SPECIAL 
In addition we are offering a new service which we call our 
custom service. At the present stage of nut growing there are so 
many named varieties many of which so little is known as to their 
relative merits, that it would bankrupt any nursery to try to 
propagate and carry all the named varieties. Yet there are many 
who desire to secure a tree or a few trees of some particular 
variety. Sometimes this may be a nut suited to a particular region 
or it may be an old favorite which someone wishes to perpetuate. 
If you want a tree or trees of some variety of hickory, blackwalnut, 
English walnut or Japanese walnut (Heartnut) we will endeavor 
to propagate it for you under the following conditions: 
You will have to order previous to April 1st, or better March 
1st of the season in which we are to grow the tree. 
A deposit of $5.00 must accompany the order. This deposit will 
pay for the first tree, if more than one tree is desired and we are 
able to produce more than one tree, the price of such additional 
trees will be at standard prices which will be $2.00 to $3.00 de¬ 
pending on kind and size of trees. 
If the variety desired be an unnamed variety or one which 
we cannot secure grafting wood of, you will have to send grafting 
wood. This should be one or two-year-old wood of good growth 
(vigorous tips of branches). This wood should be cut while still 
perfectly dormant and immediately wrapped in damp cloth or 
paper and then in waxed paper, then properly enclosed for mailing 
to us. 
We can secure wood of most named varieties but if we cannot 
secure wood or fail to successfully propagate a tree we will refund 
deposit in full. We cannot guarantee to produce a certain kind of 
tree at a certain time because nut tree grafting at best is rather 
difficult and uncertain.
