• ASH POSSESSION 
This is one of the most valuable of all 
for northern and northwestern South Dakota 
and North Dakota. In planting in that section, 
you should make your planting largely of the Ash. 
It is an upright grower, with beautiful foliage, 
perfectly hardy and best for the high and dry 
places, or where a hard pan is close to the top of 
the ground. It will thrive in that part of the 
country where ninety per cent of the popula¬ 
tion will say that trees cannot be produced.

This is a rapid growing tree, producing fire¬ 
wood of good quality about as quickly as any 
tree will. Very hardy and long lived; is not a 
beautiful tree but it is desirable in your wind¬ 
break or groves on the farm. We do not advise 
the planting of these for street trees or in city 
parks, but intersperse a row of Box Elder in 
your grove on the farm for quick protection.

American Elm 
• BIRCH — Cut-Leaf Weeping

trunk, somewhat pyramidal in shape with 
branches and glistening 
The foliage is deeply and 
delicately cut, thin, and of 
a beautiful shade of green. 
The whole tree, itself, is a 
wonderful sight and if you 
have room for one Weeping 
Tree, this is the one that 
you should plant. Give it 
plenty of cultivation and it 
will do fine for you.

SIBERIAN PEA TREE 
(Caragana Arborescens) 
A very hardy, low growing tree from Siberia; 
excellent for hedge purposes, for snow breaks, or 
ornamental specimens. The trees in the spring 
are covered with racemes of yellow flowers, later 
forming pods like peas. The bark is light green 
in color, the foliage light green with silvery back¬ 
ground. Exceptionally good for dry, cold climates. 
If you have had difficulty in starting windbreaks, 
groves and other trees try these, they will give 
you a start. Per Per Per Per

spreading tree that will live longer than several 
generations of people and increases in beauty 
each year. It is free from diseases and insetts, 
and wind seldom if ever breaks or damages it.
