CITY TO OBSERVE
STATE ARBOR DAY
Schools to Have Exercises
and the Pupils Will Plant
Trees.

Arbor day, April II, will be observed
at the various schools of the city by
the planting of trees and shrubbery,
and a program fitting to the day Ar
bOr day is now compulsory in the
schools Of the state, as a recent law
enacted states that a day shall be
set aside each year for the planting
OF trees, vines and shrubbery.
The planting of trees should be
done in accordance with the bulletin
issued by the state forester The
bulletin says that not only tree plant
Ing be in order at this time, but also
timely occasion for the pruning and
trimming of trees. The bulletin
strongly opposes tree butchery" that
is often INDUCED in by those ignorant
of the harmful results.
The bulletin says that shade trees
should be gone over every two or three
years, for these trees need as much
attention as fruit trees. Where in
sects have been at work the tree
should be painted with a broad band
OF "tangle-foot.' All broken or de-
cayed limbs should be removed, but
care should be taken not to break the
bark of the trunk. This can be avoid
ed by saving the limb to some depth
on the bottom side before working on
the upper side.
The scar should be painted over to
keep out decay.
Where disease has attacked a tree
or hollow has resulted from some
cause, the cavity should be thoroughly
cleaned Of dpcayad wood opd tbop
filled with a rich mixture of cement.
Neglect of these simple precautions
may cause the ruination of a shade
tree that is fifty years old The trees
should be closely watched for cater
pillars and other insects, for the trees
along an entire street may be de-
stToyed before anything can be done
to save them. Trees should be care
fully watched for signs OF disease, for
if taken care Of in time a tree may
generally be saved.

Feltcorn was literally applauded for his solo work with the cornet in In the Candle Light.
 The municipal concerts started on the first Friday evening of July and they have been held with uniform suc- cess weekly.
