occidenialis. Also called But- 
tonwood. A rapid g owing tree of noble upright growing 
habit, and large bright green leaves. Its beauty of shape 
and foliage is further increased by the odd coloring of its 
bark, light green, smooth, and mottled dark green. Very

where gases and smoke show harmful effects on other trees.

Dwarf tree for formal plantings, as it keeps its strictly 
symmetrical form throughout its entire life. The umbrella 
crown develops on a straight 5 ft. stem. Spreads to about 
the same diameter. The large bight green leaves over- 
lapping ‘like shingles to form the evenly shaped crown. 
Since a number of years, this is the first time we have 
this nice tree again, and it is at the request of many of 
our customers who have known this tree, particularly in 
the old-fashioned garden, and want to plant it now on their 
lawns, along drive-ways, or in the center of their flower 
gardens. Good, straight 5 ft. trees. $3.00 each; 2 for $5.40.
