2 Special Hardy Types 
Freestone, a very hardy 
Superb Apricot, and since years 
the favorite with most fruit growers. 
The fruit is as good as the finest, 
the tree is an ahundant bearf€r, and 
it is hardy throughout the East and 
Middle West, except in the very ex- 
treme north. This tree also makes 
a very nice, well shaped shade and 
ornamental tree.

Dak., special breeding for drought 
resistance, and greater hardiness, 
without affecting the splendid qual- 
ity of Superb. These trees can be 
grown anywhere in the North, and, 
of course, will also give excellent re- 
sults in other states. Add 10c per 
tree to prices quoted above.

Nut-trees tr vey 
Butternut, White Walnut 
One of the finest native trees, and 
often planted for a_ shade tree. 
Hardy as far north as South Dakota. 
The nuts are large, long, 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 Chest- 
nut 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 con- 
sider it hardy as far north as the 
southern part of Nebraska, farther 
north the tree will be hardy but will 
not produce 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 customers. I have 
very nice trees in stock. 2 to 3 ft. 
size, 50c each; 3 for $1.30; prepaid. 
Sieboldi Walnut : 
Makes a 
very pret- 
ty tree which bears young and 
abundantly. It is hardy along the 
East coast states and from _ there 
west through southern Illinois, In- 
diana, southern Missouri and Kansas. 
There are some of them growing in 
Nebraska, but they are not suffi- 
ciently 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 quality. 
For the localities recommended this 
tree will be most satisfactory and 
should be planted much more freely. 
2-3 ft. nice trees, 85c each; 3 for

is the most valuable native tree for 
its wood. The nuts are hard shelled, 
but the meat is very tasty. I can

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Nut trees have large, heavy tape-root systems, 
without stringy fiber roots. The holes for plant- 
ing therefore must be rather deep. Always use 
good top-soil to fill in around roots, never mix 
manure or other humus with the soil that will 
come in contact with the roots. Pruning of nut 
trees is not necessary, we prune the large sizes of 
Black Walnut before shipping, they can be planted 
just as they come to you. 
We ship small plants such as strawberries, bulbs 
and perennials separate from trees or shrubs. 
When you receive our shipments and find any 
tree or plant damaged, just drop us a card; re- 
placements or an adjustment satisfactory to you 
will be forthcoming promptly. If an item is short 
in your order we have a record of it, and forward 
the missing item separately at proper planting 
time. There are cases in which it is best to make 
two shipments in order to plant everything at its 
proper time. 
Nut trees cannot be shipped into California.
