TAXODIUM distichum. The great lumber tree 
of the far South, but perfectly at home 
here. Will grow in dry or wet soil and blends 
well in either deciduous or evergreen plant- 
ings. The light green foliage is needle-like, 
the general shape of the tree resembles a ae é 
Spruce. Slow growing, but very symmetrical Tilia - Linden 
and as durable as an Oak; in fact, the lum- TILIA americana (American Linden). Some- 
ber is called the “wood eternal.’ Each times known as Basswood. This native tree 
is very attractive and will grow rapidly when

ULMUS americana (American Elm). A native 
tree, rapid in growth, with long spreading 
branches. The wood is tough and leaves 
moderate in size. The beetle that defoliates 
the European types, usually does not at- 
tack these. The Dutch Elm disease and 
phloem necrosis are a threat to this variety 
and we cannot strongly recommend it for 
new shade tree plantings.

5.00 tree that does especially well in difficult 
situations, like city soot and gases, dry and 
poor ground, narrow street plots, etc. Leaves 
smaller than our native Elm, habit more 
pendent, and of course, much more rapid. 
Only drawback possible is sleet damage and 
Elm beetle injury. Plant for twenty to thirty 
years’ duration. We have the North China 
strain only and it will make up as quickly 
as a Willow. Each
