Water and oxygen are essen-
tial to the health and well being
of a tree and too, says the
county agent, many soil mi-
cor-organisms also require
these vital materials for nor-
mal growth and development.
The lack of oxygen in the soil
results in a buildup of noxious
gases and chemicals detrimen-
tal to healthy growth.
The county agent adds that he

tional information on how to

A large healthy tree is aval-
uable and often irreplaceable
asset to any property. But, says
County Agent L. M. McCarll,
many such trees are killed or
damaged beyond repair because
construction crews, supervis-
ors or property owners are
careless in excavation and con-
struction activities. The dam-
age often results from lack of
knowledge about proper precau-
tions needed to protect the tree
when the soil around It must be
disturbed. The addition or re-
moval of soil can upset the del-
icate balance between the soil
and tree roots and can seriously
damage or kill the tree, ex-
plains the county agent.
In most cases, the majority
of the feeder roots of a large
established tree are found with-
in the top 18 inches of the soil
below the existing grade, says
the agent. Normally, roots
spread out in all directions to a
distance equal to the spread of
the tree's branches.
Another source of trouble,
permitting insects or fungus
diseases to enter the tree, in
