From a study of the growth, and fall of the leaf in perpetual summer, botanists in Java and Ceylon have been lately seeking new light on an old subject. At the Botanic Gardens at Bultenzorg, Prof. G. Volkens has found the climate not quite uniform, as there is a periodicity in precipitation, relative relative humidity and Insolation; and from records of more than 100 tree species growing in the gardens, he has obtained obtained illustrations of nearly every kind of foliage behavior--some trees being regularly deciduous (accustomed to losing their leaves) once or e twice a year, certain evergreens having marked marked periodicity, and others having uniform uniform foliage gradually renewed throughout the year. . He concludes that the leaf-fall is not due to the checking of activity by an excess of stored food, some unknown internal action of the protoplasm seeming seeming to him the primary cause.
