August, 1945 Carter: Wetwood of Elms 411 through wounds made b\' the removal of branches, fig. 4, through cracks in crotch- es, fig. 5, and trunks, fig. 6, and through other trunk injuries. This exuding of sap is commonly called fluxing. The sap or flux as it oozes out of diseased wood is colorless to tan but turns dark upon ex- posure to air. When abundant bleeding occurs, the flux flows down the trunk, wetting and soaking large areas of bark, figs. 5 and 6. When it dries, it leaves a light gray to white incrustation on the bark, fig. 7.
