Trees
 
Trees just stand around all day,
     and sun themselves and rest.
They never walk or run away,
     and surely that is best.
For otherwise, how would a
     squirrel or robin find its nest?

According to school tradition, for a period of more than 100 years in the 18th and 19th centuries, the prestigious Yale University (at the time a college) of New Haven, Connecticut, United States of America, served its students the same supper every night: apple pie.
 
A city slicker was driving through the country. He stopped at an orchard and asked the owner how much his apples were. “All you can pick for one dollar,” said the orchard’s owner. “All right,” said the city slicker. “I’ll take two dollars’ worth.”

The energy from about fifty apple tree leaves is needed to produce one apple. The apples harvested from an average tree can fill 20 bushel-size boxes that weigh 42 pounds each. A bushel of apples will yield 20 to 24 quarts of applesauce. About 36 apples make a gallon of apple cider. Two pounds of apples go into one 9-inch apple pie.
 
Daniel: If it took six pigs two hours to eat the apples in an orchard, how many hours would it take three pigs to do the same thing?
Samuel: None, because the six pigs have already eaten them all.

Apple trees can grow to be more than 12 meters (40 feet) tall, so orchard owners must buy or rent equipment that can reach those heights at harvest-time. To avoid the cost and complications that come with the equipment, apple orchard owners are starting to grow dwarf apple trees. Their shorter heights make it easier to prune the branches and harvest the apples. The moral of the story is that taller is not always better - often shorter is.

An Apple A Day
 
An apple a day
     Sends the doctor away.
 
Apple in the morning,
     Doctors take warning.
 
Roast apple at night,
     Starves the doctor outright.
 
Eat an apple on going to bed,
     So the doctor can’t earn his bread.
 
An apple each day, seven days a week,
     Rosy apple, rosy cheek.

​What are apple peels good for? The peels are a source of substances called ‘antioxidants.’ Antioxidants can help reduce the type of damage to cells that triggers some diseases. An average person’s daily requirement for fiber is 25 grams, and one apple has about five grams of fiber, two-thirds of which is found in the peel. Apples are a good source of the soluble fiber called pectin, which can help lower cholesterol levels.

The apple is commonly known as the supposed forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden. But contrary to this erroneous belief, there is no mention of the apple as the forbidden fruit in “The Bible.” The forbidden fruit mentioned in “The Bible” is referred to as the “fruit from the Tree of Knowledge,” with no specification as to which kind of fruit. It was Hugo Van Der Goes who first implicated the apple as the forbidden fruit in C.E. 1470 in his painting, “The Fall of Man.” After that, it became popular to depict the apple as the forbidden fruit. So, the apple is not the fruit that got Adam and Eve into trouble with God. People can confidently eat an apple without worrying that they are committing a transgression.
 
Eat an apple on going to bed,
And you’ll keep the doctor from earning his bread.

Sweet, flavorful, crunchy, colorful apples are a great alternative to candy, chips, soda pop, and other processed, chemically-laden junk foods and junk beverages. An apple will provide you with energy, fill you up, and at about 84 percent water, will quench your thirst. Apples contain high levels of boron, which stimulates electrical activity in the brain, increasing mental alertness and improving memory. Apples may not be rich in calcium, but the high level of boron also makes them a great food to prevent osteoporosis and strengthen bones. Apples are fat-free, sodium-free, and cholesterol-free. A typical medium-size apple contains about 80 calories.
 
“Good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness.” -Jane Austen (1775 - 1817)

“Surely the apple is the noblest of fruits.” -Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862): “Wild Apples” (1862)
 
Let’s consider liquefied apples. The difference between apple juice and apple cider is that apple juice is squeezed from only the usually white flesh of the fruit, while apple cider is squeezed from the whole apple - skin, seeds, stem, and all - which gives it a fuller body and deeper color. Additionally, apple juice is pasteurized, or flash heated to reduce the level of active naturally occurring microorganisms, and apple cider is generally not. Freshly pressed apple juice will immediately turn brown upon contact with air because of oxidation; however, a way to prevent this from happening is to add a few drops of lemon juice or lime juice to it, which helps prevent oxidation. One other liquid made from apples is apple cider vinegar, which is derived from the fermentation, or controlled spoilage, of apple mush. Apple cider vinegar is a brownish yellow color.
 
