Another Value in Our Trees 
One of the most important factors in getting trees to 
bear young is the use in grafting of scions cut from bear¬ 
ing trees. We practice this as much as possible.

IT’S A FACT that all the young improved walnut 
groves in the country were sold out of nuts by Janu¬ 
ary 1st. Price $3.00 to $5.00 in the shell. Kernels, 50c to 
80c per lb. Not a bad price for the low cost of production.

Grafted Black Walnut 
Juglans Nigra 
Black Walnut Varieties 
In my extensive travels in the interest of “tree crops,” 
T find both commercial planters and “seekers of better 
new varieties” declaring the Thomas is the best nut yet 
with Stabler a close second. 
Thomas ,—originated at King of Prussia, near Phila¬ 
delphia, Pa. Tree a remarkable grower, very upright: 
nuts large and attractive, kernel light colored and of 
excellent mild flavor, cracks out in quarters. The leading 
commercial variety. 
Stabler ,—originated near Washington in Maryland. 
Growth more spready than the Thomas, is more ornamen¬ 
tal in foliage and not quite so rapid in growth ; nut small 
and oblong, very thin shelled, kernel light in color and 
richer than the Thomas in oil and flavor. For home crack¬ 
ing it is the best. 
Ohio ,—originated in N. E. Ohio. A rapid grower with 
handsome contour and foliage; nut medium in size, ob¬ 
long in shape, an early and heavy bearer, and although 
liked by many is not as good a cracker as the others. The 
most ornamental of the walnuts. 
The Commercial Tree of the North 
The Thomas, Stabler and Ohio thin-shelled grafted 
varieties. The commercial nut tree for the north and 
a good partner for the Pecan in the middle south and 
southwest. Write for quantity rates.

Larger Trees, Same Varieties for Quick Results 
So much has been said in the fruit world regarding 
planting small trees that many think the same applies 
to nut trees. In the fruit orchard where a low head is
