WHAT -A PLANT LIVES XX 
FOR ~ 
ae you go for a walk in the 
country, what do you see all about 
you? 
“Cows and horses, and chickens and 
birds, and trees and _ flowers,” 
answers some child. 
Yes, all of these things you 
see. But of the trees and plants 
you see even more than of the 
horses and cows and birds. On 
every side are plants of one kind 
| or another. The fields are full of 
grass plants. The woods are full of dree 
plants. Along the roadside are plants of 
many varieties. 
Now, what are all these plants trying 
to do? “To grow,” comes the answer.
