The attaching of tho names of friends
to trees is pleasant practice This can
bo done either by planting tree espe-
cially for the person or by associating
the name with one already growing.
Tho Herne of Shakespeare did not plant
the oak, but Herne's oak is Just as IA
nous as If it had been planted for him
or by him. 1t is to be regretted that tho
name Of the lady who was associated
with this grand old oak cannot now be
given. Certainly it would add materi-
ally to its interest. A white oak is
pleasure in itself. -Meehan's Monthly.

On the banks of Cooper's creek, about
four miles from Camden, N. j.. two
very large white oaks stood. The prop.
erty was once owned by Mr.. Kay, who
named them for his two daughters
These trees survived the family 10 long
that the writer was unable to learn the
names given them, and the trees seem
to be the only memorial of the family.
One was Frustrated by strong wind
about two years ago. The one still
standing measures 20 feet in circumfer.
ence, in height about 10 feet, and the
branches extend from the trunk about
80 feet each way. Tho fallen one was
II feet in circumference, and 216 fence
posts were cut from the branches. We
think the practice of planting and nam.
ing trees ms memorials an estimable one,
and tablet giving the date of planting
should be attached. -Rodolfus Bling