Apples for Sale! Apple varieties tend to have names chosen in hopes of making them commercially successful, just as other products have brand names. The ‘Delicious’ variety of apples originally was called ‘Hawkeyes.’ Without doubt, the name change makes them more appealing. There are thousands more varieties of apples with great names, including Gala, Golden Delicious, and Granny Smith. Even the saying that ‘an apple a day keeps the doctor away’ might be just a clever way to promote apple-awareness without spending an arm and a leg on advertising.
 
“Anyone can count the number of seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.” -Robert H. Schuller (Robert Harold Schuller (1926 - 2015))
 
Archeologists have found evidence that humans have been enjoying apples since at least 6500 B.C.E. Apple trees are thought to have originated in Central Asia between the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea, in the area of present-day Kazakhstan. The only apple variety native to North America is the crabapple. Other varieties of apples were brought to North America by European settlers, who planted orchards all across the continent. The first apple tree in the United States of America was planted in 1620 by pilgrims who traveled from Europe by sea to what was then the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In time, the early settlers would discover that hardy varieties of apples could be successfully grown farther north than most other fruits because apple trees blossom late in the Spring, minimizing any frost damage.

Crab apples are small green apples with origins in North America. They are often just a little bigger than a cherry. They are not as popular for eating right off the tree as other varieties of apples are, because crab apples are bitter and tart in flavor and possess hardly any sweetness. However, they still grow wild in many areas, meaning they are often free for the taking. Crab apples can be used to make crab apple jelly for spreading on toast or used in fancy cuisine similar to the way mint jelly is used.

Granny Smith apples were originally cultivated in 1868 by Maria Ann Smith of Eastwood, New South Wales, Australia.
 
More than 7,500 varieties of apples are grown worldwide. The top apple-producing countries are China, the United States, Turkey, Poland, and Italy. The largest importers of apples are Russia, Germany, and the United Kingdom. Apples are available year-around in most areas thanks to bulk transport and climate-controlled warehouses. Apples can be shipped from orchards by truck, train, and cargo ship to warehouses where they are stored at low temperatures for as long as a year, and then the temperature is raised to cause them to ripen shortly before selling them to buyers.
 
A large shiny red apple is a traditional gift a student might bring to a teacher - and the student does not have to wait for Teacher Appreciation Day, also known as National Teacher Day, which is observed on the Tuesday of the first full week in May of each year. Rather than a single apple, why not give a teacher a full bushel size basket of apples?

Commercial grade wax is applied to some apples after they are harvested and cleaned, in an effort to keep out bacteria and slow the ripening process. It also makes them shinier. The waxes are made of natural ingredients.
 
There are so many apple varieties that if you were to eat an apple a day, it would take more than 27 years to try them all - and still more new varieties of apples are produced every year.

The top apple producing states are Washington, New York, Michigan, Pennsylvania, California, and Virginia. Red Delicious is the most popular and most-produced apple in the United States, and Golden Delicious is the second most popular, with Granny Smith coming in third. The apple is the state fruit of Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, Washington, and West Virginia.

Apples Quiz
- How are apples harvested, or gathered?
- What are five uses for apples?
- Can you name two animals that eat apples?
 
Bobbing for apples at parties is possible because fresh apples are twenty-five percent air, making them buoyant. Buoyant means they float in water.
 
It is said that the custom of ‘apple polishing’ hails from the little red schoolhouses of yore, when young children whose math skills were less than exemplary sought to win their teacher’s favor instead with a bright, shiny apple. Remember this ditty: An apple for the teacher will always do the trick, when you don’t know your lesson in arithmetic.

Trees are the kindest things I know,
     They do no harm, they simply grow,
And spread a shade for sleepy cows,
     And gather birds among their boughs.
 
Trees give us fruit in leaves above,
     And wood to make our houses of,
And in the Spring grow buds of green,
     Trees are the kindest things I know.

