 of Mulinia c;ierulea that have been drowned. Those in the foreground, which 

 is next the water, are quite dead, having sull'ered a longer submersion than 

 those in the background, which are still living, whilst the intermediate tussocks 

 exhibit a little vitality. 



Fig. 112. — Ballo Reservoir. General view from the hillside at the north-west, 

 looking south-east. In the immediate foreground is shown a portion of the 

 rough hill pasture which ])redomiiiates over the Lomond Hills. A superior 

 pasturage is being raised upon the enclosed ground at the other side of the 

 wall, whilst nearer the loch there are excellent meadows. The area of flat 

 ground lying at the west end of the loch, between the two plantations, is 

 covered with water in winter.
