NEW Elim CG ace oee 
Undoubtedly the most beautiful Elm we have ever seen. It is 
a most practical all-purpose shade tree. Unlike the American 
Elm, it does not have large lateral limbs that are dangerous 
when overhanging the residence. It may be planted close to 
the house without worry. 


IT’S TOUGH—does not break in the wind and under the 
burden of ice and snow like the ordinary Chinese Elm. 
IT’S BEAUTIFUL—forms a compact tree, somewhat resem- 
bling the Hard Maple in form. (See illustration, front cover.) 
IT’S HARDY—Hke all Chinese Hlm, it is hardy and drought 
resistant. It is not subject to the Dutch Elm disease or Phloem 
neucrosis ‘which affects the American Elm. 
IT’S CLEAN—does: not shed leaves early and cause an un- 
sightly lawn—holds its leaves late into the fall. 
IT’S RAPID IN GROWTH—not quite so rapid as ordinary 
Chinese -Elm, however produces an abundance of deep green 
foliage affording a complete shade—a ‘“‘COOLSHADE’’—and a 
truly beautiful shade tree. 
WE SINCERELY RECOMMEND THIS AS THE BEST ELM 
WE HAVE EVER KNOWN. Grows 35 to 50 feet high.
