CHESTNUTS 
The Chestnut is native to most of the Eastern, 
and central states, but in the past few years 
practically all the native Chestnut trees have 
been killed by the blight, which is an imported 
disease. 
To replace these valuable trees the Chinese 
and Japanese varietizs have been imported, ‘ 
these are highly resistant to the blight, and are 
growing and bearing in the blight affected ter- 
ritary without showing signs of this disease, 
Chestnut trees are native to upland, and will 
grow on poor soil, though like any other tree
