Forage Trees: Forests are the perpetual source of wood and other tree crops. Watersheds covered with trees collect and regulate the flow of water necessary for domestic use, industries, power, and irrigation. Forested areas provide outdoor recreation, homes for wildlife and fish, and forage trees for livestock and game.
In a rustic garden the trees should be fruit trees wherever possible, or at least blossom trees of some kind. Apples, pears, plums, and cherries will all help to create the right atmosphere, as will nut trees such as hazel or almond. If there is space for a large tree, a Walnut might do.
AT SNAKE, snak, the common name of of five moderately large species of the genus he in the United States, particularly the va-
rious races of E. obsoleta. The black rat snake, known also as the pilot snake, may reach a length slightly exceeding eight feet. Rat snakes forage trees in trees or on the ground, where they prey on the smaller rodents or occasionally on birds, principally nestlings, killing them by constriction. They also eat eggs, and sometimes consume the eggs or chicks of domestic poultry. |
