This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1884 edition. Excerpt: ...to the mouth in the human frame.

At this time certain constituent portions of the air are utilized and mingled with the nourishment retained. This is all, now a small portion in comparison with what had arisen from the roots, yet retaining enough water to serve as as a vehicle back, is returned toward the roots, depositing in its way, in leaf, bark, and root, what is needed there for the growth of the tree.

The water which was retained to carry them down, being no longer needed, passes out at the roots.... In the back of the leaf are numerous stomates or mouths....
