The  slender,  towering  form  of  the  Lombardy  Poplar 
(Populus  nigra,  var.  fastigata)is  conspicuous  in  all  landscapes, 
either  formal  or  informal.  Planted  closely  together,  they 
make  quick-growing,  high  screens,  which  are  as  inexpensive 
and  effective  as  anything  which  can  be  planted.  Our  trees 
are  heavily  branched  from  the  ground  and  of  superior  quality.

OUERCUS.   THE  OAKS 
THESE  grand  trees,  possessing  so  many  virtues,  do  not  grow  slowly,  as  it  is  often  supposed.  Their 
great  vigor  and  hardihood  enable  them  to  withstand  the  drought  of  hillsides  and  the  caustic  influ- 
ence of  sea  spray.  Their  broad,  spreading  heads  make  them  desirable  shade  trees  for  lawns,  parks, 
public  grounds  and  avenues.  The  brilliant  Autumnal  coloring  of  some  species  is  everywhere  commented 
upon.    Our  Oaks  are  frequently  transplanted,  and  when  thus  cared  for,  are  not  difficult  to  establish.

Seldom  requires  trimming  or  attention,  and  will 
reach  a  ripe  old  age.  Well  adapted  for  lawn  and 
park  plantings  or  for  avenue  use.  Our  trees  have 
been  frequently  transplanted,  and  are  in  splendid
