WALNUTS* 



How to know the Walnuts 



The Black Walnut and Butternut are easily culti- 

 vated, being grown readily by planting the nuts where 

 they are to remain. Seedlings can also be transplanted, 

 but care must be exercised, as they have a pronounced 

 tap-root. The Black Walnut makes a valuable forest 

 tree, and both species make good shade trees and are 

 also valuable for their nuts. 



* The true Walnuts. New England people use this name commonly for the 

 Hickories. (See Hickories.)
