MUSSER BEAUTY OF LOCAL WOODLANDS AT ZENITH October is the month for painted le- aves and nowhere does nature exhibit a more gorgeous array of abundant colorg than in the forests of Pennsyl- vania. Her 110 different trees and near- ly 175 varieties of native woody shrubs offer the utmost in variety to the pan- olpy of color that characterizes Penn's Woods. The popular impression that the col- or of leaves in autumn are dependant upon frosts is not entirely sustained. Careful observation in connection with studies conducted by the Pennsylvania Department of Foregts and Waters, have shown that the brilliant colors are largely due to the character of the preceding summer rather than the frosts of autumn. If the summer has been a rainy one, keeping the leaves plump and full of sap and the leaf skin thick, and distended, the autumn tints are brilliant, providing the fall of the year is dry. For this reason it is | engraving, mechanical dentistry and predicted that this autumn’s color pa- | similar occupational work continued geant will be particularly fine. without interruption and as a result, “Autumn coloration is peculiar to the | sixty-two disabled psrsons received fi- forests of the northeastern United | nancial aid from the bureau during States,” Dr. Joseph J.
