Foliage and Health

Shade is essential to perfect
health in Florida.
A good many enterprising de-
velopers of suburban residence
properties appear to hate a tree
with a cordial hatred. Getting
possession of a new area for such
development their first Improve
ment" is to cut down every bit OF
natural growth that shows above
the scanty grass, as if it were pol
luton. And by and by, when
pretty bungalows and homes stand
out on the landscape they discov-
er, or the new home owners dis
cover, that the greatest lack is
shade. Then they proceed to re-
place what misguided judgement
destroyed, and it takes from ten
to twenty years TO get PACK What
they started with.
A well shaded residence lot is
worth from ten to fifty per cent
more than the same lot without
trees.
But there is a distinction be-
tween proper shading of a home
and a dense underground of
shrubs and bushes. The former
rises in the shape of well foliaged
trees to protect the second story
windows and the upper part of the
house, as well as the lower part.
The latter covers the ground,
keeps it damp and musty and un-
healthy and provides splendid

A careful balance between shade
and sunshine is most to be desired.
exposure to the glare OF
the summer sun, especially in Flor
ida, brings an undue tax upon the
nervous system. We seek rest in
the shade, not in the place where
the suns rays beat down hard
and hot.
Vegetation absorbs carbonic
acid gas from the atmosphere, a
gas that is injurious and in APP
preciable quantities poisonous to
animal life. This action of trees
in clearing the atmosphere of this
noxious gas is strong, especially in
the vicinity of large pine forests.
There is another part that trees
and vegetation play in our lives,
which appeals to the aesthetic
side Of our natures. Florida has
a larger variety of trees than any
other state in the Union. From
these there is ample choice in
which may be combined the utili-
ty that conserves our physical
health and the beauty that touch
es our artistic natures.
Coming for the first time into
city or town the visitor gathers
his initial Impressions, good or bad
from the presence or absence of
trees and flowers. Well shaded
streets are an invitation to remain,
Bare stretches Of sand suggest a
short stay. From the surround
ings of the railway station seen
through the car windows, one in
stinctively draws conclusions as
to the character Of the town and
its people. Vistas of shaded
drives approaching the station,
cultivated flowers carefully tend
ed, call for favoring comment and
compliment. The stations along
the Pennsylvania railroad north
from Washington, illustrate the
point, and what can be done along
the Jersey flats may be done more
easily and quicker in Florida.
Florida railroad managers
would do well to pay some atten-
ton to this matter. 1t might be
accomplished by offering substan-
tial rewards to station masters a
long their respective lines for tht
:
best kept, cleanest station anc
surroundings, emphasizing th'
cultivation of trees and flowers
And in these efforts the coopera
ton Of the artistic people of The
towns could well be enlisted.
The matter-of-fact utilitarian
may scott at the proposition, but
III would be one of the most effec-
I tive advertisements that could be
bought for the money. Nature
and natural beauty appeal to us
all. The sacrifice Of nature s
beauties hurts, if it does not even
disgust us.
Trees have three distinctive
values, if not more: Their com
mercial worth, their value to the
health of the community, and
that value which appeals to the
aesthetic sense. The two latter
frequently, if not usually are sac.
rifced and forgotten when the
nocketbook value is satisfied. It's
an unfair use Of one of Florida s
biggest assets-State Board of
