growth until they are $50 to 800
years of age. Some of them live
600 years or more.
The fiat narrow leaves are a shiny
dark green above, light green below
The early spring foliage is a dainty
light yellow-green, contrasting har-
moniously with the darker green of
previous years. The leaves remain
on the tree for two or three years.
Though the tree is an evergreen, it
is always in the act of changing
some of its old clothes.
We are using such tremendous
amount of lumber these days that
we are drawing heavily upon the
Eastern hemlock. The light. buff,
soft, coarse-grained wood is needed
for boxing, Grating, general con-
Struction and mechanical pulp for
the manufacture of paper. Hemlock
also possesses the power to hold
nails and spikes, so 1t is used for
railroad ties. The cut in 1885
amounted to 2a7 ABS 900 board feet.
Hemlocks rank high among the
coniferous evergreens for back
ground paintings as we'll as for orna-
mental purposes. They do not ap-
peal greatly to insect and fungus
pests, but ground fires and severe
winds are their worst foes.

BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

To appreciate hemlocks. you
should see them growing in wide
open places or at the edge of a
forest. Here they have sunlight in
abundance and room to spread out.
These trees may reach a height of
rs to 160 feet with a diameter of
feet or more.
Eastern hemlocks love the cool,
moist slopes of the forest and open
country, as well as the fertile val
leys to be found throughout the
Northeastern States from northern
Maine to northeastern Minnesota,
south through Wisconsin, southern
Michigan and Indiana and south
ward along the mountains from
Pennsylvania and West Virginia
into northern Alabama and Georgia.
Thus you can see what a long
range this fine tree has established.
During the first part of May, each
tree bears the two types of flowers,
to be found on the twigs of the
previous year. The male blossoms
are small, yellow and rather round,
and they are in the axis of where
last years leaves were growing,
The female flowers are erect and of

Conservation of Paper

Every citizen is called upon to

Sifted over them from the male

They will forsake the upright posi-

ways. There are about 100000 of
these seeds in pound, and in spite
of the number of seeds produced
annually, hemlocks are not heavily
reproduced. The seedlings cannot
stand strong light, and must fall
where there is shade and moist
ground in order to get a foothold
in their early youth.
Hemlocks are rather sloW-growing
