Ono Popularity of tho Redwood.

A striking popularity of the redwood
is the surprising facility with which it
initiates all other forms of coniferous
growth and branching. Some of the
tops of the younger trees have all the
wave, swing, and grace of feather palms,
others are sitter in line and resemble
more the sugar pine. The fir, the great
Sequoia, the Ponderosa or yellow pine,
and also the solid dome top, noticed so
sharply by Muir in the virgin groves Of
Sequoia on the Kaweah, are all typified
by this versatile tree.
It also has a peculiar feature Of its
own, a thick branching OF long, extended,
and pendulous arms, leahess, except o
slight furriness all over. The branches
have delicate and graceful ae2ibility Of
line and beautiful swing, without the
slightest woodiness or stiffness; and yet
this form Of growth is the most -epul-

of locomotives and to be able to seize
