SHADE AND ORNAMENTAL TREES 
At Prices You Can Afford to Pay 
PLANT TREES TODAY FOR TOMOR¬ 
ROW’S SHADE—The recurring droughts 
have proven it is necessary that more 
trees be planted. The Government is do¬ 
ing its part, but it is up to us to help. 
Plant more trees, but be sure that they 
are nursery grown and have been in¬ 
spected against scale and other tree dis¬ 
eases. Do not buy your trees of some 
man who offers to go out and dig you a 
“creek dug” tree for 50c or so. It will 
prove costly at any price. 
CATALPA BUNGEII — Umbrella Ca- 
talpa—Just the tree to be used for 
formal effect. Propagated on a stem 
of the Catalpa Speciosa. It makes a 
very unique ornamental tree. Has a 
broad dome-shaped head at the top of 
a long straight stem. When the tree 
attains its full growth the top is often 
15 feet in diameter, on top of a strong 
stem from 7 to 8 feet in height. Very 
hardy. Extra nice specimens at $2.00 
each. 
ELMS—American White—One of our 
best native trees, making a beautiful 
lawn or street tree, growing to be 
about 50 to 75 feet high with droop¬ 
ing, spreading branches. We have a 
nice block of extra straight, smooth, 
and well rooted American Elms and 
note these low prices—much lower 
than you will find elsewhere.

ELMS—Vase Shape—An American Elm 
with vase formation of limbs. Uniform 
type, because all are “budded” from an 
original tree. This tree is a very rapid 
growing Elm and is also a distinct and 
improved variety over our American 
Elm. This variety is resistant to bor¬ 
ers and other insects of the common 
Elms. Costs a little more, but they are 
worth it.

ELMS — CHINESE — Hardy Siberian 
strain of Chinese Elm trees, which 
thrive everywhere, even in the coldest 
climates and on the poorest of soil. 
This tree grows very rapidly, forming 
a semi-conical, dense head. May be 
shaped as desired. The leaves are dark 
green, fine and artistically cut. The 
Chinese Elms are not subject to dis¬ 
eases of other Elms. This has proven 
to be a popular street, park and shade 
tree in southern Kansas and northern 
Oklahoma. We offer only well rooted 
and well branched trees. Our prices 
are about one half asked by many 
nurseries for trees of this character 
and quality.

LINDEN — A round-headed tree with 
large heart-shaped, bright green foli¬ 
age. A fairly rapid growing tree and 
one of our prettiest of the hard 
wooded varieties for use in southern 
Kansas and northern Oklahoma. We 
have some excellent trees in this va¬ 
riety running 5 to 6 foot at $1.50 
each. 
MAPLE—Soft or Silver—A very rapid 
growing tree of graceful, spreading 
habit, with leaves of light green above 
and silver underneath. Desirable for 
either lawn or street planting. Will 
grow in poor and dry soil. We have a 
nice block of these in straight well-
