J. F. JONES NURSERIES, LANCASTER, PA. 
JONES HYBRID. This new strain of filbert combines the hardiness 
of the American hazel with the reliable fruiting quality of the European fil¬ 
bert. Nuts are as large as the largest European varieties we are growing. 
We are propagating bushes only of the best sorts. 
PARCEL POST shipments are packed light, yet well protected from 
drying out by re-inforced, air-tight paper, and small shipments up to 300 
miles can usually be sent cheaper in this way than by express. We cannot 
send larger than 2 to 3 ft. ftrees by parcel post unless we trim the 3 to 4 ft. 
size ready for planting. The postage on parcel post shipments is charged 
for when shipment is made where it is not sent with the order. All larger 
trees are sent railway express, motor express or freight according to the 
wish of the purchaser. 
THE ENGLISH WALNUT (juglans Regia) 
Our trees are budded or grafted on the 
native black walnut root stock. Trees propa¬ 
gated this way seem to ripen up their wood 
growth earlier in the fall and are thus 
hardier. While the English walnut can be 
grown with more or less success in the east¬ 
ern, middle and southern states our opinion is 
that its cultural range will follow that of 
the sweet cherry. Given good care the trees 
bear early.
