ETON NATURE-STUDY 



SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER WORK 



Endeavour to find other plants which are protected by spines and 



prickles formed of, or on, 

 similar structures to those 

 studied. These should be 

 drawn or preserved. The 

 examples which are alike 

 should be put together 

 and their similarity noted 

 down.
