Plant Tree.

Plant trees because Texas needs
them. Already this state has more
standing timber than Maine, but II is
standing in the wrong place. The
500 mile stretch between Fort Worth
and III Paso is bare Of forests, save
for the scrub cedars on some OF the
hills at widely separated intervals,
The 400 mile stretch from Fort
Worth To- the Panhandle borders Is
also bare OF trees save for the natural
forest in Palo Duro canyon. And
this forest is the only one deserving
the name in all the $4,000 square
miles OF area embraced in West Tex
as and the Panhandle.
Pant trees because there's money
in them. True, West Texas and the
Panhandle cannot be expected TO
raise mahogany or walnut or spruce
or white pine, suitable for buildings
and furniture, but they can raise
cottonwood and locust quickly and
cheaply. Cottonwood can be used
for making boxes and locust will
