Fig. 123. Top. Top of Appalachian shale hill. Soil too shallow to plow, yet supporting grass and trees, because roots penetrate the cracks.—Fig. 124. Center. Sorrento peninsula, Italy. Background, olives; foreground, walnuts. Every tree grafted. Most of the land utterly unplowable—Fig. 125. Bottom. Central Tunis. Rainfall less than 10 inches. Olives, as far as the eye can see.
