hardy tree, the head is dense and regular, 
covered in June with a mass of white flow' 
ers, later with yellow berries, which turn 
into bright scarlet and last long into winter, 
very beautiful. 6 to 8 ft., #1.25 each. 
LOMBARDY POPLAR (Populus nigra ital 
ica). In shape this is the exclamation mark 
among trees. Its towering spire has an in' 
dividuality all its own. For tall screens and 
backgrounds, this tree is admirable. 6 to 8 
ft., 40c each. 
POPLAR, CAROLINA. One of the most 
rapid growing trees, with large, handsome, 
glossy, deep green leaves. Succeeds every' 
where. Pyramidal in form, making a 
spreading head and dense shade when prop- 
erly trimmed. Grasshoppers will not eat the 
leaves. 8 ft., 40c each, not prepaid. 4 ft., 
10 for #1.00, prepaid. 
NIOBE WEEPING WILLOW. Much a P ' 
preciated in landscape planting because of 
its golden bark. No other tree affords so 
brilliant a color. Rapid grower. 6 to 8 ft., 
#1.00 each. 
ELM, WASHINGTON. Large native tree; wide, 
spreading head, graceful drooping branches. Easy 
to transplant, hardy. One of the best. 8 to 10 ft.,

MAPLE, SOFT or SILVER. The most rapid growing 
shade tree that you can plant. Leaves are finely cut, 
bright green on upper side and whitish on lower 
side. They are not a silvery white, though, as those 
of the Silver Poplar. For quick results, Soft Maple 
is one of the best trees. 6 to 8 ft., 50c each; 5 to 6 
ft., 35c each. 
CHINESE ELM. Will give luxuriant shade in 5 years. 
Stands more drought than any other tree known.

this. It is a tree of rare beauty. It has dense, dark 
green foliage, with delicate, graceful sprays similar to 
the Cutleaf Birch. 5 to 6 ft., 45c each; 6 to 8 ft.,
