Oh well that old sugar maple. Ive always known about that tree. Each person has a natural knowledge of trees around which to accumulate more. The characters to note in studying trees are' leayes fruits bark buds leaf scars and tree form. 'I o know 1 tree .1 n imc is the beginning of the acquaintance. John Muir advises man to ieek the companionship of trees to learn how they live 1nd bchave in pLll'Q wildness to see them in their varying aspects through the seasons ind weather rejoicing in the great storms putting forth their new leaves and flowers when all the streams are in flood and the birds singing and sending away their seeds in the thoughful Indian Summer-when all the landscape is glowing in deep calm enthusiasm for this you must love them and live with them as free from schemes and care and time as the trees themselves.
