Chinese CHESTNUTS 



Plant Them For Production of Luscious Nuts, Ornamental Shade 



or Commercial Orchard 



Early Bearing, Fast Growing, Blight Resistant Trees 



We highly recommend planting Chinese Chestnuts on hill sides, in pastures, on roadsides, in barnyards, in 

 and in areas where general farming operations fail because of topographical conditions for beauty, shade, 

 and delicious nuts. Blight resistant Chinese Chestnut trees will thrive on most any site which will support 

 other tree vegetation. 



Chinese Chestnuts are early to bear and give quick profits. Many growers are now receiving fifty to nine- 

 ty cents per pound for their nuts. Others with only a few trees are supplying their own needs with ease. You, 

 too, can enjoy them with a minimum of expense and care. Write for our Up-to-date cultural directions on 

 BLIGHT RESISTANT CHINESE CHESTNUTS. 



We are offering the finest types of hardy, blight resistant and high quality chestnuts our Government re- 

 presentatives could find in the great chestnut producing areas of China. 



SELECTED STRAINS YOU CAN TRUST. 



ALL TYPES HAVE BEEN FULLY 



TESTED. 



Because of the uncertainty of grafted trees, incom- 

 patibility of union, over or under growth at point of 

 grafting, etc., we have more and more been relying on 

 seedling selections of the better types such as Nanking. 

 Meiling. Killing, J.A.K., and other selected seedling, 

 made from seedlings of the above types. There is now 

 a minimum of variation in our selections and our whole 

 production of Chestnut trees is now derived from seed 

 selections as explained above. We believe they are the 

 best. We are sure you will like them.
