pd5. The San Joanquin Journal says
that saccharine matter of delicious flavor
appears on the trees in California
On the leaves of the willows which grow
on the banks, it is found in canded form
on the upper surface, early in the month
of July. The Indians gather the sugar,
and, at their encampment enjoy the luxury
of chewing the leaves. On the leaves Of
the white oak, also, there is a clear deposit
of honey, which is as transparent and fine
as the article is ever seen, but it is of
thicker consistency. Here, also, it collects
on the upper surface of the foliage, until
the latter is borne down, when the saccha-
rine matter drops in masses or Jumps. Its
flavor is exceedingly pleasant. On the
ascent of the Sierra Nevada there is a
species of pine much resembling the white
pine of the Atlantic States, except that
the leaves turn down. This tree grows to
an enormous height and size-270 feet in
height, and 80 feet in diameter at the
base, and sometimes runs up $50 feet
almost without limb or crook-the resin.
Gus matter which exudes from the bark
has rich saccharine flavor.
