An English botanist estimates that th*
tropica have from 40,000 to50,000 species
of plant*, the north temperature'
about 80,000 species, and toe Arctio
about or lea*
among
* 1.000, with some f,000
the Alpine flora, or ahqut 8,000
an Arctic climate,
weather class is, it
amounts to more than most people give It
credit for having,' the popular opinion
being that the polar regions and snow
clad mountain tops aro practically devoid
of vegetation. It is singular, too, that
while there are 768 kinds of flowers in
the Arctio regions, within the Antarctic)
circle a flowering plant has never yet
been found. Everything ia against Pluit
life at that end of the earth’s axletree.
Tiro weather is more severe throughout
the year, and there ere few tracts of
land of great extent on which plant life
can flourish; and we have already seen
that it is well inland on l^rgo land areas
where suck life flourishes the best in the
Arctic, where it can absorb somo of the
little heat that is coming down, Without
being chillod to death by. contiguous.ioe
fields.
But of these 768 kinds of flowering
plants in the Arctic, only somo 50 of
them, os far as we know, or about one-
fifteenth, ore wholly residents of that
zone. Thus it is seen that a nival or Al
pine flora, os compared witli that of the
Arctic, is a much more distinctive one,
# or has more species wholly its own in
proportion to the total number found.
The polar flo
flowers seldom have any per
fume, and the few that exhibit this de
lightful quality, however feeble, are, I
think, from that class that have crept
over the cold border marked by the Arc
tic Circle; or, in short, none of the fifty
mentioned — Esquimau flowers, wo
' might call thorn, in a popular way—have
any appreciable odor.
The color of these boreal blossoms are
generally of the cold tints, as if in har
mony with the chilly surroundings, in
stead of the warm hues that would break
in upon the desolation witli double effect
by sheer contrast where so few cheering
sights are to be s-ru. i.'liiteapd light
yellow predomin. and these colors
seem associated v,k!i costs and cold
weather, for it appears that those flowers
wo call “everlastings,’’ and which aro
the longest to defy the nippings of the
coming winter weather, are mostly tinted
like tlie northern snows and yellow
northern lights. It is in the depths of
Old Ocean that wo find some of the
largest expressions of plant life in the po
lar zone. Here, within a short distance
of shore, are colossal kelps and other life
that grow throughout the. year; of
course, vegetating the most in tho short
summer months.
Land., plants, as already said, aro pig
mies compared with those of the sea, or
even the corresponding class in tho lower
latitudes, and this dwarfed condition, a
naturalist tells us, is not due 60 much to
the intense cold in the Arctic winter as
to the fact they do not get enough
warmth in summer to develop them per
fectly. Dr. Joseph Hooper mentions it
as a rare property of one of the grauiine£D
(the grasses), Trisetum Hubspicatum, that
it is the only polar species known which
is equally an inhabitant of the Arctic and
Antarctic legions.
Nearly all of the plants of these cold
countries ure of the biennial or perennial-
sorts, as the season is too short to give
nnnnals the whole length of time they
demand for the maturing of their fruit
to inkure the next season’s growth. These
E erenniais act like our hardy spring flora,
y rapidly pushing their growth before
the snow is all oil the ground and with
tho very first cessation of the vernal cold. -
I have seen flowers in bloom so close to
the snow on King William’s land that I
think tho foot qould bo put down and
leave an impression on the edgo of the
snow and crush the flower at the same
step; while Middendorf, a Siberian
traveler of note, says that ho has seen a
rhododendron in that country in full
flower.
It Is hardly to bo expected that any
useful or cultivated plants should bo
found within the limits of the frigid
zones, nd yet bqth are known in this
unexpected locality. There is the scurvy
grass, a rough ctmfiferous plant that is
famous for tho good it has done afnong
explorers in that rough clime in contend -
1 ing with tho terrible disease which has
given it its distinctive name. Barley is
grown in good crops os higli as Alten,' in
Norway, in latitude 70 dega. north, or
about 250 miles abovo tho Arctio circle.
It is June, July and August in growing,'
and tho rapidity pf this polar growth
under a never setting sun may bo plainly
shown by stating that these barley stalks
have been known to grow two and a half
inches hi twenty-four'hours. Where tho
heat is Held by little valleys this Nor
wegian barley may, in favorable seasons,
bo ready to .cut in about two months
after sowing; and thus two crops secured
in one summer; just os California brags
of its two crops of certain growths in one
season. But what would California think
of bleak Norway as a competitor in rais
ing three crops on tho same piece of
ground iu one year? There is a tradition
in the province of Thelomarken—tho
place from whence comes the celebrated
snowshoo men of Norway—that a certain
farm known as tho Triset gets the first
syllabic, tri (three), from the three crops
once reaped on the land in one season.
Bye, which is not so hardy, is cultivated
in Norway for 150 to 200 miles above the
Arctic circle, and even in Sweden it is
carried up lo that line. Barley was
raised in Iceland from 870 to 1400, and
then nhandoned for more profitable cattle
raising, but is again being cultivated to
avoid famines which are sweeping that
land.—Lieut. Schwatka in Woman.
