GROW CHESTNUTS 
WITH THE BLIGHT RESISTANT ORIENTAL 
VARIETIES 
Most peopie know that a terrible scourge (blight) has 
befallen our native Chestnut tree, but many do not know 
that the Oriental species are resistant to this blight. These 
foreign Chestnuts also bear when very young. We had 
nineteen burrs averaging three nuts each on a tree 40 inches 
tall. These trees are not as tall growing as was our American 
species, but grows more spreading, making a round top tree. 
There is very much interest in these foreign species and 
we are very fortunate in having a nice supply to offer this 
season.

FUMIGATING MATERIALS 
The materials we are offering for use by nurserymen and 
florists are ones that we are using and can recommend. 
These fumigating materials are used under supervision of 
the U.S.D.A. in treating nursery stock for shipment outside 
Japanese Beetle area as well as for many other controls. Ask 
your Federal Inspector or County Agent about use of them. 
LARVATOX WITH CHLORDANE 
A new material recently authorized by the U.S.D.A. that 
kills the Japanese beetle eggs as well as the grubs. Potted 
and Band B plants dipped in a solution of this material may 
be shipped the entire year providing soil and air tempera- 
tures are maintained at a minimum of 60%. Will have value 
as a soil fumigant. Use 3 CC’s to make 1 gallon of dip. 
Quart (makes 315 gallons of solution)......$2.50

Air Layering Plants 
You have often wanted to propagate some plants of a 
searee or high priced variety but did not have the proper 
facilities to do it with. With a new outfit we are offering, 
you can do it yourself, as easily as making an old-fashioned 
graft. You take a branch of the shrub or tree you wish to 
graft (leaving it on the parent plant), girdle the branch or 
twig, put damp peat moss or damp sphagnum moss around 
the girdled part and wrap it tightly with this new water- 
proof plastic (in sheets) and tie it, top and bottom, with 
rubber bands. Generally within six to eight weeks the twig 
is rooted ready to pot. It requires no watering or other 
attention until ready to pot. Complete outfit (enough plastic 
sheets and rubber bands to make 100 grafts) with complete 
instructions how to do the grafting, for $5.00 postpaid. 
RED LEAF JAPANESE BARBERRY 
(Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea) 
We have a very nice lot of Red Leaf Japanese Barberry 
in lining-out sizes. Last season did not have near enough 
to fill our orders for this but have a larger stock this season 
and will appreciate your orders for it.
