PLATE 5 
A. —Douglas fir, 16 years old, which has been producing seed since its fourteenth 
year. Photographed on Rainier National Forest on East Canyon Creek, 1914. 
B. —A clump of reproduction which escaped a 1910 fire (Upper Cispus, Rainier 
National Forest). The white pine, bearing seven cones, was 15 years old. Photo¬ 
graphed in 1914. 
C. —A clump of true firs which escaped all fires, surrounded by a small area of 
reproduction which resulted from 1875 ^ re > but was injured, and some of it destroyed 
by subsequent fires, notably that of 1892. Photographed in Rainier National Forest, 
1914. 
D. —A barren waste left where the fire of 1892 followed the fire of 1875. A striking 
illustration of the iimit of seeding distance of green timber into an open bum. The 
camera station is well beyond the farthest wind-cast seed. Seedlings from such seed 
were not encountered until within 5 chains of the timber shown. Photographed in 
Rainier National Forest, 1914.
