Landscape Beauty Affects Your 

 Happiness and Your Purse 



If you iive in a home without shelter-belts, evergreens, shade trees, shrubs, 

 roses, or live fences, you are missing a world of good things — their absence costs 

 happiness and money, because without them you will be less and do less than 

 you would have done under better conditions. The heat of the sun is tempered 

 by the cool shade of the maples; the blizzard or windstorm reminds one of 

 the protection given by the belt of pines and spruces; the heavy rains bring 

 forth growth and bloom on shrubs and roses. 



Landscape beauty insensibly produces an effect upon even the most practi- 

 cal person. Daily living with such "common" things as pine and spruce and 

 maple trees affects one's temperament and increases one's energies. It is the 



quiet influence of these 

 things which grow that 

 counts, and the magic 

 works when we surround 

 ourselves with the plants 

 we fancy or that suit 

 our place.
