The Stomata And Palisade Cells Of Leaves, F. C. Stewart

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The name stomata (sing. stoma) has been applied to the elliptical apertures in the epidermis of leaves and other green parts of plants. The stoma is a modified epidermal cell and consists of a rift and guardian cells (usually two in number). The guardian cells are rightly named for it is their function to regulate the amount of evaporation from the leaf by opening and closing the rift. Unlike ordinary epidermal cells, the guardian cells contain chlorophyll, and for that reason they were once, thought to belong to the parenchyma.

Preliminary Observations On A Cattle Disease Frequently Occurring In Iowa, W. B. Niles

Notes On The Geology Of Northwestern Iowa, J. E. Todd

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

I handed in the subject of this paper, intending to throw together various notes which have been accumulating for several years. I recently took a trip to the region under consideration intending to visit several localities and examine the borings of several wells, which, however, I was prevented from doing for lack of time. Had I been able to procure careful notes from all the wells I should be more decided on several points stated below.

Woody Plants Of Western Wisconsin, L. H. Pammel

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This paper simply embodies the results of some observations made about La Crosse, Wisconsin, from twenty to twenty-five miles northeast and south, and the southwestern part of Minnesota in Houston and Fillmore Counties. The region is entirely in the driftless area.

Forest Vegetation Of The Upper Mississippi, L. H. Pammel

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The paper before the Academy consisted in a verbal communication of the salient features of the forest vegetation. It was afterward written out in full and sent to Garden and Forest (See Vol. IV. pp. 460, 472 and 531). As the paper may be of general interest to Iowa readers I give it essentially as it appeared in Garden and Forest. A few notes have been added.

[07] Elizabeth Grimes, Letter, Death, And Mourning, Elizabeth S. Grimes

Iowa Documents Class Projects

This is a letter from Elizabeth Grimes, wife of James Grimes, she’s sending it in response to recently learning about the death of another friend. In this letter, she is saying kind words about her virtuous late friend, religion, and sheds light on the process of mourning in the Victorian era of America. Additionally, there is some information about the state of the government at the time as the letter is written just 15 days before the secession of South Carolina from the Union and 4 months before the beginning of the civil war.
