Shade Trees Beautify Nhe Laun 
SHADE TREES SHIPPED EXPRESS OR TRUCK FREIGHT UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. 
A broad open space of well kept lawn is the first essential 
of good landscape design, the base against which all else 
is viewed. Yet it is incomplete without trees to shield the 
house from the direct heat of the sun, and for ornament. 
Without trees as a background so the topmost branches ex- 
tend above and break the roof lines, and a few toward the 
ends to frame the view, the house appears lost in space. 
Once established, nothing will increase in value and give 
such good results with so little attention as shade trees.

THE SENSATIONAL NEW 
Elm Coolshade 
Elm, Coolshade, in the Gardens at Sarcoxie. 
(Inset shows ordinary Chinese Elm.) 
Undoubtedly the most beautiful Elm we have ever seen. 
It is a most practical all-purpose shade tree. Unlike the 
American Elm, it does not have large lateral limbs that are 
dangerous when overhanging the residence. It may be plant- 
ed close to the house without worry. We sincerely recom- 
mend this as the best elm we have ever known. Grows 35 
to 50 feet high.
