WESTERN VARIETIES 
WESTERN SCHLEY: Very much like 
Eastern Schley, but much more prolific 
and suited to dryer climates and higher 
altitudes. The tree is healthy, prolific 
and regular in bearing. Becoming more 
popular each year. Puts out late in 
spring, ripens early in fall. 
JOHN GARNER: (See inside front 
cover.) 
ON LI WON: (Only One). This variety 
has paid Mr. Risien better than all others 
after 40 years’ trial. Fine yellow meats 
come out whole. Ripe in midseason; 60% 
meat, shell very thin. 
SAN SABA IMPROVED: This nut 
looks good and tastes good'. Smooth, firm 
kernels, light colored meat and shell and 
the meats release readily. Ripens early. 
I keep these nuts for my own use. 
SQ. DELIGHT: The chief merit of this 
variety is in its earliness of ripening, 
making it popular in sections having 
short growing seasons. Very popular in 
Oklahoma. The nut is long like Schley. 
JERSEY: This little, oblong egg-shell 
variety runs 64% meat (highest on rec¬ 
ord) and is especially suited to drouthy 
sections. The quality of the nut is extra 
good and the tree is very prolific. 
COMMONWEALTH: This is the latest 
variety to put on leaves and bloom of 
any variety in our orchard. This is a 
much better nut than Sq. Delight and 
should be tried out alongside of it. 
Long like Schley. 
TEXAS PROLIFIC: As the name im¬ 
plies, this variety is very prolific, fre¬ 
quently producing nuts in the nursery 
row. A long nut with medium shell and 
beautiful markings. 
BURKETT: Originated by J. H. Bur¬ 
kett of Clyde, Texas. One of the best 
varieties for West Texas. People in that 
section are setting more of the Burkett 
than of any other variety. Medium size, 
^lls well, good flavor and prolific. 60% 
meat. 
HALBERT: Young trees inclined to 
be crooked, but get straighter as the tree 
grows older. Very early and prolific 
bearer. Medium size nuts, very thin 
shell, excellent flavor. A good tree for 
black waxy land. Should not be set in 
Mississippi, Louisiana, East Texas or 
East Oklahoma. 57%? meat.
