TREE PLANTING IN URBAN
AND SUBURBAN STREETS

At last meeting of the Kaimuki and
PaloIo Improvement Club the following
2aper by Mr.. Haughs, of the forestry
staff OF the Board of Agriculture and
Forestry. was read and ordered to be
published:

To the Members of the Kaimuld and
PaIolo Improvement Club, Homo
lulu.
Gentlemen: [ herewith submit few
remarks on tree planting on streets
and highways which may be of inter
est to You.
In the United States as we'll as Eu-
ropean countries the planting of streets
and highways with trees has been in
force from time ipmeruoriaI. and the
subject mas been debated in every
town or village of any Importance, so
that now there is well defined plan
SIS regards the planting of trees on
thoroughfares.
The subject of selecting the varieties
most suitable for the different soils
and locations. however. still remains
topic Of local debate.
The trees mentioned on your list are
the best obtainable for the district in
tended TO be planted. and By following
the general rules laid down in other
countries on the arrangement of trees
on streets and highways. the danger
Of failure or unfavorable criticism will
be reduced to a minimum. if the trees .
are properly cared for after setting
out.

STREET PLANTING.
There are many reasons why trees
should be planted in cities and vii
lagos During the hot days of summer
the streets which are shaded by trees
are preferred to those which lack this
protection. The temperature is much
lower; and as the pavements are not
exposed to the glare of the sun, there
is less of reflected heat. The streets
that are lined with shade trees are
more attractive to the eye; and their

are no trees. The shaded streets be |

DIGNITY AND TROUBLE.


The rector of one of the oldest
churches in the nelghborhoOd of New
York was recently asked if it did not
inspire him to know that he was car
rying on a work begun two hundred
years ago. The New York Tribune
gives his reply.
''The age of the church does add
dignity to the work." he said guarded
ly. But it brings a flood of trouble
to me. particularly at the present time,
when interest in genealogical matters
is practically universal.
IAN old church is supposed to have,
generally does have, records" the rec
tor continued. Records are Invaluable
to some persons, especially those who
are working out a family tree. They
come to see me about them, they write
to me, and one man even sent me uhis
telegram:
"'WiEe me full name Of my great.
grandfather, christened in your church
by John and Mary Smith,"
HE wanted it to continue gene.
illogical investigation in Boston, and
after an hour of hard work l found
it," said the rector, rather YEARLY
People do not seem to realize that
one is not particularly interested in
the tree of another family. A woman
came to see me the other day and
said as though she were comforting
the greatest possible favor:
:" I am perfectly willing you should
help me go through the church rec
ords. 1t will be so Interestingly
II gave her the christening book
without remarking that to go through
it would not be altogether novelty
for me, and left the room. When
returned she was in the act of CUTTING
out an entry which referred to hel
family! She wanted to frame 1t 70,
her library. You can see for your
SELF" said the rector, in conclusion
that there are drawbacks in beins
connected with an old church."

such that you can cook eggs if you only

Zeal was not wanting, and the pas
sengers worked as hard as they had
done the night before. The line was
gradually completed. One by one the
sleepers were replaced, the rails were laid
end to end, and about o'clock in the
afternoon the gap was bridged.
At once the engine began to advance
slowly, the cars following until they
were over the temporary track and safe
again. Now the road is clear to Tchar-
kalyk; what do l say? to Pekin.
We resume our places. Popof gives
