APPEAL FOR TREES
THAT NEED WATER

Editor Press-Dear Sir: I have
been waiting. hoping someone would
take up the matter of our shade trees.
Some years ago they were planted in
most parts of the city and cared for
at considerable expense. Now, where
curbing has been put in, the trees are
left to die for want of sufficient wa
ter OF with no water at all. They
tell me it is the city who is respon-
sible for them. Where they are wa
tered at all, it is by means of tiny
furrow-if SO it may be called-total-
ly inadequate for carrying sufficient
water for small plants, to say nothing
of large trees, with no trench around
the trees for holding water till it
can sink deep around the roots. With
paved streets and sidewalk, we need
the grateful protection from the suns
glare that trees afford, especially in
this hot climate, where the sun gets
in it's work 365 days in the year.
There are many blocks, especially
mort, of Main street, where the trees
must have water now to save them
large trees that it is great pity to
lose. F. M'KUSICK.

been his purpose to call together a
