A patriotic and farsighted wealthy
resident Of Monterey, Cal, 4 few years
ago organized what he was pleased to
style the Tin Can club from the fact
that the children who became men,
bers were urged to start seeding or
small trees In tin cans. to care for
them indoors until they were large
enough to set them out and then put
them in the ground. From this small
beginning the movement has spread
until 1t has extended to several other
states, the title Of the club being
changed to the Tree Growing Clubs Of
America. Last year. one California
club made arraneenAnts with one
man to plant 10000 trees suitable for
lumber purposes, 1t being agreed to
pay 10 cents for each tree planted and
guaranteed to grow In Solano county
the supervisors offered q dollar for
each black walnut tree planted by the
clubs On the public highways, while in
other localities and 10 cents apiece
was paid for trees planted in the
streets and parks. Another practical
phase Of the work Of the clubs lies In
the fact that the members are asked
to send to the officers Information
about the trees growing in their re-
epective localities, together with a de-
scr1ption Of the soil and climatic con-
dittcns under which difEereat varieties
do best, 50 that specific directions may
be given as to planting and care.
