The MORAINE LOCUST is the shade tree that couldn’t be much 
better if it was ‘specifically bred for the needs of today. For the many 
new homes that have no shade whatsoever, the MORAINE LOCUST 
will provide shade quicker than any tree we know of. Yet, the 
MORAINE is a good tree—long-lived, drought resistant, and will 
grow on any soil. 
The MORAINE LOCUST is TODAY’S shade tree because of the 
following features: 
1, SEEDLESS. Unlike other locusts, the Moraine is sterile, thus 
there are no unsightly seed pods to clean up in the fall. Non- 
fruiting habit permits better foliage. 
GROWS ANYWHERE. Seems to produce good growth on any 
kind of soil, but responds favorably to extra feeding. 
3. LONG-LIVED. A common honey locust recently cut down in 
Ohio, proved to be 327 years old. There is every reason to 
believe that the MORAINE LOCUST, too, will be a long-lived 
tree.

fromuNewny ore touMinnecota and from CTS ec 8
