the power of those who -would hai e been our masters. We are also thankful for our homeland; this beautiful country of Texas in which we live; for

A CITY EDITOR ON TREE PLANT
ING.
Clarence Ousley editor of the Fort
."Worth Record has recently moved out
on the Fort Worth-Dallas interurban
and Is trying his best to lead the sim
ple life part of the day and edit a city
newspaper the rest of the day. When
a Bulletin man saw him some weeks
ago he was as brown as a berry and
declared that he had secured that
complexion digging post holes plant-
ing trees spading the garden milking
the cows and doing the other numer-
ous things pertaining to rural life. He
has found "the smell of the moist
earth more delicious than store-bought
perfume" but hear him on the Bul-
letin's hobby of tree planting. This
paper is glad to have so able a pen
added to the advocates of tree plant-
ing and If other newspapers in the
state will join the Record and the Bul-
letin In the fight for more shade trees
Texas will soon become famous for its
beautiful trees. Editorially Mr. Ous-I
ley says:
From now until spring every man
who owns a habitable spot of ground
should keep himself busy planting
trees. -
There Is Httle danger df planting too
many because It IS expensive If you
have it done and it is liartl work If you
do it yourself.
The best way is to do It yotirarif.
and the economy is the least of the
reasons for doing it.
In the first place it la a good t)h
tc dig in the ground. The exercise
is healthful and diverting. You can't
use a pick and spade id this kind of
weather without getting Jip a perspira-
tion and an appetite. You might
Imagine you could do so mechanical a
thing as digging a hole in the ground
and still think about your business
but you can't The first stroke will
make you forget your office more com-
pletely than If you were a thousand
miles away. And it will surprise you
to discover that there Is real absorb-
ing Interest In digging a hole In see-
ing it go deeper In watching the pile
of. dirt grow and In picturing all the
-while the tree In leaf and bloom and
fruit
And the smell of the moist earth Is
more delicious than store-bought per-
fume. You will find even greater delight in
the thought that you are making some-

thing grow that you are contributing
substantially to the beauty and won-
der and bounty of nature.
It will not be long as the years run
before you will personally enjoy the
shade and bloom and fruit The first
bud will enchant you and you will be
watching for it long before it is due.
You will have an affection for the tree
because it will be your "owny own"
your labor your care your nurture.
And your children and children's chil-
dren and the strangers of another gen-
eration will think of you and bless you
for your thoughtfulness.
Count back a few years three five
ten and recall where you were and
what you were doing. If you fthad
planted trees then they would be bear-
ing fruit and giving shade now. Look
forward the same time and contem
plate what you will have if you plant
now.
In this part of Texas we cannot do
too much In itree-plantlng. The little
timber alongj the streams and banks
is being rapidly exhausted and when
it is gone nothing will remain to break
the monotony of the plains except
what is planted about the home. But
the planting will overtake the deple-
tion. The quick growing trees will
reach larger size in ten years than
most of the native growth and the
slow growing varieties will overtake
their kindred of the forest The culti-
vated tree outgrows the native.
It would be a public duty to plant
trees even If it were not pleasurable
or prontable to do so. But It will
also pay. Observe the places with
shade and fruit trees and consider how
much more valuable they are than the
treeless places. And more and more
are purchasers of homes coming to
value trees i A shack and a wire fence
no longer fill the Texan's conception
of a dwelling place for his family. He
Is becoming more aesthetic which
means. In the finnl analysis more sen-
sible and lie will have- something

And lie will pay for these tilings.
So if can't live to einjoy tho

Whether city dweller or farmer it
will- pay yqu to plant trees. v
We do not undertake to suggest
rules for planting jior-the varieties to
be used. These are matters for the
experts. For the ordinary home own-
er the catalogues of the nurserymen
are very instructive. Get a number of

selections and then consult the nur-

vice. He knows better and he has a
