We have now a shoot with a woody axis, and a distinct pith and bark ; and of a more or less conical figure. At the axilla of every leaf a bud had been generated during the growth of the...
Página 505 - RO muoh of late from reckless cutting, that attempts are now being made to replant, partly in the mountains, and partly in the Steppes. It is estimated that of the total area of Turkestan (162,000,000 acres), the territory has but 945,000 acres of forest land in the mountains, and nearly 16,000,000 acres of bushland in the Steppes.

It is only by an arrangement similar to one of those above briefly sketched that a permanent annual yield of a particular class of produce can be assured, and that the forest can be secured against the risk of gradual extinction.
