Nothing adds more beauty, comfort and value to a home than a few trees on the lot and along the street. We have had the habit for many years of planting black locusts which has prov en a very durable tree", but we would recommend as better the sycamore, linden, soft maple and black walnut, all of rapid growth and suitable for conditions here. A few evergreens would add to the winter scenes. We have all learned, in particular the last few years, the value of shade. Lots with a few trees were sold for twice the price of bare lots. The ex pense of planting trees is very small compared with the returns. West Lose» Conuressioiial Strength In the death of Senator Charles L.
