There are many fine seedling wal- 

 nut trees in the Dundee orchards of 

 Trunk, Dearborn and Prince. Also in 

 the extensive orchards of the Matt- 

 hews Planting company in Yamhill 

 county. Mr. McDonald reports a very 

 fine seedling at Oregon City, Mrs. 

 Chas. T. Kamm has a very fine May- 

 ette seedling; Senator McNary has a 

 very fine prolific seedling at his home 

 in Salem. One of the best is reported 

 from W. B. Andrews at Eugene. I 

 have two seedlings of promise, but 

 have not had sufficient time to recom- 

 mend them. The best one is a seed- 

 ling from the Prince. It misses the 

 frost, both in the Spring and Fall, and 

 is of high quality, but does not pro- 

 duce as well as the other, which is 

 wonderfully prolific, but the kernel is 

 dark at the point. There are many 

 other seedlings of promise, but it will 

 take time to determine their worth.
