THE AUSTRIAN PINE IQI 



crows, owls, etc., spend much time in its branches, 

 which shelter them from the cold winds.) 



As a summing up of many facts discovered in

 their pleasant acquaintance with it, a collection 

 of the following may be mounted on stiff card- 

 board: A pair of green leaves, a pointed bud, a 

 round flat bud, an open clustered bud, cones of 

 one, two, and three seasons' growth (the cone 

 of two seasons will need to be varnished to keep 

 it from opening), a cone scale, two seeds, a bare 

 twig, a twig with leaves, cross and vertical sections 

 of the wood.
