GREAT ADVANTAGE OF TREES
Argument That Roads Do Not Dry Out
Readily After Rains Does Hold
Good Nowadays.

The forestry department of Mime
sofa is said to have aroused an active
enthusiasm in the state for securing
shaded highways and the department
will this year plant 10000 trees aloha
the roadways and plans to add an
equal number each successive year.
In Pennsylvania a similar movement
Is under way.
, One objection heretofore to shade
trees by the roadsides has been that
the roads did not dry out readily after
rains, but that mudholes fingered.
Since road building according to more
modern methods has been so generally
adopted, this argument Is no longer
good, says the Indianapolis Star.
Thousands of miles Of cement and
asphalt pavement have been laid In
states between Florida and Nebraska,
and at first objection was made to
tree planting along such roads on the
ground that the tree roots would up-
lift or crack the surface. AS this
rarely happens in city streets, no GOOD
reason Is evident why it should be
different along country roads, and, In
fact, those who have experimental say
IL the trees are set far enough back
no Ill result follows. Much would de-
pend, OF course on the character of
the tree, whether or not 1t had a tap
root or spreading surface roots. An
Intelligent person would hardly recon-
mend the planting of beech tree near
pavement.
1t has been realized that cement and
asphalt roads radiate a heat on sum
mer days that dirt and gravel roads do
not, and that wayside trees, always well
come to summer travellers not only for
their cooling shade, but for their soft
ening Of highway glare, are especial.
ly desirable with the new pavements
Trees grow slowly and the progress
of planting will keep pace only with
the public sentiment In Its favor, so
that at best 1t will be many years
before our Lincoln and Dixie high
ways and our state roads will be the
shaded thoroughfares that they may
become. The time will doubtless ar
rive, however, when American cOun-
try roads will rival in beauty any city's
suburban streets lined with trees.
Roads, as they are now, at least in
Ae widdle West, with it's improved
farms. the clearing Of much forest
