prevent mistakes and are wise In their

and In time. II the town prOspers and
grows, much early effort needs to be
undone
Tho common mistakes, according TO
W. ]. Morrill, Of the Agricultural
College at Fort Collins. are too close

species, often several. on one street
and different alignments Of trees.
Care is required in choosing species
suited to climatic and soil conditions.
Too often rapid growing. inferior
species are selected; they may be used
