the ’‘giants/* and has been bearing beyond the memory or the oldest inhabi¬ 
tants. The nut is one of the largest of the Indiana group and a real paper- 
shell of excellent quality. The original tree is a heavy and regular bearer. 
The Butterick combines large size, with a real paper-shell nut of high quality, 
and a rapid growing tree that bears very early, and is perhaps the best all 
round pecan of the Indiana group. 
GREEN RIVER. Originated in Henderson Co., Ky. The nut is medium size; 
6hell thin; kernel full and plump and of the best quality. 
INDIANA. From Knox Co., Ind. One of the largest of the Indiana pecans 
and one of the best. The nut is thin shelled, full meatcd and of very good 
quality. The tree is a very heavy bearer. One of the best pecans. 
MARQUARDT. Named and introduced by me. The Marquardt I consider 
a very remarkable pecan to have originated so far north. Coming from 20

varieties originated, the Marquardt should not only be hardy In tree but 
mature its fruit well in the Lake region or similar latitudes where the success 
of the Indiana sorts is questioanble. The nut is as large as the Indiana varie¬ 
ties; with a thin shell, and full kernel of excellent quality. If one has any 
doubts about the pecans of the Indiana group maturing their fruit with them 
this is the variety to plant. 
NIBLACK. Originated in Knox Co., Ind. Named for Hon. Mason J. Niblack, 
Vincennes, Ind. Nut medium to large; shell very thin; kernel full and plump 
and of the very best quality. Cracking quality the very best. One of the most 
desirable of the Indiana group and it is believed it will do well farther north 
chan any other of this group. 
POSEY. From Gibson Co., Ind. One of the largest and finest pecans of 
this group. The nut is very large and a real paper-shell. The cracking quality
