THE BIRCHES 
CUTLEAF WEEPING BIRCH (Beruta PeNnbuLa cracicis) 
A DDT spray APPLIED EARLY IN JUNE EFFECTIVELY CONTROLS THE 
Bronze Birco Borer AND THIS ENCOURAGEMENT HAS LED TO A GREAT 
RESURGENCE OF INTEREST IN THIS, AND OTHER BIRCH SPECIES, FOR 
STREET AND HOME USE, RecENTLY I SAW A STREET OF THIS CUTLEAF 
BIRCH IN CALIFORNIA THAT WAS THE EPITOME OF DAINTY LOVELINESS 
AND CHARM. A PICTURE OF THIS STREET WILL SOON BE USED AS A 
cOveER ON TREES Macazine, WHILE A SMALL BROCHURE WILL BE 
PUBLISHED TO POINT UP THE VALUE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL TREE FOR 
STREETS, 
It 1S DOUBTFUL IF ANY OF THE BIRCHES LISTED WILL EXCEED 35 FT, 
ON STREETS — THEY CAN EASILY BE LIFTED HIGH ENOUGH TO CLEAR 
TRAFFIC, WHILE THEIR SMALL TRUNK GIRTH CAN BE EFFICIENTLY 
ACCOMMODATED IN AS LITTLE AS A 3 FT, TREELAWN. THE ONLY 
REAL MAINTENANCE IS A ONE TIME SPRAY JOB, AND WITH A MIST 
SPRAYER THE COST IN NEGLIGIBLE — SURELY A MINOR PRICE FOR SUCH 
BEAUTY,
