THE MAMMA TREE.
1t IL Species of Ash Which IL Tap
ped For It's Gum.


Few know that mama is species
of gum which exudes from the ash.
The true mama ash is the Fraxinus
ornus. 1t is beautiful tree and has
much handsomer flowers than any 9th
er ash. In some parts of Sicily trees
are planted especially for these sub
stances which they yield. just as in
some parts of our country the sugar
maple is planted for its sugar. The
ash trees are tapped when about ten
years old A transverse cut is made
about one-third of the circumference Of
the tree, a number of these transverse
cuts being made one above the other.
AS many as forty-fve cuts are fire.
quently made in one large trunk.
In some countries where mama is
collected it is done by inserting tubes,
just as is the case of collecting the
maple sugar, but where these cuts are
made the gum runs down the trunk
and hardens. The following season
cuts are made just above those of the
previous year. After this has been
three years in progress the stems are
cut down and the new crop of shoots
left to get matured. Sometimes, how
ever the stems are left standing four
years before being finally cut away.
