CHINESE ELMS 
The seedlings and transplanted stock of 
Chinese Elm Trees we offer are all grown 
from seed picked from our own trees here 
at Mitchell, where we have a variation of 
temperature from 30 degrees below zero in 
winter to 112 degrees in the shade in sum¬ 
mer. These trees are all raised under dry 
land conditions and are impervious to 
drought, heat, or cold. 
Chinese Elms do well in almost any kind 
of soil, and make the most rapid growth 
of any quick growing tree we know of. 
They are the best adapted tree to use for 
a windbreak, not only on account of their 
rapid growth, but also because of the 
wonderful results they give even if they 
are not given any attention.
