HOW ABOUT TOBACCO?

Agitation in far0r OF national pro-
hibiticn continues to grow. The re-
formers have a new and powerful ar
gument in the scarcity of cereal foods
and the fact that something like 100,-
100000 bushels Of grain is used every
year in the production Of alcoholic
beverages. Dr. Irving Fisher, OF Yale,
University, one Of our foremost era-

PLANT TREEc.

Quick returns in trees rs well ~
in everything else in life. seems to he
the cry of this age. Real estate men
set our poplar trees on new aloi-
ments because the prospective buyer
likes to see fairly well developed
trees en- his ground He never stors
to consider just how permanent and
valuable the trees are.
Poplar trees undoubtedly have 4
place in the scheme Of things. But
that place is hardly along the streets
of town. They do great damage to
pavcments. sidewalks ard sewers.
TAcir roots spread too far and choke
out other growth as vel as pry w
The pipes and stones that are part
of the foundation Of city.
The result is that individual prop
erty-holders begin pulling out their
poplars before they have enjoyed
much Of the shade they are supposed
to yield. Then they have to put in
ether trees. And there's q longer
wait before there is really a pretty
set of trees on that street.
Our forefathers had more public
spirit and more unselfishness They
planted walnuts and oaks, trees that
they might not be able TO enjoy in
their own lives, but that have come
down to us as priceless treasures.
In our careless and commercial
way we are cutting down these fine
old trees and substituting nothing.
Can't we return to the custom Of
planting tree for every child in the
family A little fcrethought en- our
part would give the people, gener-
alton or SO from now, as fine a growth
of elms, oaks. larches, chestnuts, wal
nuts and hard naples as we had
generation ago. lisa form of patriot
ism that every one ought to indulge
