Davis, Okla, Nov. 15.-Letters to
many bankers and state officials or
Oklahoma are being sent out by {.
c. Caldwell of this city. requesting
them 10 become members of a new
organization to be known as the
Bankers Club 1t is proposed to
build a rustic club house of cedar
logs ON Honey Creek. near Turner

To build the club house and i'm.
prove the 20-acre tract just secured
by Mr.. Caldwell, it is estimated that
fully $4,000 will be required. Based
upon this estimate, Mr.. Caldwell and
other local bankers have decided to
capitalize the association at $4,000
and offer shares at $40, their par
value. Every penny of the amount
raised will be used in general inn
proyements. 1t is believed that fully
fifty members can be secured before

PLANTING OF SHADE TREES.
Fall Best Time IL Weather Conditions
Are Favorable.

Saltwater, Okla, Nov. 15.-Shade
trees are best planted in the fall of
the year if weather conditions are ia
vorable, is the information contained
in a recently issued bulletin from
the Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege During the last few years, how
ever, the fall has not been the most
propitious season, while spring it
self has had nothing to offer since
the summers have been both hot and
dry therefore serious to transplanted
trees. Under the old rule that one err
treme follows another, the bulletin
says, and since the weather conditions
are fair for transplanting trees, this
should be taken advantage of.
During the last three years there
have been good tests of the capacity
of trees to withstand drouths. At the
college experimental station none of
the varieties have shown greater abil-
ity in this respect than the green ash.
The ash is not fast growing tree, the
soft maple and many others making
a much more rapid growth, but the
ash is certain. Today the naples are
dead the catalpa severely injured and
even the black locusts are slightly
injured at the experimental station.
The three which appear to make the
best showing under conditions as eX-
listing is the ash, the honey locust
culture has been on heavy clay up
land SOIL whereas had 1t been in
lighter soil, particularly on bottom,
with the water table close to the sur
face. it would have been different,
the bulletin says.
The bulletin places the elm in the
class of fine shade trees owing to its
heavy wood, being tough and strong
thus able to Withstand strong winds.
The ash is something like the elm, the
wood being strong and tough, and
slow of growth. The top is more up
right than the elm. 1t makes a good
shade and is always a cheerful, bright
green tint, and not easily affected by
the dust that is often prevalent along
roadways. In a general way the ash
is remarkably free from insect pests.
The honey locsst, another good tree,
Is something similar to the black 10
Gust in growth and outline, however,
more hardy and vigorous. 1t may not
produce the growth in a single seas
on as does the black locust, but il
is freer from insect injury and is
better armed to protect the bird life
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1911-11-16

that may resort in its branches. A
characteristic of the honey locust,
the bulletin says, is its long, sharp
thorns that not only appear on the
small limbs and branches, but on the
main trunk as well, thus making it i'm
possible for even the persistent small
boy to ascend and seek eggs from the
nests of song birds or insect eaters.
This tree is not recommended as a
shade for paths or walks.
