(Twelve seed samples of Cassia species have been chemically examined for their mucilage contents. All these mucilages which were found to be essentially galactomannan, were highly viscosity being 5600 cps of the seeds of Cassia grandis). The Cassia seeds have been reported (Tookey, 1965; Kapoor, 1971) to contain high amounts of mudlages. With a view of establishing their usefulness as sources for commercial Mucilages (gums), the indigenous Cassia seeds have further been chemically investigated and the results embodied in the present communications. Seeds were collected from forests of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.- Matricaria chamomilla Linn.-a Remunerative Crop for Saline-alkali-soils

Matricaria chamomilla Linn popularly known as German or Hungarian Chamomile, is an important drug plant, flowers of which yield 'blue oil' having anti-phlogistic properties. It is also used against stomach ailments, and as a flavouring agent in fine liquors and in perfumes. Seeds were introduced from Jammu in 1965 and multiplied at Research Station, Banthra of National Botanic Gardens, Lucknow, with ultimate object of economic utilisation. Of substandard saline-alkali soils. Encouraging preliminary observations led us to work out details or its agronomic requirements in the alluvial plains of U.P. Cultural aud manurial trials indicated that the crop is well suited for cultivation on the saline-alkali soils and the plants thrived even where the efflorescence of salts appeared. 6-8 weeks old seedlings closely spaced at 30 × 30 cm gave the highest yield, The optimum time of plantiug lies between last week of November and first week of December. The crop responded well to fertilisation and the optimum dose of N and P lies between 50-60 kg N/ha and 50 kg P205/ha. Yield of fresh flowers as high as 45 q per hectare was recorded. A net income per hectare of Rs 1,500/- and Rs, 5,600/- can he obtained from the sale of flowers and oil respectively.- A Note on the Germination of Seeds of Indian Belladonna

Due to the rapidly increasing importance of Steroid sapogenins for the manufacture of cortisone, sex hormones and oral contraceptives, there is a vigorous search all over the world for vegetable raw meterials which can provide cheap and sustained supplies of starting material for further synthesis of a variety of steroid hormones, particularly oral contraceptive agents for population control. In India, some of the plants such as Dioscorea deltoidea have yielded as high as 4.8 to 8.0 per cent and D. prazeri 2.0 to 4.0 per cent Diosgenin which is at present, the most favoured starting material for synthesis of steroid hormones. Some of the Agava species used for the extraction of fibre yield workable percentage of hecogenin from its pulp which is a by-product. Similarly, some species of Solanum, namely Solanum incanum, S. khasianum and S. aviculare (a recently introduced plant) have yielded gluco- alkaloids, solasidine and solanine which can be used for the same purpose. The diagnostic characters of these plants with a view to distinguish them from other edible yams, the variation in diosgenin contents due to season of sampling or ecology or geographical races are discussed.- Some Indian Plant Gums - Their Botany, Chemistry and Utilization

About a dozen Indian plant gums of commercial as well as medicinal importance have been discussed. Some distinguishing chemical tests have been recorded which could serve to detect adulterations. Detailed chemical studies of the gum from Albi ia procera Benth. Have also been carried out as substitute for imported gum-arabic from Acacia senegal.- Variation in the Solasonine Content of Fruits of S. khasianum at Different Stages of Development in Lucknow

Solanum khasianum Clarke, grown during July 1968 to May 1969 at N.B.G. Lucknow shows the development of maximum solasonine content in fruits when the plants are 9 to 10 weeks old by which time fruits change the colour from green to yellow. There is a sharp decline in the Solasonine contents if the fruits are allowed to mature beyond the yellow colour stage. Observations on flower to fruit development have also been recorded.- Culture and Propagation of Tylophora indica (Burm. f.) Merr.: the Asthma Herb

Epidermal chargcters and venation pattern of leaves of ten Indian species of Polygonum Linn. belonging to five sections viz., P. recumbens Royle ex Bab. (Sect. Avicularia Meissn.) ; P. affine D. Don, P. amplexicaule Don, P. vacciniifolium Wall. ex Meissn. (Sect. Bistorta Tourn.) ; P. glabrum Willd., P. lupathifolium Linn., P. serrulatum Lagasc. (Sect. Persicaria Meissn.) ; P. chinense Linn., P. nepalense Meissn. (Sect. Cephalophilon) and P. rumicifolium Royle ex Bab. (Sect. Aconogon Meissn.) have been investigated for an appraisal of the extent of utility of these characters with regard to the taxonomy of this interesting group. The variability pattern in these features has been found to be independent of the established pattern at sectional level as set by criteria of external morphology. However, these do serve as helpful data of diagnostic value.- Pharmacognostical Studies on Jivanti Part II-Leptadenia reticulata Wight and Arn. (Syn. Gymnema aurantiacum Wall. ex Hook.

The Karimnagar District lies in the Telangana Region of Andhra Pradesh (18°-19°10' N ; 78°30'-80°20'E). It was recently surveyed with the objective of exploring the possibility of exploiting non agricultural plants of economic value. The survey and collection was done mainly at Mahadevpur, Nimmagodem and Manthani Ranges of the District. The present paper records those taxa which are found as additions to the flora of Karimnagar. The district lies within the tropical deciduous belt which occupies a larger part of the peninsular India. The forests abound in teak mixed with deciduous trees of a number of species, the preponderance of which depends on soil and habitat conditions.- Pharmacognostical Studies of Angelica glauca Edgew

A survey conducted in the neighbourhood of Kedamath and the adjoining area brought to light that the wayside traders employ ischolar_mains and rhizomes of Parnassia nubicola Wall, ex Royle (Pamassiaceae) as ‘Mamira’, reputed to be good for various eye ailments. The ischolar_mains of this species look similar in gross appearance to those of Thalictrum foliolosum DC. (Ranunculaceae), which is one of the various species that have been attributed to 'Mamira' (Chopra et al. 1956). The present paper deals with a detailed pharmacognosy of the ischolar_main and rhizome of Parnassia nubicola Wall, ex Royle.- Epidermal and Venation Studies in Apocynaceae-V
