SAVE THE BANKS
Growing of Trees and Shurbbery
Will Prevet Wearing Away
by Stream

Save the banks of your rayines,
creeks and rivers by encouraging
grass, shurbs and trees to grow on
them. Where you find the bank of a
stream perpendicular you will usually
find tree on its top which protects
it until the support beneath is washed
away, when it tumbles to a watery
grave. This reminds us that our
streams are ever increasing in width,
and many of us can recall when the
fence stood rod closer to the center
% the stream.
The same may be said of the banks
of deep cuts along highways and rail-
roads. If there is blue grass sod
on top the bank it will be perpen-
dicular for six to twelve inches, and
the nude roots form a miniature ledge
which is sufficient to show the value
of blue grass as soil binder. If it is
not desirable to plant shurbs and
trees on the roadside banks, SOW the
slopes with blue grass seed, and scat
ter corn stalks on it, which may be
prevented from washing away by
weighing them down with pieces Of
old rails, brush, etc. When the blue
grass is well set the wash will be
stopped.
The banks of creeks and rivers
may be best protected by planting
Willows at the base. At the top
White Ash, Black Walnut, Oaks and
Hickories may be planted, choosing
the species best adapted to the soil
conditions. If the bank is low and
fiat Sycamore and Elm may be sci
back of the Willows. If conditions
will warrant trees Of a higher com.
mercial value then Elm and Sycamore
should be planted. The slope Of the
banks should be sown with blue grass
and if there "a too much shade fol
blue grass, they should be planted
with vines and shrubs that will en-
dure shade such as American Sarsapa
rilla, briars, Cornels, Bladder Nut
Wahoo, Wafer Ash, etc.
Neglect to fortify the banks of ON
streams means an annual loss Of many
acres of valuable land, whereas il
they were planted with trees, the,
would not only be protected, but
would grow valuable timber.

ems for the suspension of the rules
In which several heated statements
were made.
Representative Jesse Eshbacb, of

the bill had been enacted and the
expense incurred by a Republican
legislature in 1907 and that Republic
cans were seeking now to avoid the
meeting of the obligation.
Eshbach resented the allusion and
stated that his reasons for Directing

that few days delay would make
no difference and further because
above all others, Representative Cra-
vens has been opposed to the suspen-
sion of the rules. The motion for sus-
