TWO IDEAL SHADE TREES 
FOR LAWN OR STREET PLANTING 
SENSATIONAL 
MORAINE LOCUST 
(Plant Pat. No. 836) 
Fast Growing Shade Tree 
It gives us great pleasure to offer this sensational, new 
| shade tree, because we believe the Moraine Locust so perfectly 
| fills the needs of today. For the many new homes which have 
| no shade trees whatever, it will provide good shade quicker 
| than any tree we know of, and is superior in many ways to 
Grows Anywhere — Long-Lived — Seedless 
The Moraine Locust is a hardy, drought-resistant tree 
that grows successfully on a wide range of soils. It will with- 
| stand the same extremes in temperatures as the common 
: Honey Locust and is as long-lived. Because the Moraine 
| Locust is sterile, there are no unsightly seed pods to clutter 
other fast growing trees, and it is easy to transplant. 
up the lawn, non-fruiting habit also makes for better foliage. 
Beneficial to Lawns 
The Moraine Locust forms a large, beautifully shaped 
head, similar in appearance to the American Elm. The fine- 
ly cut foliage allows enough light to filter through to pro- 
mote excellent growth of lawns, yet provides shade dense 
enough to discourage growth of crab grass. Whether your 
need is for good shade quickly, or to replace undesirable 
trees, we believe you will agree the Moraine Locust is the 
answer. Try a planting this spring. 5-6 ft., $6.00 each. 
| NORWAY MAPLE 
The Best All Around Shade Tree 
Recognized as the finest shade tree for generations. Rich 
indeed is the city whose inhabitants plant Norway Maple as 
a permanent street tree. 
Foliage Dense — Rich in Color 
Its dense leaves are a rich green color, and hold on the 
tree longer in the fall than most Maples, without much 
change in color. 
Good For Specimen Plantings 
A good tree for street or lawn specimen plantings, where 
good form and shade are needed. Reaches a height of 30-50 ft. 
Is resistant to storm, very clean in habit, and the leaves will 
withstand smoke, soot and attacks from insects.
