Paragon — Is a superior varie- 

 ty of European Chestnut 

 which originated in Bucks 

 county, and has proved to 

 be perfectly hardy, enor- 

 mously productive and a 

 regular bearer. The nuts 

 are of very large size ; 40 of 

 them (selected) will make 

 one quart. Of handsome V' 

 appearance, excellent qual- 

 ity and ripens early, usuallp 

 before frost. We believe 

 that no better chestnut, all 

 points considered, has ever 

 been offered to the public 

 in this country ; and it has 

 been satisfactorily proved 

 that the culture of large 

 chestnuts is aprofitable in- 

 dustry.

WALNUTS. 



English Walnut, or Madeira Nut— A fine lofty-growing 

 tree, with a handsome, spreading head. It is a 

 profitable tree to plant, as it produces crops of ex- 

 cellent nuts. The fruit in a green state is very 

 highly esteemed for pickling, and the large quan- 

 tities of ripe nuts that are annually imported and 

 sold here prove the e>^timation in'which they are 

 held for thetable. This is called by some Persian 

 and French Walnut.

Japan Walnut — This species is found growing wild in. 

 ihe mouiitaiin of northern Japan, and is without 

 doubt as hardy as an oak. The leaves are of im- 

 mense size and of a charming shade of green. The 

 nuts, which are produced in extreme abundance, 

 grow in clusters, have a shell thicker than the Eng- 

 lish Walnut, but not as thick as the Black 

 Walnut, very much resembling pecan nuts. The 

 meat is sweet, of the very best quality. The trees 

 grow with great vigor, assuming a very handsome 

 form and need no pruning; mature early, bear 

 young, and are more resrular and productive than 

 the English Walnut. The species is of easy cul- 

 ture, reproducing itself perfectly by seed, and 

 grows with great vigor. Having an abundance of 

 fibrous roots it transplants as safely as an apple 

 tree. (See cut, page 10).
