Ornamental Trees lor the Middle Southern States. 

 I. Deciduous Trees. Acer saccharinum (A.dusycar- 

 pum) and A. Neginido, the latter extensively used for 

 street planting. — Broussonetia papyrifera, formerly 

 planted along streets, but objectionable because of the

 trees: an excellent shade tree. — Catalpa. Seldom planted
