will outlast the best posts of white cedar. Also by far the best firewood that

NORTHWEST POPLAR. a hardy, drought resistant poplar, native in parts of North Dakota and Mani¬ 
toba. A handsome, fairly fast growing tree, useful as an ornamental in addition to its value in wind¬ 
break and shelter belt planting. Perhaps the most drought resistant of any of the poplars; in ap¬ 
pearance it is intermediate between the cottonwood and Balm of Gilead. 3 to 4 ft., each, 20c; doz., $2.00. 
SILVER-LEAVED POPLAR, a very rapid grower with smooth gray bark. The deeply lobed leaves are 
a dark glossy green on their upper side and snowy underneath. The contrast of the white against the 
green is distinctive. We offer a stock of choice 2 y 2 to 3 ft. trees. Each, 30c; 10, $2,75. 
BOLLEANA POPLAR. This is one of the most ornamental poplars, foliage is silvery beneath, shape tall 
and compact like a Lombardy, perfectly hardy as our stock is grafted on the native cottonwood. A 
particularly useful tree in landscape work and very beautiful. A rapid grower. 3 to 4 ft., each, 40c; 
5, $1.75. 
NORTH DAKOTA BURR OAK. This is one of the most permanent and beau¬ 
tiful of our native trees but rather difficult to transplant. We are furnish¬ 
ing th^m balled and burlapped. 2 to 3 ft., each, 75c. 
BLACK WALNUT. We are very glad to be able to offer at last a hardy strain 
of these fine trees. Our stock has been grown in our own nursery from 
seedlings of Minnesota origin and has survived perfectly with us. 3 to 4 ft.

this handsome ornamental tree and recommend ft highly. Price, each, balled

handsome hardy tree. The head is dense and regular, and very attractive 
when in bloom. From July until Winter these trees are covered with great 
clusters of bright red berries. A very choice ornamental tree. Special price, 
5 to 6 ft. trees, each, 80c; 5 for $3.75. 
CUT LEAF WEEPING BIRCH. This is one of our most beautiful ornamental 
trees, but has been rather difficult to start. We believe, however, that we 
have solved this difficulty by handling them somewhat like evergreens and 
selling them balled in moss. We have some splendid stock. 5 to 6 ft. Price, 
each, $1.30. 
HACKBERRY. This is a native tree of handsome appearance somewhat re¬ 
sembling the elm. Rough bark, very hard wood. Makes a very fine street 
and lawn tree. 3 to 4 ft., each, 40c; 5 for $1.75.

North Dakota trees. Also a wonderful honey producer. A perfect orna¬ 
mental and a fine boulevard tree because of its shade and symmetrical shape.

IIOPA RED FLOWERING CRAB. This is one of Prof. Haijsen’s productions, 
and a most beautiful ornamental. It will attain the height of a small tree 
in time. In May it is a mass of dark crimson blossoms, the foliage has a 
distinct reddish tinge and the small fruits have the same handsome crim¬ 
son color and are borne in profusion. Each, 75c; 10, $7.00. 
may DAY TREE, a handsome Siberian small tree or large shrub resem¬ 
bling our choke cherry but blooming much earlier. In fact its leaves and 
blossoms are about the earliest thing to appear in the Spring. Flowers 
in elongated clusters and very fragrant. In blossom the tree is a mass of 
feathery white plumes. 3 to 4 ft., each, 35c; 10, $3.06. 
GINNALA or AMUR MAPLE. This is a very hardy, small maple from Si¬ 
beria, especially noteworthy on account of its beauty of shape and foliage 
and the glowing colors which it takes on in the Fall. Attains a height 
of 20 to 30 feet, is absolutely hardy and very ornamental. 2 to 3 ft., each, 
40c; 5 for $1.75.
