Figs. 1 and 2.— Views taken on opposite sides of a road in Jasper County, S. C. One side is 
burned over nearly every year, while the other is protected by a near-by farmstead and two 
roadways; the contrast in development and growth is probably representative for the whole 
longleaf pine belt. A count in the burned stand revealed the fact that the last fire had killed 
just one-third of the total number of trees, as shown by the white tags. 
EVERY FIRE TAKES ITS TOLL.
