There are two very different kinds, which, without taking 160 AMERICAN HANDBOOK upon myself to pronounce them specifically distinct, are yet sufficiently so to be practical. The first variety is round-headed, the branches extending out a long way, and very rigidly, frequently very ruggedly tortuose and twist- ing ; the leaves very much shining, and the berries nearly round. It seldom exceeds fifty feet high. The leaves turn to a yellowish- red in the fall. The other grows very erect and tall, with few side branches.
