A curious explanation of the method
.by which longleaf pine seedlings pro-
tect themselves against forest fires is
given by Clifford Pinchet, forester of
the department of agriculture. In or
der to strengthen the struggle for
existence of the young tree nature
gives it thickness of bark not un-
commonly as great as that Of the wood
itself, but the young trees have a
further device for the promotion of
their safety when growing in long
grass, as they almost always do. In
the first four or five years of its growth
the longleaf Seeding seldom reaches
. a height of more than four or five
inches above the ground. But while
the stem is thus making leisurely prog
ress the long needles shoot up and
bend over in green cascade, which
falls to the ground in circle about
the Seeding. This barrier of green
needles not only burns with difficulty,
but shades out the grass around the
young stem, and SO prepares double
fire-resisting shield about the vitals Of
the young tree. This is the reason
why fire, which has kept down the
growth of evergreen oaks in parts of
Florida, for example, has made pure
forest Of pines in a region where oaks
thrive splendidly when they are so
placed as to be beyond the influence of
forest fires.
