the suggestion has been made that the

trees be planted in their places, so that
the farmers on whose land they grow

suggestion don't know what they are

led by rieidly ecforced law to regard
the rights of property owners, and
would just as soon think of robbing o
fruit tree on public road as of robbing
a house on that road. In this country,
however, it is entirely different, and
