It is connected-with the common associations. Plants always should be taught by the "labora- tory method '' : that is, the pupil should work out the subjects directly from the specimens themselves ; but I should want it undefstood that the best "laboratory" may be the field.

It should begin with familiar plant forms and phenomena. It should be related to the experiences of the daily life.

It is often said that the high school pupil should begin the study of botany with the lowest and simplest forms of life.
