TUESDAY, AUGUST 4, PLANTS AND TREES OF MILLION YEARS AGO Exhiaustive lnvestigation Made by Usited States Geological Survey. Washington, Aug. 4.—By a count of the annual rings in the trunk of one of the giant sequoias of Califor- nit, it has been ascertained that near- 1y 3,000 years, or the major portion of recorded human history, has passed across the stage since that tree was a seedling. But long as its period seems when gauged by human achievement it is a fraction of time almost too small to be measured when compared with the remote geologic age during which certain of the ancestors of the Cal- ifornian glant tree were living along our Atlantic coast. The ancient veg- etation which grew in South Carolina and Georgia during Upper Cretaceous and Eocene time, or, as geologists state, at least several million years ago, has been made the subject of an exhaustive investigation by the United States Geological Survey The earlier of these fossil floras, that of the Upper Cretaceous, em- braces nearly a hundred species of wholly extinct plants, and as the ma- jority of them are believed to have been trees or shrubs it is interest- ing to compare them with the veg- etation now living in the same area. Other Ancient Pines, In addition to the sequoia or *“big tree,” now confined to the Pagific coast, there are three kinds of Arau- carias or Norfolk Island pines, which at the present time live only in South America and Australia; a pine with the leaves in clusters of three as in the living pitch pine, and a number of cypresslike trees which were once widely spread over the world, but are now extinct. There was also a fan palm with very large leaves, which was perhaps the remote ancestor of the palmetto. Among the deciduous trees there were wax berries (Myrica) of two kinds, walnuts, many willows with long, narrow leaves, oaks of the type of the living black oak, fig trees of many kinds and several magnolits. Among the smaller trees of shrubs there were soap berries (sapindus), bittersweet, sumac, laurels and cin- ramons nearest to forms now confined to the Old World, and three kinds of eucalyptus, the living representa- tives of which are now native to Aus- tralia. The remote ancestors of the persimmon were also présent, as well as a number of other Kinds that are without vernacular names. Sea Extended Inland. rom the careful study of this an- cient flora which has been preserved in fossil form in the rocks it has been possible to draw certain tentative though apparently ‘reasonable concly- sions as to the conditions which pr: ‘vdiled in South Carolina and Georgia when it was growing. These indi- cate that shallow seas extended in- land over 100 miles from the present Atlantic coast; that there was a con- siderable elevation and relief of the Piledmont area to the west; that the river gradients were high and the streams numerous and more or less terrential in character; and that there were swamps along the lower courses of the streams. The fossil plants indicate that there was a mild though not a strictly trop- ical climate, without marked season- al changes; in fact there Is no evi- dence that frost occurred. The rain- tall was abundant, as shown by the general character of the flora, as well as by certain features observed on some of the leaves and known as the aripping points.” Only Seventeen Species. The later or Eoncenc flora has been found only in the state of Georgia and is relatively small, as it num- bers only seventeen species. All the species represent northward migrants along the Eocene seacoast from equatorial America. They in- clude West Indian palms, plants of the wonderful mangrove swamps that ' skirt the tidal shores in the tropics of both hemispheres and remains of the golden fern, whose present day de- scendents lead a gregarious exis- tence in the torrid zoné. All these Hocene plants aré types of the Florida keys, Antil- lean islands and Central American shores and clearly indicate that in Middle Eocene time the Georgia was much warmer than it was either during the Upper Creta- ceous epoch or at present.

As Mlle. Tene’ Ment is by this time in such a state of collapse that she can answer- no -questions it is de- cided to put her son on the stand. Procurator Klett discovers that her offspring, Master Wisk, was exiled from Berlin seventeen years ago for failure to pay his personal tax, and uvses this in an attempt to discredit the witness. “Weren’t’ you exiled from Berlin in 1897 for not paying your lawful taxes?"” Maitre McDonough: “A thousand pardons, ten thousand pardons, but what has that got to do with tene- ment house conditions?” Procurator: “Nothing, mand to know.