Because they are primeval, because they outlive us, because they are fixed, trees seem to emanate a sense of permanence. And though rooted in earth, they seem to touch the sky. For these reasons it is natural to feel we might learn wisdom from them, to haunt about them with the idea that if we could only read their silent riddle rightly we should learn some secret vital to our own lives; or even, more specifically, some secret vital to our real, our lasting and spiritual existence.

When spring comes round, our apple tree is very full of flowers,
     And when a bird sits on a branch the petals fall in showers.
When summer comes round, our apple tree is very full of green,
     And everywhere you look in it there is a leafy screen.
When autumn comes round, our apple tree is full of things to eat
     And apples hang from every branch to tumble at our feet.
When winter comes round, our apple tree is full of snow and ice,
     And rabbits come to visit it . . . We think our tree is nice.

“I’m little and round as a miller’s thumb,
     I’ll never be big, I’ll always be small.”
 
The oak tree smiled a knowing smile,
      “My trunk is thick, and my roots are deep,
My branches and twigs spread high and wide,
     For birds to nest in, and bugs to sleep.
 
But I was an acorn too on a time,
     - ‘Oh I’ll never be big, I’ll never be strong,’ -
That’s what I thought many years ago . . .
     And, dear little acorn, you see I was wrong!”

We plant the mast to carry the sails;
     We plant the planks to withstand the gales -
The keel, the keelson, the beam, the knee;
     We plant the ship when we plant the tree.
 
What do we plant when we plant the tree?
     We plant the houses for you and me.
We plant the rafters, the shingles, the floors,
     We plant the studding, the lath, the doors,
The beams and siding, all parts that be;
     We plant the house when we plant the tree.
 
What do we plant when we plant the tree?
     A thousand things that we daily see;
We plant the spire that out-towers the crag,
     We plant the staff for our country’s flag,
We plant the shade, from the hot sun free;
     We plant all these when we plant the tree.

Arbor Day Hymn
 
Joy for the sturdy trees,
Fanned by each fragrant breeze,
     Lovely they stand!
The songbirds o’er them trill;
They shade each tinkling rill*;
They crown each swelling hill;
     Lowly or grand.
 
Plant them by stream and way,
Plant them where the children play
     And toilers rest.
In every verdant vale,
On every sunny swale -
Whether to grow or fail,
     God knoweth best.
 
Select the strong, the fair;
Plant them with earnest care;
     No toil is vain.
Plant in a fitter place,
Where, like a lovely face,
Let in some sweeter grace,
     Change may prove gain.
 
God will his blessing send,
All things on him depend,
     His loving care
Clings to his leaf and flower,
Like ivy to its tower,
His presence and his power
     Are everywhere.
 
By Samuel F. Smith, author of “My Country Tis of Thee” (originally known by the title, “America” (1831)), and sung to the same tune

​Forest Song
 
A song for the beautiful trees!
     A song for the forest grand,
The Garden of God’s own hand,
     The pride of His centuries.
Hurrah! for the kingly oak,
     For the maple, the sylvan queen,
For the lords of the emerald cloak,
     For the ladies in golden green.
 
For the beautiful trees a song!
     The peers of a glorious realm,
The linden, the ash, and the elm,
     The poplar stately and strong, -
For the birch and the hemlock trim,
     For the hickory staunch at core,
For the locust thorny and grim,
     For the silvery sycamore.
 
A song for the palm, - the pine,
     And for every tree that grows,
From the desolate zone of snows
     To the zone of the burning line;
Hurrah! for the warders proud
     Of the mountainside and the vale,
That challenge the thunder-cloud
     And buffet the stormy gale.
 
A song for the forest, aisled,
     With its Gothic roof sublime,
The solemn temple of Time,
     Where man becometh a child,
As he listens the anthem-roll
     Of the voiceful winds that call,
In the solitude of his soul,
     On the name of the All-in-All.
 
So long as the rivers flow,
     So long as the mountains rise,
May the foliage drink of the skies;
     And shelter the flowers below;
Hurrah! for the beautiful trees!
     Hurrah! for the forest grand,
The pride of His centuries,
     The Garden of God’s own hand.

