 CHESTNUT PLANTING 



< ® This beautiful and profitable chestnut 



orchard is only 4 years old, can be expected to 

 produce an average of 3500 pounds per acre 

 at maturity, at 55 cents per lb, this is not bad. 

 NO SPRAYING NECESSARY 



TREES FINE FOR SHADE TOO! 



Something f/ew for the 

 Younger Generation 



It gives us great pleasure to announce that 

 once again it is possible to harvest "your 

 own chestnuts" in the Fall. By planting 

 Townsend's Blight-Resistant trees. 



Write for Free Nut Culture 



A Townsend , Chinese Chestnut Tree Producing 

 ^4 lbs. Nuts — Same Season Planted 



ANY WELL DRAINED SOIL WILL DO! 



# The sight of these trees once again flourishing 

 cannot fail but to evoke many memories from the 

 older element, whereas they will be something en- 

 tirely new for the younger people. Of course the 

 pleasure of roaming the woods at Autumn and gath- 

 ering these tasty nuts is probably gone forever, but 

 this fact does not prevent either commercial or 

 home growers from realizing their own crops.
