The Union Pa eific railway authorities
are out IN a circular on the subject of
advertising maps, timetables or circu-
lars that solicitors are urging on the
towns and business men along their
lines. That these schemes may be bad,
good or Indifferent, that none are au-
thorIzed or backed by the company,
and that "Any such solicitor of adver-
tising, who represents himself as be-
ing connected with this Company, eth
er directly or indirectly, is a fraud and
should be so treated. "
So when these fellows come around
treat their scheme wholly on its merits

the Winter.

comes. Chains have been thrown around
them to lend support. Undoubtedly the
filling and cem"nting has been the most
i'm brtant work of the dentists" since
81 ycs of cavities have been found in
t trees, which meant rapid decay un-
FISs che ckcG.
Many of the trees which are being
treated have an historic interest. Almost
since the White House was built it was
a fashion with the Presidents to plant
trees: of them. perhaps President Nc
kinley was the most notable. \ beautiful
young oak was planted by him. which
now stands near the Executive offices,
and which is also receiving some slight
attention from the dentists.
The big ash tree at the northeast cor
ner of the White House grounds, on
Pennsylvania avenue, has been given an
extensive treatment with gravel and
cement. The hollow of this tree extends
from the branch for ten feet up toward
the first branch. Not only is it being
filled, but iron bolts are being stretched
across to hold the hollow trunks to-
gether.
The work is being done by three three
experts from Ohio, under contract with
the Superintendent of Public Buildings
and Grounds. When it is completed, the
White House trees will be in condition
to survive the elements for many years
to come.
