When Julius Morton moved to Nebraska City in 1854, he faced a problem shared by many settlers in the territory: It was a treeless plain.

当朱利叶斯·莫顿于1854年搬到内布拉斯加城时，他面临着该地区许多定居者共同面临的问题：这是一片没有树木的平原。

This was largely because Morton founded the Nebraska City News, the state's first newspaper, in which he frequently wrote editorials about the practical and aesthetic benefits of tree planting.

这在很大程度上是因为莫顿创办了内布拉斯加州第一份报纸《内布拉斯加州城市新闻》，他经常在这份报纸上撰写关于植树的实用和美学效益的社论。
