HACKBERRY. 
Oldest Chinese Elm Tree in Kansas 
This is a mid-winter picture of the first Chinese Elm tree 
planted in Kansas. It was planted on the Fort Hays Branch 
Experiment Station Farm, Hays, Kansas, in 1912. It is 
now 26 years of age, approximately 50 feet in height and in 
the prime of rigor and health. It has withstood the droughts, 
the heat and cold and the wind and hail of the past 26 years, 
as well as the grasshopper invasion of 1936, and is still 
growing rigorously 
The Hackberry is an exceedingly hardy 
drought resistant tree. It is one of the most 
satisfactory trees for street and yard planting 
in Kansas.
