A good shade tree not only furnishes shade, but often affords bloom, fruit, 
Autumn coloring, and serves as a screen or background for other plantings. The 
following selection of varieties has been made up with those qualities in mind. 
We, however, are listing separately under ‘‘Flowering Trees,’”’ a group of trees 
planted especially for ornamental effect. Both groups are planted for shade. 
ASH, American White (Fraxinus americana). Good growers, spreading and 
giving excellent shade yet not so dense as to destroy the grass beneath the branches 
Suitable for street and campuses, as well as on lawns where space permits. 6-8 ft., 
$2.50 each, $27.00 per doz.; 8-10 ft. $3.50 each, $39.00 per doz.; 10-12 ft. $4.50 
each, $51.00 per doz; 2-21 in. caliper $8.00 each; 214-3 in. caliper, $12:00 each. 
BEECH, American (Fagus americana). This famous tree is denied more extensive 
use because of its being difficult to transplant. So we offer only balled and bur- 
lapped trees. 4-5 ft. B&B, $8.00 each; 5-6 ft. B&B, $12.00 each.

CHINESE ELM (2s Puméla) 
A comparatively new type of Elm in this country. However, it has been used for 
ornamental purposes for hundreds of years in China, having been imported from 
Siberia. Resembles American Elm, but is more compact, has finer branches, less spread, 
and does not grow to be as large a tree. Suitable for streets, on home grounds, and 
other places where a fast growing, medium size tree is desired. Sends its roots deep 
into the soil, interfering very little with the grass. One of the fastest growers of all shade 
trees; also one of the first to come out in leaf in the Spring and the last to lose its 
foliage in the Fall.
