PLANT RIGHT KIND OF TREES Expert on Subject Offere Advice to Outdoor Art Committees of Town Booster Clubs. Booster clubs for town planning and civic Improvements are the natural defense and outgrowth of our war-tiin- e patriotic leagues. Our suhurluin towns should not overlook this opportunity to utilise these war-tim- e organisations in furthering the welfare of their communities. Many Interesting activities can be curried on. for the Improvement and beautification of your town and community. I would suggest the following as being important. Interesting and practical. Have your boosters' club appoint an outdoor art committee. The memhers of this committee should he rltlxens who can give considerable time,, are and appublic spirited, preciate what town improvements mean. Tills committee should recommend the adoption of an ordinance for the protection end regulation of tree planting on all the piddle streets. It should condemn the planting of varieties of trees soft wood short-live- d like the willow, boxelder, cottonwool, poplar and soft maples. All of these are a nuisance and In many cases destructive. The roots of the willows, poplars and cottonwoods fill the sewers and Injure pavements, while the box elders and soft maples are always seriously affected by insect and fungus diseases. variOnly the hardwood long-live-d eties should be recommended by this committee, such trees as the American elm, red and pin oaks, sycamore, Norway maples, lindens, glnko. Ironwood, locusts, etc. These trees will grow to be several hundred years old, are not seriously affected by Insect and fungus diseases and seldom look shabby or unsightly. J.

The power granted cities by the United States Supreme court to eliminate billboards altogether in the residential districts Is hailed with approbation by the American Civic assocla tton in a bulletin which It devotes to the billboard evil. The decision which protects the millions of dollars Invested In homes and civic Improvements was rendered in the case of the Cusack company against Chicago. The Civic association, in the strongest language, urges communities to protect themselves from the Intrusions of billboards In the residence districts. It calls the billboards eyesores," which depredate property values. Los Angeles already lias taken advantage of the power given It by the Supreme court to bar billboards from all parts of the city except business districts. Whether a block is In a business district is determined by the written consent of the owners of G6 per cent of the property lu the block and the two adjoining blocks. So It will take the permission of the of the frontage owners of two-thirIn three blocks to erect billboards along one block. The billboards may be banished at any time upon the request of the owners of 85 per cent of the frontage. Kansas City Star.
