VV lULc; Wood very valuable 
for lumber and fire wood. The Ash is a 
hardwood tree and probably one of the 
fastest growers of the hardwood type. 
Does well anywhere, perfectly hardy even 
in Canada; also resists the heat and 
drought of the Middle West. White Ash 
should be in every wood-lot planting.

Catalpa Speciosa <L h ta e i Pa Ha ™s 
is a tree of tall, upright growth, large 
light green leaves. To make up the tall 
growth in a windbreak, one row of these 
Catalpas in the center will be very ef¬ 
fective. The wood of this catalpa is of 
great value for posts, and due' to the 
rapid growth of the tree, and its straight, 
tall stem, the posts are easy to grow, and 
are very straight. Having hard wood, the 
posts last for marly years.

hardy; can be grown with best success 
anywhere.

All grades of seedlings, shrubs

are measured not Including the roots. As 
many other nurseries measure roots and 
all in their grades, my 6 to 9 Inch seed¬ 
lings would correspond with an 18 inch 
grade of other quotations. It Is therefore 
well that you make certain of the actual 
size of stock before you buy.

Amorimn 1 Jim us Ameri- 
• rlIHcIll,UIl cana. I know of 
no other shade and timber tree that 
would be so popular as the American 
Elm, especially in the Middle West. It 
is a fairly rapid grower and is hardy 
most anywhere. The tree makes a large 
spreading crown, very suitable for shade 
and street planting. Include American 
Elm in your wood-lot or timber planting.

P , 1 rn Ulmus P u m i 1 1 a. 
Calm when you plant Chi¬ 
nese Elm's be sure they are the true 
hardy Ulmus Pumilla strain, because not 
all Chinese Elms are fully hardy. My 
seedlings are of the northern hardy type 
which can be planted safely anywhere 
and will be perfectly hardy. The Chinese 
Elm is the most rapid growing free; it 
has also come through our last four years 
of extreme drought in remarkably good 
condition. Farmers everywhere, as well 
as towripeople, are replanting much of 
their lost trees and timber with Chinese 
Elms, knowing how fast this tree grows. 
Note the nice row of Chinese Elms, up¬ 
per right hand corner page 17; a protec¬ 
tion to nearby fields from hot winds, a 
snowtrap in the winter.

Celtis Occidentalis. A 
naCKDerry most valuable tree 
that should be included in any timber 
planting. One of the very best for a long- 
lived shade tree. Very hardy, and un¬ 
usually drought-resistant. I recommend 
it especially for wood-lots and for shade.
