PINUS PONDEROSA—of Colorado. 
Heavy wooded pine, a rapid grower, forming a tree of great size. Bark 
reddish and foliage longer and coarser than the Red and Norway Pine. A val¬ 
uable tree for the west and northwest. 
DWARF MOUNTAIN PINE—Pinus Montana. 
It is a beautiful little tree or bush, foliage very dense and of a rich, dark 
green; very valuable for ornamental purposes. It is perfectly hardy in the 
most exposed situations. 
JUNIPERUS VIRGINIANA. 
Red Cedar.—A well known American tree. It varies much in habit and 
color of foliage. It succeeds well on the plains of Nebraska and Kansas, the 
Dakotas and Minnesota where other Evergreens fail. It is very desirable for 
ornamental purposes; also for wind breaks, shelter belts and hedges. Hardy 
everywhere. 
AMERICAN ARBOR VIT^E—Thuya Occidentals. 
A handsome tree of regular and symmetrical habits. Growth thick and 
bushy; one of the best and most useful Evergreens; excellent for screens and 
hedges. 
PYRAMIDAL ARBOR VIT^E. 
A superb new and hardy sort, of very compact habit; much better than 
the Irish Juniper, and growing in a perfect column; rare and beautiful. 
Largely planted in cemeteries, owing to the small amount of space it oc¬ 
cupies. This is, perhaps, the most valuable Arbor Vitas in cultivation. 
PINUS DIVARICATA. 
Jack Pine, from northern Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota. It thrives 
in the poorest soils and low places, especially soils of a sandy nature and on 
this account it will (ill a long-felt want in the states of Nebraska, Kansas, 
Oklahoma and Colorado, as well as the more northern and northwestern 
states. It thrives in rich soils as well as on the barren wastes and sand hills 
of Nebraska. 
AMERICAN WHITE SPRUCE—Picea Alba. 
Pyramidal tree of dense growth, with light, silvery, green foliage. A 
more compact tree in all respects than the Norway Spruce. Fine for lawn 
planting or use near the seashore. Valuable for hedges. One of the best for 
general use. 
BLACK HILL SPRUCE. 
This valuable Evergreen, sometimes called Picea Alba or White Spruce, 
is only found, so far as I am able to ascertain, in the Black Hills of South 
Dakota, and does not resemble the White Spruce except somewhat in its 
habits of growth. It has positively proved itself to be the very hardiest of 
the Conifer family. During the trying winter of 1898-1899, as I am sure 
nurserymen will remember, nearly all of our hardy Evergreens, including the 
Norway Spruce, winter-scalded, their needles all turning brown and render¬ 
ing them unsalable for that year. Nearly the same conditions occurred again 
two years ago, 1903 and 1904. The Black Hill Spruce, notwithstanding they 
were in the most exposed place, were not in the least discolored. 
This Evergreen will meet the requirements of a vast field, too dry or too 
cold for other varieties.
