ADVISES
CITY TO START
TREE NURSERY

Park Superintendent Ford and City
Forester Spray today suggested to the
board of public works the establish
ment of a tree nursery at Glen Miller
park for the purpose of raising shade
trees. Mr.. Spray said that an acre of
park and could be set out in young
shade trees at cost Of between $500
and $500 and that in five or six years
time the nursery would be municipal
asset Trees could be sold property
owners for much less than what they
would pay nursery companies for them
and at the same time they would yield
profit to the city. Young trees for
replacing the old ones in the parks
could also be raised in this nursery.
To Consider Plan.
"Trees in this municipal nursery
would receive especial care and would
within a few years be in great demand
by the property owners" Mr.. Spray
said. "Richmond's shade trees, for
which it was once famous, are now in
a deplorable condition and are dying
rapidly because they have never been
properly cared for, as a whole. With
a municipal nursery these old trees
could be replaced within a few years
by healthy young ones. l would adj
wise planting in the nursery Norway
naples, European sycamores, pin oaks
and red oaks"

July wheat gained 1&c.
Practically all news today was bull
ish, but the chief factory in the ad-
vance was the fact that Minneapolis

developed a panic stricken buying
spirit, paying as much as 8 cents a

grades of cash wheat.
Export sales were about normal for
war times, about two million bushels
the most of it sold here. but re-
porte credited that the Rockefeller
foundation, buying to feed Belgium,
had plunged into the May wheat mar
ket and would demand grain next
spring.
The bear arguments that there were
| 80 900 900 bushels of wheat in Chlca-
soon be in the war and open the Oar
danelles for Russian supplies for west
ern Europe, we're the early factors
forcing May and July wheat cent
under yesterday, but they could not
stand against the milling news. The
best cash wheat sold today at $1.36 %
and sales were large.
Corn was strong and higher, gaining
asmhc on the days trades, and oats
were up "A to 1c The latter was due
to exports, also held nearly 100000
bushels. Provisions showed practi
cally no change.
