THIN-SHELLED BLACK WALNUTS 
Grafted Trees 
The thin-shelled varieties of American Black 
Walnuts are selections from the best of our native 
nuts. They have about twice the proportion of 
meat as the ordinary black walnuts. Most trees will 
bear the third year after planting. We list three 
of the best varieties. 
THOMAS—A large nut cracking out about 90% 
halves and quarters. MEAT—light-colored, mild 
flavored and very fine. TREE—tall, very rapid 
grower. ‘Tends to alternate production. 
STABLER—Tree smaller and more spreading 
than Thomas. Nut very thin shelled. Many kern- 
els come out entire. Rich flavor. Bears regularly. 
OHIO—A large nut with a very large hull. Con- 
sidered very ornamental. A consistent bearer. 
Grafted walnuts bear early, usually the third year 
after planting. Production increases rapidly. 
Meats in large pieces and of uniform quality are 
very much in demand at good prices. The in- 
dustry is new and growing. Few good nuts or 
quality meats of black walnuts are on the market. 
A windbreak or fence-row planting should be a 
splendid investment. Along creek banks or well 
drained bottoms they do wonderfully.

For permanent trees we suggest you plant 60 
feet apart or 12 trees per acre. Interplant with 
Wahlbert peaches, 96 trees per acre. Fence row 
planting may be closer. 
There is also a big possibility in growing Black 
Walnut timber. It is valuable.

OTHER NUT VARIETIES 
FILBERTS or Hazelnuts: 
Filberts, as known commercially, are European, 
or Hybrid Hazelnuts, and are much larger than our 
native Hazels. 
Comfmercial’ piantings are practical in many sec- 
tions. It is a fine nut to try almost anywhere. 
Large sized trees produce much quicker results. 
CHESTNUTS: 
Chestnuts’ do well in many places. Quite a 
few kinds are growing and producing here. Amer- 
ican, European and Chinese varieties are all good. 
The Chinese is probably the hardiest and the most 
dependable. It is also almost immune to the 
Chestnut Blight that ruined the eastern trees of 
American Chestnut. The Chinese is sweet like 
the American and the nut comes out free from 
inner skin or pellicle when opened. Plant two or 
more varieties. 
ALMONDS: 
Several kinds of Almonds are doing well here 
in the Lewiston-Clarkston valley. They are about 
as hardy as peaches but more susceptible to early 
winter freezes. We are specializing in hardier 
varieties that do well in most peach areas. 
PECANS: 
Paper-shell, Northern Pecans are promising. The 
trees are magnificent, the nuts good but production 
rather in the experimental stage. Plant two or 
more for pollination.

WAHLBERT PEACH 
(Plant patent pending) 
Hardiness—Color—Quality—Firmness—Productivity 

WAHLBERT PEACH 
(Plant Patent #520) 
Has never missed a crop 
The WAHLBERT PEACH is often considered 
a better Hale, is two weeks earlier, higher colored 
and much more productive. It is FREESTONE, 
SURE-CROPPING, a real money-maker. The 
hardiest peach we know. 
This excellent peach, originated by A. W. (Bert) 
Wahl, Clarkston, Washington, first bore in 1921. 
Its attractiveness was immediately apparent and its 
good qualities appreciated. However it was not 
until a series of severe winters ruined crops of all 
other varieties that its unusual hardiness was 
known. The WAHLBERT PEACH has not failed 
in twenty years. 
It takes many good qualities to MAKE a peach, 
and The WAHLBERT has them. It is this 
happy combination of good qualities that puts it 
out in front among the many new peach varieties. 
When you grow fruit it is production that 
counts. And by production we mean the amount 
of good merchantable fruit per acre. WAHLBERT 
is the answer. 
SPECIAL FEATURES OF WAHLBERT 
1, -COLOR—Deep red over-gurden~yelluw: 
2. FPLESH—Rich yellow. 
3. HARDINESS—Crops when others freeze. 
: 4.. PRODUCTIVITY—Bears abundantly, self- 
ertile. 
5. COLORING—Early, well ahead of picking 
time. 
6. SEASON—Two weeks ahead of Hale. It 
ripens when good peaches are scarce. 
7. ADHERENCE—Does not fall. 
the tree even after ripening. 
8. SHAPE—Almost round, depressed at apex, 
packs easily and well. 
9. FLAVOR—Rich and good—no astringency 
or bitterness near pit. Tasty. 
10. SIZE—Large, about 3”x3”. 
11. CANNING—Excellent home canner and 
very promising for commercial canning, rich juice. 
12. SHIPPING—Firm flesh, medium tough ad- 
hering skin—does not show bruises readily. Holds 
up. 
In WAHLBERT season other good peaches are 
scarce. We think it firmer and better than any 
freestone peach ripening near its season. Altho 
resembling Hale in shape and appearance WAHL- 
BERT is higher colored, much more productive and 
has no astringency about the pit. 
In direct contrast to Hale the tree is large and 
vigorous, buds extremely hardy, the bloom very 
Sticks to 
large, abundant and showy; a better Hale, freed 
of Hale defects of tree and production. 
The tenacity with which WAHLBERT adheres 
to the tree means more peaches in the basket, en- 
ables picking with a smaller crew. With its firm- 
ness, flavor and rich, syrupy juice this peach is 
much in demand. 

Excerpts from Experiment Station Reports: 
“The fruit size and color was good.” “The quality 
of the fruit was good.” “. . about two weeks earlier 
than Elberta.” “The Wahlbert showed very good 
dark-red over-color and appeared quite firm.” 
“Yields of both trees were larger than from any 
other trees in our test plots.”

Dear Mr. Tuttle: 
I am anxiously awaiting for the Wahlbert Peach 
trees which I have ordered. This will be my third 
planting of Wahlbert Peach trees. In my orchard 
I have all of the best varieties of peach trees, but 
I consider the Wahlbert the best peach. Its size 
and color quickly attracts anyone. Its flavor and 
texture are excellent. The trees began bearing the 
second...year.and. have hadua-good:.yiek y 
year. The trees are strong and show no sign of 
disease common to peach trees. 
Very cordially yours, 
J) Re Sparks.

Dear Sir: 
The Wahlbert is one of the finest varieties grown 
and the best canner. I am harvesting my crop 
now, Aug. 6. Expect 200 boxes from 395 trees. 
I am going to make room for 2 acres this fall. 
When they are ripe they do not fall and they, 
stay firm in handling. 
We cannot speak too highly of this peach and 
will send in order for more this fall.

Dear Sir: 
Last year we ordered 200 of these trees, which 
had been named the ““Wahlbert,” and, I believe, it 
will prove to be one of the finest freestone peaches 
so far developed.
