Honey LOCUSTS 
The photos above were taken in the Beatrice Chautauqua Park, showing left to right: 
Thornless Honey Locust, 8 years old—the same tree taken in the winter. 
Note the nat- 
ural even distribution of its branches—a five-year-old Honey Locust. 
Thornless Locust Gicditsia Thacan 
street and lawn planting it is one of the 
very choicest long-lived hardwood trees. 
Without pruning it will grow up to a beau- 
tiful shade tree, developing a_ splendid 
crown. It is a fast grower, second only to 
the Elms. Due to an unusually deep root 
system, grass or flowers can be grown with 
best success even close to this tree; it 
never makes sprouts or suckers from the 
roots. Entirely hardy, healthy and clean. 
Fancy trees, perfect straight stems, well 
rooted; the finest on the market.

Red Oak Quercus borealis. A very 
hardy oak, which succeeds 
in almost any soil, but in its natural state 
‘it appears near streams and on soil of rich 
moist loam. Under such conditions it grows 
to tremendous height, often well over 100 
feet.: ,Besides being an excellent timber 
tree, it also makes a grand ornamental and 
shade tree; the young twigs, shiny green, 
turning redish, and finally dark brown; 
the handsome dark green leaf coarse- 
toothed. To enlarge the selection of fine 
hardy trees, in public parks and large 
home-grounds, this Oak deserves to be in- 
cluded in the planting. Well shaped 6 to 8 
ft. trees, $2.50 each; $4.40 per pair. 8 to 10 
ft. trees, each, $3.25.

Gleditsia Tria- 
Common, Thorny canthos. A most 
valuable native tree with spreading branch- 
es, forming a large crown of very good and 
even shape. The leaves are small, coming 
in sprigs of 18 and more, always free from 
disease or insects. For a hardwood tree 
this is perhaps the most rapid grower, and 
is perfectly hardy everywhere. Has very 
prominent thorns. This Locust never 
makes sprouts from the roots. The Honey 
Locust should be planted more frequently. 
For easy, quick starting, vigorous growth, 
and special hardiness that comes only from 
an upland Nebraska nursery, our trees will 
please you.
