City Forester never does anything In

which prohibited property owners
from trimming, spraying or otherwise

er Of 81 per tree. The City Forester
is never heard from in summer.
Hence Chicago trees are dying OF BY
thousands, except on boulevards
where the money Of the taxpayers Is
expended for the very rich, by park
boards. Winter being here and no
trees in leaf, the City Forester has
crawled out from under the pay roll
long enough to sound his usual winter
warning through the fad loving daily
press. The tussock moth is here, the
high salaried fellow declares. The
tussock moth evidently doesn't fear
the snow or the cold. That is why
the CITY Forester calls attention to
It in winter. The yawp published in
the dailies is interesting to the stu.
dent Of fad conology, such as the City
Forester turns out.
Tussock moths are a danger to
human comfort" and to tree life, &C.
cording to the City Forester.
During July and August" the re-
port says, "the tussock moth was In
its larva stage and doing an unlim

to be increasing rapidly in Chicago

II the City Forester does any work,

cost Of the latter being 25 cents per

The only way out Of this labyrinth
Of falsehood and pretense Is to let the
property owners attend to their own
trees and Chicago will once more
have trees on her residence streets.
The City Forester fad Is played out.
Besides II Is too much Of task on
any mans Imagination to force him
to work up a report Of what the fores.
