The bulletin is finely illustrated and gives explicit 
directions for planting trees, shrubbery, and flowers on 
school grounds. The suggestions given there can also

If you follow out Professor Bailey’s ideas, you will soon 
have trees, shrubs, flowers, and birds near your homes 
and schools, and they will become the beauty spots of 
the country.!
