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, wintery winds. If your farm buildings are protected by a windbreak, 
your cows will give more milk, your steers make more gains, 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 windbreak. No matter 
whether you live in North Dakota or Texas, plant Chinese Elm. It grows equally well in both states 
and all in between. 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.

If you remember about two years ago we got some 
mighty fine trees from you. In spite of the drought that 
year they grew. The cherry trees had some fruit on this 
year and they were fine. The Chinese elm is a fine shade 
tree now, think we will get some more in the spring. I 
wanted to tell you how well satisfied we were.—Mrs. 
Edgar Truster, Collinsville, Ohio. 
The trees you sent me came in splendid condition and 
if they do not grow it will not be your fault.—W. A. 
Hinterman, 1128 Broadway, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
