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 or any 
state in between, plant Chinese Elm. It grows in all states. It stands cold, it stands heat, it 
even stands alkali. Plant them 4 to 6 feet apart. 
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 you wouldn’t take hundreds of dollars for 
your windbreak.
