The elm tree at the Ludmow Post ; Office corner, . for ' years : a
landmark in The'. Town, has been receiving "special treatment"
in recent years: of which many .Lucknow and district residents- are.
:not -aware.
In an effort to save',the elm from the'Dutch'elm disease, which ::
bore destroyed so'many trees in the'area, the village has for a number
of years treated the Stately elm in an effort to 'lengthen its life. The '
work haifbeen done by'a.tree'•specialist
For years, the old elm 'has been a cath i lace for b "and
g sting P P� ..
:.concerts, Santa Claus . visits and as well' has ser ecLas_a posting_ba�ar l .-
for. signs, posters. and 'advents. Over : the' years, many.. * .nail,

' So the time has finally come, alit ,often does with old' age, ' when
. corrective' Medicine is. keeping' the' tree alive. How 'much: longer.the
-'.old elm' can be`doctored is not known, but.the village ,has been' niaking
