consul general had charge OF the Amer

Conger has been penned up IN the le-

news Of the state department has been
supplied from Shanghai.
II Is fortunate thing for us that our
consul general has risen 10 the demands
OF his position. He has proved himself
one OF the ablest OF the men who are
here representing foreign nations. and
he has kept the United States at the

o the Editor of The Evening Star:

10 the Editor of The Evening Star:
have been much interested in several
recent letters in your paper regarding the
proper labelling of the trees and shrubs in
the city. 1t is, of course, needless to say
that one of the chief attractions of Wash
instcn is the great number of beautiful
trees ard shrubs that are successfully
grown here. If they could be labeled they
would afford an object lesson of inestima-
BILE value. not only to the old and young
who reside here, but especially to the large
numbers of visitors who come here every
year. 1t is a very common occurrence 10
see a group Of visitors standing in admira-
ton before Paulownia or Silver Bell
tree in full flower, and hear them wonder
ing what the names are and the countries
whence they come. 1t is safe to say that
rot one-half the possible educational value
is met as long the trees remain without
labels of any kind
A practicable label must possess several
characteristics: % 1t must be of sufficient
size TO be easily legible at a considerable
distance, at least as far away as the CEN
ter of most streets; ~ it must be durable;
C}) it should he of moderate cost Expert
ments have been tried in various cities with
the view of producing label that combines
these ellen ents, and they seem to be best
met In one Of cast iron. with raised letters,
the groundwork and the faces of the let
tiers being PAINTED in contrasting colors
Labels painted on tin, zinc or porcelain
have been tried, but they fail to meet all
the requirements Any painted label IS
more or less deteriorated by the clements
and moreover is quite easily broken or
defaced. A cast-iron label while perhaps of
slightly greater initial expense than GER
tain Others, is practically indestructible and
even if the paint be allowed to wear off, is
still perfectly legible. although, of course.

In labelling the street trees of the city
i; would not be necessary to put a label in
front Of each individual tree, for for
tunately each street has usually been set
With a single species of tree; that is, GER
tain streets have been set with silver ma
pies. others with Norway naples etc A
single label at the corner of each square
would be sufficient. In such case it might
be well to have the upper line on the label
read: All trees in this square are = fol-
lowed on the second line with the common
name of the particular tree-the scientific
name should also be given, although it
need not be obtrusive-and the country of
which the tree is native. In the case of
trees and shrubs grown in the parks, a
separate label for each would be neces-
sary, but inasmuch the same form of
label could be used for each specimen of
the same species, the cost of additional
labels after The first one was nodded would
be comparatively slight.
