There is a rapidly growing interest in nut culture in the northern 

 states. Iowa has a wealth of valuable nut trees worthy of propagating. 

 Other regions have desirable nut varieties which should also be grown 



in the state. 



The following program has been arranged for the purpose of 

 presenting the latest information on varieties of nuts suitable for culti- 

 vation in Iowa, as well as the approved methods of propagating these 

 nut varieties. An effort has been made to secure the best available
