The above chart is given as a guide only to planters who do not wish to take the 
matter up directly with us. On large commercial plantings of either Barcelona, DuChilly 
or Brixnut we supply individual charts to suit the planter’s personal planting after be- 
iqg staked out. Write us for yours. For those wishing to set only one tree in their 
yard we offer top grafted sorts with two or more varieties grafted in to insure the small 
home owner of a bountiful yield. 
Distance for Planting 
Filbert trees should be planted 20 feet by 20 feet either the square or diagonal 
method. The square method requires about 108 trees to the acre. Add 15 per cent for 
the diagonal method. On heavy, rich bottom soil of exceptional fertility it might be 
well to plant 70 trees to the acre at 25 feet each way. DuChilly trees are sometimes 
set commercially at 16 feet each way, owing to their not attaining as large a size as 
the Barcelona or Brixnut trees. 
Prices of Nursery Stock 
Note our General Price List for prices on all varieties and sizes of filbert trees, 
or Special Price List contained separately in this catalog. 
It has been our most sincere aim to give only facts herein which would aid in 
clarifying the minds of those interested in planting a filbert orchard. Too often horti¬ 
culturists have left their students in a quandry as to what is best to plant and how to 
pollenize, to insure the very heaviest of production. 
We shall endeavor at all times to deliver to our customers only the finest, thrif¬ 
tiest and most vigorous of high quality filbert trees, grown on the best of fertile soil 
and having strong, healthy root systems. We also assure you that our prices on filbert 
trees are consistent with reliable and competent nurserymen and should we offer special 
values at any time will in no case sacrifice grade or quality. 
Dependability 
In the past 43 years we have been engaged continuousily in the growing and ship¬ 
ping of Highest Quality Nursery Stock, Fruit Trees, Nut Trees and Ornamentals to all 
sections of the country. Success in planting nut or fruit trees depends solely upon the 
selection of certified buds taken for propagation from trees with a record for bearing 
quality as well as quantity and to have these fruit or nut trees budded upon the proper 
root systems adaptable to various soil conditions. VVe accept this responsibility. 
Plant Grafted Vrooman Franquette Walnut Trees 
The culture of walnuts throughout the Pacific Northwest has reached such pro¬ 
portions that it bids fair to become one of the richest horticultural crops in this district. 
Having weathered the adversity of early experiments, in the way of planting, type of 
soils, varieties, and ways of marketing, we feel safe in stating that the commercial plant¬ 
ing of grafted walnuts throughout Oregon and Washington may well continue with 
safety, bearing in mind the essentials needed or used in the laying of a successful bus¬ 
iness enterprise of any kind. 
The mere fact that the consumption of walnuts throughout the U. S. is increasing 
annually and that we are consuming annually more than a pound to the person, should 
relieve the most skeptical persons of any thought of over-production for many years 
to come. About 60 per cent of all the walnuts now consumed in the U. S. are imported 
annually from France, China and Italy. The balance is being produced on the Pacific 
slope. 
ADAPTABILITY: Oregon and Washington have proven to be particularly suited to 
the production of high quality Grafted Franquette Walnuts. Favorable soil conditions in 
the Northwest, quality of nuts secured, low priced soils available for the planting of wal¬ 
nuts, and low taxation are but a few of the factors which will eventually make the North¬ 
west a leader in nut production. Co-operative marketing, proper distribution, and general 
advertising have already placed the Grafted Franquette foremost in its field. 
In the following paragraphs, we shall make an effort to establish the proper es-
