Weekly Tree Talk

Oak Is Chief Tree Target During
Lightning Storm
A large oak tree came into flower
this spring and the leaves unfold
ed on schedule. Suddenly the tree
died
Dead leaves and flowers were
still clinging to the twigs when
Don CantwelI, District Manager of
the Bartlett Tree Expert Co, per-
formed an autopsy. His verdict:
Death by electrocution. The tree
had been killed by lightning which
coursed through vital tissues lying
beneath the inner bark.
A tree may die any time from "a
hours to six months or more after
it has been hit by lightning. Not all
bolts chatter a tree. Like. the oak
this spring, lightning may kill the
cambium tissue, or the roots. Or 1t
may loosen the bark which then
dries out Lightning injury can
take many forms.
Every year lightning takes toll
of 800 lives in the U. S. Countless
thousands of trees are killed and
damaged.
No tree is safe refuge during a
lightning storm. An oak is the un-
safest of all. In Britain nearly half
the deaths of persons struck by
lightning last year occurred while
they sought shelter under an oak
tree.
After the oak, the elm, pine, ash,
poplar, and maple follow in that
order of lightning susceptibility.
The beech seems the least sus-
ceptibIe of ALL
Lawn trees, street trees and
those growing near the edge of a
woods are more apt to be struck
than those in a dense woodlot.
Sometimes the lightning surge
travels up from the ground
Tree cans be turned into giant
lightning rods that will protect
both the tree and surrounding
area. A loosely woven copper con-
ductor is extended from the tree
top down the forks along the trunk
and grounded deep in the soil be-
yond the branch spread. A bolt
hitting such a tree is carried harm
lessly to the ground.

often follows an acute infection
such as tonsillitis. The early symp-
toms are fatigue and tendency to
bleed more easily than normal.
There may be bleeding of the
gums, tiny hemorrhages under the
skin or larger black and blue
spots. Sometimes bleeding into the
intestinal tract producing black
tarry stools may be an early sign.
Lymph glands swell in the pa

glands in the neck, under the arms

Eye Cancer

Eye cancers in children usually
occur before the age of four years.
Usually one eye is involved but
sometimes both eyes are affected.
The very first sign is widening
of the pupil in one eye resembling
a squint. Later, the eye assumes
a pearly CLINT, which doctors call
the white reflex" and layman call
eats eye." These eye cancers are
one of the most durable tumors of
childhood. The earlier the diagno-
sis, the smaller the tumor, the
greater the prospects of cure and
conservation of sight.
Tumors of the brain vary a great
deal depending upon their location.
The earliest signs of such tumors
are blurred sight or seeing double,

CANCER is RARE in children
and yet it occurs more often than

However, because of the serious
nature of this disease cancer kills
more children every year than any

responsible for more child deaths
than cancer.
