Fifty dollars or more spent in planting trees and shrubbery about the house on the average suburban property 

 division is not "an extra or unnecessary expense;" it's a finishing touch that makes the house and lot a home; it's 

 a wholesome source of pleasure to the residents of the property and to the community; it's an investment that 

 makes your property in demand and at a much higher price than the unplanted one. A nicely arranged, generous 

 planting of thrifty, luxuriant trees and shrubbery about every suburban home is the up-to-date, progressive thing 

 to hav^.
