Show EE JUST SOME TREES EE EE "Poems are made by fools like me; jE EE But only God can make a tree." j EE Every one is cognizant of the beauty of stately trees. EE EE Perhaps the most beautiful thing that God ever made and EE ES forgot to give a soul was a flower; next to a flower, we EE EE should say, 'trees.' EE EE The beauty of trees is more noticeable in spring. The EE EE fewness of trees in Milford is the more to be noticed and re- Ej EE gretted in spring than at any other season. Ej EE Why not have more trees here? Almost all are familia" EE EE with how the site of Salt Lake City appeared to the p-Hy pioneers. There was one tree a straggly cedar. Now, EE Salt Lake City is filled with rows of large trees, just ro'v EE coming into full foliage. On a trip to Salt Lake it is a r- E" is i;ef to ride along side the sir?1' clumps of trees that dot 'he ... EE 'andr-cape near Oasis and Delta. Coming from other SE SEE towns, the aspect that greets t'-e eye is one of pleasure. EE In MinV-vl, the advent of spring is more unnoticed be- EE cpusp of the lack of spring foliage. If the saline soil around jj SSE Salt Lake will grow tall, stately trees, then the fertile soil jE SSE of this valley should do the same. Minersville and Beaver E ESS are heavily wooded. Why not ship in some hardy varie- S EE ties of trees to Milford? Then in a few years, note the S EE changed appearance of the town as viewed by a stranger EE EE passing through. We who live here become accustomed to EE the lack of trees and shrubbery, but none of us can deny EE EES their worth for making a town beautiful. Watering and a SE EE: little care should be all that would be required to make EE EE them grow here. -, EJ |
