1470 ARTICLE 3 9A.
An. Code, sec. 15D. 1914, ch. 824.
19. No plan of planting or care of roadside trees shall become operative
under this Section until such plan has been approved by the organization
or person making the application and not until the said organization or
person shall guarantee to the State Forester the cost of the work, in which
the said organization or person may. stipulate a maximum amount that it
or he will guarantee. Upon proper assurance that such a guarantee has been
given, and the planting of trees is desired, the State Forester shall furnish
to the local Forest Warden the trees for planting from any available stock
in a State Forest Nursery or elsewhere. If the planting of trees is not
required, but it is desired to trim, spray, or otherwise care for existing trees
along the portion of the roadside or street for which a plan has been ap-
proved by the State Forester and accepted by such organization or person,
the Forest Warden shall proceed with the work in accordance with such
plans, at such time, and in such manner as in his judgment will be most
practicable, but in executing such plans he shall work under the direction
of the State Forester. When there exists an officer in any city or incor-
porated -town who has been appointed for the specific purpose of planting
and caring for trees along roads or streets, he shall be eligible for appoint-
ment as Forest Warden in carrying out the provisions of this sub-title.
An. Code, sec. 15E. 1914, ch. 824.
20. The State Forester may, in his discretion, without being requested
as provided in Section 18 hereof, or guaranteed as provided in Section 19
hereof, plant, care for, and protect roadside trees and pay for such work out
of any unexpended balance of the amount hereby appropriated or hereafter
appropriated for the purposes of this sub-title; provided, however, that no
trees shall be planted under the provisions of the foregoing Sections without
the consent and approval of the owner of the land on which they are planted.
An. Code. sec. 15F. 1914, ch. 824.
21. It shall be the duty of the Forest Wardens and others having police
powers in this State, in addition to the duties heretofore imposed, to
enforce all laws now enacted or that may be enacted for the care and pro-
tection of roadside trees, and while holding said office, they shall possess
and exercise the power to arrest without warrant anyone detected by them
