The Value of Tree» Stretteti
Tree planting season is here again
and with all the new homes now be
ing established in Hermiston the sub
ject is of more importance than usual.
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.
McNary, Oregon and the entire west
finds itself with less strength in Con
gress than for many years. A few
years ago the western states were
strongly represented and the delega

the affairs of the nation. Borah of
