“LOCUST 
Plant Patent No. 836 
AMERICA’S GREAT NEW SHADE TREE 
Developed and introduced by Siebenthaler Company of 
Dayton, Ohio. The perfect answer to the demand for a 
clean, fast-growing, long-lived shade tree. 
The MORAINE LOCUST is a round headed tree when 
young but tall and vase-shaped when older. Mature trees 
attain a height of 80 to 100 feet with lower branches high 
enough to clear a two-story house. This feature permits 
planting the tree closer to the house than is the case 
with most other trees. Leaflets are small and in the fall they 
drift in between the grass blades on the lawn making very 
little raking or clean up. Very little pruning is needed as 
the lower limbs self prune as the tree grows. Tests show 
this new tree to grow more rapidly than either Silver Maple 
or Chinese Elm. It withstands drought and heat and cold. 
Thrives under adverse city conditions as well as on the 
plains where rainfall is slight. Excellent for either lawn 
or street planting. One of the best new tree introductions 
for American homes. 
NICE 5- to 6-Ft. BRANCHED TREES, $6.00 each;
