HARDY SHADE TREES.

City planners who include the
detail OF planting shade trees IN
their programs may gain a point
from recent experience OF the
national capital with the silver
manIe. Clifford Lanham, who has
charge of the parks and trees Ill
the District, for long hime has
refused the request OF residents
,hat he replant maple trees where
others had been removed, and
now his policy has been justified,
Mr.. Lanham had explained to
these citizens that the silver, or
soft, maple, while a rapid grower
and affording abundant shade, is
unsuitable for use on a large
scale in cities for several reasons.
1t sends it's roots too close to the
surface, frequently pushing the
sidewalks out of shape, its limbs
grow to great size yet are very
brittle. and it thus becomes an
easy prey to severe windstorms.
4 few days ago Washington
was visited by semi-tOrnadO
which, although of brief duration,
stayed in town long enough to
cause severe damage to more than
seven hundred Of the thousands
of shade trees which are placed
everywhere except in the busiest
downtown streets; and of the one
hundred or more which were
blown down completely, more than
half We're silver naples. 1t is now
the settled policy that no more
silver naples shall be planted in
The streets of Washington, and
these fallen soldiers will be re-
placed either with Norway naples
Of with elms or red oaks. The de-
cision is important to somebody,
in view of the enormous and
steady market for shade trees
Washington always has provided.
How great this market is may be
inferred from the statement of
the late superintendent Smith of
the National Botanic Garden, who
once stated that when he first as
sumed charge Of that institution,
about seventy-five years ago, he
personally set out $4,000 shade
trees.

BATHING BEACH SAFE.


To the Editor:
Dear Sir: Just as a point OF in
formation to those who have been
misinformed, | wish to say that
the Absecon swimming beach is
safe. We residents of Absecon
who help support the beach are
unfortunate in having laid at our
doors three deaths which have
occurred to bathers this summer.
One dtath. | am informed from
a reliable source. resulted when a
boy fell from the diving board
there. That was no drowning.
\ second took place not at the
bathing beach. but at the creek,
which is not protected, and was
a drowning. The Hughes tragedy
was a drowning, but l feel that it
could have been averted through
any extra precautions at the
beach.
We welcome all the Mainland
to Absecon beach, which was built
for Absecon folks by Absecon
money, but we do not care to be
blamed for that which is really
no fault of ours.
