TREES NEEDED ON ROADWAYS
No
Reason Why the United States
Should Ee Behind Europe in
Matter of B-iautification.
One of the pleasant impressions
which our soldiers brought back with
them from overseas was of miles of
country roadways beautified with
mnnliiccnt trees. In this country a
shade tree by the roadside is so rare
us to cause comment. Once in a while
during a trip of many miles one will
come to a place where some wise man
of the past has set out In a row along
the side of the road maples or oaks
or elms. Put an even commoner sight
are the stretches where somebody has
cut down the trees and left the road
way bare and unsightly. Not infre
quently telegraph or telephone com
panies have gone hacking their way
through a stretch of fine old trees.
It appears that a land owner resid
ing on any country road may cut down
trees-along the highway for cord wood
und plow the land to the very edge
of the road without Interference, and
that the law has permitted him to set
out saplings In the spring nnd get 25
cents each in reduction of taxes. Pub
lic service corporations, It is stated,
also have certain rights under the law
which seem to work to the disadvan-
tnirp of iirivnf-u pifinne cent-int to !
beautify the highway adjoining their
property by planting valuable trees.
The State Forestry association will
submit a proposition to its entire
membership this fall by letter ballot,
with a view to determining whether
codification nnd revision of the state's
shade tree laws shall be one of the
objectives in tht campaign for neces
sary forestry legislation. The associa
tion is appealing for the support of
nil citizens interested.
This is something which mny well
command our favorable attention. The
movement should provide not only for
the protection of such roadside trees
ns still exist, but should also make
provision for the replacing of those al
ready destroyed. Iiuffalo Express.
BACKYARD ORCHARD AN ASSET
Can Bs Depended Uaon to Pay Divi
dends of Pleasure and Health
for Many Yearo.
The orchard behind the village home
lias always been nn asset of great
value. We knew one once that hart
cherries, pears, plums and apples for
(ho entire fruit season early and late
- (liifl It yielded enormous dividends of
pleasure und health for a full quarter
of'n century.
A few fruit trees mny ! r grown with
profit In the buck yards of cities not
loo closely built. One exists In u near
by city, where ten years r.go n wise
husbandman plnn'eil fruit trees In his
back yard, and 1'i.r ornament set out
Japanese apricots and dwarf (iiiilii-fs In
