Chinese HEDGEWOOD 
(The Chinese Elm Grown Bushy for Hedge Purposes) 
It is found after thorough trial that the Chinese Elm makes one 
of the finest of hedges. Especially desirable for states of slight rain' 
fall and where extreme hardiness 
is required. 
The hedge, limbs clear to the 
ground, is a bright rich green from 
very early in the spring, as it is 
much earlier than other hedges 
and carries its foliage, which colors 
with frost, way into the fall. Trim 
same as privet or other similar hedges. We believe Chinese Hedge' 
wood is going to take the place of Privet as a hedge for the entire north 
part of the country. Plant one foot apart.

Last spring we were 
sold out of Chinese Elm 
a month before the 
shipping season was 
over. If you wish stock 
this spring, you should 
place your order im¬ 
mediately upon receipt 
of catalog. 
It is a beautiful tree with fine elnvlike foliage 
which appears very early in the spring and re' 
mains long into the fall and until most other trees 
have dropped their leaves, at the same time taking 
on wonderfully rich tints of color. 
It is a very rapid growing tree and soon makes 
a large tree 60 ft. tall. 
Naturally it limbs close to the ground and be' 
cause of this fact and its dense limb growth it 
makes a wonderful windbreak tree. For wind' 
break purposes no other tree can be found that 
will compare with it. 
Because of its rapid growth and its great 
beauty, it is especially adapted to street plant' 
ing and for individual trees on the lawn. 
Chinese Elm 
The Chinese Elm as a tree comes from the cold dry regions of Northern 
China and Southern Northeastern Siberia. It is consequently very hardy 
and a splendid tree for use in the drier portions of our country. 
Since its introduction but a few years ago it has gained a wonderful 
popularity and is now growing all over the United States. No new tree 
ever grew into popu- 
lar favor so rapidly.
