The Miami News says that there are 10,000 conehs; formerly Key Westers, in Miami, some of whom have organized for politica} purposes, and will try to influence PLANT A TREE! John W. Newbern, of Newberry, Fla., | who last year had a page advertisement in | The Key West Citizen advoeating state-; wide beautification, has spent most of his adult life and much of his money in per- trees, Since, 1922 he. has distributed 1,000,- 000 copies of a pamphlet on tree planting and a similar number on the preservation of game in Florida, for he is intensely in- terested also in protecting our. wild life, and though he is now unable to continue the distribution of his pamphlets because of his straitened financial circumstances, he is still aetive in that work, which, eventually, will mean-much not only in the beautification of Florida as a result of the planting of trees but also in the enrichment of the state. 5 “Plant a tree!” That is the ery he is trying to make reach every part of Florida, and if Floridians generally respond to it and continue to adhere to it, the next gen- eration will see millions of beautiful and | valuable trees that are not now in Florida. Plant a tree yourself, have your wife plant one, your child or children plant one or. more, do that throughout the state, Mr. Newbern,points out, and the “harvest” that willbe singeals in beauty in the years to Plant, a tree, plant it.in your yard, plant it along the highways, plant it any- where in the state where it will be ae- corded protection, and you may be sure when you plant it that you will be helping yourself in some measure and ote don in @ great measure, Aside from his commendable ae in preserving wild life in Florida, Mr. New- bern has done incalculable good in pro- moting tree-planting in the state. But he is not satisfied over the success that he has thus far attained. Like all other sincere upbuilders in every walk of life in their anxiety to succeed still more, he is solicitous | to see his tree-planting efforts result in state-wide. beautification, not fitfully here and there, but insistently continuous every- where. To try to spur on the people of Florida in his tree-planting c aign, he speaks of work along that line that is done; day in and day out, in California, and points out that everything that is grown in that state can be grewn in this state and some things ean be grown.in Florida that do not thrive in California. “Plant a tree!’ Don’t wait. till . to- morrow to plant it, for things that are put off till tomorrow are generally put off al- together. “PLANT A TREE!” DAY!” . “PLANT IT TO- WHO IS INTELLIGENT?
