Vegetable Stanch, 



1 3 days after b, and 4 days after a. Af a » 

 at 7 a. m. a puttied 1 inch, ~CV ^_ \ } ^ 

 towards noon they all three fucked. 



I have frequently obferved the fame dif. 

 ference in other Vines, where the like ga« c $ 

 have been fixed at the fame time, to old 

 and young branches of the fame Vine, viz. 

 the oldeft began firft to fuck. 



In this Experiment we fee the great force 

 of the fap, at 44 feet 3 inches diftancefrom 

 the root, equal to the force of a column of 

 water 30 feet -]— 1 1 inches -\- $ high. 



From this Experiment we fee too , that 

 this force is not from the root only, but 

 mud alio proceed from fomc power, in the 

 ftem and branches: For the branch # was 

 much fooner influenced by changes from 

 warm to cool, or dry to wet, and vice ver- 

 /#,than the other two branches a orfjand 

 b was in an imbibing ftatc, 9 days before 

 a, which was all that time in aftate of push- 

 ing fap ; and c puftied 1 3 days after b had 

 ceafed pulhing, and was in an imbibing 

 it ate. 



Which imbibing ftate Vines and Appk' 



trees continue in all the Cummer, in every 



branch,
