MAI m - MM Bp KNIT SUITS BROKEN SIZES WEDDING DRESSES k Price 22 SOUTH CENTRAL PHONE 2-8168 Rare Siskiyou Cypress Grows Only in Oregon About eight miles east and a little south of Oregon Caves, in a small and rugged region dom inated by a mountain called Steve Peak, there grows a tree that should be of special interest to all of us who reside in the Siskiyou area. It is Siskiyou cypress (Cupressus Bakeri), a tree that is attractive as well as very fragrant and very rare. It is a true native product of the Siskiyous, having been found only in these mountains, and only in a few widely scattered stands. Siskiyou cypress is a rather small tree, an exceptionally large specimen reaching a height of 75 or 80 feet and a diameter of about twenty inches. It is slender throughout and the branches are usually densely clothed in very slender foliage-covered twigs. The scale-like leaves lie close against the twig in four ranks, giving to the twig a squarish, braided appearance. The foliage is a pleasing gray-green and each tiny leaf-scale bears on its back a conspicuous gland filled with pleasantly strong-smelling, sticky I resin. Bark Thin I The thin bark of our cypress I is grayish with a suggestion of red, remindful of the bark of ! cherry. The fruit is a berry-like j cone about a half-inch in diam- eter at maturity and roughly ( spherical in shape. There are six or seven scales to a" cone, the j outer plate-like ends forming the ! surface of the sphere. A small : projection is borne on the sur- : face of each scale. These cones i very much resemble those of Port Orford Cedar in general appearance. Siskiyou cypress was, not so very long ago, thought to belong to an altogether different species; but, thanks to a persist ent worker named Matthews, it has been properly recognized, and a part of its name was given in his honor. The tree's some what cumbersome but complete scientific moniker is cupressus Bakeri, subspecies Matthewsii.

Due to the fact that it is not readily accessible, most of us are even unaware of its exist ence, but there is every reason to believe that it would make an admirable ornamental and one that could be enjoyed in regions considerably farther north than the tree's natural habitat. It is hardier than most cypresses, in its high rugged environment growing on the bare open ridges, withstanding I alike the heat and drought of ' summer and the freezing tem-1 peratures and often ice-filled , ground of winter. As dwellers in or adjacent to the Siskiyous, we can proudly and truthfully say that, like the lovely weeping spruce, the Sis kiyou cypress is one of our very own.
