Touch on Trees •'
A concrete -filled cavity in an'old
apple or sycamore tree is just a• hole'
filled with concrete. ' It may appear
neat to the sylvicultural eye, but it
puts 'an end to the mystery which is
the rightful heritage of every hollow
tree. 'It may prolong the life of the
tree, but it spells death to the life
e
that would normally go on in the tree.
For the natural history of a hollow
tree is a rich and varied story. First,
perhaps, a little borer cut a tiny hole
into the sapwood. Then came a wood-
pecker, hammering away at the wood,
enlarging the hole and removing the
juicy.woi'm. ' And then the •rain, soft-
ened the wood about the hole; and,
r.rhaps, another woodpecker, enlarg-
ing the cavity, cutting It out- to pro-
vide a home for his springing, family.
A bluebird or a screech owl may find
it next, hiding comfortably away from
wind and snow in its recesses; and a
squirrel may follow, storing it full of
hickory nuts or, if it be big enough,
bringing up his own family in its
warm depths. Or perhaps mice estab-
lished themselves there; for wood
mice are great tree climbers. And,
finally, some moonlight night, a coon
or a possum nosed his way into it,
scuffed out the squirrel and mice
trash and set up housekeeping, It is
a big hole now, but not too big, should
the coon or possum have bad luck;
with the farmer's dogs, to accommo-
date comfortably a pair of the great
horned awls which we I 0 often hear
and so seldom see, which lay their
eggs in hollow trees when tin; snow is

family cares before most •smaller birds
have built their nests.
Every hollow tree ice a story of
'its own; every cavity in the woods is;
worth investigating. And this Is the
safest time' of year for such re-,
searches, for even if the tree turn out
to be a bee tree there will be no worse
result than sticky fingers.
