A, young hair from the stem before it has been drawn out; 2), an older hair more highly magnified, after its ex- tremity has been drawn out into a thread-like lash ; C, nair with a long lash from the underside of a full-grown leaf. Highly magniied.—After Beal. (/) Clustered or tufted hairs are found on many MaXvaeem, and the nearly related scales or peltate hairs on Sheplierdia. (g) Root-hairs are best obtained for study by growing seeds of mustard, radish, wheat, etc., on damp cotton or blotting-paper, and then mak- ing careful longitudinal sections of the terminal portion of the root at the place where the hairs are just appearing (usually several millimetres above the tip of the root). By making preparations in this way all stages of the development of these hairs may be studied in the same specimen. (h) Glandular hairs are found in many groups of plants ; they may be studied in Petunia, Verbena, Primula, Ma/rtynia, and the, tomato. (j) Apparently related to glandular hairs are the curious hairs from.
