Like the birch, 1t should be planted

The Colorado blue spruce is the
most striking Of all evergreens on &C
count Of its silvery blue color. 1t is
hardy in northern ATTITUDES, but
should have some protection against
south winds. as, indeed, all evergreens
should. It grows into symmetrical
form, and because Of its acknowledged
beauty should be generally planted.
The red cedar is one of the hardest
OF the evergreens, growing wild in the
western portion of the state. 1t starts
rather slowly, but soon grows about
q foot a year, becoming a compact
and very ornamental tree.
The Black Hills spruce is a form

They should be grown for the most

The average lawn requires but few

Planting in irregular masses about
the boundaries Of the place and close

expanse Of lawn between, will give
the best results.
We have over 80 shrubs growing
upon the station grounds and there
are very many more suited to this
latitude. There are several trees, like
