I learned something new a couple of weeks ago, fall is the best season to plant trees. A few of my teachers taught me that. Mrs. Orem said that it’s a good time to plant trees in the fall because it helps keeps their roots strong. Mrs. Fleideman said that they grow slower in fall than they do in the spring. Mr. Holland said the roots take up nutrients better in the fall. At lone School we have beautiful trees for sale. We have quaking aspens, maples, snowberry bushes and plenty more. Prices for the trees are $3 for 1 gallon pots, $5 for 2 gallon pots, and $7 for 5 gallon pots. Trees will be avail able for purchase at the green house from 8 to 9 a.m. and 12:15 to 1:30 p.m., and after school by appointment only. For more information call 422-7131 ext. 4712.
