. Handbook of the trees of the northern states and Canada east of the Rocky Mountains, photo-descriptive . Trees. Handbook of Trees of the iNToETHEiEisr States and Canada. 33 This rare tree is confined to the Blue Ridge of the Allegheny Mts., ranging in altitude from about 2000 to 3500 ft., in company with the common Hemlock. White Pine, various Oaks, Hickories, Sugar Maple, Sour-wood, Silver- bell Tree, etc., or occasionally forming quite exchisive groves. It rarely exceeds 70 ft. in height or 2 ft. in diameter of trunk, and has rather compact pyramidal top and dark fur- rowed bark of trunk. It is so often confined to steep and almost inaccessible crags with roots intertwined among the rocks that we are led to infer that it alone is capable of maintain- ing a foothold in such localities, and that the other trees of the forest must have crowded it out from places of easier footing. It is a tree well worthy of ornamental planting for which it is occasionallj' employed. Its wood is verj' similar to that of the com- mon Hemlock, a cu. ft. weighing 26.64 lbs., and applicable to the same uses though not abundant . enough to be of commercial im- portance.! Leaves flat, linear. V.t-% in. long, petiolate. obtuse and often retuse at apex, lustrous dark green and with conspicuous central groove above, marked with wliite bands of 7 or 8 rows of stomata on each side of the midrib beneath and forming a flattish spray but not as flat as that of the T. canadensis. Flowers: staminate purplish ; pistillate purple with broad ovate bracts about as long as the scales. Cones oblong, 1-11/^ in. long with short stalks and oblong obtuse fine but scarcely woody puberulous scales widely spreading at maturity and ample bracts about half as long as scales ; seeds about one-sixth in. long with large wing broadest near the base. 1.
