No. 11. Tree hazel, corylus colurna. Grown from seed from 

 Rochester parks. A very rapid grower and beautiful tree. Nut about 

 the size of the native hazel or possibly a little larger. 



No. 12. Weiker shagbark hickory. Planted 1915. Bore a few 

 nuts 1925. 



Test orchard east of house. Most of these trees planted 191'i as 

 seedlings to be grafted over, and grafted two to four years later. 

 Some had to be reworked one or more times, hence the trees var}' in 

 age. Some few trees, after being grafted several times unsuccess- 

 fully with scions from old trees, were cut out. We did not know as 

 much about grafting then as now, of course, but if one wanted a good 

 orchard of grafted trees the trees should be nursery grown and set 

 out rather than to try to grow them by planting seedlings. 



Nos. 13 & Ik Holden walnut, from Hilton, N. Y. A fine nut

 good nut.

 type. 



Nos. 23, 24 & 25. Hall walnut, from Erie Co., Pa. These were 

 set out as one year trees, 1914. A very large nut and prolific bearer, 

 but the nut is rough shelled and the kernel often not filling the shell. 



No. 26. Boston walnut, from Boston, Mass. Nut very thin 

 shelled and good, but has the fault of the nut varying greatly in size. 



Nos. 27 & 28. Weaver walnut, from Georgetown, Washington, 

 D. C. 



No. 29. A Pomeroy walnut topworked late, spring 1925, without 

 previous cutting back to control the sap. It is hardly practical to work
