roai., Is being aroused. something ought TO be saA
about planting shade trees along country roads,
farmers generally take this duty upon them
selves Il would be- done without the slightest trouble.
Says "The springfield Union,' I'VE recall town ID
Eastern Massachusetts where some thirtyive years
ago "a minister who mingled agriculture and the love
of nature with his theology, set the example OF setting
elms along a stretch OF road which had never been
shaded. Ills neighbrs were persuaded to help In un
enterprise and to-day that piece OF road Is one q
the most delightful driving places In town. Moreover,
