A great deal of work, study and planning have gone into these plans ana the Garden Club members have worked very laboriously to ob tain information on the best plan and the best type of tree adapted for this area. At the garden club meeting on Tuesday, information was presented to the members by Mrs. Fredrick Martin on trees, their types and1 adaptability for this area. A vote was made to obtain the group's choice in or der of their preferences, with the following choices, Moraine Lo cust. Scarlet Oak, Washington Thorn, Norway Maple, Schwed- ler s Maple, Little Lear Linden. These six types of trees are con sidered to be the most highly adaptd for our area. The club is open to any suggestions or information that anyone can give them to help in this work. It is planned, througn later articles, to bring information through our paper on the proper planning, planting and care methods to enable everyone In surrounding communities, as well as our own town, to have healthier and bettei trees.
