1. Pruning for safety or shape?

"The best trees, the least call
back.
As a home owner, you may
do what you please about the
trees on vour home grounds.
With those on your parking strip
whose ownership and mainten
ance vou share with the city, It
may be a different story.
"The right time to be super
critical about a street tree Is
hefnre. rAther than after, vou
plant it. These are the main fac
tors welched In choosing trees
on our lists:
"Longevity A beautiful tree,
like a well built house, is some
thing to pass along to future
generations. Generally undesir
able are those llkelv to die early
or to weaken until they have
to be destroyed because of the
safety hazard they create.
Cleanliness The dropping
leaves, fruits, and flowers of
some trees are hard to dispose
of. It is desirable that a de
ciduous tree drop Its leaves rap-
(Ily and all at once, so that
they can be cleaned up In one
operation.
Good growth habit A pleas
ing shape and mass is probably
most Important. A tree that does
n't have to be trimmed over
head to lot wires pass and which
naturally branches high enough
to allow sidewalk clearance, is
desirable. For the most part, it Is
best o choose trees with an
ascending growth habit rather
cendlng branches.
"Disease and pest resistance
The best street trees are subject
to the fewest diseases, the least
serious, and those least likely
to assume epidemic proportions.
"Deep roots Shallow-rooted
trees can be robbers, vandaU,
and weaklings; they steal nour
ishment and moisture; they
break td lews Iks. curbs and water
mains. Uut many are beautiful
and other la dlrabl. If you
do, give It plenty of room.
"Adaptability to soil and cli
mateStudy your own terrain
nd Its mlcro-rllmate. A tree
might be subject to frost dam
age In hollows where cold air
Is trartwd. but might survive
on a slope or location with good
air drainage.
"Don't take any single factor
too seriously. No tree is perfect.
Before and after planting, con
sider them as you do your
friends, with the good outweigh
ing the bad."
