Years May Bring Chang
Land Is said to be developed to its
highest and beat use when tht struc
ture on it produces a larger return
than any other building would pro
duce, but It should be noted Uiat thl
return must have a reasonable persist
ence. In other words, In the case of
home site, the owner should assure
himself that the house be Is building
on It will return the entlsfnctlon and
enjoyment described above for a good
long period of time.
Land that Is developed today with a
home of exactly the right type may
fall In the path of a city's Industrial
progress, and, as this encroachment
closes around It tht bomt becomes
less and less the best structure for the
plot and Its value as a homeslte de
creases. At the same time, with the
change in the character of the neigh
borhood, tbt amount of satisfaction
and enjoyment secured from the home
Is decreased until perhaps the location
becomes unbearable, when all satisfac
tion and enjoyment disappear. Of
course, the lot of value In such a
property as a homeslte may be offset
eventually by an Increase In value for
an Industrial or commercial site, but
this rise (n value does not usually
come about at once. There la a period
of transition, when the neighborhood
Is declining as a residential site and
yet has not yet ripened to maturity as
a commercial area. Moreover many
people who establish permanent home
do not like to see such changes even
If they bring about higher value, nor
do they like to move out of district
that hove become home to them.
All Conveniences for
Maryland "Model City"
A model city embracing all the lat

built by the Davison Chemical com
pany on a site embracing 400 acre,
near it plant at Curt! Bay, Mary
land. Central heating and refrigeration
plant will be operated by the com
pany, enabling resident to have mod
ern conveniences. The city will be
known as Davison. A harmonious
plan of architecture Is to be employed
so that groups of houses will not be
definitely unlike and yet not lack In
dividuality. In the center of th model town a
community quadrangle Is to be built
for stores, shops and a moving picture
theater or halt It will be surrounded
by a broad space where autos can pork
without charge.
One corner of the development will
be used for a park which will Includo
tennis courts, a baseball diamond and
a football field. Hills and level land
stretching southward will prove ample
for building a golf link If desired. At
the opposite end space will be reserved
for a school and churches.
Encourage Tree Planting
Property owners are to be encour
aged to plant more shnde trees, and
garden club directors hove outlined
a manner of planting by which the
appearance of property may be en
hanced, and by which certain char
acteristics a between adjoining prop
erties may be preserved. The recom
mendation as to tree especially suit
ed for the local climate and soli should
be valuable. Indeed.
The plan to encourage tree planting
In the parking strips of vacant lots
Is also well worth while, and helps to
round out a program which should
mono much In adding to the city's nat
ural beauty. Bend (Ore.) Tribune.
Consider Improvements
Now is the time to think about Im
proving your home. Is your home new
or out of date? Is It comfortable and
convenient, or lacking In some of Uie
things that mnke life sweeter?
If your answer shows that equip
ment Is needed, then you should Join
the home modernizing movement
You should devote your thought and
efforts toward making the home a
more pleasant plnce In wh'ch to live.
There Is no need to delay. You can
start now as well ns later. And the
sooner you begin your plans, the soon
er you will enjoy the delights of a
modern, well-appointed home.
Trees Along Highway
The new state highway department
should make some arrangements with
the land owners along the many high
ways of the state to beautify these
driveways by planting roses and other
beautifying flowers, and pecan trees
along Its edge. Let these trees over
lap the highway and the public can
gather the nuts that full in the rond.
The land owners could donate the
land and the stnte the trees. Let's
have the benutlful as we go along.
It Is Just ns easy as having things

Ceutervllle (Ore.) Press.
Careful Lawn Planting
Great care should be taken that one
does not overdo the planting on his
lawn In his zeal to make It attractive.
Spotty lnwn planting should always be
avoided. Shrubbery should be massed
effectively ns oorder, screen and di
vision and foundation planting; some
evergreens should always be Included;
they are beautiful In themselves, and
add a zest to the winter landscape
that nothing else can equal.
