TREES 
T nniQt Wnruav Gleditsia Triacanthos. A most valuable 
LUbUsli nuilcy native tree with spreading branches, 
forming a large crown of very good and even shape. The 
leaves are small, coming in sprigs of 18 and more, always free 
from disease or insects. For a hardwood tree this is perhaps 
the most rapid grower, and is perfectly hardy everywhere. Has 
very prominent thorns. This Locust never makes sprouts 
from the roots. The Honey Locust should be planted more 
frequently. 
Locust, Thornless 
Gleditsia Triacanthos Inermis. For 
street and lawn planting it is one 
of the very choicest long-lived hardwood trees. Without prun¬ 
ing it will grow up to a beautiful shade tree, developing a 
splendid crown. It is a fast grower, second only to the Elms. 
Due to an unusually deep root system, grass or flowers can 
be grown with best success even close to this tree; it never 
makes sprouts or suckers from the roots. Entirely hardy, 
healthy and clean. 
Russian Olive 
Poplar, Bolleana 
Eleagnus Angustifolia. A beautiful lawn 
tree with spreading crown, silvery gray 
long narrow leaves. Bark nearly black. Small yellow blos¬ 
soms in the spring which are highly fragrant. Creates a strik¬ 
ing effect on the lawn, in parks or in groups between ever¬ 
greens or tall shrubs. Extremely hardy and drought resistant. 
Grows to a spire of 80 ft. in height, 
leaves shining dark green with sil¬ 
very white underneath. Hardy as far north as Nebraska. Does 
not make root-sprouts. A beautiful tree of striking effect in 
the landscape. 
Nioba Weenincr Willow Near a pool, on the lawn, 
1UOW in parks and cemeteries, 
the Nioba Weeping Willow adds great charm to the land¬ 
scape. Its long, slender branches that touch the ground or 
water-edge in graceful arches, the light green foliage, and 
during the winter the golden yeilow color of bark and branches 
assure you of an attractive tree the year round.

satisfaction. Easy to grow.
