T20. Because of its extremely rapid growth, the Chinese Elm has 
become popular. Under ordinary conditions, it grows 5 feet a year. In 
just a few years, it makes excellent shade. It is very valuable for those 
sections of America where most other trees will not live or thrive, 
where it is hot and dry, even in alkali. It seems to thrive even in the 
poorest soil. But in those sections where Maples, Oaks and American 
EJm are grown, we advise planting the Chinese Elm only as a tem- 
porary tree for quick shade. There are hundreds of thousands of such 
homes, which would be more attractive and more comfortable if some 
of these quick-growing Chinese Elms were planted.