Good Timber

Picture of a dirt logging road through a woods in Autumn, with pine tree logs stacked up on both sides of the road, ready to be loaded onto trucks to sawmills, and the words, ‘Visit www.MakeFunOfLife.net.’
Good Timber
 
The tree that never had to fight
     For sun and sky and air and light,
But stood out in the open plain
     And always got its share of rain,
Never became a forest king
     But lived and died a scrubby thing.
 
The man who never had to toil
     To gain and farm his patch of soil,
Who never had to win his share
     Of sun and sky and light and air,
Never became a manly man
     But lived and died as he began.
 
Good timber does not grow with ease,
     The stronger wind, the stronger trees,
The further sky, the greater length,
     The more the storm, the more the strength.
By sun and cold, by rain and snow,
     In trees and men good timbers grow.
 
Where thickest lies the forest growth
     We find the patriarchs of both.
And they hold counsel with the stars
     Whose broken branches show the scars
Of many winds and much of strife.
     This is the common law of life.

Douglas Malloch, Senior was born on 5 May 1877 in Muskegon, Michigan, United States of America. He grew up in the midst of logging camps, sawmills, and lumber yards. He became enamored with writing poems and stories about lumbering scenes and eventually became known as the ‘Lumbermen’s Poet.’ He wrote his first poem at 10 years of age, which was published in the “Detroit News.” After leaving school, he took a job on the editorial staff at the “Muskegon Chronicle,” where he remained for 13 years, becoming a reporter and feature writer for the paper. After leaving the “Muskegon Chronicle,” he joined the staff of the “American Lumberman” in 1903 as a syndicated columnist. Mr. Malloch soon became a popular and nationally renowned humorist, lecturer, and radio personality. His column was often written in the form of a poem, and eventually the poems were collected into a series of books with “In Forest Land” (1906) being his first published work and a national best seller. Douglas Malloch, Senior passed on at 61 years of age on 2 July 1938 in Muskegon, Michigan, United States of America.

Picture of a human hand holding a clump of soil that has an oak tree sapling growing from it, and the words, ‘Visit www.MakeFunOfLife.net.’
​Our Tree
 
Into the sunbeams’ keeping
     The mellow sunbeams bright.
We give our tree, to nourished be,
     By the warm, life-giving light.
 
The gentle breezes, tender,
     That rustle the tree-tops high,
Will whisper to it, how stately
     It may be, in the bye-and-bye.
 
And the rain and the dew will moisten
     And freshen the rootlets light.
And we shall soon see in our spreading tree,
     A rare and beauteous sight.
 
And the birds will seek its shelter,
     How glad we then shall be,
That on Arbor Day in the joyous May,
     We planted a fair young tree.
 
Let us then rejoice and sing,
     That in the gladsome spring,
The springtime of our lives and of the year,
     We have marked again the day
     Which we welcome every May,
And have planted thus a tender sapling here.

The Heart Of The Tree
 
What does he plant who plants a tree?
     He plants the friend of sun and sky;
He plants the flag of breezes free,
     The shaft of beauty, towering high;
He plants a home to heaven anigh;
     For song and mother croon of bird
In hushed and happy twilight heard -
     The treble of heaven’s harmony -
These things he plants who plants a tree.
 
What does he plant who plants a tree?
     He plants cool shade and tender rain.
And seed and bud of days to be,
     And years that fade and flush again;
He plants the glory of the plain;
     He plants the forest’s heritage -
The harvest of a coming age;
     The joys that unborn eyes shall see -
These things he plants who plants a tree.
 
What does he plant who plants a tree?
     He plants in sap and leaf and wood,
In love of home and loyalty
     And far cast thought of civic good -
His blessing on the neighborhood
     Who in the hollow of his hand
Holds all the growth of all our land -
     A nation’s growth from sea to sea
Stir in his heart who plants a tree.

The Oak Tree

Picture of a leafy green oak tree at the top of a green grassy hill silhouetted against a blue sky with fluffy white clouds, and the words, ‘Visit www.MakeFunOfLife.net.’
The Oak Tree
 
A mighty wind blew night and day,
     It stole the oak tree’s leaves away,
Then snapped its boughs and pulled its bark,
     Until the oak was tired and stark.

But still the oak tree held its ground,
     While other trees fell all around.
The weary wind gave up and spoke,
     “How can you still be standing, Oak?”

