only the most choice ones, as follows:

Sugar Maple and American Elm. Large, dark green foliage; dense, spreading. Rather slow grower.

namental effect. More difficult to transplant than some shade trees and slower in becoming estab- 
lished. Reasonably fast growers and become more valuable with age. Write for quotations on
