Novel Plan Whereby Knoxville Chill.

In conjunction with the City Beauti-

Knoxville, Tenn. a place of great

distribute 1000 catalpa trees on
March Is to the Junior League of the

posed largely of children of the city
schools.
The plan is to furnish every child in
the city schools catalpa tree bearing
card of instructions. The cost will
be only cent. This card. which gives
instructions as to the care Of the tree
from the time it is set out until ma
turity. was issued by the United
States bureau of forestry. AS may be
readily seen. the cent is only small
portion of the cost of the tree and will
about pay for the printing of the in
struction card. 1t originally was in
tended to give the trees away abso-
lutely free. but it was decided to place
the nominal price of | cent on them
so that they will be looked upon with
value by the children.
