ters second term in the White House 1t was in
1872 that Mr.. Morton conceived the idea of this
unique holiday and he forthwith introduced be
fore the Nebraska State Board Of Agriculture, OF
which he was member, a resolution setting
apart April 10 OF thai year as tree planting day.
The legislature finally adopted the resolution
as proposed by Mr. Morton, although some OF
his colleagues thought that Sylvan Day" would
be a better dte for the newly-created festival.
and there is portion of the public that inclines
/ to this belief today. The new scheme proved an
{ emphatic success and more than one million
trees were planted throughout Nebraska on that
first Arbor Day not only were the children of
the public schools interested from the outset but
individuals and local societies Of various kinds
participated This was due in part no doubt, to
the fact that the Nebraska State Board of Agri-
. culture. which created the holiday, offered prize
Of hundred dollars to the agricultural society
of that county which planted properly the largest
number of trees, and provided a farm library
and purse of twenty-five dollars for the person
who planted the largest number of trees.
The next year Arbor Day observed through
out Nebraska with increasing enthusiasm and in
1874 the governor, by official proclamation, desig
mated the second Wednesday Of April as Arbor
Day for Nebraska. In 1855 when the legislature
of the state formally designated Arbor Day as
holiday the date was changed to April %. If Ne
braska be taken example, the influence
of ArbOr Day is certainly most beneficial and the
only pity is that other states could not have
placed the holiday on their official calendars as
early as did Nebraska. Statistics show that in
a period of sixteen years following the date
which Farmer Morton secured the adoption Of
the Arbor Day project total of three hundred
and fifty million trees and vines were planted in
Nebraska as the direct outcome of this move.

The first states to follow the example of Ne

there followed a steady procession Of other states
the legislatures OF which became converts 70 -Le
popular idea In 1887 the movement took roo-
in Canada, the Educational Department OF On
tario setting apart a day which tie trustees OF
every rural school and incorporated village were
desired to plant shade trees and make flower
beds. oddly enough, the State OF New York did
not fall into line in this movement until the year
1888, but when the state legislature did take up
the matter it enacted very explicit legislation,
prescribing for exercises in the public schools
tending to encourage the planting, protection and
preservation of trees and shrubs
Thus far only one foreign country has adopted
the American holiday known as Arbor Day. The
nation that has paid us this compliment of imi-
tation is Spain, but in the land of the Dons the
festival is known as fiesta del Arbol meaning
the Fete of the Tree. The Spanish holiday
inaugurated in 1896 and is celebrated earlier than
in this country-namey, on March 2S. On the
first Tree Day in Spain the young King Alfonso
with the queen regent and the ladies of the court
proceeded to grounds situated near the village of
Hortazela some two miles distant from Madrid
Here the king planted a pine sapling and two
thousand children selected from the schools of
Madrid Immediately followed his example. Then
gold medals commemorative of the event and
duly inscribed with the date were distributed
among the youthful tree planters Although only
Spain has actually copied the Yankee customs Of
France. Great Britain, Japan and New Zealand,
have holidays that very similar to our tree
planting festival.
1t is probable that very few of the children who
plant trees assist in planting trees Arbor
Day realize that the United States government
maintains big institution the primary purpose
of which is not merely to encourage but actually
to carry on tree planting. This establishment,
for the employees of which every day in the year
is Arbor Day, is known as the Division of Silvi-
culture and is a branch of the U. S. Forest Serv-
ice. In the average year UNCLE Sans official
tree planters set out upwards of half million
trees, most of them located in the national for
ests. Moreover, not only does Uncle Sam main
tain his own nurseries a source of supply for
his perpetual tree planting campaign, but he also
aids private owners who desire to set out trees
their property. Finally, Uncle Sam Is con-
Quoting valuable experiments in nursery opera
tions and planting work in cooperation with nine
different universities and state agricultural ex-
pertinent stations The object Of these expert
ments is to ascertain what species best adapt
ed to different regions and to improve methods
of planting and cultivation.

The "change of life" is a most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near is not
without reason.
When her system is in a de-
ranged condition, she may be
predisposed to apCplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. At this
time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread Of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
