" : We had a very pleasant call last niht from Mr. Chas. Mr, Ph,D of Mobile, who has for several years been in the - emplov of the gvernmenl in the Forestry Dav idson connected with th'e-Agr cult' ural Depaitment- He has fiad ijp portunities for wide observation of the swamp lauds of tjouth Car olina, Georda; Florida, !Arabrna, Mississippi,' Louisiana, ; Arkansas and Texas, having traveled exten sively through those States, hun dreds of miles on horseback; frv- quently alone for many ditys'orj even weeks. His narration of the condition of things in' these re giqns face of the country, s6lr, climate, productions and people is exceedingly graph'fc and inter- "" His investigation has beeii con fined solely o two- sorts of trees and the timber made fr'om them." Cypress and Pine. - The object was to ascertain the facts in regard to the different varieties, in what way and degree they wereMliflu enced by location, soil and climate, their adaptability so certain' used, 'etc, He stated that notwithstand ing all the different appearances presented and apparent varieties known as black, white, red, etc. there is but one cypress, all differ ences being attributed to environ ment. The condition' frequently observed in cypress fumber,known as "pocky', cypress Is produced by a "shake" or fracture high up the tree, in which the water gathers and desending by gravity or enter ing the circulation distributes its, spores which in time contaminate the whole trunk. While it cannot be detected by the appearance of the back or body of ths tree, a lumberman well up in his craft can give a very .shrew guess; by observing closely the lower or larg er limbs. f These are fac3 well worthy 'of special remmbrance3 for never have we founrt anyone betore able to account for this condition of the trees. The mill men know the de fectivtt places apparently eaten out by some Jimber' pest, are iiotcrtus ed in that way for no worni'sre ever found in them, but they were all utterly at loss as. to what did cause it. Th.e timber thus affect ed is sometimes called '"beaver eaen'' bu,t wherein the applicabil ity of this name lies we have nev ei been able to see. V :; .'.j. .
