QUERCUS.    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  cornmented 
upon.    Our  Oaks  are  frequently  transplanted,  and  when  thus  cared  for,  are  not  difficult  to  establish. 
White  Oak 
Ouercus  alba.  (L)  A  well-known  grand  old 
native  tree,  with  broad,  spreading  head.  It  grows 
easily  in  most  any  soil,  and,  contrary  to  general 
belief,  does  not  grow  slowly.  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  condition  for 
planting.
