S-8. ELM, CHINESE SIBERIAN-THE OUTSTANDING 
TREE OF THE AGE -No other tree is in as great a demand at the 
present time as the Chinese Elm. It is the fastest growing, most satis¬ 
factory shade, ornamental or windbreak tree. The U. S. Department of 
Agriculture Bulletin 945; says—It is a rapid grower with slender, al¬ 
most wiry branches; is one of the first trees to leaf out in the spring 
and the last to shed its leaves in the fall. Remarkably free from the 
usual plant diseases and insect injury so common to the Elm. It 
is very hardy and has proven valuable under greater varieties of cli¬ 
matic and soil conditions than any tree yet introduced. Its resistance 
to drought, alkali and extremes of temperature render it especially 
valuable. The Chinese Elm is adapted to any part of the United States. 
For windbreak or screen, its natural habit of branching from the ground 
if left untrimmed makes it especially desirable. It will thrive where 
other trees could never exist and will grow to a height of 60 feet, 
attaining a girth of 12 feet, though can be easily controlled by pruning. 
Luxurious shade may be enjoyed in just a few short years and some 
specimens have reached a height of 23 to 25 feet in four years, with 
a spread of 18 feet. (See page 28.)

foliage, this, tree is in big demand. The leaves appear early in spring,

tree that combines beauty with usefulness. The nuts from these trees 
are highly prized, especially for cakes and candies. A group of our 
Native Black Walnut Trees should be on every farm.

Double Row Chinese Elm Windbreak, 2 Years After Planting. 
WHY CHINESE ELM IS THE GREATEST 
CONTRIBUTION TO HORTICULTURE IN YEARS 
1— Because it is a tree of rare beauty with heavy dark green foliage. 
It combines the beauty of the finest Elms with that of the Cut 
Leaf Birch. 
2— Because it is resistant to drought and cold—thrives on poor soil 
and makes progress in the face of neglect. 
3— Because it is a tree of rapid growth—generally attaining a height 
of 8 to 10 feet in two growing seasons. 
4— Because it holds its foliage until late in the fall. 
WINDBREAK TREES 
ARBOR VITAE -Excellent for screen or hedge planting—a rapid 
grower—upright form and conical shape. 
CARAGANA-SIBERIAN PEA TREE- Especially suited for cold, 
dry sections—very hardy-—low growing. Light green foliage—yellow 
flowers forming pods like peas. Will grow anywhere. 
CHINESE SIBERIAN ELM-GENUINE NORTHERN STRAIN 
No farmer can afford to be without a shelter belt of these hardy, 
fast growing windbreak trees. Many of the old farm windbreaks are 
“up in the air’’ the lower limbs and twigs are gone. Supplement your 
old windbreak with a row or two of our Northern Strain Chinese Siberian 
Elm—they grow twiggy and leafy and form a windbreak close to the 
ground. Many farmers are planting several rows of Chinese Siberian 
Elm, outside of the old windbreaks. It will stop the wind and snow 
from coming in around the buildings. Plant in double rows, 12 to 15 
ft. apart, and 4 to 5 ft. apart in the rows. 
NORWAY SPRUCE -This is a beautiful tree—one of the best Ever¬ 
greens for hedges and windbreaks. Perfect pyramidal form. 
SCOTCH PINE -Very hardy and satisfactory windbreak or for 
landscape planting. Will groAV to good size. 
WILLOW, GOLDEN RUSSIAN -Hardy, dependable—a fast grower.
