SHADE TREES 
BASSWOOD is one of the faster 
growing of the better native trees. 
It makes a smooth outline and 
is generally quite a dressy tree. 
8-10 ft. $3.50. 
BIRCH, CUT LEAF WEEPING, is 
probably familiar to everyone, 
and is certainly one of the most 
beautiful trees. 6-8 ft. $5.50 
BIRCH, WHITE, is often used in 
clumps of two or three. 5-6 ft., 
$1.75; 6-8 ft., $2.25; 8-10 ft., $3.00. 
ELM, AMERICAN, is planted more 
than any other kind of shade 
tree in this region, and is deserv- 
ing of such popularity. 6-8 ft., 
$1.50; 8-10 ft., $2.60: 114-2 in. 
cal., $5.00; 2-214 in. cal., $6.25. 
ELM, LAKE CITY, is a grafted se- 
lection of American Elm, which 
is quite upright in habit of 
growth. Where two or more Elms 
just alike are wanted, this is the 
one to use. Prices same as for 
American Elm. 
HACKBERRY should not need de- 
scription, but it is used less than 
it merits. It is an excellent street 
and shade tree, makes fairly rap- 
id growth, makes a nice shape 
and produces especially strong 
crotches. 6-8 ft., $2.00; 114-2 in. 
cal., $5.00. 
MAPLE, NORWAY It would be 
hard to over-rate this tree. It is 
a thick foliaged, dome-shaped 
tree, with dark green leaves 
which hang on fully two weeks 
longer than with Hard Maple. 
8-10 ft., $4.50. 
MAPLE, SCHWEDLERI is well 
known for its bright red-purple 
spring and early summer foliage 
color. 6-7 ft. whips, $3.00. 
MAPLE, CRIMSON KING (Plant 
Patent 735) is another selection of 
Norway Maple (as is Schwedleri 
also) having the bright red-purple 
foliage color, but is different in 
that it RETAINS that BRIGHT 
COLOR ALL SUMMER LONG. 
It is brand new. 6-8 ft. whips, 
$5.00. 
MAPLE, HARD, is the common na- 
tive Maple which colors so bril- 
liantly in the fall. 6-8 ft., $3.25. 
POPLAR, BOLLEANA, is the tall, 
slender growing spire-like tree 
with bluish bark, and dark green 
foliage with the silvery underside. 
5-6 ft., $1.50; 6-8 ft., $2.00; 8-10 ft., 
$2.50. 
POPLAR, LOMBARDY, is the other 
spire-like Poplar having plain 
green foliage. 6-8 ft., $1.50; 8-10 
ft., $1.75. 
WILLOW, NIOBE WEEPING, is the 
common golden barked weeping 
willow. This tree is most effec- 
tively used close to water. As a 
lawn tree it is not as clean as 
most others and the pendulous 
branches make it impractical to 
try to grow grass beneath it. 6-8 
ft., $2.75; 8-10 ft., $4.00.
