The most interesting item about the date palm, however, la the fact that it was the first species in which the dis- of sex in plants was over noticed.

And so, too, the distinction of male and female in the date palm forced itself violently upon tho attention of hungry humanity ages before Linnaeus had the functions of pollen or the arrangements of in the and the buttercup. Most plants, as all the world now knows, have the stamens, produce the pollen, and the pistil, which contains the embryonic seeds, in one and the same blossom; though even in such cases provision is usually made for cross by tho agency of insects. either became the stamens and pistils do not both mature simultaneously, or ear.- the pollen is so arranged as never to fall naturally upon the sensitive stigma of the capsule.
