Transcript

For decades he studied the reptiles of Carolina and in 1812 he published his famous herpetological books, which, illustrated by the Italian, Sera, undoubtedly form one of the most valuable contributions to natural science ever written. It is interesting to note that it was in Carolina that he found not only many of the reptiles he so adequately describes, but also the inspiration to give every moment of his leisure from his practice of medicine to the study of the most misunderstood of God's creatures. DENIZENS OF COAST AND STREAM (Continued from page 350) been caught by channel bass fishermen, but more have been taken in pound nets. The large-mouthed black bass is usually called a "trout", but it does not need this name to make it the gamiest of the freshwater fishes of the Carolina region. Individuals in certain waters of the coastal plain of both states grow very large. Throughout most of the territory occupied by the large-mouth black bass, the chain pickerel, beloved of country boys, locally called "jack", is perhaps the second- best game fish. Some anglers profess to belittle the fighting qualities of this species, but it is a scrapper of merit, though the abundance of fine bones in the flesh prevents it from being a great favorite on the table. In still fishing with light tackle, the blue bream, Lepomis incisor; the leathered- eared perch, Lepomis auritus; the calico bass, or crappie, Pomoxis sparoides; and the yellow perch, Perca flaveseens, usually called raccoon perch, also have their points which anglers will wildly defend. Towards the mountain region, the small- mouth black bass, sometimes called the "black perch", to a great extent replaces its more southerly relative, and this species is found in many of the mountain streams at quite high elevations. The Ohio muskallunge is found in some of the mountain streams of North Carolina that belong to the Mississippi drainage system. Like the chain pickerel it is locally known as "jack" and is much sought after by discriminating anglers. Fish up to seventeen or eighteen pounds are taken, but this seems about the maximum size of the present-day muskies of these regions, though legend says that the good old days produced specimens reaching thirty-five pounds. But few people east of the mountains have any knowledge of the muskallunge as a North Carolina species and the fishing for this—the largest freshwater game fish of the two states—is mainly confined to the native anglers of the hills.

But not Wayside Gardens. Not, because of their being field grown and not greenhouse coddled. That means strong tops and plenty of vigorous roots. These things combined with their being painstakingly packed in moist moss and carefully wrapped for shipment. We guarantee every Wayside Quality plant to reach you in perfect planting condition. If not, we cheerfully make good. So although it's late, there's still time to plant your hardy garden with Wayside Quality stock. But it means prompt ordering. Wa\|*icle Gjajxlerw MENTOR.

Description

Several articles on the Carolinas appear in this 1931 issue of Nature Magazine. The magazine was collected by George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, George Masa (1881-1933) emigrated to the U.S. when he was 20 years old and, in 1915, came to Asheville, where he lived the rest of his life. Masa was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
