A TREATISE ON NUT CULTURE. 



Kaghazi is claimed to 

 be the hardiest of all soft 

 shelled Walnuts and 

 stands several degrees 

 below zero without in- 

 jury. It is a vigorous, 

 free grower and trans- 

 plants readily* very pro- 

 lific, producing nuts in 

 clusters and comes to 

 fruiting very young. It 

 puts out leaves and blos- 

 soms late in the Spring 

 and thus escapes late 

 frosts. The nut is larger 

 than the ordinary varie- 

 ties; the "kernel full, 

 plump, meaty; sweet, 

 rich in oils and of fine 

 flavor. The shell is thin.
