The Effect of Trees i'm Cities.

4 correspondence has been recently
carried on in the local press at Geneva as
to the value, or otherwise, of trees in
streets and open spaces. DIR. Piachaud
cOntended that trees in streets do more
harm than good, that they impede the cir
culatiOn Of the air, and that, as for the
shade they afford, people who do not like
sunshine have only to keep on the shady
side of the street. Instead of planting
more trees, as some propose, he would
rather, in the interests of hygiene, re-
move all existing trees. Professor GOret,
of the University, who, though an emf
nent physicist and chemist, diSclaims
any special knowledge of medicine of
hygiene, has replied. He treats the mat
ter from a common sense and scientific
point of view. He SAYS that trees in
streets temper the heat and serve as a
protection from dust, and that the eyapO-
ration from their leaves tends to
keep the surrounding air cool
and moist; that the perpetual vi
of their branches. whilst admitting a suf-
ficient amount of light, serve 10 protect
the eyes from the MONDAY glare. PrO-
fessOr GOret's last argument is that the
roots of trees draw up stagnant waters
and absorb the organic matters contained
in the filth from which the streets of
town are never free. and which, after IN
fltrating the ground, are frequent cause
of fevers and infection. Trees, in fact,
have the same effect on the subsOil of
towns as fields have On the contents of
their sewers-they act as disinfectants,
Taking these facts into consideration, the
Professor strongly recommends the plant
ing of trees, at proper intervals, In streets
and squares. He also condemns the prac-
tice that prevails in many continental
towns of cutting the trees down to q uni
form size, as the branches of trees so
treated become so impacted as to be i'm
perviOus to light, and the shade they give
under such circumstances, although deep,
is too circumscribed to he OF much USE
