If mother nature had to give a tree that would combine all the desirable qualities of 
tree-life, she really could not offer anything greater and finer than the Pin Oak. 
It grows without pruning to a beautiful shape which can be described only by pictures. 
It grows fast, in 12 years time it has outgrown even the fastest growing soft-wood trees. 
It is hardy everywhere, resists drought very well, it is free from diseases. It’s hard- 
wood branches never break or split, not in storms nor in heavy snows. 
It tops every other tree in late fall when the leaves turn to a rich red-brown color, and 
remain on the tree until early spring. For shade, for ornament, on the lawns of city or 
country homes, for street-planting or in parks, think of Pin Oaks, include at least some

The Pin Oak is not a new tree. It is one of our oldest trees, and the test of time speaks 
overwhelmingly in its favor. But in other years it was always considered an expensive 
tree, selling usually from 3 to 10 dollars depending on the size. This year, and perhaps 
only this year we offer this tree at special low prices, good only for the spring 1943 plant- 
ing season.
