of planting with shade trees, would not only

of conferring a great benefit to the public.
Manv neglect to plant trees upon the plea of
not getting them to live. No one should urge

quickening their growth by cutting off the
whole of the top. Such persons should con
sider that the tree is sufficiently injured by
disturbing me roots, without imposing the
double labor ol restoring the branches, a job
however which it rarely succeeds in effecting.
A little pruning may be useful, but experience
