of removing one large deed tree and replacing it with a small tree 
is $10 to $20. In one large mid-western city the budget for shade- 
tree care was $340,000 in 1952. Almost 1,000 trees killed by Dutch 
elm disease had to be removed by the city. Losses from shade-tree 
disesses are continuous, but in a given locality may increase 
greatly for a few years when an epidemic such ag Dutch elm disease 
strikes.
