A CHANCE FOR AN EXPERIMENT.
Have plants intelligence? Do they ever think? These are interesting questions that would have to be answered by the statement of an observer of the ways of pumpkins and melons. Says he: "Plants often exhibit something very much like intelligence. If a bucket of water, during a dry season, be placed a few inches from a growing pumpkin or melon vine, the latter will turn from its course, and in a day or two will get one of its leaves in the water."
We do not vouch for the truth of this, but if there be any young gardeners among the readers of the Round Table it might make an interesting experiment for them next summer when they are pursuing their avocation.
