STUART PECAN NUT 
BUTTERNUT, WHITE WALNUT 
Stuart Pecan 
Hardier than the 
Common Pecan, and 
can be grown as far north as southern 
half of Missouri, southern Illinois and 
Indiana. The nuts are large (note pic¬ 
ture at the left), thin shelled, the quality 
of which is very good. Plant them for 
home use and market. 18-24 inch grafted 
trees, 90c each, prepaid. 
Japanese Walnut liakls^aVmy 
pretty tree which bears young and abun¬ 
dantly. It is hardy along the east coast 
states, and from there west through 
southern Illinois, Indiana, southern Mis¬ 
souri and Kansas. There are some Jap¬ 
anese Walnuts growing in Nebraska, but 
they are not sufficiently hardy to be 
profitable in this state. The nuts come 
in clusters, they are heart shaped, easy 
to open, contain a nut meat of high qual¬ 
ity. For the localities recommended this 
tree will be most satisfactory and should 
be planted much more freely. 2-3 ft. nice 
trees, 75c each; 3 for $2.00; prepaid. 
Butternut, White Walnut o"f 
the finest native trees, and often planted 
for a shade tree. Hardy as far north as 
South Dakota. The nuts are large, long 
(note picture at the left), quality good. 
12 to 18-inch seedlings, 3 for 40c; 10 for 
$1.00; 25 for $1.50; 100 for $4.00; prepaid. 
American Sweet Chestnut 
Does best in medium light, partly sandy 
soil, no pruning required, and little or no 
cultivation. Makes a very pretty tree, 
and also produces nuts of fair quality. I 
consider it hardy as far north as the. 
southern part of Nebraska, farther north 
the tree will be hardy but will not pro¬ 
duce fruit. For a number of years I have 
not listed this tree. I am doing so this 
year on the request of many of my cus¬ 
tomers. I have very nice trees in stock. 
2 to 3 ft. size, 40c each; 3 for $1.00; 
prepaid. 
SWEET CHESTNUT 
Wfmalniit This is the old fashioned 
**'*“''***^‘ hardy type producing nuts 
of medium size. An upright growing 
bush, very useful for hedges or screens, 
or to make up the lower growth of the 
windbreak. Sometimes included in orna¬ 
mental plantings for tall growth. 2-3 ft. 
nice shrubs, 40c each; 3 for $1.10; 10 for 
$3.00; prepaid. 
Black Walnut 
Makes a large tree, 
and especially on 
bottom land a fast grower. Besides being 
a very good shade and ornamental tree 
the Black Walnut is the most valuable 
native tree for its wood. The nuts are 
hard shelled, but the meat is very tasty.

ered just a few inches. Step on the soil to pack it. 10 cut¬

Humulus Lupus. The root of this plant is 
XAVjp V lllc hardy, makes new vines every year which are 
of extra strong growth, and can be used for trellis or fence 
coveis. The blossoms, golden yellow in color, come in panicles 
about 6 inches long, much like straw flowers, and are often used 
in dry winter bouquets. This is the variety from which the 
hop flavor is extracted for brewery work. It is also in good 
demand for a nice stiong growing vine of ornamental value. 
35c each; 3 for 90c; postpaid. 
Dried Leaves of Herbs. See page 51. 
Holt's Mammoth Soap variety of sage has 
null & iviummoin oage developed especially for 
seasoning. It possesses an excellent sage flavor. The plant 
is a good, strong grower, and with a little covering over wunter 
it remains hardy for years. The leaves should be picked just 
befoie the plant blooms, at that time they are in the prime for 
flavor, and if dried in the shade will keep the seasoning qualities 
for a long time. Store in air tight containers, preferably glass 
jars when the leaves are perfectly dry. 25c each; 3 for 50c; 
postpaid. 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Plant nut trees following the planting instructions as given under fruit trees. Mint and the Sage are planted just like Peren¬ 
nials, and are covered over winter by first placing brush over the plants and putting leaves, straw or tomato tops over the 
brush. The latter keeps an air space between the plants and the cover. Hop vines freeze back to the ground every winter, and 
the roots being hardy will make an entirely new growth every year which reaches full size in one season, and blooms towards 
late summer. With all herb-seeds sowing instructions are on the packet. Make your garden more interesting, more complete, 
by adding a variety of herbs. You will appreciate them, many of the herb varieties are really the secret of tastier meals.
