THE GINKO TREE
Will Probably he Planted Along the
Avenue.

Just at this time the Commissioners are
discussing she a.ivisab''i.y of lmrn.g a
row of trees on eao1 sIie of Pennsy.vsni
avenue Its entire lC1gih. Cap:. Powell
brought the matter to The attention Of the
commissioners AT r recent meeting uf llIe
board and The Combustion ars were all favcr-
ably inclined The most important question
to settle in connection with THIS ~ Wat
variety of Tree is best adapted fo- me rur-
pose. Pennsylvania avenue ~ SO thoroughly
covered that It Is difficult for anv moisture
to get through to the roots Of tn, trees
For that reason, the Iraes after "A few years
begin to decay, and :, brisk wini blows
them down. Capt. Powell proposes to urge.
no matter what specie of tree is adopted, to
make provision for an ample space around
the base and SOW grass seed therein This
would give the moisture an opportunity to
get through to the roots of the tree and
thereby prolong its life. All along the
avenue the trees with a very few excep-
ions are scraggy In appearance and the
commissioners are daily receiving requests
mat they be taken away. These complaints
nave not all been based on the i'll appear
ance OF the trees entirely. Some mer-
chants insisted that the large maples with
their over-reaching branches completely OBJ
scured their places of business and were a
nuisance in that they fostered the cater
pillar.
1t is the intention of the Commissioners
TO provide tree that will combine a tidy
appearance with durability and not be a
breeding place for caterpillars 1t is be-
neVed that the Ginko tree is the one best
suited Tor the purpose and the parking com
mission has been called upon to submit
IT'S views upon the desirabiiity and adapta-
piilty OF the tree for Pennsylvania avenue
Apropos of the pending action, the Com
missioners today received a letter from Mr.
George Simmons of 1920 Roanoke street
northwest. bearing on the subject of the
Ginko tree. He says:
1T is hardy. thrifty and clear. and for
beauty of ramification and foliage cannot be
surpassed. 1t is tall, slender and graceful
In autumn its unique foliage of deep golden
tint is most beautiful and attractive. and 1t
Is well into winter before it sheds its pretty
dress Some fine specimens of this tree can
be seen In the gardens of the Department
of Agriculture. 1t will also be found on
Pierce place northwest and on some other
of the city thoroughfares. 1t grows rapidly
in any soil and is always of pleasing APP
pearance. By the way. the Ginko is
native of China and Japan dixie so many of
the beautiful plants that adorn our gardens
and lawns) and was introduced into this
country by the great financier, Alexander
Hamilton, in 1854. The trees then planted
by Mr.. Hamilton in his country place near
Philadelphia are said to be still living The
trees being highly ornamental are now used
extensively on lawns, gardens and streets in
every part of our country, giving satlsfac-
ton everywhere"
