Text Appearing Before Image:
A. Pistillate flower B. Staminate flower THE HACKBERRY (Cehis occidental) The leaf has three midribs instead of one, and many swollen, reticulated veins. Note the wide-spreading stigmas ofthe solitary axillary fertile flowers. The staminate flowers cluster at the base of the twig. The sweet, i-seeded berries ripen tod.irk purple in late September and hang all winter, to the delight of the birds. Strange, warty excrescences are on the bark oftrunks and limbs. The second trunk is of the smaller species, Celtis Mississippicnsis. The third is var. reticulata of the latter species
Text Appearing After Image:
THE RED MULBERRY (Moruz rubra) A rnlhlf °r7rUnkf SU.StaInS, a h™d cr7n of ascending limbs with zigzag twigs. The leaves are bluish green and thin. A complex system of ribs and veinlets make a prominent network of the leaf linings, and roughen the upper surfaces. The berries are purple and pleasantly sweet 6 PP surraces. ine The Mulberries the Osage Orange and the Figs able in a new colony—made up of gentlemen. A Frenchman,reporting the abundance of these trees, mentions some so largethat one tree contains as many leaves as will feed Silke-wormesthat will make as much silk as may be worth five pounds sterlingmoney. But their sanguine hopes were not realised. The redmulberry is no substitute for the white species. Silk culture isstill an Old World industry, even though white mulberries growin this country. Indians discovered that ropes and a coarse cloth could bewoven out of the bast fibre of mulberry bark. The berries havesome medicinal properties, and are eagerly devoured by hogs
