PLAN IS ADOPTED
FOR REAUTIFYINC
CITY WITH TREES
Committee Hopes to Have
Several thousand Planted
This Spring. Chamber of
Commerce Backing Project,

a comprehensive plan for plant
ing thousands of shade trees in Albu-
querque this spring was adopted at
a meeting of the tree planting com
mittee held at the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday afternoon. The
members of the committee are Chas.
F. Wade, H. II. Chapman, NJ p.
Stamm, +. S. Slower, Charles Parker,
Henry Rogers, II. c., Roehl, A K.
Hebenstreit, Dr. w. II. Long, Mrs.
A, b. McMillen, J II. Coons, Mrs.
A Stroup, Quincy Handles and
Aldo Leopold
The plan contemplates the plant
ing trees by private contractors at
the expense of property owners, the
contractors to work under a system
OF inspection to guarantee good trees,
careful planting and thorough prep
aration of the ground Inspection
will be done by technical forester
working under the direction of the
tree planting committee. The IT, s.
forest service has offered the serv-
ices of the inspector, and the Cham
Der of Commerce, it is said, will ar
range to pay necessary incidental eX-
penscs,
The committee will make public
tomorrow Il set of specifications, set
ting forth the kinds of trees recon-
mended the kind of stock accept
able, the precautions prescribed for
shipment, storage and care of such
stock, the method and dates of plant
ing, and all other matters necessary
to guarantee, insofar as humanity
possible that the trees will grow.
Contractors will then be asked to bid,
stating the prices at which they will
meet the specifications. The COM
mittee will then issue certificates to
accepted bidders, which they may
use in soliciting business from prop
erty owners.
Prices are to be on trees delivered
and planted under the supervision Of
the inspector. 1t is understood that
property owners will also be offered
weekly watering service at cost, for
one year, by the city. The city eX
poets to use some of its sprinkling
tanks during the night hours when
the equipment is idle, for this serv
ice The commissioners will make
known within a few days the cost
per tree at which this service will
be available 1t is not necessary to
contract for watering service. But
this arrangement will be made, if
possible for the benefit of non-resi-
dent property owners who are de-
Slr0uS OF planting trees anu ndNlnS
them properly attended to.
In general the proposed plan will
offer the property owner method
Of planting trees on his property at
a fixed cost per tree. with all pos
sible guarantees that the work will
be well done The property owner
may also, if he desires, engage the
city watering service to take care
of the trees after they are planted
at a fixed cost per tree for the sea-
son. tt-..t.
The committee desires to get in
touch Immediately with persons de
string to bid as contractors They
believe that the free advertising and
the certificate of recommendation
which the successful bidders will get
from the committee win make it d
profitable undertaking.

The Attack on Daylight Saving.

Some fear seems TO be felt by friends
of daylight saving that opponents of SEN
sible and helpful innovation will be able
Opposition seems to come almost entirely
from the rural communities; the declara-
ton of Representative King of Illinois
to the House committee on interstate
and foreign commerce, that the contest
was between the common people and
great financial interests" is merely alb.
surd. He unnecessarily defends the cleo
trie light interests from the charge of
working for the repeal of the daylight
saving, but he accuses the New York
stock exchange of leading the battle"
against repeal in order to have its open.
ing and closing synchronize with the
stock exchanges in England, where day
light saving prevails. How New York
time can be made to "syncronize" with
London time which is five hours faster,
he does not explain.
That some minor inconvenience are
found by many farmers in putting the
clock ahead in summer is admitted, but
they seem small in comparison with the
benefit gained by the country as whole,
and some of them seem to be remedi-
able. The mysteries of de win its rela-
tion to daylight saving can perhaps be
understood only by farmers, but the
milk problem appears to be simpler, since
it is conceded that it could be solved by
shifting the schedule of the milk trains
Thus it becomes problem of railroad
ing rather than of farming, and no evil
dence has been shown that such read
iustment would be Improbable. On
the whole it seems likely that the root
of the opposition lies in the admirable
conservatism of rural communities,
which has in all times been buiwark
to society, but which sometimes makes
it difficult to get fair trial even for
harmless and helpful innovation like
daylight saving. 1t may be admitted
that rural communities have little or
nothing to gain by daylight saving,
which is essentially clever means for
making simple and easy a desirable
change in the habits of city people. But
on the other hand the disadvantages
which people in the country may feel are
so slight in comparison with the gain
to the nation as whole that they might
well be overlooked in the common inter.

JENNIE LIND'S PIANO.
Sold Recently in Middletown, Conn
Was Built in 1850 for $1,000.

The piano once used by Jenny Lind in
her grand concert tour of this country,
and which has been resting at the Sec
ond hand store of Thomas r. Smith in
Middletown for more than 20 years, has
been sold to New Haven junk man and
removed to that city There is an inter
esting story back of the piano.
Phineas T. Barnum, the great Amer
lean Snowman, in 1850, engaged Jenny
Lind, the Swedish contralto, for a CON
cert tour of the United States, for which
he paid her $202, 900 and contracted with
Fox g. Co. of New York to construct a
mammoth square piano for the concerts
at a cost of $4,000 While this piano
was in public use, no duplicate was TO be
made Its >ase and legs were Of San
Domingo mahogany, enameled in ivory
and embellished in gold. Otto Gold
schmidt was her aocompanist on the
Crystal palace piano, and married Jenny
Lind while they were on the concert tour
in this country.
Her farewell appearance in the Crystal
palace was an ovation. The tickets we're
sold at auction and one was auctioned
off at $3.50.
The Crystal palace was destroyed by
fire in 1857 and the late Allyn NJ. Cole
grove of Middletown, owner of the Nc
Donough house block, bought the piano
for private use for $1,000 and had it
removed to his home, called Colegrove
castle, on the Middlefield road, where it
remained mute for more than 40 years.
Many old citizens may recall seeing the
instrument there in the back parlor, its
top forming a storage for discarded and
out of season hoes, scythes and farming
tools for which there was not room on
the veranda or in the yard. After the
death of Mr.. Colegove, Mr.. Smith
bought the piano and has had it at his
store ever since. -Hartford Courant.
