Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arboreal Man IT is a strangely difficult thing, for one Of our generation, to picture the acuteness of the upheaval brought about in 1859 by the publication of the Origin of Species. It is hard to realize that there should have been so much novelty in the ideas expressed in the book that thought should have been overwhelmed by the new teaching; that evolution should have become a creed; and that special creation should have become an obsession. So many suggestions had gone forth before, so much of the path had been paved for evolution, that it seems strange how the basal idea that species were not specially created, and definitely fixed types of life, should have suddenly, as a flame, lit up the fires of the most bitter controversy carried on in modern times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man, the Tiger, and the Snake There is an old Laos folktale of a hunter who rescued from death a man, a tiger, and a snake, each in turn naturally professing gratitude and in turn pledging aid should the hunter ever need it. Now, it so happened, that need befell the hunter, and not being Anglo-Saxon, and consequently not convulsed with squeamishness at the idea of cashing in on favors previously rendered, he went forth without hesitation and quoted to those whom he had befriended - provided, of course, that he understood classical Sanskrit, which he probably didn't - the following verse from the Hitopudesa: "That friend only is the true one who is by when trouble comes; Words are air; a deed talks louder than a solo played on drums." Interesting, the working out of that legend, inscribed in ancient temple books and told from immemorial times about the camp fires of obscure tribes in the neglected hinterland bordering India, Cochin-China, and Siam.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cave Man: A Play of the Redwoods The Grove, Play of the Bohemian Club is the outgrowth of an illuminated spectacle produced annually among redwood trees in California. In The Man in the Forest, at the Midsummer Jinks of 1902, this spectacle first became a play, the text being the work of one author and the music the work of one composer. Since then, the music drama has been steadily elaborated. Yet it has been the aim, excepting the play of Montezuma to produce a play inherently of the forest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Battle of Life: And the Haunted Man Heaven keep us from a knowledge of the sights the moon beheld upon that field, when, coming up above the black line of distant rising-ground, softened and blurred at the edge by trees, she rose into the sky and looked upon the plain, strewn with upturned faces that had once at mothers' breasts sought mothers' eyes, or slumbered happily. Heaven keep us from a knowledge of the secrets whispered afterwards upon the tainted wind that blew across the scene of that day's work and that night's death and suffering! Many a lonely moon was bright upon the battle-ground, and many a star kept mournful watch upon it, and many a wind from every quarter of the earth blew over it, before the traces of the fight were worn away. They lurked and lingered for a long time, but survived in little things, for Nature, far above the evil passions of men, soon recovered Her serenity, and smiled upon the guilty battle-ground as she had done before, when it was innocent.

Download or read book Woodpeckers in Relation to Trees and Wood Products Classic Reprint written by Waldo Lee Mcatee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woodpeckers in Relation to Trees and Wood Products Woodpeckers are peculiarly dependent upon trees, which furnish them food, shelter, and cradles for their young. No birds are more highly specialized nor more perfectly adapted to a particular mode of life than are most woodpeckers to arboreal existence. Moreover, as trees are important to woodpeckers, so are these birds important to trees. Woodpeckers benefit trees by consuming many of the most destructive forest pests, insects largely inaccessible to other birds. In securing these insects, however, which constitute the bulk of their food, and in making nests and shelter cavities, woodpeckers have another significant economic relation to trees, for they remove bark and wood from both dead and living trees. In the case of dead trees little or no harm is done. When, however, they make excavations in living trees, the birds destroy more or less of the cambium layer, from which proceeds the growth of both wood and bark. Slight injuries to the cambium result in distorted growth, but the destruction of large areas may cause death. Since trees are exceedingly valuable to man, the habits Of birds whose relations to trees are so vital are Of much economlc Importance. It is the purpose of this bulletin to examine the evidence for and against woodpeckers and to determine their status according to the effect Of their habits upon trees and wood products. Injuries by woodpeckers are treated under two heads: (1) Damage by wood peckers in general; (2) injuries due almost exclusively to the three species properly known as sapsuckers.
