Tom Hughes on American Tree Cut

From the London Spectator.


From the london Spectator.
There are few more interesting expert
ences than ride through these Southern
forests. The scrub is so low and thin, that
you can almost see away for long distances
amongst pine. white oak and chestnut
trees: and every now and then at ridges
where the timber is thin, or where clump
of trees has been ruthlessly "girdled." and
the bare, gaunt skeletons only remain
standing, you may catch glimpses of
mountain ranges OF different shades of blue
and green. stretching far away to the
horizon. You can't live many days up
here without getting to love the trees even
more, L think. than we do in we'll kempt
England; and this outrage of 'girdliDg."
as they call it-stripping the bark from
the lower part of the trunk, so that the
trees wither and die as they stand-strikes
one as kind of household cruelty. as If a
man should cut off or disfsure all his wife's
hair. If he wants a tree for lumber or
frewood. very good He should have it.
But he should cut it down like
man, and take it clean away for some
reasonable use, not leave it as scare
crow to bear witness of his reck-
lessness and laziness. Happily not much
mischief of this kind has been done yet 10

will now be put to the wretched practice

but which. no doubt. has more to be said
for it. At least half of the largest pines
alongside of the sandy tracts which do
duty for roads have long gaping wound
IN their sides, about yard in their sides,
about yard from the ground. This was
the native way of collecting turpentine,
which oozed down and accumulated at the
bottom OF the cash; but | rejoice to say it
no longer pays. and the custom is in dis
use. 1t must be suppressed altogether,
but carefully and gently. Il seems that
If not persisted in too long, the poor, dear
long suffering trees will close up their
wounds, and not be much the worse; so |
trust that many OF the scored pines spring
ing forty or fifty feet ia the air before
throwing cut branch. which passed in
sorrow and anger on my first long ride,
may yet outlive those who outraged
them. Having got rid of my spleen, ex-
cited by these diabolic customs, [ can re-
turn to our ride. which had otherwise
nothing but delight in it.
