CHINESE ELMS 
America's Fastest Selling Tree for Windbreaks, Shade Trees. 
The outstanding tree today. The Chinese Elm is the fast¬ 
est growing and the fastest selling tree offered today and 
all for very good reasons. In five years a Chinese Elm 
makes a beautiful shade tree. For Windbreak it is unsur¬ 
passed, both because of the thickness of its growth and 
because of the quick results that it gives. 
Chinese Elms are especially good in dry soils. They 
thrive anywhere and are long lived. The U. S. Department 
of Agriculture recommends them as adapted to any part of 
the United States. They originated in Asia where the con¬ 
ditions are very difficult. They thrived there where other 
trees could never exist. They'll stand cold, drouth and heat. 
A WINDBREAK FOR EVERY FARM 
The dust storms of the past few years have shown us 
the urgent need of windbreaks in summer. And they break 
the force of the cold, wintry winds. If your farm buildings 
are protected by a windbreak, your cows will give more 
milk, your steers make more gain, your hens lay more 
eggs, and it will take less fuel to heat your home. A 
windbreak does good summer and winter. Makes farming 
more pleasant and profitable. 
Below are listed younger Chinese Elm seedling trees. 
They are especially fine for windbreak and wood lot 
planting. No tree will make a windbreak as quickly as 
these young Chinese Elm. It leafs out very early in the 
spring and the leaves hang on very late in the fall. It has 
such a dense mass of twigs, branches and limbs, that 
even with the leaves off, it makes a very effective wind¬ 
break. It stands cold, it stands heat, it even stands alkali. 
We have a fine lot of these Chinese Elm and we are 
making the lowest price we have ever made so that EVERY 
FARM CAN HAVE A WINDBREAK. Plant yours this spring. 
In less than 5 years, you will write us, telling us that you 
wouldn't take hundreds of dollars for your windbreak.

“X'L” Hardy Hedges 
FOR BEAUTY—PRIVACY—PROTECTION 
A friendly, living hedge will give a touch of privacy to 
your home, yet it will not interfere with the view. Beautiful 
along walks, driveway and lot lines. Each passing year 
adds to its beauty. Our plants are grown especially for 
hedging. They are hardy, stocky, well-branched and nicely 
rooted. They will give you quick results. If you want a 
good tight hedge, plant one foot apart. With each order 
we send planting instructions telling how to make the best 
hedge. 
CHINESE ELM —Grows like magic. In China, its original 
home, it has been used as a hedge for centuries. It can 
be kept trimmed to a medium height hedge or a taller 
screen. Makes an immense number of small twigs, just 
full of leaves. Therefore when trimmed it makes a very 
compact, dense hedge. Perfectly hardy and planted in 
every state. Grows so rapidly that it will make a hedge 
in just a few months. The more you trim it, the bushier 
it gets. As it becomes known, we believe that it will be 
planted for hedging by the millions. HARDY, BEAUTIFUL, 
FAST GROWING AND PRICED VERY LOW.
