Kvery >ear at this time we revel In the beaut) ur the trees, knowing well that it Is only a (looting pleasure. Helton long the leaves will flutter away from their summer home and become I a part of that rich carpet (hat covers 'the forest tloor. Many people suppose that Jack Frost Is responsible for the leaves j i hanging color, but he Is not. Some of the leaves begin to turn before we have any frosts. The Indians hud a tuutastic Idea it was because the celestial hunters hud slain tho Groat Hear and his blood dripping on tho forests changed many trees to red. Other trees were turned yellow by tho fat which spattered out of the kettle as the hunters cooked the meat. In reality, however, tho change in coloring is the result of chemical processes which take place in the tree. The change Is a preparation for winter. All during the spring and summer tho leaves have served as factories, where the foods necessary for the trees' growth have been manufactured. This food making takes place in numberless tiny cells of the leaves and Is carried on by small green bodies which give the leaf its color. These chlorophyll bodies, as they are called, make the food of the tree by combining carbon taken from the carbonic acid gas of the air with hydrogen, oxygen and various minerals supplied by the water which the roots gather. In the fall when the cool weather causes a slowing down of the vital processes, the work of the leaves comes to an end. The machinery of the leaf factory is dismantled. so to speak, the chlorophyl Is broken up into the various substances .if which it is composed, and whatever food there is on hand is sent to the body of the tree to be stored up for use in the spring. All that remains in the cell cavities of the leaf is a watery substance in which a fewoil globules and crystals, and a small number of yellow, strongly rofrective bodies can be seen. These give the b-aves the yellow colorings so familiar in the autumnal foliage. It often happens that there is more 'sugar In the leaf that can readily be j transferred back to the tree. When this is the case, the chemical combiduces many colored tints varying from the brilliant red of the dogwood to the astere red-browns of the oak. In coniferous trees which do not lose their foliage in the fall, the green coloring matter takes on a slightly brownish tinge, which gives away to the lighter color in the spring. While the leaf is changing, other preparations are being made. At the point where the stem of the leaf is attached to the tree, a special layer of cells develops which gradually severs the tissues that support the leaf. At the same time Nature heals the (lit. so that when the leaf is 11nally blown olT by the wind or falls from Its own weight, the place where it grew on the twig is marked by a sea r. The shedding of the leaves Is another of Nature's wise provisions for the winter. The broadleaf trees of the north shed their leaves so that their branches will more easily bear the winter's burden of snow and Ice. For this reason some broadleaf trees that shed their leaves in the north are practically evergreen in the southern states. The conifers ? pines, spruces, cedars, firs and hemlocks have no dgtoiite time for leaf shedding Their leaves are either needle or scalelike, and their form is better adapted for shedding snow than that of the broadleaf trees. Although tho food which has been prepared in tlx1 cell cavities is sent back to the tree, the mineral subI stance- with which the walls of the cells have become impregnated dur; jng the summer months are retained j Accordingly when the leaves fall they : contain relatively large amounts of valuable elements, such its nitrogen and phosphorous, which were originally a part of the soil The decomposition of the leaves results in enriching the top layers results in enreturning these clement.- and by tile aec.umulati"n of humus That is why the mellow t-iaek earth from the forest floor i- -?> fertile Hut If fires are allowed to run through tho forest iml tie- bav.s are burned, the most 1 .-.iluabb i.:' the fertilizing elements i ire chan-ed by the heat into gases land escape into the air As a result, 'forests which are burned over regu* larly soon lose their soil fertility even if no apparent damage Is done to the standing timber A fascinating experiment for those who are interested in trees Is the j^ii. i ; WEEKLY aUl' "T!M =="*?;?.

Federal Aid For State's Wildlife j The congress bus passed and I he President han signed a hill authorizing federal aid to siutes In a wlldllfo restoration program. Approximately three million dollars are collected as an excise tax on sporting arms and ammunitions and the hill provides the use of these dollars In a nation wide game restoration movement Thus the fund Is raised without any additional taxes. The state will participate In the fund according to area and state .hunting license sales, but W state will receive more than $150,000 nor less than $15,000. Based on hist year's sales and the prospect for this year, South Carolina can expect to receive about $45,000 annually if It meets certain stipulated conditions of the act. I As this fund is actually paid in by the hunters themselves, tho bill provides that every state to receive ltB share must have a state law stipulating all of the monies paid by sportsmen in the form of state licenses must be used for game and fish purposes by tne siaie department, it is necessary that all of the sportsmen's dollars be used for gamo and fish propagation, replenishing and protection. The present state law provides that a percentage of the county's license money may be diverted by the county delegation to purposes other than game and fish. Unless this ancient provision is amended so as to allow ' all license money bo used for gam., land Hah purposes, South Carolina can I not (iiialify in thin provialon for It s I participation in this fund, which dI claroH that a state law must "inc lud.| a prohibition agulnst the diversion of license fees paid by hunters." Tim amounts sometimes diverted is very small compared to the $45,0<>i> of new. outside money available each year lot wildlife restoration in South Carolina The allotment of the fund would find South Carolina receiving approxi mutely 40 cents for each square mil. of area, and slightly more than 2.1 cents for each hunting license sold. The state has more than thirty thousand square miles of territory, and win sell better than seventy-live thousand licenses. This will make the state's share about $45,000. I The state must do its share and will cooperate with the federal government by providing one-fourth of the fund. If South Carolina would follow the federal government and use its own state excise tax on arms and ammunitions to meet this proportion, I the fund could be raised easily without additional levies. I Hunters should bestir themselves, and after becoming familiar with the .provisions of tho federal act, contact their own county legislative representatives and apprise them of the need of this state and their county in participating in the distribution of this money. The act, signed by the President September 2, takes effect July 1, 1 JS. I making of leaf prints. This can be I done in the following manner: Mix oil paints to match the colors of the leaf you want to print. Apply these colors to the under side of the leaf, copying the exact colors from the brighter, upper side. The work must be done swiftly so that the first colors j put on will not dry before the last are I applied. Then place the vein or painted side down, on a sheet of white paper with another sheet of paper placed on top of it. Hold the leaf immovable and rub it hard with the fingers. When the upper sheet of paper and the leaf are removed there will remain a copy of the form and colors of the original ieaf. Rlack and white leaf prints can be made by using ink instead of paint. These, of course, will not be as beautiful as i .those made in colors. A scrap book 'of Teaf prints with the names and descriptions of the parent trees will make an interesting volume for any boy or girl to own?Monroe Enquirer. WE INVITE ?OU?
