Landscaping Architecture Is the Art of Planting Beautifully 
Beautiful surroundings as a setting for your home are just as essential as the 
interior decorative effects employed to bring out the beauty of its furnishings and 
appointments. They serve to complete the picture your home presents and should be 
well planned and correctly planted. 
To accomplish this with best results, it is advisable to secure the advice and 
services of a competent Landscape Architect. Let him prepare a diagram showing the 
location and variety of every shade tree, shrub and flower, and lay out and design 
walks and other Landscape features that will reflect good taste and harmonize with 
the architecture of your structure. Such a plan should be made before any planting 
is done er, preferably, even before construction is started. 
Howard W. Locke is in charge of our Landscape Department. He is well trained 
for his position as he holds a degree in Landscape Art from Texas A. & M. College 
and has had practical training with such organizations as the National Park Service, 
National Forest Service, and the Texas State Highway Department. Also in engineer- 
ing pape with Consolidated Steel Corp., Orange, during war, helping with

Under the direction of this man, our Landscape Department has completed many 
representative landscaping projects for parks, public grounds, large and small homes
