The freight will 
with a beautiful, healthy foliage; on this account it is being planted in 
larger numbers than ever before as a shade tree. In some localities (West¬ 
ern Kansas and elsewhere) it is one of the very few trees that survived 
the drought. I am pricing the trees low, so that all my customers can take 
' i N 
advantage of this wonderful tree. 
Russian Mulberry 
Very hardy; the tree stood 30 degrees below 
zero and bore a crop of berries the following 
season. Makes a large, spreading crown, fruit produced in enormous quan¬ 
tities, the berries range in color from black to white, and from sweet to 
quite tart. In many homes the berries are canned with Rhubarb or Goose¬ 
berries. Song-birds regard a Mulberry tree as a complete boarding house. 
No farm should be without Russian Mulberries. For post growing use the 
seedlings listed on page 17. Also for hedges.

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.

Black Walnut and especlally 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. 
I can supply seedlings of this tree (see 
page 17) and the following sizes of trans¬ 
planted, straight trees: 
Stuart Pecan 
By Express or Freight. 
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 if a L e s b a Very 
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. 
Hazelnut This is the old fashioned 
iiu<>ciuui 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. 
- PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS = 
Fill In loose soil all around the roots. The best soil you can possibly get for this purpose is soil from the surface that has been 
worked, and does not contain fresh fertilizer. Fill in until the hole is within a few inches from being level full. Then water. 
Apply several bucketfuls. This not only gives the tree the necessary moisture to start, it also settles the soil and packs it firmly 
around the roots much better than could be done by tramping. When the water Is all soaked away, and the soil settled, about 
an hour after watering, fill the holes level full with medium dry soil, and bank It up a few inches around the body of the tree. 
This soil takes the place of any mulch.
