Augustine Ascending Elms 
Here is what a city park forester recently wrote concerning 
the 800 Augustine Ascending Elms planted in his city: ‘’All in all 
| can say that this is a very satisfactory tree for street and boule- 
vard planting and | am planning on using more of them this fall 
where block planting is required.”’ 
There are about 50,000 individuals of this new elm popu- 
lation now growing in more than 200 wide-spread communities. 
Why this popularity? The answer lies in the tree’s health and 
economy 
(neat, vertical, rising lines * perfect reproduction * un- 
usually rapid growth * no storm damage ° healthy 
resistance to tree plagues * grass grows around base 
* neat and strong root habits * no traffic obstruction) 
and its usefulness 
(enclosure and boundary rows * highway and avenue 
* city parkways * landscaping * cemeteries * country 
clubs * campus, institution and factory grounds). 
The Augustine Ascending Elm is guaranteed. This Associa- 
tion has every reason to believe that the new tree it offers has 
strong resistance to elm disease. Tests conducted by scientists lead 
to this conviction. The experience of thousands of satisfied people 
who have planted these trees and reported on their progress is 
further support. Every Augustine Ascending Elm already owned 
or henceforth purchased which dies within five years through the 
agency of any virus or fungus will be replaced by another tree. 
This guarantee covers Augustine Ascending Elms planted to re- 
place other elms which have died from any cause. 
The picture below is typical of young, healthy elms for lining 
out first offered this fall. Each is produced by careful grafting 
from controlled wood. Tags guaranteeing their genuineness and 
identity accompany each shipment. Plant a good number of these 
remarkable elms and the roots will start growing even during win- 
ter to support the rich foliage they will put out next spring. In 
record time you will have beautiful, strong trees like that shown 
to the right. Write today for a quotation on 50 or more trees for 
growing on. You will realize an unusual saving.