The oak tree said, “I know that you
     Can break each branch of mine in two,
Carry every leaf away,
     Shake my limbs, and make me sway.

But I have roots stretched in the earth,
     Growing stronger since my birth,
You’ll never touch them, for you see,
     They are the deepest part of me.

Until today, I wasn’t sure
     Of just how much I could endure,
But now I’ve found, with thanks to you,
     I’m stronger than I ever knew.”

Picture of men planting leafy green saplings in a field, and the words, ‘Visit www.MakeFunOfLife.net.’
​Arbor Day
 
Arbor Day, Arbor Day,
See, the fields are fresh and green;
All is bright cheerful sight,
     After Winter’s night.
Birds are flying in the air,
All we see is fresh and fair;
Bowers green, now are seen,
     Flowers peep between.
 
Swaying trees, swaying trees,
Rocking gently in the breeze,
Dressed so gay, fine array,
     For this Arbor Day
While we plant our tree so dear,
All the others list to hear,
How we sing, in the spring,
     And our voices ring.
 
Here we stand, here we stand,
Round the tree, a royal band;
Music floats, cheering notes,
     Sweetly, gaily floats.
March along with heads so high,
While our tree is standing nigh;
Step away, light and gay,
     On this Arbor Day.

Plant A Tree
 
He who plants a tree
Plants a hope.
Rootlets up through fibers blindly grope;
Leaves unfold into horizons free.
So man’s life must climb
From the clods of time
Unto heavens sublime.
Canst thou prophesy, thou little tree,
What the glory of thy boughs shall be?
 
He who plants a tree
Plants a joy;
Plants a comfort that will never cloy;
Every day a fresh reality,
Beautiful and strong,
To whose shelter throng
Creatures blithe with song.
If thou couldst but know, thou happy tree,
Of the bliss that shall inhabit thee!
 
He who plants a tree, -
He plants peace.
Under its green curtains jargons cease.
Leaf and zephyr murmur soothingly;
Shadows soft with sleep
Down tired eyelids creep,
Balm of slumber deep.
Never hast thou dreamed, thou blessed tree,
Of the benediction thou shalt be.
 
He who plants a tree, -
He plants youth;
Vigor won for centuries in sooth;
Life of time, that hints eternity!
Boughs their strength uprear;
New shoots, every year,
On old growths appear;
Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy tree,
Youth of soul is immortality.
 
He who plants a tree, -
He plants love,
Tents of coolness spreading out above
Wayfarers he may not live to see.
Gifts that grow are best;
Hands that bless are blest;
Plant! life does the rest!
Heaven and earth help him who plants a tree,
And his work its own reward shall be.

Picture of a two acorns lying in the grass at the foot of a tall, green leafy oak tree, and the words, ‘Visit www.MakeFunOfLife.net.’
Little By Little
 
“Little by little,” an acorn said,
     As it slowly sank in its mossy bed,
“I am improving every day,
     Hidden deep in the earth away.”
 
Little by little it sipped the dew,
     Little by little each day it grew;
Downward it sent out a threadlike root,
     Up in the air sprang a tiny shoot.
 
Day after day and year after year
     Little by little the leaves appear;
And the slender branches spread far and wide
     Till the mighty oak is the forest’s pride.

Arbor Day
 
I cannot dig a great big hole
     And set a tree into it,
But I can make a little hole
     And I am going to do it.
 
Then in the little hole I’ll drop
     This acorn brown and shiny,
And that way I can plant a tree
     Although I am so tiny.

Picture of a tree and the words, 'Advice from a Tree Begin growing wherever you might find yourself. Sink your roots deep into solid Earth, Soak in the sunlight, falling rain, and rich soil, Above you shines the Sun, Moon, and stars, Saying you can courageously reach to touch the sky Ever after standing straight and tall. And be content with your own rugged beauty. Let your limbs dance nimbly with the breeze, And become strong from the forceful winds. Listen to the songbirds and the crickets and owls, Let their myriad thrive in your shade and shelter. As you bestow a thousand blessings on the world, Marvel in the natural world around you - And every moment enjoy the view! by David Hugh Beaumont (born 1966)'
