MODERN SCIENCE TO
SAVE SPLENDID TREES
Up-to-Date Process Devised
By Lover of Natures
Works

It was announced some time ago
that the police jury had entered into
contract with a New Orleans firm
for the scientific treatment of the
magnificent oak trees growing on the
court house square in order to preserve
them from further decay. The firm
engaged are now at work trimming
the decayed and surplus branches and
putting the trees in shape for the re-
ceiving of the scientific part of the
treatment which will rejuvenate the
half century giants that have been
such a pleasing sight to visitors and
read comfort TO home people all
these years.
The Man Who Devised 1t
Quite a number of years some man
in northern state who was great
lover of nature and natures works
looked on the gradual decay and disin-
tegration Of monster trees, symbolizing
the growth OF century or more. He
bemoaned their fate and dreamed of
devising some method whereby their
existence might be prolonged. The
more he thought of the matter the
greater he was possessed with the de-
sire to save the trees and thus prove
a real benefactor of mankind. If, he
thought, a humans decaying tooth
could be cleaned and filled and thus
saved, why should not process pat
termed after the dental science prove
equally as effective in the preserva-
ton of trees. The idea seemed feas-
ible and he Immediately took steps
to put it into actual practice.
Crude Methods at First
His methods at first were no doubt
crude but showed that they were ef-
fective and capable of future develop
ment along scientific lines. No
thought Of monetary>profit entered the

originator's mind, but the love OF the
work urged him on to greater things
In his chosen callings. Cleaning de-
cayed trunks of rotten wood he fol-
lowed this simple process with the
plugging of the cavity with cement.
The cement thus applied stopped all
decay and the bark Of the tree began
to cover the exposed cement and hide
it from view. The cement filler serv-
ed double purpose, it was afterwards
proved, in that it not only stopped
the natural decay but served as a.
strengthener and aided the tree to re-
sist the onslaught of wind storms.
Science Developed Rapidly
The science of tree surgery has de-
veloped rapidly and all doubts as to
it's efficiency have disappeared. The
treatment and saving of valuable trees
is now we'll konwn and the crude
methods Of the originator of the
scheme have been developed and i'm
proved to- such an extent that all
chances of failure are slim indeed.
Gradually the idea of saving trees for
ornamental and shade purposes is
spreading and today the science itself
not looked upon as hoax or a
scheme to secure money without an
actual "quid pro quo"
Enter Into Wise Contract
The trees of the Opelousas court
house square, due to age and other
causes, have been showing many signs
Of decay and ultimate destruction in
order to make the square safe from
falling limbs or the trees themselves.
The matter >of treating these trees by
a scientific process has been talked
over before but nothing done. Time
has passed and the trees themselves
have been showing further signs of de-
cay, and lift it was the intention to
save them some drastic steps had to
be taken at once in order to accom-
plish that desired end. Hence, the po-
lice jury very wisely entered into a
contract with the treet surgeons to
save the fine trees on the square, and
the tree surgeons say there is no
chance Of failure and are willing that
the success of their work speak for
itself.

MUCH WASTED
IN DUMP PILE
Average American City Sends to the
Dump Thirteen Tons of disable
Material For Every 1000
r... "n Inhabitants. ....

The average American city SENDS
to the dump thirteen tons OF disable
material for every thousand 1nhaoi'
tants.
:. Waste material sent to city dump
piles is worth 81 a ton. Thus, for
every thousand of city population
there is an average of SIG each year
in Junk alone. says Thrift. w.
OF this waste, 50 per cent is old
paper. Eight trees of mature growth
are required to make ton OF pulp.
A ton of waste paper will save these
trees. Two million tons OF lockwood
were manufactured in the United
States from old paper last year. Six
teen million trees would have been
sacrificed to make this material pro-
vided old paper had not been con-
sumed. -,
Each ton of disable waste carried
to the dump contains 0.3O7 per cent
of rags. Eight per cent Of the value
of a ton is made up of this material.
Dump rags can be used in making
roofing felt. To destroy them Is to
increase building costs. Clean rags
are more valuable, as they can be
utilized in making paper, wiping
rags and other items.
Two per cent of city waste is com
nosed of tin cans. Based upon the
approximation Of the present popula-
ton of our urban centers, about ID
900 tons OF tin cans are discarded as
