WI1Y
ME PRAIRIES ARE
TREELESS.
It is inipossthle to soy what the
texact causes ere which operating for
eeatilries have produced this result
(lack oil trees on the prairie) but it
is generally thought by those who
have given some attention to the
Subject, that a large part of what is
now prairie was not originally so; In
fact there is direct evidence to show
that et least some districts which
are now treeiess were originally well
thtibered, Undoubtedly the chief
agency which little by little, has,
caused the prairie to encroach on the
timbered area is the frequently re-
eurring prairie fire. It is web lcnown
to those familiar with the country
that if fires are kept out of a dis-
trict for a nuinber of years, small
bluffs of poplar spring up all around
the sloughs and low places, which if
not disturbed gradually extend till
eventually a formerly treeless dis-
trict becomes web timbered. From
this it would seem that had fires not
been so prevelant in the past, the
timbered areas would be Much more
extensive than they are at present.
The fact still r•ein•ains, however, that
there are immense tracts of land'ab-
solutely treeless which can only be
utilized to their fullest advantage
after ci certain measure of protection
is afforded by the presence of bests
or plantations of trees.—Norman M.
