AMERICA was "the tad of for Mta," but luuuutaln, dnlr. bill nnd lnln ore now nbout tie nudod of btf trees, thereby destroying both wealth nnd glory. I was recent ly railed to I'bllllpsbuTg, Pn., to glv a lecture on "The Salvation of Out Trees, ' nnd In going from Tyrone ti I'hilllpsbiirg It nearly made the atari lck. The benutlful hills on (tint pari of the Allegheny mountains were en tlrely stripped of trees, nnd even th young growth, six Inches In diameter had been cut away to be used as "mln ing props." The coal mines ate nr-nr ly exhausted, nnd ninny people told mt they would not live on the lands Just for pnylng the taxes, for they wouM atarve to death. And yet on those hills forty years ago were growing thf most mngnlflcent specimens of pines hemlock nnd other conifers. It is with sadness that the people hnve seeu the pristine forests fade nwny. There is an instinctive love of the tree In man, and ns he looks upon the barren bleakness of treeless expanse he Bighs for something to relieve the dreary, monotonous bareness of the oil and commences to realize what it means to be without shade in the beat of summer and no trees to break the fury of the blasts in winter; hence he readily saw that there should be shade trees by the highway, clumps or groves around the borne, as well as the fruit trees in the orchard and garden.

WEAKENED AND LEFT A TOEY TO BTOliMS. poos to the woodlot and hunts for the young maple or elms and, bavins found them, proceeds to plant, one of the commonest mistakes he makes is to plant too close together, but the one mistake above all others is well, "Whack!" ofT goes the top. Very often the shade trees come from the nurseries with this same crave error committed on them. Isy cuttiug off the top in order to live at all the growth is forced out from the twbra, and as the stub grad ually decays a weak point Is made right in the center, so that as soou as the branches are of any considerable size the strain of the windstorms rends it open at that point where the great est strength is required. Kvery storm that comes along Is weakening It still more, and the larger the branches the greater the leverage of the wind. A storm had Just passed aud taken off one-third of the farthest tree lu Il lustration No. 7. It hud also split the other two limbs. In otb?r words, the tree was ruiued. In illustration No 8 Just one-half of the tree is wrenched off io a violent storm, and this tree .ilo is ruiued. The mistake generally lies in select ing too large a tree, and. Ix'itig too large, the height also is objectiouable. iiul the winds would be apt to blow it New Stock of Goods Coming Having bought out my partner, I will continue to close out the remainder of the stock to make room for a stock of Groceries which I have ordered.
