 Jor the English walnut, which is in reality the Persian walnut, 

 but he has gone west to Japan and China Jor the walnuts which grow

 California walnut. The nuts shoiim. in the color photograph 

 print above are variations Jound among the Japanese 

 branch oj the species and illustrate clearly the 

 changes in appearance as well as in other 

 characteristics which long continued en- 

 vironment ii'orks in plants.
