Trees Die from Sunstroke.
From Meehan's Monthly.


During the late extraordinary warm spell
the writer of this paragraph was called
upon to see large sugar maple tree that
was supposed to have been destroyed by
leak of the city gas main at the root, but
an examination showed that the tree died
literally from sunstroke. 1t is strange that
close observers Of trees are unable to see
when anything is out of the common run
of things, and consequently note that some
thing is going wrong The sugar maple
had been planted on the street probably
quarter Of century ago, and was about
four feet in circumference, but the trunk
was almost triangular, and yet this pecu-
Earity seemed to attract no attention. The
tree was simply triangular, because on
three sides of it the bark and wood had
evidently been destroyed years ago, while
the outer bark still continued to cover up
the injury, and the only live wood was ON
the angles Of the trunk. Only about one
third of the trunk was practically alive.
When the exceedingly warm spell came 1t
was impossible for these limited ducts to
supply the moisture requiredgtor such
large surface of foliage, and the tree,
therefore, literally died from inability to
furnish the moisture required feas transpl-
ration. 1t may be always taken for granted
that when the trunk of tree, naturally
cylindrical, takes an angular form there is
something wrong beneath the bark and
an examination should at once be made,
The fatter portions will usually be found
dead In this case the bark should wholly
be cut away from the dead portion and the
denuded part painted, in order to check
rotting away In time the healthy wood
NAV grow over the wound or lifeless part
and the life of the tree be eventually
saved.
