TREE DEPARTMENT 
Here in the South and Southwest, where the sun does get hot, shade trees are a necessity. If best re- 
sults are to be had in the planting of shade trees, consideration must be given to the selection of the tree as 
well as the planting and care of same thereafter. The trees we list below are native over a large area, and 
if planted carefully and given proper cultivation will succeed almost universally over the Southwest. While 
deep rich soil is best for all shade trees, some varieties should not be planted except on such soil.
