Forest fires complete the devastation. When this quartette of magnificent trees is stripped from our mountains, but a ruin will remain, and the plains will be doomed.
FOUR COAST PINES Another interesting group, or rather, line of trees, is the quartette of shore pines stretching from the sand dunces of San Diego (o the glacier beds of Alaska, ~and which have been characterized as "the quartette of fight- ing, storm-beaten, but successful heroes bat- tling their way down to the foam-flecked sea.
... " Most of the population of California reside in or near 'the coast cities, and may readily meet with these pines and make their ac- quaintance. The curious can not help being (30) interested in their determined seizure of the ocean-blown sands, century after century, and their individually different implements or armor, with which they have learned to equip themselves for resisting the fury of the ocean gales.
Examination reveals the curious fact that the southernmost of the line, the one in the semi-tropic latitude of San Diego, is the most limited in area of occupation and in the num- ber of trees, and that it has the largest cones, with the largest seeds ; the leaves are the largest, the longest, and they have the great- est number in the fascicle; grading down in several respects through species after species, the last one being the little dwarf pine, with minute organs, condensed for the fight along the Arctic shore of Alaska.
