Do You Want Quick Shade- 
Do You Want Immediate Effect? 
The Chinese Elm Will Give You Both If You Plant Glen’s North China 
Strain Chinese Elm. Don’t Wait. Plant This Season. Order Now. 
Who wants to wait for 10 years for shade that may be had in 5? Our Chinese 
Elm not only gives you quick shade but beauty as well and at small cost. Just think 
of it, a tree as hardy as an oak, as graceful as a Cut Leaf Birch and faster growing 
than the Carolina Poplar with none of the undesirable root characteristics of the 
Poplar. It is strictly an Elm but the fastest growing tree we have ever seen. It 
grows rapidly even in poor soil. The Chinese Elm is here to stay. It is sweeping this 
country by storm. We receive thousands of letters from our customers who have planted 
our North China Strain of Chinese Elm but only have room to reprint a few as follows: 
What Our Customers Write Us 
From C. D. Madden, Clarksville, Ohio. “About 
4 years ago we bought a 6 ft. Chinese Elm from 
you which has now reached the height of almost 
30 feet. Everyone comments on its beauty and 
how fast it has grown.” 
From W. E. Straup, Circulation Mgr., The 
Farmers Guide, Huntington, Ind. “We already 
have 20 of your Chinese Elm Trees on our place 
and like them very much. They are all you 
claim for them.” 
From Mrs. C. Frank Dolman, 1724 Beaver St., 
Parkersburg, W. Va. “We bought 2 Chinese 
Elms from your nursery in Spring, 1932. They 
are now large, fine shade trees and admired by 
everyone. They are a beautiful shape.” 
From Mrs. George R. Taggert, 613 Maryland 
Ave., Adams, Pa. “My Chinese Elm is growing 
beautifully and is a most graceful and beautiful 
shade tree.” 
From H. R. Clark, Adrian State Bank Bldg., 
Adrian, Mich. “I want to take this occasion to 
tell you the Chinese Elm which I purchased from 
you 4 or 5 years ago has grown from a tree 
4 to 5 ft in height to a large tree. I will not 
dare to give you the size but it is a wonderful tree 
and already affords a nice amount of shade.” 
From E. C. Holt, 702 North Carolina Bank and 
Trust Bldg., Burlington, N. C. “Please send me 
10 Chinese Elms, 5-6 ft. Please give me good 
selection as I want most of these for my neigh¬ 
bors. We are amazed at the growth of the one I 
bought from you several years ago.” 
From Mr. George Simmons, 70 Mount Pleasant 
Ave., Troy, N. Y. “I have one of your Chinese 
Elms which I purchased about 3 years ago. It 
has grown splendidly and makes a great deal of 
shade. The tree is now about 28 ft. tall.”
