J. T. LOVETT, INC., LITTLE SILVER, N. J.—FRUIT TREES— NUT TREES 23 



DWARF PEARS 



Plant 10 feet apart each way. 



Like Dwarf Apples, these are especially useful 

 in gardens of limited dimensions. As a rule, 

 they are more valuable and more satisfactory 

 than Dwarf Apples. I have them in the rnost 

 popular varieties only, such ar Angouleme, Anjou, 

 Bartlett, Clapp's Favorite, etc. 



FIRST CLASS, 4 to 5 feet, Vs inch caliper, 

 each, 60c.; dozen, $6.00; 100, $30.00. 



QUINCES 



Plant 20 feet apart each way. 

 FIRST CLASS, 4 to 5 feet, H to K inch 

 caliper, each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50; 100, $35.00. 



' CHAMPION.— Late. Greenish yellow, large, 

 strong grower.^,, 



ORANGE (Apple).— Early. Deep yellow, 

 large, prohfic, rehable and popular. 



HARDY NUT TREES 



These must be shipped by express or freight, as they are too large for mailing. 



Prices by the hundred of any variety promptly given by mail upon request. 



The Northern Nut Growers' Association has adopted the following resolution: 



"Nut trees may and do come fairly true to type, but they do not come true to variety. 

 Consequently our association does not approve of the sale of seedling trees under variety 

 names." 



HARDY NORTHERN PECANS 



INDIANA. — For more than a quarter of a century we tried to grow Pecans in New Jersey, 

 but without success; for after a few years the trees would be so badly injured by winter-kill 

 that we were obliged to take them out. The trouble was due to the fact that we planted the 

 Southern varieties, and to this only. It is with much satisfaction we are able to state, anyone 

 can now grow Pecans successfully in New Jersey, and all locations where the Peach is hardy, 

 wath the same ea^e as apples or pears are grown. In fact, with less care, as they need no spray- 

 ing and almost no attention after the trees have become established. All that is necessary is 

 to plant trees of the variety know^n as "Indiana" or other hardy varieties that originated in the 

 northern section of the middle west. The nuts are of good size (see illustration), have thin 

 shells and large, plump kernels of the very highest quality. The trees bear young, in three 

 to four years from planting, are beautiful as ornamental trees, yield abundantly, are abso- 

 lutely hardy and are very long-lived. 



Grown from buds taken from the original tree of Indiana, 3 to 4 feet, each, $1.50; 4 to 5 

 feet, each, $2.00. 



NIBLACK. — The nuts of this are slightly smaller in size than those of the Indiana, but 

 they have a very thin shell and the cracking properties are ideal. The tree is of lofty propor- 

 tions and extremelv prolific. Grafted trees, 3 to 4 feet, each, $2.00. 



HARDY NORTHERN SEEDLINGS.— These were grown from selected nuts of hardy 

 northern varieties, but have not been grafted. They wall thrive and produce nuts at the North, 

 but there is no wav of knowing, until they bear, what the nuts will be like. Three to 4 feet, 

 50c.; 5 to 6 feet, 75c. each. 



BLACK WALNUT 



THOMAS.— A variety of the well-known 

 Black Walnut that yields abundantly of very 

 large, almost round nuts. The introducer says:: 

 "The Thomas is by far the finest Black Walnut 

 that I have been able to find, and will please 

 anyone wanting the best. The tree will su<:ceed 

 \yith little or no attention in almost any situa- 

 tion. The grafted trees bear very early and very 

 abundantly. The nut is very large; the meat is 

 plump, white and of excellent quality; the shell 

 is thin and the cracking quality excellent." 

 Grafted, 3 to 4 feet, each. $1.00; 4 to 6 feet, $1.35. 



SEEDLINGS. — These were grown from se- 

 lected nuts of the Black Walnut, but cannot be 

 relied upon to produce nuts equal to those 

 planted. Three to 4 feet, each, 35c.; dozen. $3.50. 



Six to 8 feet, each, 50c. ; dozen, $5.00. THOMAS WALNUT
