 duce excellent crops of large nuts, when only 

 a few years old. The trees are vigorous and

GRAFTED STUART PECAN 



Pecans are native to Illinois and will grow very well 

 in areas where winter weather reaches well below zero. 

 North of the Mason-Dixon line nut production is irregular 

 but the trees are highly prized for their shade and orna- 

 mental value. They are tall-growing and have graceful, 

 spreading branches that are very beautiful. In all of the 

 southeastern area these grafted Stuart trees are depend- 

 able producers of big, thin-shelled nuts having high quality 

 kernels. Plant two or more trees for cross pollination. 



$3.85 each; 3 for $9.90 



/ THOMAS BLACK WALNUT (Grafted) 



This is the finest of the improved black walnuts for it 

 produces heavy crops of large meaty nuts that are much 

 easier to crack than most black walnuts. The trees are 

 vigorous and will make rapid growth in deep, well-drained 

 soil. Thomas requires a growing season of about 150 days 

 to mature its nuts and thus will give good results to about 

 central New York state. These grafted trees are the best 

 obtainable. Use another variety of black walnut for cross- 

 pollination. 



$3.85 each; 3 for $9.90. Parcel Post Rates on Page 19.

 large, thin-shelled, meaty nuts. The trees are very vigorous and have a nice spreading shape 

 which is ideal for shade. Plant 2 or more trees for cross-pollination. These are vigorous, well- 

 rooted, seedling trees. 2-3 ft. size, $3.65 each, 3 for $9.75.
