Many Kinds of Oaks

There are 800 kinds of oak trees hav-
ing vastly different characteristics, but
they have one common feature, and
that is they all produce acorns The
white oak is so called because it has a
rather white bark; while the black
oaks bark is quite dark, black to all
intents and purposes during the wood
age" Live oak was always preferred
for shipbuilding and for heavy duty,
but just why it was named 'Ive" is a
matter of doubt.
At one time the island Of Nan.ucke,
was covered with live oaks, but the
land was denuded Of this timber years
ago during the whaling activities when
several shipbuilding yards f1ourished
on the island and great fleet of whaL
ers was built there.
