This picture of a rocky New England pasture is printed chiefly for the benefit of our western 
readers. Many of them never saw a large rock. Sheep do well on these pastures. The grass is 
rich and strong for the rocks are rich in potash. And notice how the old tree has split the rock. 
It probably started as a seedling growing in a tiny crack. Yet see the growth it has developed, 
a mighty power which has split the rock in two. See how the root and trunk have 
grasped the rock with crushing force. What peaches and apples they grow on this kind of soil!
