WHAT TREES TO PLANT
TO SUIT CLIMATE
Information Office of Department of Ag-
riculture Makes Suggestions For
Guidance in Beautifying
Grounds.

What kind of trees shall we plant Y
beautify our grounds?
What shrubs would be suited to om
school yards?
These are questions which are fre
quently asked the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Soil and climatic
conditions differ so greatly in the differ
ent sections OF the United States that II
answering such questions special consid
Grafton has to be given each section. The
departments specialists have prepared a
list of trees and shrubs suited for gen
eral use on private grounds, streets, pri-
vate parks and school yards for each OF
five general divisions of the United
States. The five divisions are as fol-
lows
!. New England states, New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, West
Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan,
Illinois, Missouri, Iowa.
2. Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Ten
nessee, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi
Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Tex
as.
3. Wisconsin. Minnesota. North Da-
kota. South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Colorado, Wyoming Montana and Idaho.
4. New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Ne
vada.
5. California Oregon and Washington.
These lists are merely suggestive, but
they include such trees and shrubs as
seem well adapted to the particular %
ealitv. and they may be of assistance to
those who are interested in the beautifi
cation of towns and cities. Here is a
list:

WATERBURY.
Town Of Duxbury Laying Plans For Re
building Town Hall.

| The town OF DuNbufy carried an lh'
surance on the town hall building burned
yesterday of $4,000 in the Union Mutual
Co. of Montpelier. This building was
erected in the summer of 1894 and dedi'
Gated on oct. 10 of that year. Previous
TO that time hall had been used ia
the old Lyman tavern, one OF the hostel
res much used in stage coach days. This
building had burned, the site purchased
and this substantial two-story building
erected. In this hall have been held not
only the town meetings, but all social
and religious gatherings. Another loser
not mentioned yesterday was the Whire
Memorial Sunday school, which lost Ii
brary and other equipment. Dillingham;
grange probably lost close TO $1,000 worth
of kitchen and lodge furnishings as well
as not having any place for meetings.
This grange now numbers over 100 mem-
bers. Later estimates on the loss to the
town place IL at $4,000, less the insuf-
ance. Two road machines belonging TO
the town were hauled out from under the
building. Electric light men were on
the scene Of the fire and were kept busy
wetting down the poles in close proxim
ity TO the building. Measures for re-
building will probably be begun at once.
The location is a very desirable one, di-
rectly across the river from this village
back OF the Vermont state hospital for
the insane. The town owns about three.
quarters of an acre, which means good
playground for the children. As there
has been much talk of centralizing schools
at this point, conversation now turns to
the advisabiity Of a two-room school be-
side a hall in new building. The walls
were all down, chimney fallen and blaze
well out except in the cellar yesterday.
The safe, containing town records, fell
face downward 1t is hoped all books
are intact. Roofs of the nearby build
ings were carefully watched all the aft
ernoon and were kept wet a large num-
Der came from Waterbury village AMI
from distances in town Of two or three
miles. Beside the property loss, each
felt sorrow at the destroying of so good
a structure.
About 45 people, members Of the -
club and guests, enjoyed their banquet
at the inn last night and then had the
pleasure of listening to the Hon. w. T..
United States senator He
was introduced by w y. Clark, president
Of the club. Mr.. Dillingham; held the
close attention OF his home town audi
ence as he gave many facts concerning
Vermont's resources and water power. |
AS usual, he made all feel that there /
are great possibilities in our state which |
are scarcely opened. The members of |
the club felt very grateful to him for
his interest in their work and his en-
address.
Miss Kathleen I.eBarron is at Bona
" ntin farm for the Easter recess. Roy |
JeBarron arrives Thursday from the Uni
yersity of Vermont and will be accom-
panied by Mr. Merrill Of the same in
stitution.

though not vet able to be out.

Some Planting Suggestions.
The beauty of shade tree depends
upon its normal and symmetrical growth.
In order to insure this, before planting
cut off the ends of all broken or mutt
lated roots; remove all side branches save
upon evergreens, so that a straight whip
like stalk alone remains. Dig holes at
least two feet in diameter and one foot
deep in good soil, and make them four
feet across in poor soil. The sides of
holes should be perpendicular and the
bottom fiat. Break up soil in the bot
tom of the hole to the depth of the
length of spade blade. Place two or
three inches Of fine top soil free from
sods or other decomposing organic mat
ter. in the bottom of the hole. On top
of this place the roots OF the tree, sprcai
them as evenly as possible over the bot
tom of the hole and cover with two or
three inches of fine top soil as before.
Tramp firmly with the feet and Gil the
hole with good earth, leaving the surface
loose and little higher than the surface
OF the surrounding soil. When the work
of planting is completed, the tree should
stand about two inches deeper than it
stood in the nursery.
In order to insure symmetry Of growth,
trees must be allowed unrestricted area
for development. At least 40 feet should
be allowed between trees intended to oc-
cupy the ground permanently. Quick
growing temporary trees may be plant
"a between the long-lived ones TO pro.
luce immediate results, but these should
be removed as soon as they interfere
with the development of the permanent
The lists of trees and shrubs contained
N this publication are merely sugges
i've, but in all cases they include such
lorts as are well adapted to the regions.

PENSES IN CANYON COUNTY

Canyon commits sioners are busy
deyising means of saving the coun-
ty money and succeeded in cutting
expenses in county physicians de-
partmer& to the tune olfI $500. The
bid of DIR. Farrer was accepted at
the stipend Of $500 per YER ard a
contract ordered drawn. The County
paid $1,000 fer this seryice last yen
and the commissioners are much
elated in securing the serl ices at
the lesser price.
DR.. Fadrer will perform all ne e.
sary opera tioEs and provide what
ever assistance he may need at tho
above figule, which, however, does
not include insanity cases medicine
or hospital fees.
Aside from being county physi-
clan, Ir FarIer will also be the
health offi6er and executive head
of the medical work OF the county.
The commissioners also opened
bids for the county printing. No
action was taken in this matter ow-

Of the bids and it Do probable that
new bids will be asked for this
work.
