sible, and their replacement If this
must be done. Again within recent
years the increase of insect pests and
fungus diseases due to the introduce
ton of new species and varieties from
foreign countries and the importation
of European nursery stock has caused
widespread comment. Insect infesta-
tons among our tree friends, con-
dition which has been emphasized by
them in check and a notable decrease
in our native birds that prey on in
sects, have been of frequent occur
renee. In cities the paving of streets,
construction of sidewalks, laying of
sewers and gas and water mains, con-
duits for electric light, telephone and
telegraph wires all has very seriously
disturbed natural conditions and en-
dangered the life of the shade trees.
While it is realized that the care
and protection of shade trees is not
strictly within the province of for
estry, yet requests for information in
this direction have continually come
to the Office of the State Forester.
The State Forester is prepared to
answer inquiries for information by
mail with regard to shade trees
particularly what species to plant, the
injuries and diseases to which they
are subject, and to offer remedies for
these The First Biennial Report of
the State Forester deals with this
subject of shade trees in detail ans
may be obtained free of charge by
addressing him at Frankfort.

TREE PLANTING ALONG PUBLIC ROADS
Remarkable Development of Good Roads Sentiment in Ken
lucky Has Created Demand For Shade
Trees Along the Roads

lead to a great deal of good in the
community is the planting of nut bear
ing and fruit trees along the roads.
1t is felt that in this way the trees
along the highways could be made to
produce product of sufficient value
to aid in the maintenance of the road.
This has been successfully done in
several instances, particularly in Eu-
rope. With this end in view the State
Forester has been experimenting with
a large number of nut trees of differ
ent varieties including pecan, hickory,
black walnut, English walnut and 9TH
ers. Also the growing of apple trees
and other fruit trees along the road is
a suggestion which meets with a great
deal of favorable comment and the
nursery at Louisville has undertaken
the growing of apple stock on large
scale.
The Adair County news., 1915-09-01

The last year in Kentucky has seen
a wonderful agitation for good roads
throughout the State and at the pres
ent time large number of highways
are being constructed under the State
aid plan. There is no doubt but what
the number of good roads in Kentucky
will increase each year. The con-
struction of good roads and the stand
ardization of roads has created a de-
mand for shade trees along the rights
of way to beautify them. In anticipa-
tion of this demand the State Forester
is paying particular attention to the
raising at the State nurseries at Louis
vile and Frankfort trees particularly
adapted for planting along the public
highways. A good many species have
been suggested and one idea which
seems to have a firm root in the pub
lie mind and which may undoubtedly

GATHERING TREE SEEDS
An Infant Industry in Kentucky DeVel-
oped by Stale Nurseries.

The experience in growing trees at
the State nursery has shown very
clearly that in a great many cases it
is not possible to get tree seeds OF the
native species at the time and in the
condition desired. Kentucky is pecul-
Jar in that up to very recently there
has been no agency or individual in
terested in the gathering of tree seed
in its borders. The demand for the
tree seeds in the State nurseries at
louisville and Frankfort has started
IN a small way a new industry in the
gathering of tree seeds within the
State. Last year a considerable por-
ton of the seed planted was obtained
from Kentucky. Several small boys
had become interested in this line of
work and gathered a considerable
quantity of seed Of certain varieties.
1t is expected this fall that the bulk
of the seed planted in the State nur-
series will be obtained within the
State from native varieties. The gath
ering of tree seed offers an attractive
field for a limited number of individ-
uals, particularly bright boys, who are
willing to take the time and trouble
necessary to distinguish tree species.

The Moonlight Schools.

What can we do as teachers of
Adair county that will be any
more beneficial to our county
than to strive to hold to her in
that hOnOred position that she
has gained in moonlight schools?
May we as teacheys strive to-
reach that point when jlliteracy
may be erased from Adair coun-
ty. Our forefathers have fought
on the battle fields for our free
dom that we enjoy today and it
.behooves US, as teachers to fight
against iIIiteracy. He. who fights
the harder gains the victory.
May we realize our duty as SOL
diers fighting for education and
never let our duty chase US
around the corner when we are
commanded to fire. If it does
may it chase US off the battle
field of the profession. For by
our works they shall know US.

Sensible Women Know
Foundation of Health

AS health talks to women become
more general, both in the newspapers
ana on the platform, the mass of women
are beginning to realize what the more
cultivated have always known, that
good health cannot be found in a powder
1ox. The externalS of health may be
obtained in that way, but the basis of
aeaIth lies deeper, and yet is just as
easily obtained.
The most important thing that a
woman can do for herself, and about
which she is often most neglectful, is
TO watch the condition of her stomach
and bowels. The weary eyes, the bad
breath, the frequent headaches, the
pimpleS, the general air of lassitude is
stipation or indigestion, or both. Many
simple remedies can be obtained, but
the best in the estimation. of most
women is DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin.

exactly suited to her needs. 1t is far

INTERESTIN SHADE TREES
State Forester Prepared to Answer
Questions With Regard to
Shade Trees.

With every passing year the inter-
est of the citizens of Kentucky in the
shade trees of the cities, towns and
villages, along public highways and
on private lands and estates has be-
come more keen, for the reason that
our people as a whole are gradually
coming to an appreciation Of the
worth of individual trees and of tree
communities from an aesthetical
point of view, and are alive to their
value as factors for health and COM
fort in the community. This is nat
ural development in line with an
awakening public interest in parks,
public Fairgrounds, better roads and
highways and the development of at
tractive surroundings on the farm
In all this the trees play a very inn
portant part. Then, too, throughout
the state the present shade trees,
which are to a very considerable ex-
tent remnants of the original forest,
are decaying, deteriorating and dying.
Their owners are interested most de-
cidedly in their preservation, If pos

EXPERIMENTAL FOREST.
Permanent Exhibit at the State Fair
in Louisville.

In conjunction with the forest nur-
sery at Louisville, there is being es-
tablished an experimental forest
which will also be a permanent ex-
hibit in connection with the State
Fair. It is expected in this expert
mental forest to show on a small
scale what may be done on any farm
in Kentucky in the way of raising
wood material, and will be of IN
doubted interest to farmers and
others who have already wood lots on
their land or expect to plant them
either for the material or for the pur-
pose of soil fixation and regeneration.
This forest will be situated on the
bank of the Ohio river, and, in addi-
ton to furnishing a demonstration of
what can be done in the way of prac-
tical forestry, it will also afford a
wind-break for the state nursery, and
will serve to hold the bank of the
Ohio river in It's present place.
