Onnamental Trees 
BASSWOOD (American Linden). One of the most beautiful trees. 
Grows into a great tall pyramidal tree with very large roundish leaves 
and is covered with yellow bloom at flowering time. It is from the 
Basswood bloom that our finest white honey comes. 5 to 6 ft., $1.25 
BIRCH, Cut-Leaf Weeping. We have always considered this one of the 
most graceful as well as among the most beautiful of all the orna- 
mental trees of the weeping type. It seems to fit in anywhere it is 
planted, and after it is once established its owner seems to love it as 
no other tree. A beautiful upright growing tree with long, slender, 
gracefully weeping branches. The leaves are delicately cut, the bark 
a brownish green at first, gradually turning to a pure glistening white. 
Nice 5 to 6 ft. trees, $2.25 each; $4.00 per pair 


ELM, American White. Greatest of all American trees. Beautiful 
tree that grows to tremendous size. Fits itself into more places 
in planting than any other tree we have. Fine for lawn and grove, 
and the finest of all boulevard trees. 
We have a large stock in small sizes at special bargain prices. 
Nice 4-5 ft. trees, 10 for $2.00; 
100 for $15.00, not prepaid 
Nice 5-6 ft. trees, each 50c; 10 for $4.00; 
100 for $25.00, not prepaid 
25 trees or over at the 100 price 











ELM, American White. For farm plantings for either grove or wind- 
break. Greatest, long lasting tree for this purpose for Minnesota and 
similar locations.

ELM, Chinese. The Chinese Elm is a beautiful ornamental and wind- 
break tree that has taken the entire country by storm. The fastest 
growing tree that we know of. Will grow into a big tree within five 
or six years from planting. This tree is adapted to high, dry loca- 
tions and in such places is one of our best trees. Adapted to lawn and 
boulevard planting and also makes the fastest growing windbreak 
tree we know of. Especially fine for a farm windbreak. We have an 
immense stock of the finest Chinese Elm trees we have ever grown 
and where trees are wanted in 50, 100, and 1000 lots, we shall be 
pleased to submit rock bottom prices. Not adapted to deep rich, nor 
wet soils.

ELM, Lake City. The Lake City Elm is a selection made at Lake City, 
Minnesota, of a very fine specimen of the American White Elm, the 
greatest ornamental tree we have in America. The tree selected was 
a remarkably beautiful tree. All propagating has been from this one 
specimen so the young trees will all be like this one parent when they 
are mature. These trees need no trimming. We offer Lake City Elm 
in fine, 5 to 6 ft. trees, $1.25 each; 2 for $2.25 
6 to 8 ft. trees, $1.50 each; 2 for $2.75 
HONEY LOCUST. One of the most widely distributed trees in the 
United States is the graceful Honey Locust. We offer what is called 
the Thornless Honey Locust. Occasionally there is a tree without 
thorns but most trees show thorns but not as bad as the regular 
old type. 5-6 ft., $1.00; 2 for $1.90 
6-8 ft., Heavy, $1.50; 2 for $2.75 
KENTUCKY COFFEE TREE. A tall, fast-growing upright tree often 
found native this far north, so it is perfectly hardy. A fine ornamental 
tree for the lawn or to grow in clusters. The foliage is 2 to 3 ft. long, 
of great grace and beauty. Greenish white flowers in long panicles 
come on the end of the current year’s growth and are followed by 
interesting clusters of large, flat, red seed pods which hang on all 
winter. This tree is a native as far north as about Faribault and is 
perfectly hardy on the prairies of South Dakota. It should be headed 
back at 8 feet when it develops into a beautiful round topped tree. 
Small Trees, 3-4 ft., 60c; 2 for $1.00 
4-5 ft., 80c; 2 for $1.50 
Large Trees, 5-6 ft., $1.25; 2 for $2.25 
6-8 ft., $1.50; 2 for $2.75 
MAPLE, Schwedler. This is the beautiful Red Maple. The trees have 
the same beauty of growth that our native Hard Maple has. But in 
the spring from the time growth starts and for about six weeks, the 
tree is absolutely red. One of our hardiest and most beautiful trees. 
To grow a good Schwedler Maple the limbs should be allowed to 
grow close to the ground. Have low limbs on the south side if pos- 
sible to shade the trunk and save the tree from sun-scald. 
Nice 5- to 6-ft. trees, each, $1.60; pair, $3.00 
MAY DAY TREE. A Bird Cherry from Eastern Siberia worthy of a place 
on every lawn. Especially adaptable to the middle northwest where 
very hardy drought resistant trees are required. It is remarkable for 
being the first tree in this part of the country to come into full leaf. 
The large green leaves and wealth of white blossoms early in the 
spring make the tree highly ornamental. The blooms are pure white 
and resemble those of our native Choke Cherry, but are much larger. 
It can be grown either as a tree or as a large bush about 12 feet high. 
Extremely noticeable when in bloom as the bush or tree is so abso- 
lutely hidden by the bloom and the white is so pure that it stands right 
out from all else. Strong 3-4 ft., 80c; 2 for $1.50 
Select heavy specimens, 3-4 ft., $1.00; 2 for $1.90 

plant one or more. 
MAY DAY TREE. We sold May Day Trees throughout this section of the country years 
ago. Wherever planted, either as shrub or tree, they have done well and now always 
create a sensation in the spring when in full bloom. You will not be dissapointed if you
