color in the fall, remarked au eminent
botanist the other day. The common
and oldfashioned idea is that all this
red and golden glory we see now le
caused by frosts. A true ecientific
explanation of the cause of the color-
ing of the leaves would necessitate a
long and intricate discussion. Stated
briefly and in proper langaage, those
causes are these :—The green matter
in the tissue of a ]eaf is composed of
two colors, red and blue. When the
sap ceases to flow in the fall and the
natural growth of the tree ceases,
oxidation of the tissue takes place.
Under certain conditions, the green of
the leaf changes to red ; under differ-
ent conditions, it takes on a yellow or
brown tint. The difference in color is
due to the difference in combination of
the original constituents of the green
tissue and to the varying conditions of
climate,exposure and soil. A dry cold
olitnate producea more' brilliant foliage
than one that is damp and warm.
This is the reason that our American
autumns are so much more gorgeous
than those of England. There are
several things about leaves that even
science cannot explain. For instance
