Improved Filberts 



(Hazel Nuts)

 actual 



Europe until now has alone enjoyed 

 a great nut delicacy — large, tasty Fil- 

 berts. The American wild Filbert has 

 lacked size, taste and food value. 

 Eight years ago, however, we im- 

 ported plants that bore abundantly, as 

 far North as Riga, Russia, and ob- 

 tained a European nut expert to begin 

 experiments here. Success has crowned 

 his efforts. We now offer you 



Hardy, Well-Developed Plants 



of the finest improved varieties. On the shore of Lake Ontario 

 with winter temperature fifteen to twenty degrees below zero, 

 they thrive and bear abundantly. 



Beauty and Profit 



Bushes make a very ornamental shrub with deep green and 



leathery foliage in summer and loaded with husks of delicious 



nuts, which ripen in September here. Plants bear second or third year after planting, 



and when 10 years old stand 6 to 8 feet high, and 

 should yield 20 to 25 pounds of nuts each. 



All plants offered grown on their own roots, are 2 to 4 feet 

 high, and will thrive in any moderately rich well drained soil 

 with very little cultivation. Be the first to grow large Filberts 

 — the European kind — on your grounds for real pleasure or in 

 orchard for good profit. Satisfaction comes either way. Send 

 for catalogue illustrated in colors with full details.

means prolific bearing, only one of the good 

 qualities of grafted trees which means Jones' Trees 

 usually, as most firms sell seedling trees only. 



You can have trees like this on your home 

 grounds. They require comparatively little 

 attention after planting and produce annual crops 

 of fine nuts in addition to shade. The pecan is 

 distinctive and no better or more beautiful lawn 

 tree can be found.
