little stock or other speculative activity,
and with few strongly new features pre-

judging from advices Of activity and
strength of demand reported alike from

Sylvester Park where there is lack of
these desirable ornaments. A num-
Der of maple trees are wanted to fill
out the row along the Main street

Sixth street. The south side of the
Park is wholly devoid of shade trees,
where it would seem they were most
needed. Young forest trees are in
their most hardy condition at this
season, and if they were taken up now
with liberal supply of roots and
properly planted and staked, the
chances would be wholly in their favor
during the rigors of winter. These
trees are rapid growers and but a
short term of years would elapse be-
fore they doubly repaid the cost of
planting them in the solid comfort
they would afford.
