PROGRESS: Medium size, fine flavor and strong grower. 
CHINESE HAIRY CHESTNUT: A large, sweet, blight resistant Chinese sort. 
CHESTNUTS FREE FROM FROSTS: Chestnuts do not bloom until May and June 
and are seldom if ever caught with frost. They are hardy and grow to be enormous 
trees. You will realize good markets and good prices for them. 
ADVANTAGE OF GRAFTED CHESTNUT TREES: The great trouble with our na¬ 
tive American sorts is that the pellicle or inner skin is enfolded in creases in the meat 
of the nut. This is not found in the above sorts of grafted hybrids. 
ITALIAN OR SPANISH SEEDLING CHESTNUTS: This type of chestnut does 
particularly well along this coast. At present many planters prefer this type of tree to 
the grafted sorts. The size of the nuts and bearing habits of this tree are quite uniform 
and bring excellent returns, and at good prices. They are exceptionally strong growers 
and make beautiful shade trees, with large dark green leaves. The nuts are large, 
sweet and excellent quality. Large crops are often produced on very young orchards. 
Plant several trees together for good pollenization. Note enclosed price list for prices 
on quantities. 
TALMONDS! 
Almonds are one of the most profltible nut crops on the Pacific Coast. They bear 
well in the Northwest as well as California when proper combinations are used to insure 
pollenization. Write us for full details. 
Two or more varieties of Almonds must be planted together, in the right combination, 
to secure successful pollenization. Good combinations are Nonpariel and Drake or Texas, 
Nonpariel and Ne Plus Ultra, Ne Plus Ultra and I. X. L. 
DRAKE: A good commercial nut because it bears uniform crops and adapts itself 
to all almond districts. Medium size, almost round, with a medium soft shell, plump and 
well filled. A good pollenizer for Nonpariel. 
NE PLUS ULTRA: A widely planted and popular almond, chiefly valuable bceause 
of its very attractive outside appearance and its generally large size. The nuts are 
large and long with a soft, corky shell. A good pollenizer for Nonpariel. 
NONPARIEL: Probably the most valuable commercially grown variety in California 
because of its excellence for shelling purposes and its habit of beatirig regular and uni¬ 
form crops. Medium size, soft shell, with plump, elongated kernels. 
I. X. L.: This variety brings the highest prices for nuts marketed in the shell be¬ 
cause of its clean, attractive appearance. Medium sized, elongated, soft shelled nuts. 
TEXAS: Now one of the most popular almonds commercially because of its ex¬ 
tremely heavy, consistent crops of small, soft-shelled, plump nuts, excellent for shelled 
kernels. A late bloomer and good pollenizer for Nonpariel and Drake. 
NOTE ENCLOSED PRICE LIST for prices on almonds. Special prices quoted on
