cylindrical, tapering slightly; shell thin, parting easily from the 
kernel; flavor delicate, quality excellent; tree tbiifty and pro- 
ductive. 
Schley — This variety is becoming recognized in the southern states 
as one KiT-ing considerable promise and although its adaptability 
to California conditions has not been tested to any extent, we 
have every reason to believe it will find conditions here equally 
as congenial for its best development. Tree bears hea\'ily; the 
nuts are medium; shell is thin; (cernel fuH and plump and invar- 
iably fills well. Nuts are said to sell for higher figures than any 
other variety in the eastern markets.

profitable pecan; large size, desirable in shape and fine in appear- 
ance; always well filled, meat of good flavor.

size, cylindrical and tapering at the apex; shell very thin and 
parting freelv from the kernel, which is full, plump and of the 
best quality. Iree \'igorous and thrifty and a regular and 
abundant cropper. 
G&AFTED WALNUTS 
All our grafted walnuts arc worked on stocks (seedlings) that 
have been transplanted and root pruned when one year old. Thin 
treatment gives our trees very heavy branched roots. Such trees 
should not be compared with grafted trees on seedlings that have 
not been transplanted

These named sorts of Seedling Walnuts are grown from selected 
second generation seed from oiu- original graft^'d trees that John 
Rock imported from France about 1880. Most of the trees grown 
from these nuts bear fruit true to type. These trees are sold for 
very much less than the grafted trees.

shape, with a kernel of extra fine quality. Tree very productive, 
developing its leaves and bloora late in the spring. One of the 
best with us.

nuts medium size; elongated; exceptionally heavy, as the kernel 
completely fills the shell. Tree is a good bearer and beautiful as 
an ornamental tree.

or less variation in the shape of the nuts, the quality is in the 
kernels.
