Nature’s Nobility -- TREES 
Trees are always an attractive setting for the house. 
They are necessary, too, to add comfort to the hot summer 
days. The owner of farm or city property that is well planted 
with shade trees, windbreaks and shrubbery finds himself pos- 
sessed not only of a beautiful home, but one that has increased 
its value many times the original cost of the trees and plants. 
PLANTING TIME FOR TREES: The ideal time is 
from about October 15th until the ground freezes and from 
April lst until May 15th. Larger sizes which are moved B&B 
(4 inch and over) are best moved from December Ist until 
March Ist. ,
