HARDY NORTHERN NUT TREES 
The black walnut will grow on practically all 
soils which are adapted to fruit trees and is very 
productive if given only a normal amount of care. 
The trees are relatively free from diseases and in¬ 
sect pests and require no special knowledge or ex¬ 
pense to properly care for them. 
The varieties listed in this leaflet have been se¬ 
lected because of their hardiness, rapidity of 
growth, productiveness, thinness of shell, quality 
of kernel, and the ease with which the kernels may 
be extracted. 
Each tree, prior to shipment, is carefully wax¬ 
ed, using the method prescribed by Prof. Jas. A. 
Neilson, of Michigan State College. The wax treat¬ 
ment prevents the tree from drying out and greatly 
reduces losses in transplanting. Planting instruc¬ 
tions are furnished with each order. 
TERMS 
All orders must be accompanied with a 20% de¬ 
posit, the balance due when the stock is shipped. 
The extra cost of preparing export orders will be 
chargeable to the purchaser, except when the or¬ 
der is sufficiently large to justify us in assuming 
this charge. We guarantee all trees to be healthy 
vigorous stock when dug and delivered for ship¬ 
ment; and correctly labeled. We will not be liable 
for any claims other than those for which we are 
responsible. We shall be glad to receive any rea¬ 
sonable complaint, but these complaints must be 
submitted shortly after the shipment has been re¬ 
ceived . 
The varieties we have listed have proven to be 
the best on the market at this time. If you are 
doubtful as to their value, we suggest that you write 
to your state horticulturist and inquire as to their 
merits.
