Make your shade trees pay you a reward in bushels 
of large delicious nuts. 
ENGLISH OR PERSIAN WALNUTS 
After years of experience, careful investigation, thorough testing 
under all conditions, in all climates, we have developed two varieties 
of English walnuts that will grow and produce the finest of nuts, in 
every section of the United States. We can without hesitation, recom¬ 
mend both the Franquette and Mayette varieties for the North, East, 
South and West, regardless of how cold your winters are. There are no 
trees in cultivation that pay larger profits or are as well assured of a 
profitable market for their products. For ornamental shade trees for 
lawn or park, there are none with more grace, beauty or attractiveness.

ing tree, with handsome, spreading 
head; produces large crops of thin 
shelled, delicious nuts which are al¬

ing. Every home garden, and every

Wagner’s Hybrid 
WAGNER’S HYBRID BLACK WALNUT—The most rapid grow¬ 
ing hardwood tree known. One of the most beautiful lawn or shade 
trees, dense, symmetrical, dark green attractive foliage, which 
turns to a flaming coppery red after frost. The chief value of 
this rapid growing tree, however, is the extra large thin shell 
nuts it begins to produce about the third year from planting, 
these immense nuts have full kernels, which may be easily taken 
out in halves. The kernels are plump, crisp and have a wonder¬ 
ful flavor. Trees extremely hardy and may be very success¬ 
fully grown in any section of the United States. Trees can be 
propagated only from its nuts. Specimen trees have grown to 
be 20 feet tall in seven years from the seed. The wood from 
this tree takes a fine polish, superior to any timber. There is 
a fortune in growing this tree for timber. For the finest shade 
tree, that will produce large delicious nuts plant Wagner’s Hy¬
