RAILROAD Sees
NEED OF TREES
- -
Free Transportation Of Ship
ments as Belong to
Municipalities.
tBy Prof. rhos. shaw.)

In order to promote the planting of
trees. the Great Northern railway will
handle over its lines. free Of freight
charges. such shipments Of trees as
belong to the states or municipalities.
the law permitting such free trans
portation for state OF municipal gov
ernments.
In many portions Of the northwest
the scarcity Of trees for both shelter
and protection is very noticeable. The
impression made upon the traveller
and prospective resident is Of the
most unfavorable character.
The value of trees for protection
and shade on the northwestern prair-
les cannot be over-estimated. The
most troublesome climatic agency ie
the wind. While the farmer cannot
keep the wind from blowing over the
prairies. he may keep it from blow
buildings that are planted beside 1t.
He cannot lower the degrees Of cold
in his state, but he can moderate the
temperature greatly by growing a
windbreak and a grove around his
home.
Many Of the towns, especially in the
new country. have an equally bleak
appearance. They are very often
without any trees. The impression
thus made on the minds Of home
seekers or would-be investors is prac-
tically harmful, for it at once con
veys the impression to their minds
h a trees annot be grown. The
conclusion thus reached is not un-
natural.
This can and should be corrected
The farmer may grow trees to pro-
tect his home. and the Inhabitants
OF the towns can grow trees to pro-
tect their homes and to beautify their
streets. The Great Northern railroad
will carry trees free. over its lines, for
state and municipal governments,
when destined to any point on the
Great Northern railroad in North Da-
kota. South Dakota or Montana.
In order to make c sure on
farms In the absence Of irrigation, 1t
Is advisable to prepare the land the
year previous to planting. This is
done by breaking the ground up deep
handling carefully on the summer
fallow plan. This encourages the de-
cay OF the sod and aids materially
In the retention Of the moisture. The
trees should he planted the following
spring and as early as the ground
IAN be worked. Where water is avail
able the problem liz easy. But even
Wnere water can be applied,
1t is a decided advantage to have the
ground thus prepared the year previ-
GUS to planting. This. Of course, Ia
not necessary where e are planted
In b%oulevards and the sides OF the
streets where they can be watered for
a time and otherwise cared for.
It ia greatly to be desired that all
towns and villages in need of trees
and shade will take advantage of this
ofer. and that they will do so tho
coming season.
