OSCAR H. WILL & CO., BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA 63. 
_ SHADE AND ORNAMENTAL TREES 
CHINESE or SIBERIAN ELM. As a wood lot, shelter belt or 
grove tree and as a formal or natural hedge this tree has a 
very definite place in Northwestern planting. Drought resist- 
ant and rapid growing beyond almost any other sort. The , 
winter damage of the past year explains why we have stead- 
ily refused to recommend this tree as a street or lawn tree. | 
In spite of the winter injury, which has occurred only once | 
every 15 or 20 years, we still feel that this very fast growing ne 
and drouth resistant tree possesses great value in the Great Siberian Elm 
Plains. Even if it has to be cut back to the ground it will 
recover in a year or so and produce more new growth than could be obtained in the same time by re- 
planting with any other tree. Price, 3 to 4 ft., each, 10c; 10 for $0c; 4 to 6 ft., each, 40c; 5 for $1.75.
