NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Advice upon what to do for shade
trees and shrubs during November
sent by the American Forestry associ-
alton to its members is as follows:
First.-Prune trees and remove the
dead branches.
Second.-Do whatever fall spraying
may be necessary to overcome suck
ing or scale insects.

rejuyenating impoverished specimen

Fifth-In especially exposed places
protect the rhododendrons and other
tender plants and shrubs with ever
green boughs. Do this only where the
cold and exposure make 1t absolutely
necessary.
