spot of color when used with other trees 
or when planted alone as a specimen.

The Oldest Known Tree

that is mentioned in the ancient writ- 
ings of Confucius. Beautiful, finely cut 
foliage and erect, graceful habit of 
growth make it desirable. A mature 
specimen is almost priceless. Perfectly 
hardy anywhere. Drops all of its leaves 
within a few hours after the first one 
drops in the fall. 3- to 5-ft. trees, 
$2.50 each; 2 for $4.50.

Rapid grower and at a distance the mature trees

lighter shade on the under side. The roots of the 
Lombardy Poplar will not grow into and clog 
sewers, etc., as did the old Carolina Poplar.
