SHADE and ORNAMENTAL TREES 
Trees, especially, have a character that is instantly imparted to the home over which they stand guard. They are a real part 
of a home—the cheapest part, and so almost universally neglected. 
Trees are beautiful as,well as useful, too. Winter or summer their infinite variety commands our reverence, and their smile is 
one of peace. 
Is your house actually standing out on the bare land, or does it just look that way because there is no “setting” 
of greenery 
to the picture? Plant trees now. Don’t deny yourself their company and influences.
