Orr trees are j^rowii under nortlierii conditions. 1 ^ 3 ’ tliis method 
we .secure trees tliat are more vigorous and which adapt themselves to 
a wi<le range of soil an<l climate. They ripen their wo(td earlier in the 
fall, are able to stand very low temi)eraturcs without injury. They may 
he denended ui)on to be hardy and prolific. We are convinced that to 
avoid disa])pointment. medium-sized trees must be planted. Acclimated 
trees co.'^t more, it is true, but they arc trul}' economical in the long run. 
'rransi)lanting may he done with eciual success in si)ring or fall. In 
planting, the tap-root should be severely t>runed to promote the growth 
of numerous fdirous roots as well as laterals. The trees should be 
mule! ed liberally with coarse stable manure as soon as planted. 
.\ well-known scientist gives expression to the following: “When 
you jilant another tree, why not plant a W’alnut? Then, besides senti¬ 
ment shade, and leaves, you may liave a perennial suj)])!)' of nuts of the 
imjirfjved kinds, that furnish the most delicious, nutritious and healthful 
food which has ever been known. The old-fashioned hit-or-miss 
nuts which we used to i>urchase at the grocery store were generally of 
a rich, irregular mixture in form, size and color, with meats of varying 
degrees of utisoundncss — bitter, rancid, musty, or with no meat at all. 
b'rom these earl 3 ' memories and the usual accomi)anying after effects, 
nuts have not been very i)opular until lately, when gor)d ones at moderate 
])rice'i can generally, but not always, be purchased.
