At the request OF the general land
once, Mr. Lester F. Ward recently e1-
plored the fossil forests Of Arizona
The richest deposit Of silicifed trees
covers an area of about eight miles
square, In Apache county. In some
parts Of this area the petrined logs lie
much more thickly than they could
have stood while living and Mr. Ward
thinks they must have been transport
ed by swift currents Of water in the
Nesozoic era. Microscopic inspection
Of the texture OF the agatixed wood
proved that 1t resembled the arauca-
rian pine Of the southern hemisphere.
