Live oaks are charming ever
greens that reach q height of so to

ern trees, the most romantic in ap-

native trees in the South for plant
ing along roadways and in cities.
You will find the most perfect speci-

and on the coast from Virginia to

In dry, sandy soil near the coast
the live oak grows to suit itself. Its
thick trunk and horizontal limbs
OF great length contrive to accom-
plish a low, spreading dome. From
a distance you are reminded Of an
ancient apple tree.
The leaves are evergreen, leathery

inches long, dark green above, paler
underneath, and toward the spring
q brownish yellow, which is lust
before they tumble to the ground,
making room for the new leaves
that come along and mingle with
the older ones.
The flowers arrive in March and
April, the staminate ones in hairy
catkins and the pistillate ones three
to five lowered, on long spikes with
bright red stigmas.
The acorns mature each year and
are brown in color. They are
stalked, pointed, about one inch in
length and seated in q thin cup
that tapers toward the base. This
fruit is sweet and eagerly sought by
the animals which know Of its
flavor.
The wood of the live oak is light
brown or yellow, with a sap wood

he is.
Rocksie, owned by Miss Mar
garet Cotter, of Washington,
needs no introduction to the
followers Of the sport of show
ing horses or to the hunting gentry
of nearby Maryland and Virginia.
Nor is it necessary to go through
the records and relate instances
OF his many magnificent perform
anceS. Those who ardently follow
the activities of the show ring
circuit have already registered
them in their minds, so there is
no need to jot down recollectionS.
SUPER-HORSEFLESH
Like all of his other exhibitions
in the ring, Rocksie'S perform
ance at the Presidents party
showed the consistency and &C.
-curacy of which that grand
jumper is capable. While his
owner, Miss Cotter, fits him
nicely, and undoubtedly knows all
of his little habits, doing a good
job of rating him into the jumps,
RockSie proves that he possesses
the true steel of a noble horse by
performing well with different
riders. No matter who is at the
end of his reinS nor what weight
is on his back, RockSie takes all
obstacles with the intelligence of
super-horsefleSh.
GLASS"
When Miss Cotter's father, who
is a good1SiZed man, rides this
sterling jumper in the ring, the
performances register the same
high caliber Of gamenesS, intelli-
gence and generosity.
This horse is something more
than an animal. He has a dis
tinct personality that takes him
out of the common "up-and-over'
class of hurdlers, setting him
apart as a courageous and noble
gentleman of Tan Bark. His ex,
quisite manners, his grace and
bearing command the use of the
horseman's term, "claSs." Wheth,
er it be draft, show ring or race
horse, this term sets the breed
apart, for they have something
which only the truly grea
possess.
When this characteristic stands
out in a horse, it goes straight to
the heart of the horseman who
loves and understands the true
value of his gallantry and sub
stance.
| So to you, Rocksie, this article
is dedicated, for it is meant to ex
press the full appreciation OF
your beauty and grace, your many
good qualities and the realization
that you are a truly great horse
