They thought it must be a baby, for when they cracked it, there were the two little leaves and the tiny stump of a root ready to grow, just like the other seed-babies, and of course if it were a baby it would have to get out of its shelly cradle some time, but it would not tell how. Nor am I going to tell any tales out of school, nor in school either. If you want to know, you will have to do as Jack and Ko did,—plant it and keep it moist. I can tell you this much,—Jack and his brother were considerably older as well as wiser before they finally discovered the hazel nut's secret.
Yes, they are quite soft and greenish yellow," said Ko, pulling off a piece of the shell. "There, there! now let me alone to grow in peace," said the nut, thinking investigations had been carried far enough. But Jack and Ko did not let it alone; they made it tell them a great many things about itself, and the great secret of how it was folded,—not at all as it looked to be. But if you want to know these things, you must go and plant some Madeira nuts for yourself, and keep them moist. If they are fresh, some will be sure to sprout, and if you are as bright as I think you are, they will tell you all that Ko's and Jack's nut told them.

"They have air, too, and water, and the root sends them food, but they eat all the good out of my cotyledons as well, and that is why they grow so fast.
