One of the important reasons
people buy houses is SO they can
also have grounds. While many
builders construct good houses
few of them provide the kind OF
grounds the homeowner will
want two or three years later.
This, of course. is no reflection
on the builder. His job is to con-
struct houses and to make them,
as quickly as possible. look less
naked with the help a few trees
and some sort of planting. Build
ers are rarely landscaping spe-
cialiStS. Neither is the average
young man or his wife when they
buy their first house.

later. If there are trees to be
saved. for instance, he can ride
herd on his builder to mark off
an area to be avoided by the
bulldozer and other heavy ma
chinery. The trunks should be
wrapped heavily with burlap to
protect them from being injured.
And then. that precious top

stakes in my choice OF a site

mistakes in my choice OF a site
for my house.
Today, having been through
the wringer several times, /
would consult with my land
scaping fellow as soon as I
found a plot I liked, l would
FAINT from him an opinion on the
want from him an opinion on the
foreground springs which turn
into bogs for a period in the
spring? What kind of drainage
is there off my property? If there
is too much or too little. what
can be done at the time the
house is being constructed-to
remedy defects by regarding or
building retaining walls?
My landscape architect can
tell me what kind of soil I have.
He can look over the trees and
shrubs on the property and sug-
gest which are worth saving,
and which should go. Sometimes,
alas, a. builder with the best
intentions in the world, will save
a young soft-wood tree which
will Immediately give a pleasing
impression Struggled against a
house-and later grow into a
big tree which is a problem be-
cause of its close proximity to
the house, and because it's roots
interfere with the proper func-
tioning of the underground
drainage system.
Situations vary widely. The
house which is connected with
sewers and storm sewers has
fewer drainage problems usually
than the country house which is
equipped with septic tanks and
septic fields and where the drain
age can be handled only with
fields of agricultural tile carry

try to get by with a cheap grade
of grass seed. Do a good job
once, and it won't be an annual,
expensive and unsatisfactory
project.
There are as many ways to
landscape grounds as there are
families who live in houses, and
certainly no two, particularly if
they are close together. want the
same arrangement of trees,
shrubs flowers and outside living
quarters alike.
At the moment-and / hope
forever after-the emphasis on
landscaping seems to be to COM
bine usefulness and beauty. No
longer is the principle object of
landscaping to impress the pass

vide something pleasant for the
homeowner to look upon.

In, other words Germany is

Few people would quarrel with

President Fishing After Veto.
Of Bill to Label FOREIGN Trout

Other purposes of the measure
were to protect American diners
out against deceptive" practices
regarding the origin of the trout
they eat. and to protect domestic
trout producers against unfair
competition from abroad.
Gen. Eisenhower said he could
not condone fraud or deception
in the marketing of food Or any
other product. He said. he
thought the proposed new law
was unnecessary to prevent this
because Federal laws already re-
quire labelling Of imported
products.
Furthermore, he said, the pro-
visions of the trout bill would be
discriminatory and oppressive
against foreign trade" and would
invade q field of regulation he
believes should be left to the
States. And, he added, the cost
of enforcement would be out Of
all proportion.
