached in this man-ner, which asserts the polarity of the plant cell, is at presentbeyond the general level of the subject. Polarity will doubtlessbe recognized as one of the most important physiological proper-ties of protoplasm when the advance of the subject makes its ap-preciation possible. The researches of Vochting have dealt prin-.

The garden is located in the northeastern part of Tiibingen inwestern Wurtemberg. It lies at an elevation of about one thou-sand feet, on the plateau encircled by the Schwarzwald, in latitude48° 30 north. Near it are hills covered with forests of pine, whichrise two hundred and fifty to three hundred feet above it, while tothe southward, twenty miles away, the Swabian Alps reach to aheight of twenty-five hundred feet, in consequence of which thenight temperature falls far below that of the day. A low win-ter temperature of —30° C, and a summer limit of 25° to 28° C,help to make a climate which resembles that of southern Michig
