We recommend the Chinese chestnut to take the place of the dear, 
old American. For beauty, it’sa dandy. Asa profitable orchard tree 
—one orchard man in Pa. got an order of 1,000 Ibs. at 50¢ per lb. 

This man believes in ‘‘going forth and replenishing the earth.” His 
grove of 1,100 improved, black walnuts, loaded to the breaking point, 
places the evidence on the barrelhead when it comes to putting unused 
farms to work. Located in Berks Co., Pa. 
And for landscape effect, the walnut—America’s monarch of the 
forest, retains first place as proven by the flanking sentinels of this 
colonial house here in Downingtown. These trees show the strong 
pet aes of the patriarch who planted them and the owner who keeps 
them.
