. TREES AND SHRUBS FOR PLANTING IN TOWNS. 143 
growing plants in smoky towns is great indeed, and should only be 
engaged in when special care and attention can be bestowed on 
their culture and general management. 
The foregoing list of trees, shrubs, and other plants includes 
only such kinds as can be confidently recommended as suitable 
subjects for planting in town parks and gardens, <A great 
many others might have been added to the list, but we consider 
it better only to include well-tried kinds.

alphabetical manner, so that any one can see at a glance the 
kinds which are best suited for withstanding the deleterious 
effects of an impure atmosphere.
