It is estimated that at least two- thirds of the trees and shrubs were native Connecticut growths which in keeping with the bureau's policy of conservation had been previously col­ lected and transplanted to the high­ way department's five nursery stork yards, and there cultivated for future Dr. Hilario Camlno Moncado, presi­ use in beautifying the roadsides.

HEADS EPEE SQUAD Most of these trees and shrubs were gathered for the stock yards in advance of highway improvement there's work. Good growths found in the areas through which construction and reconstruction operations were plan­ ned were carefully rescued and trans­ planted. Others were taken from pri­ vate properties upon which the own­ ers had given permission to the bur eau to take growths. This policy of conservation has brought about a sit­ question uation at the present time in which very little good growth is destroyed by the building of new highways. Nearly all of it is now saved for fu ture use in adorning the roadsides. During the year, several thousand trees and shrubs were collected in this manner and placed in the depart­ ment's nurseries for development. Two years hence, these growths will be found again along the highways that's easy to settle!" in the locations for which they are most appropriately fitted. The grading and seeding of road­ sides in the wake of new highway construction and reconstruction was a major activity of the roadside bur­ gppp^- i; - eau during the year. In the adorn ment of unsightly slopes and the crea­ tion of rock gardens and other im­ provements, some 30,000 vines of va­ rious types have been planted as ground covers to hide sandy and rocky embankments along the roads; and about 8,000 perennial plants of va­ rious kinds have been set out. Likewise the program of develop- , ing waste areas into highway gar­ dens and of establishing picnic places has been carried out to a greater ex­ tent than ever before. The Bureau's roadside picnic places equipped with tables and waste receivers, usually located with a water view, are now common sights along Connecticut W. H. Russell of the 1920-24 United highways.
