How to Plant a Tree.

Most trees are given too restricted
hole. Dig the holes at least six feet in
diameter and get some experienced per-
son who is used to handling it. if such
be available. to discharge two or three
sticks of dynamite in the bottoms near
the sides IN order to loosen up the sur
rounding earth to make running ground
for the tree roots later on.
The holes should be at least n foot
deeper than the depth at which the
trees are to be planted, and this space
is to be filled in with broken stone COW
cred with soil. on which the trees will
rest. This will insure that good drain
age which is necessary for all trees not
of the swamp kind. In the more south
ern portions of the country, where the
ground dries out during periods of
drought to a depth of several feet,
drain tiles should be laid in the bot
toms of the holes. and one tile with the
bell level with the top of the ground
set perpendicular, to be used in water
ing the trees when needed. This is an
especially good idea for street trees.
but the tile top should be protected by
an iron curb box.
