. Annual report of the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University and the Agricultural Experiment Station. New York State College of Agriculture; Cornell University. Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). HOME NATURE-STUDY COURSE. TEACHER'S LEAFLET. BASED UPON THE WORK FOR FOURTH, FIFTH AND SIXTH YEAR PUPILS AS OUTLINED IN THE SYLLABUS OF NATURE-STUDY AND AGRICULTURE ISSUED I'.Y THE NEW YORK STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT. With the leaflets of the coming year, the Home Nature-Study Course will cease. Since 1906, the lessons of this Course have been devoted to the elucidation of the State Syllabus of Nature-Study and Agricul- ture, and type lessons have been given on about one hundred topics, including twenty animals, sixteen birds, twelve insects, twenty-four plants, eighteen trees, and six lessons on soils and several on astronomy. Six thousand of each issue of the leaflets have been distributed each year among the teachers of the State; and those teachers who have preserved their copies have no material which essentially covers the work of the Syllabus to the seventh grade, where agriculture takes the place of nature-study. The Home Nature-Study Course for the current year will cover the most important required subjects which we have not yet discussed.

Such plants are either parasites or sapro- phytes; if parasites, llicy steal the food from the cells of liv- mg i>lants ; if sapro- jf^^ common-edible mushroom in early stages showing the phytes, they live on giiu covered with veil. 1103.
