TTnriPV T.fiPllRt Gleditsia Triacan- 
IlUIiey .LiULUbL t hos. A valuable 
native tree with spreading branches 
forming a broad rather loose crown. Of 
rapid growth, I can recommend it for the 
West where not all trees are successful. 
This locust makes no sprouts from the 
roots, in fact flowers or lawn will do 
extra well under these trees 
Thornless Honey Locust 
Gleditsia Triancanthos Inermis. Neither 
of the Honey Locusts will make root- 
suckers, both are clean trees, perfectly 
hardy. For street or lawn planting I pre¬ 
fer the Thornless Honey Locust. It is a 
rapid growing tree of exceptionally fine 
form; you can have the finest lawn or 
flower beds under this tree. Does well 
most anywhere, especially in the West, 
Northwest and North. 
THE MAPLES 
l am offering you the rapid growing Soft 
or Silver Maple which is very popular, 
and the rare and beautiful Norway Maple, 
Yellow Maple and Sugar Maple. The 
latter are thr.ee long lived hardwood trees. 
Soft or Silver Maple £ as c yc e ar :: 
pum. Next to the American Elm prob¬ 
ably the most popular tree. It is a rapid 
grower, hardy everywhere and easily 
transplanted. The younger trees should 
ne pruned in the summer, at no other 
time. 
Norway Maple 
feet outline with deep green foliage. My 
father placed this tree above all others 
on account of its beautiful crown. Per¬ 
fectly hardy and clean. 
Yellow Maple iwch"; 
resembles closely in habit of growth and 
in foliage. The young twigs and body of 
this tree, however, are golden yellow, and 
contrast splendidly among other trees, 
especially in the winter. I have 4-6 foot 
trees of this variety, price $1.50 each. 
CInrrar* TWanlo Acer saccharum. 
OUgdl jyicipm Grows up to a large 
pyramidal tree. The foliage is large and 
handsome, and of rich, pleasing green 
turning to a most showy orange-yellow 
and red in autumn. Its beautiful shape, 
and its adaptability to different soils has 
rendered it one of the most desirable 
trees. Very hardy. 
THE OAKS 
'piyi rtnlr Quercus palustris. Land- 
scapers are turning their 
attention more and more to this tree. I 
know of no tree that would rival the Pin 
Oak in beauty. Entirely hardy, fairly 
rapid growing, and it holds the leaves all 
through the winter. They fall in the 
spring when the new buds begin to open, 
and above all a most symmetrical ar¬ 
rangement of the limbs that could best be 
called a masterpiece of nature’s archi¬ 
tecture. 
"WViifo riaI t- Quercus Alba. The na- 
W Ili.bc VJctil tive Oak of rugged 
growth, fine crown, and very hardy. 
Probably the longest live tree you can 
plant. 
Russian Olive 
Eleagnus Angusti- 
folia. Very hardy. 
makes a medium sized tree with silvery 
foliage. Contrasts beautifully among trees 
and tall shrubs of green foliage. A fa¬ 
vorite with the landscapers for the color 
effect. Wherever you wish a small to 
medium size tree with showy foliage plant 
this fine tree. 
Siberian Pea Tree alrdYevery: 
where. Makes a good small tree in the 
North. I recommend it especially for tall 
screens.

Cltroamoro Platanus Occidentalis. A

tree with spacious crown and large, deep 
green foliage. It is hardy here, but I can¬ 
not recommend it for the North. Claimed 
to be one of the best trees for the cities 
where it stands the smoke and gas very 
well. 
Golden Willow 
good, hardy tree, 
especially for the North and Northwest. 
Grows rapidly, and makes an all-purpose 
tree for windbreak as well as for orna¬ 
ment.

WEEPING TREES 
Nioba Weeping Willow ^ e /r 
this tree is found near to a pool, on the 
lawn, in parks and in cemeteries, its 
long, slender branches that almost reach 
the ground, its light green foliage and in 
the winter the yellow color of the 
branches attract much attention. Very 
hardy and grows rapidly. 
Tea’s Weeping Mulberry 
Will not grow taller after planting. The 
crown will always be at a height of 6 to 7 
feet, well branched and dense, and the 
long, vine-like branches will soon touch 
the ground. This is an admirable tree 
with a good dark-green foliage. My trees 
are 5-6 feet tall with nice two-year heads 
for $2.10 each; or per pair for $3.60. 
Cutleaf Weeping Birch slender 
growth with gracefully drooping branches. 
This, together with the white bark of the 
tree, makes it highly ornamental.
