There is no one day at this time of the year that is better than an other for the planting of trees and shrubs. It oes not mean that trees planned on Arbor day will positively thrive, or that they will grow any better than as if set out the day be- fore or the day after, but there is need of a concerted endeavor in every state for giving special consideration to nature and for the encoura cement of Identification of home grounds and streets. The setting aside of a par ticular day calls forth greater atten- tion and a better response than as if 1t was. left to the individual to re- spond when he pleased to such an inn portant matter. It is also a day with it's educational value.-Norwich Bull letin.
