In the elimination matches last Sunday the results were as follows: (Continued from page 3) ! _ Although most of us appreciate the ’grelt value of our trees we often forget that they_need care. As a reâ€" sult many of them are diseased and starving to death. We know that it takes years for a large shade tree to grow and there are trees around our homes which to us are priceless out still we allow them to suffer from neglect. Trees Need Plant Food and Other Care During Growing Period, Advice When we consider the large quanâ€" tity of leaves, seed and wood matured by the average tree every year we can better realize that it cannot thrive without a good supply.of plant food. The soil around most of our homes It‘s easy to feed trees; simply make holes around the trees three feet apart in a circle under the drip of the branches ‘and fill the lower half of the hole with plant food and the upper half with soil. The holes can be made with a crowbar or some other sharp instrument. Not only will this encourage. the growth of roots at a lower depth in the soil, making them less subject to injuries by drought, but the deeper roots will eliminate competition between the tree roots and the grass. Often the reason why grass does not grow un-! der trees is because the roots take all of the moisture and food from the soil, leaving none for the grass. is much poorer than the soil to which the tree is accustomedâ€"the virgin forestâ€"and ‘we remove the food nature supplies trees living in the forests when we rake the dead leaves from beneath the trees in the fall. Other growing conditions in cities and towns are also less favâ€" orable; they must live in a smoky air, laden with poisonous gases and must often draw their food and water from soil which is sometimes overâ€" laid with concrete. It isn‘t strange that many of our trees are poor specâ€" imens. Many of these unfavorable condiâ€" tions cannot be changed but it is a very simple matter to correct plant food difficulties by the application of a complete plantfood, and a properly fed tree can make an excellent showâ€" ing even under adverse conditions. Plantfood, is sold by hardware stores, seedsmen, florists, nurseryâ€" men, landscape gardeners and other dealers. & John D. :Byrne, 33. years old, of 54 Fulton avenue, and employed as a brakeman on the Chicago, Milwaukee and North Shore railroad, was killed at Racine, when he fell beneath the wheels of a merchandise train of which he was a member of the crew. Rigid control of outdoor arenas and places of amusement, including miniature golf courses, is to be proâ€" vided for in an ordinance to be preâ€" pared for adoption by the Waukegan city council, in the near future, memâ€" bers of the city administration report. This country used to be referred to as a land flowing with milk and honey. A pretty allegory if we keep the mind off clabber and the sticky qualities of honey, but no longer apâ€" plicable. What the land flows with now is "applesauce."â€"Toledo Blade. THE PRESS NEW YORK AND CHICAGO STOCK EXCHANGE NEW YORK CURB EXCHANGE WE INVITE YOU TO ATTEND JAs. H. OLIPHANT & Co.
