.mountain laurel, hemlock, yellow
birch, azaleas, mountain ash, holly
and black drum.
The Appalachian flowers will not
be planted until the soil is built to
a condition corresponding to the acid
soil of the mountain area, Miss
Schrock stated. As soon as the prop

'three acres and is divided into the
flbllowing divisions: Appalachian,
northern mountains, southern moun
tains, miscellaneous mid-western and
horticulture nursery stock. Quite a
few trees and shrubs have been do
nated to the arboretum.
The plan was conceived by Dr. L.

president included Miss Schrock,
chairman J. O. Loganbill and Prof.
