Bears Fruit the First or Second Year after Planting. 
Bears large crops of delicious apples EVERY YEAR 
An excellent Summer Eating Apple and a superb cooker 
Disease resistant and hardy even in the coldest northern states and up into Canada. 
No other apple can combine the wonderful flavor, early bearing, and great productiveness of the Anoka 
Apple. The fruit is of good size and beautifully striped red. There is no other apple like Anoka. It is a new 
apple and the result of many years of hard work and thousands of crosses. It was the one selected as the 
ination of all these efforts, as combining all of the best points of hardiness, early bearing, productive- 
and superb flavor. Being of medium dwarf habit it is the best apple for the small garden. The size, 
color, and flavor of Anoka Apple are sure to make it a great favorite. In addition to its abundant crop 
of delicious fruit, nothing excels it in beauty when it is loaded down with blossoms in the Springtime. It’s 
an investment, not an expense, as every tree will pay for itself several times over each year in delicious 
fruit. Husky Trees, ready to bear—$1.50 each; 3 for $3.75; 6 for $6.00; 12 for $10.00.

MULBERR Y—The Mulberry is one of our most attractive trees. It produces great quantities of delicious 
berries, much like a coreless, seedless blackberry. Aside from producing a delightful shade tree and providing 
great quantities of berries for the table, they will bring many attractive birds to your garden as the fruit is 
a favorite “tidbit” of all sorts of birds. I have a limited supply of nice sturdy, 3 to 4 ft. trees, at $1.00 
each; 3 for $2.50; 6 for $4.50; 12 for $7.50. 

NUT TREES 
WALNUT TREES—$250,000 for 80 acres of Walnut Timber. Very few people realize the timber value 
of walnut trees, yet during the last World War a farmer in Iowa sold his 80 acres of Walnut Timber from 
trees planted 40 feet apart for TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. He had mean- 
time been making a living from them selling the nuts by the carload in the Chicago market. Even during 
peace times, as high as $450.00 has been paid for a single tree. I have for many years been advocating the 
planting of spare land in Walnut trees for future profit. Once planted they require little or no care. 
For the home garden there is no finer looking or more useful shade tree. It is therefore a three purpose tree; 
while it is developing into a beautiful shade tree and producing luscious nuts, it is also increasing in timber 
value from year to year. The timber is used for gun stocks and therefore demands a high price during war 
times; and it is also scarce enough to demand a high price during peace times. So whether you wish one 
or more shade trees for the home garden, or have some spare land somewhere and have an eye to the future, 
I again recommend “PLANT WALNUT TREES.” 
FINE 3 to 4 foot sturdy trees, $1.25 each; 3 for $3.25; 6 for $6.00; 12 for $10.50; 100 for $60.00. 
BLIGHT RESISTANT CHESTNUTS—When I first came to Long Island 35 years ago it abounded with 
huge stately Chestnut trees, nature’s most magnificent shade trees. Then the blight came, one of the many 
foreign pest importations, and as a result every last chestnut tree was wiped out, not only on Long Island, 
but throughout the entire country. The United States Department of Agriculture thereupon began a very 
thorough research to determine what might be done about it. The result was the discovery in 
China of a blight-resistant Chestnut Tree, producing nuts of exceptionally fine flavor. I am 
pleased to be able to offer this year some of these blight-resistant Chestnut Trees, three years 
old at $1.25 each; 3 for $3.00; 6 for $5.00; 12 for $9.00; 100 for $50.00. 


BUTTERNUT TREES—A tree of the walnut family with elongated nuts that have a de- 
licious sweet kernel. They are also often pickled when young. The hardwood is valuable and 
is used for interior trim. The tree is highly ornamental and interesting. $1.25 each; 3 for $3.25; 
6 for $6.00; 12 for $10.50; 100 for $60. 
SHADE and ORNAMENTAL TREES 
WHITE BIRCH—Winter or summer the snow white bark of the Canoe Birch is a delight in 
any garden or landscape. For best effect they should be planted in groups of several trees a 
few feet apart, the number depending upon the space available. I have some extra fine, husky 
trees available this fall at $1.50 each; 3 for $3.75; 6 for $6.00; 12 for $10.00; 100 for $60.00. 
BABYLON WEEPING WILLOW—The Weeping Willow tree is always interesting and this 
spacies is the best of them all. Especially prized for its quick growth and exceedingly long grace- 
ful drooping branches and long narrow leaves up to 8 inches long and interesting catkins with 
the leaves, 2 to 3 foot trees. 85e each; 3 for $2.25; 6 for $4.00; 12 for $7.50; 100 for $40.00. 
KENTUCKY COFFEE TREE—A specimen that is now 40 ft. high planted by me as a tiny 
tree 20 years ago, is the pride of my home garden. I have never known anyone who has seen 
it who was not fascinated by it. A full grown tree grows 100 feet high. The foliage is as artistic 
as the finest fern. It belongs to the Pea family, producing greenish white flowers in large clusters 
at the end of the branches, followed by heavy pods like lima beans, inclosing mahogany colored 
beans that take polish like a bead. The trees’should be planted while quite young. Nice young 
trees, $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50; 6 for $4.50; 12 for $7.50. 
GINKGO—A native of China, and the one remaining specimen of a prehistoric race of trees 
that lived when the Dinosauer roamed the earth. The foliage resembles the leaf of a maiden 
hair fern, and the tree therefore resembles a huge fern tree. The foliage is leathery and the 
tree is free from insect pests and diseases. Perhaps that is the reason the species has survived 
through the ages. The tree is of upright growth and eventually reaches the enormous height 
of 120 feet. I have a limied supply of young trees of this interesting species for sale at $1.00 
each; 3 for $2.50; 6 for $4.50; 12 for $7.50.
