✦ Synopsis

Imported seeds of Perilla frutescens L. (cv. Aka-Shiso and Ao-Shiso) were propagated and cultivated in Egypt. The growth, herbal yield and volatile oil yield were recorded. The yield of volatile oil, extracted by hydrodistillation, reached 0.17%, 0.01% and 0.16% of fresh weight of leaves, stem and ¯owers, respectively. The volatile oil of the aerial parts of each variety was analysed by capillary GC±MS. The hydrodistillates of both varieties mainly consist of perillaldehyde, caryophyllene oxide, limonene and caryophyllene, with perillaldehyde as the main constituent (32.9% and 34.2% for Aka-Shiso and Ao-Shiso, respectively). Some signi®cant dierences in the oil constituents were observed, where caryophyllene oxide reached 23.3% in Ao-Shiso but accounted for only 6.0% in Aka-Shiso. The antimicrobial activity for both oils was studied.

The cultivation of hydrastis**This article is written in the first person, and, by request of the editor, gives facts concerning Hydrastis culture as observed in my own experimentations, corroborated by others known to me personally. No attempt has therefore been made to embody the experiences of persons who have heretofore printed articles on the subject, nor have my own previous publications, or my own photographs and detail notes'been used at all, excepting briefly. The cuts, excepting those showing the Hydrastis farm of Dr. Homsher, are from Drugs and Medicines of North America, 1884, or from others of my previous prints on the subject. The object being to present the problem so as to save to others experimental wanderings, I must yet urge the reader who proposes to enter the field of Hydrastis culture, to study carefully the Bulletins issued OR this subject by the Agricultural Department of the United States Government, especially the admirable pamphlet of Miss Alice Henkel and G. Fred Klugh, of the Bweau of Plant Industry.-L.
