Many of the prairie farms in Den-
ton, and other counties, have few.
if any, trees around them and some
of the owners state that it is impos-
sible to grow trees on the prairie
land, but there are some who have
successfully grown shade trees. John
Walde who lives on one of th? high-
est points in the county has demon-
strated the fact that hackberries
can be successfully grown on the
prairie When asked as to how hard'
it was to grow them he said "It's no
particular trouble except at firsu
when they require lots of attention
At first we arranged to water them
well and regularly until they es-
tablished themselves and formed
good, strong root stems. After that
we have had no trouble” It will
soon be tree-planting time and it's
not any too early for people in Den-
ton and over the county to start
planting for thees on their places.

The opening assault of the oppo-
sition to the Republican measure
was embodied in a lengthy address
prepared for delivery by Senator
Simmons.
Vote of deferment on the Vare
! case was not regarded as a test of
I strength on that issue or on the tar-

leaders solely u a means of expe-
