with a bushy head. This recent introduction is very hardy, thriving under dry 
conditions. It will thrive in sandy or poor soil where most other trees fail. For 
a windbreak on the prairie or where a dense screen is desired this tree has no 
equal, A very desirable tree for the lawn. The Chinese Elm will stand the smoke

Chinese Elm (For windbreak or woodlot see page 22.) 
ELM, Chinese Hybrid. This tree is the product of a cross between 
the American Elm and the Chinese Elm. Consequently it is a 
blend of the characteristics of these two. Leaves are larger 
than the Chinese Elm and branches are not as numerous. The 
general form of the tree resembles the American Elm. A 
peculiar character.stic is that the tree is even more rapid in 
growth than the Chinese Elm, which is a rapid grower. The 
root system is deep rather than spreading. 
CRAB, Flame. (Minnesota No. 635.) This is primarily an orna- 
mental crab but the fruits, though small, make an excellent 
red jelly. The flowers are similar to other crabs but are borne 
in great profusion. The tree is compact in growth and of 
medium size, suitable for lawn planting. The fruits are a 
brilliant red and hang tenaciously to the trees until mid- 
winter, months after the leaves have fallen. The effect is a 
mass of flaming red color from August until November. Trees 
5 to 6 feet high often have 250 or more brilliant red colored 8 to 10 ft. high...... $1.00 Wa/2 ste ClOM acai ah $2.00
