Genuine Siberian Strain 
There are many 
fine, popular trees, 
but none are planted 
in so great a quantity 
as the Chinese Elms. 
They. are set out by 
the millions through- 
out the Mid-western 
and Western United 
States each year be- 
cause of their rapid 
growth and beauty, 
and because they will 
withstand climatic 
and soil conditions 
tapid growth and stately, colum- 
nar shape. They are very useful 
for large screen plantings, as 
borders along drive ways, and as 
gate. Also useful and decorative 
planted along the property line. 
They are cheap, grow easily, and 
are very hardy. The clean, dark 
gteen leaves are always attractive.

even alkali.

«No Trees Are More Valuable 
Than Nut Trees 
Nut trees provide food, 
shelter, shade and lumber. 
The Walnuts and Pecans 
are particularly good for 
shade, and the Walnut also 
is prized for its valuable 
wood. You probably will 
want to plant the Thomas 
Black Walnuts and Pecans

too valuable to share with

Chinese Elms are good trees for making quick shade. They 
cannot be beat for windbreak and shelter belt planting. At the 
same time, they can be used to make a good hedge, even one 
around your front yard. You can keep a hedge of them pruned 
down to 2Y4 to 3 feet high. You can shear them just as you do 
a Privet hedge, and they are just as beautiful, if not more so. 
All of Welch’s Chinese Elms are grown from seed gathered 
in South Dakota, and are guaranteed to be a rugged, hardy 
strain. There is none better.
