Novel Edison Program Detroit EdiSon has launched an informational program aimed at showing customers how prop- er tree planting helps in main- taining good electric service. As a key feature of the pro- gram, the company has prepared a booklet, "Planting For Perma- nent Beauty," which suggests trees and shrubs that thrive in this climate; tells where, when and how they are best planted; and explains the reasons why. The booklet—available at Edison customer offices — stresses the damage improperly selected and planted trees can cause, and asks cooperation in planned planting that will benefit the homeowner and his community. It is pointed out that most of the interruptions of electric service caused by storms are the direct result of falling trees and limbs, and that damage brought about by normal tree growth also is,wbstantial.
