Tree Planting Plan Launched The old Hippodrome site in New York City, at Sixth Avenue and 43rd Street, is to be used as a parking lot under a permit received by the Board of Standards of that city. Of interest in this connection is the proviso that the owners of the lot are to plant trees along the street and avenue frontages so as to beautify the site and so as to minimize the objectionable and unsightly factors of a parking lot for owners of adjoining property This seems like a good idea which other cities might pick up.

Three excellent cherry varieties are Black Tartarian, Bing and Royal Anne, ripening in that order. If you have space for only one cherry tree, I recommend Black Tartarian because it is self -fruitful, that is.

it does not require another variety planted nearby for pollin-ization. It is also a pollenizer for other' cherries and a good "must on all cherry lists. Peaches have the longest season of all fruits. They are next in order of ripening. If you are fond of yellow-fleshed freestones you can have a peach-season "opener" by planting the Fisher, a new early freestone from Canada of outstanding quality.

The excellent early white-fleshed Nectar peach carries into early Summer, when the yellow freestones are ready. TYPES NAMED This group is well represented by Foster, and the improved Early Crawford. Elberta still leads all Midsummer peaches in popularity, although some people prefer Fay Elberta, ripening a few days earlier. The new Rio Oso Gem, beautifully sized and colored, is a fine choice for late Summer. Time-honored Salway gives us the last taste of peach goodness with the arrival of October.
