STREET TREES VALUE.

They Increase Price Of Real Estate and
Make Town Attractive.
Not all ones time and means should
be given to, ones own premises. OPP
portunities are many for caring for
public property where the same repre-
sents value to you that should be
plain to see. In the district where the
writer lives several Of us gave S. each
to save some oaks on: In the street
One man, In front of whose place grew
very fine tree, gave $40 and would If
necessary have given more IN order to
preserve it. We all benefit by the
presence OF these trees. and the value
of real estate and the reputation Of the
neighborhood are benefited by the pres
ervation of all such trees.
A case is known where a land COM
pany In putting new tract upon the
market ran the sidewalk around q
large tree. Inasmuch as they were
ignorant of what tree needs most
(air) they had the cement walk placed
close about the tree. In grading the
street they took of the best one or two
feet of soil. AS if this was not suf1
cient to destroy any tree. they oiled
the street. Any ordinarily intelligent
individual should have known that the
tree would die, and no doubt the
agents suspected as much, but they
were selling lots, and. as rule, rank
deception is part Of the game OF
course the tree died. and in time some
one cut it down for fuel. Later some
boys set fire to the stump. and great
hole was burned In the earth. Comes
now an enterprising, public spirited
citizen, one Of those good souls who
are Of the veritable "salt of the earth"
He caused deep hole to be dug. the
full size Of the opening through the
cement. Good soil was placed therein
and young tree planted. Now for the
sequel. The young tree grew apace, and
few years after the lot in front of
which the tree grew was sold at sever
al hundred dollars more than were ask
ed for the adjoininglots. Do street trees
have value? Another question arises
which is not difficult of solution: If
they have value so high as demon
strated by the above instanced sale,
why do we not pass reasonable
street tree ordinance and provide suf-
ficient city forestry department? II
number Of people demanded such
legislation it would be enacted.

amount Of shade and In many cases
are not located to- good advantage.
Tree day is to be day OF celebration.
Holes for the trees to be given will be
dug in advance. so that everything
will be in readiness. It is planned to
plant double row entirely surround
ing the park and to fill in vacant spots.
The idea has met with instant favor,
and it is expected that the school chill
dren. lodges. societies and the citizens
in general will take it up. During the
past year number Of concrete walks
have been built, fountain has been
installed. the band stand has been re-
constructed. a 200 has been started.
and many flower beds have been laid
out and maintained throughout the
summer. The citizens have been lib
eral to the park, and caretaker has
been constantly on duty. Next years
tax levy includes two cent park tax,
which will create a considerable i'm
provement fund. When needed the
services of the 1900 park boosters, or
the members Of the Junior Park asso-
citation. to give them. more dignifed
name. have been called In, and it is in
tended to use the boys in the future.
