_ CHINESE or SIBERIAN ELM. As a wood lot, shelter beit or 
grove tree and as a formal or natural hedge this tree has a 
very definite place in Northwestern planting. Drought re- 
sistant and rapid growing beyond almost any other sort. - 
The occasional winter damage explains why we have 
_ steadily refused to recommend this tree as a street or lawn 
tree. In spite of the winter injury, which has occurred only See 
once every 15 or 20 years, we still feel that this very fast Siberian Elm 
growing and drouth resistant tree possesses great value in 
-the Great Plains. Even if it has to be cut back to the ground it will recover in a year or so and 
produce more new growth than could be obtained in the same time by replanting with any other 
tree. Price, 3 to 4 ft., each, 20c; 5 for 90c; 4 to 6 ft., each, 60c; 6 to 8 ft., each 75c; 5 for $3.50.
