THE HACKBERRY 
(Celtis Occidentals) 
The Hackberry is a native well into the Da¬ 
kotas, and there are wonderful specimens of 
these growing along the rivers, creeks and 
ravines. It is a perfectly hardy, rapid growing, 
beautifully shaped tree. % When planted alone, 
allowing it to have plenty of room for spread, it 
forms into the best-shaped of any of the hard¬ 
wood trees. It is well to give it considerable 
room in planting. Heavy winds will not break 
them. Second only to Chinese Elm in drought 
resistance. 
I am showing here the picture of a Hackberry 
tree in front of the telephone office at Yankton, 
South Dakota. This tree spreads more than 40 
feet, is a perfect globe, and is noticed and com¬ 
mented on by practically every visitor to this city.

CAROLINA AND NORWAY POPLAR. We 
grow thousands of these each year, and they are 
known as the “Sudden Saw Log.” A one-year-old 
tree, grown from a cutting, has been known to 
grow 12 feet high in one season. No other tree 
will produce this growth. Very hardy and, un¬ 
like the cottonwood, never bears cottonlike seed. 
Either variety.

THE SILVER LEAF POPLAR makes one of 
the largest of grove or ornamental trees. Fast in 
growth, it is hardy and sturdy. The leaves are 
silvery white on the under side and pale green 
above. The slightest wind makes them flicker 
like a myriad of lights. Plant Silver Leaf Poplar 
for grove, windbreak or shade. They grow 
anywhere.

LOCUST 
IDAHO BLACK LOCUST 
Fragrant Flowers and Vigorous Growth 
The seed was gathered in the mountainous re¬ 
gions of Northern Idaho. They are remarkably 
fast in growth and much hardier than ordinary 
Black Locust. Many of our one year seedlings 
are over four feet high. For fence posts, the 
Black Locust leads everywhere. For holding the 
soil on a hillside it’s one of the best. For vigorous 
growth in the Windbreak you will want Gur¬ 
ney’s Idaho Black Locust Seedlings. 
PRICES: 
HONEY LOCUST

The wood is hard and serviceable. You CAN’T 
go wrong with Gurney’s Honey Locust.
