This has been a hard year on natur.
al trees in and around this city. Many
of the mastod0n black oaks, as we'll a

some yards, have only been saved by
the liberal use Of city wster, while on
the lawns of w. p. Dunnington, W.D
Finn, O. B. Turrell and others they
are rapidly passing into history. DR.

them down. He expects to save the
rest by the use Of city water, a connec.
ton with which he will secure after
subscribing for the city bonds for the
water extension. w. p. bennington
will also run the water main across
his lot in order to save trees that can
be saved.
