J. F. JONES NURSERIES 
PLEAS. A pecan-bitternut hybrid. The tree is perfectly hardy. The 
nuts have the thinnest shell of any of the hickory hybrids. 
STANLEY SHELLBARK HICKORY. This is the big bottom shell- 
bark or king nut. Originated with Mr. Thos. T. Newby, Carthage, Ind. (or 
near him). The tree bears well and the large nuts crack better than any 
other of these so far tested. The kernel is full and of very good quality. 
LAMBERT PERSIMMON. This islajfhtive persimmon of good size. 
Those who have seen our trees here knoWit to be extra large for a native 
persimmon. Prices of trees 1 to 2 feet/raVl, $1.75; 2 to 3 feet, $2.00; 3 to 4 
feet, $2.25; 4 to 5 feet, $2.50; 5 to 6 feei, $2.75. 
EARLY GOLDEN PERSIMMON. is also a native variety of ex¬ 
cellent flavor. Not quite as large as thVLambert variety. Prices of trees 
the same as Lambert except we do not/lmve the five to six feet size in this 
variety. We do not have many of ^Kese' trees. Reserve your trees if you 
want to be sure of them. 
THE HEARTNUT, juglans cordiformis, from Japan. This variety is rare 
in this country for the reason that it is a “Sport” or extreme variation of 
the common Japan walnut, Juglans sieboldiana, according to Sargent, and 
almost invariably reverts to that type or species from seed. Owing to the 
extra cracking quality of the nut, the rapid and luxuriant growth, and early 
and prolific bearing of the tree, the Heartnut is one of our most valuable 
nut bearing trees. 
Those looking for a nut tree that will equal the poplars, maples and 
willows in extreme rapid growth should plant the Heartnut. Besides equal¬ 
ling these trees in extreme rapid growth, the Heartnut is far more valu¬ 
able as an ornamental. The tree has very large, almost tropical-looking 
foliage. The nut is heart shaped, smooth, brown in color and is of excellent 
quality, having a flavor closely resembling our butternut. The nuts are borne 
in clusters of from five to fifteen nuts. 
Terms and Guarantee 
REMITTANCES may be made in any way convenient. Personal checks 
from responsible parties accepted at par. Shipments sent f. o. b. here. 
NON-GUARANTY. We guarantee all trees sent out to be of the size 
and quality specified, but like most other firms we do not guarantee trees to 
grow. We take this stand for the following reasons: In the first place, 
many people who plant trees guaranteed to grow, habitually neglect the trees 
for this very reason and never get any where. In the second place the prices 
of the trees would have to be advanced to take care of the losses thus caused 
by careless planting and neglect, and this would not be fair to the man who 
plants and cares for his trees properly, since he would be helping to pay 
these unnecessary losses in which he had no part. We are very careful to 
see that all trees sent out are well grown, true to label and in condition to 
live and grow, but since we have no influence over conditions surrounding 
the trees or over their planting and care, after they pass out of our hands, 
we cannot assume responsibility for any customers losses resulting from 
failure to make the trees grow for any reason. Where customers receive 
trees from us that they feel are not up to our usual high standard, we will take 
it as a favor if they write us fully in the case and we will be glad to make 
good mistakes of any kind, but complaints or claims, to receive attention, must 
be made as soon as shipment has been received and inspected. Otherwise the 
transaction will be considered as closed.
