tree with deeply cut foliage of glossy dark green which turns dark

which best withstood the hurricane of September, 1938.

Quercus rubra—Red Oak 
QUERCUS - Oak 
Splendid trees, rather slow growing at first, but when once estab' 
lished develop amazingly within a few years. They are of noble 
proportions and give an impression of boundless strength and vigor. 
They make pleasing and inexpensive trees for boulevard or street 
planting and they cast a welcome shade as lawn specimens. Oaks 
hold their richly colored foliage well into the winter. 
Quercus alba. White Oak. 100 ft. (Lm.) Lofty and dignified tree 
which attains great age and nobility. One of our noblest forest 
trees and a fairly rapid grower when once established. This is the 
true Ship Oak, used extensively in olden times for the con' 
struction of the famous clipper ships, and fishing vessels. Each 
6 to 8 ft.$4.00 
Q. bicolor. Swamp White Oak. 100 ft. (Lr.) Thrives in wet locations, 
but does equally well in well drained soils. It has a round'topped, 
open head and is one of the fastest growing Oaks.
