NORWAY POPLAR. The fastest growing 
and develops into the largest tree of all we 
have. We have had trees that grew as much 
as 714 feet in a season. Throughout this 
section often spoken of as the “sudden 
saw log.” 
3 to 4 ft., 10 for $2.00 
5 to 6 ft., 75c; 10 for $5.00 
MOLINE ELM. Here is the finest thing of 
anything that so far has been developed 
out of the American White Elm. The tree 
is narrow and upright in growth just as the 
illustration shows. We have a wonderful 
City Library Building in Faribault and all 
the boulevard trees are Moline Elm now 
40 feet high. A wonderful sight. 
Straight 4- to 5-ft. trees, $1.50; 
5 for $6.25 
Norway Poplar Moline Elm 

MOUNTAIN ASH, European. A fine ornamental tree for 
the lawn. Almost without pruning, it forms a magnificent, 
fairly dense, well-shaped head, covered from midsummer 
until midwinter with large clusters of beautiful scarlet 
berries—a brilliant color for the landscape. 
Select 5- to 6-ft. trees, $1.75; 6 to 8 ft., $2.00 6- to 8-ft. trees, $1.50 
KENTUCKY COFFEE TREE. A tall, fast-growing, round-topped tree, native this 
far north and perfectly hardy. Foliage is 2 to 3 ft. long and of great grace 
and beauty. Greenish white flowers in long panicles come on the end of the 
current year’s growth. Develops into a very beautiful ornamental tree. 
MANCHURIAN APRICOT. Here is a new tree that is a real find. Prof. Hansen 
of the South Dakota Agricultural College, brought to South Dakota from 
northern Manchuria, seed of the native Apricot of that cold country. The 
resulting trees did well in South Dakota, blossomed and bore fruit! Some 
fruit was good and some indifferent but as an ornamental the tree is fine. It is 
perfectly hardy here and blooms the first of all trees. The blooms are pink 
and the tree is literally a pink mass of bloom a full week before any other tree 
is in bloom. 3- to 4-ft. trees, $2.00 

Mountain Ash 

LOMBARDY POPLAR. A narrow, upright growing tree, much used to plant in 
corners about buildings or to use as a sentinel or accent tree in ornamental 
plantings. Best tree for this purpose.
