Exceptionally hardy and rapid growing. Thrives in any soil and under

men and windbreak tree. Our trees are of excellent quality, northern strain, 
the finest in the Northwest. 1. It resists drought and cold. 2. Thrives on 
poor soils and makes a showing in spite of neglect. 3. Rapid growing. Not 
uncommon for a 2 foot seedling in the nursery row to become a 10 foot tree 
in two seasons. 4. Holds foliage until late in fall—adding three or four 
weeks to growing season. 5. Of rare beauty. It combines the beauty of the 
best Elms with the gracefulness of the cut leaf birch. We do not advise plant¬
