SELECT TREES WITH CARE
Matter Worth Great Consideration by
the One Who Is Planning a
Real Home.

Now that the process of tree NOV
ing Is so successful, it is a simple
matter to annex and preserve as ones
own specimens of tho numerous beau
tiful trees which the countryside
dweller is apt to run across in his
woodland rambles.
Do not make the mistake, however.
OF thinking that any kind of a tree
can be planted in any place; selec-
tions need to be made with intelli-
gence and due regard to drainage and
soil.
The over.changing beauty of the
mountain maple makes 1t an unusu-
ally satisfactory tree for ornamental
planting. The branches in winter are
beautiful in coloring, as in spring are
the buds and blossoms, followed in
summer by the developing fruits.
The wild plum tree, too. has posi-
bilities which o many people fail to
recognize. The blossoms of this tree
are the nearest we get to the cherry
blossom display Of the Japanese, and
although their beauty endures for only
a brief season, the trees are especially
desirable when planted along rocker
les or along walls.
