A Sixteen Year Old Paradox 



At sixteen years of age, Mr. Burbank's new Paradox 



walnut trees were sixty feet in height and as much in breadth 



of branches the trunk being two Jeet in diameter at about four feet 



from the ground. Meantime English ivalnuts on the opposite 



side of the street averaged only eight or nine inches 



in diameter at thirty-two years of age, and 



had a spread of branches only about 



one quarter that of the 



youthful Paradox.
