BASSWOOD or LINDEN —I have seen Bass¬ 
wood growing in Manitoba, Canada, perfectly 
hardy and in full, healthy foliage. In my opinion, 
there is not a more beautiful shade tree. Fairly 
fast in growth, it’s perfectly rounded form and 
dense foliage makes it Extra desirable for shade 
and street planting. Heavy Transplanted Trees. 
Size 4-5 ft. Each $1.00; 5-6 ft. Each $1.25. 
BOX ELDER —The Ash-Leaved Maple. 
Rapid in growth, heavy foliage, it makes a good 
QUICK Shade Tree. For windbreak. Box Elder 
has its place and gives results about as quickly 
as a Cottonwood. For the Grove, it provides 
firewood as quickly as any tree that grows. Put 
at least two rows in your windbreak.

NORTHERN CATALPA— Note the beauty 
of the flower! This tree bears great clusters of 
fragrant flowers shaped like a thimble with a 
frilly edge. Its leaves are almost as big as an 
elephant’s ear. They are tropical in appearance 
and one of the Really Good Ornamental trees.

BIRCH—Cut-Leaf Weeping —One of Ameri¬ 
ca’s most beautiful trees and one that is most 
planted of all Weeping Trees. A tall, fairly slen¬ 
der grower, with an erect slender trunk, some¬ 
what pyramidal in shape with graceful, drooping 
branches and glistening silvery-white bark. The 
foliage is deeply and delicately cut, thin, and of a 
beautiful shade of green. The whole tree, itself, 
is a wonderful sight and if you have room for one 
Weeping Tree, this is the one that you should 
plant. Give it plenty of cultivation and it should 
do fine for you.

NORTHERN COTTON WOOD—For wind¬ 
break, grove, or shade, the Cottonwood pro¬ 
duces more quickly than any other tree. It 
makes excellent firewood, fits into the tall grow¬ 
ing part of your windbreak doing excellent Serv¬ 
ice and I like the Cottonwood for shade and the 
restful rustle of its leaves. 
Cottonwoods Serve Well and Cost Little.

PLANT A GROVE OF BLACK WALNUT 
The Black Walnuts growing here at Yankton, S. D. have borne heavy crops of 
large nuts for many years. They are always easily sold but, the Real Value of This 
Tree is in its Beauty as an Ornamental; Its Service in the windbreak; Its profits in 
lumber; And, its hardiness. 
Be sure to add Black Walnuts to 
your 
Tree List and GET GURNEY’S EXTRA 
HARDY TREES.
