ssrhe fundamental step in rnudi
improvement is to get the riL’.hf!
slope of the many banks that linm:
{he highways of Georgia,” do(‘]ar-f
ed Hubert B Owens, ]nndscupei
architect of state highway (10-i
partment, Wednesday morning at|
a meeting of the Ladies l;zlnl(-nz
Club held at the Georgian hotel. |
Prof. Owens, showed that it Ass
imuossillle to grow shrubbery cn|
the steep banks that line thvl
roads of Georgia. His solution to;
the problem is to slope the hunksl
g'raduully back from the road. !v)i
this way the plants will have .nl
better chance of permanent growih |
and beautification. Where the|
banks are too high to slope, as inl
the mountains, vines will be pl-n-l
ted at the top. He says that White |
Bluff road in Savannah is an ideal |
example of road improvement.
“The first steps to be consider
ed in roadside improvement in
Georgia are: (1) to remove feat«’
ures, such as billboards, (2) Pres
ervation of natural -‘beauty, (3)[
suitable planting to enhance the|
highway’'s attractiveness.” ¥ ‘
The aim of the state highway |
department, says Pref Owens, is|
10 heautify the rural roads and|
let the city park systems take ozm'!
of the approach to the eity. ‘
The Garden Club adopted three
imporfant civie projects for the
coming year, that of making Ath-‘
ens the Iris City: to improve the
approach to the cemetery; and I.u'
restore the famous old Botannical
gardens of Athens. !
