[[Nature Ready To Unveil Fall Colors MhinAon tW l? ?bou - Mother N? about to begin her annual coloring of leaves in much of North America. Fall foliage in an area broad ly ranging from Canada's Mar itime Provinces to the Ozarks and from the Great Smokies to the Rockies creates a spec tacular color display unparal leled anywhere in the world. The annual leaf-changing show is a virtuoso perfor mance that only Nature could produce, the National Geo graphic Society says. This eye-catching pageant in full color is at its best in portions of the United States and Canada because those areas have just the right com bination of tree types, cli mate, and weather. An essential ingredient is a great variety of deciduous trees, the kind whose broad leaves turn color and drop in autumn. The majority of these are hardwoods, and they are most abundant in North America. The coloration process works best where there is real Indian summer-clear, bright days and moderately cool nights) in proper proportion. Reduced daylight hours, not drops in temperature, set off the changes in leaves. The shortening of the days signals a tree to slow down its growth and enter a dormant I ASC ORDERS OATS RYE RYE GRASS HEAT BARLEY -FESCUE FERTILIZER - LIME BULK - SPREAD -- DA6GED L. H.

The public is cordially invited to attend. period. The roots respond by cur tailing the flow of sap--a com bination of water and nutri ents-to the leaves, which slowly lose their firm con nection with the twigs and branches. At the same time, things begin happening to cltloro phyll, the green pigment in leaves. No longer renewed by the tree's circulation, it be gins to decompose and bleach away. Then pigments the chloro phyll has hidden can be seen and have their brief period of glory. Yellow and orange leaves get their color from two pig ments, carotene and xantho phyll. Reds and purples are produced by a group of pig ments called anthocyanins. Combinations of these agents bring about variegated hues in a single tree. Color patterns change al most daily as autumn progres ses Reds and purples turn to bronzes as bright pigments blend with the browns of dying leaves. Finally, most of the leaves reach the ground, either fall ing of their own weight or losing their slight hold in a breeze. In most areas they either remain on the ground and decay or are hauled off.
