WALNUT, FRANQUETTE 
The Filbert is less particular to the location and soil than many other nut and fruit trees. It does well 
on any soil that is fertile, well drained, retentive of moisture during summer, and which has sufficient 
depth. Filberts are generally planted 25 feet apart, each way. This requires 70 trees to the acre. 
The harvesting and care of the filbert nut is a simple matter. The nuts ripen in September and 
October and fall from the tree. The nuts are then gathered and spread out to dry and season in a warm 
room, which enhances the flavor. The nut is rich in food value, exceptionally healthful and delicious to 
the taste. No harmful effects result from eating as plentifully as one desires. 
There is little danger of an over-supply of filberts. The United States imports yearly over 25 million 
pounds of nuts. They are inferior in every respect to our home production as one can easily ascertain by 
eating and comparing the two—the home-grown and the imported. 
The territory in which the filbert can be grown is limited to this Northwest country. 
Varieties 
BARCELONA—A large round nut that drops free- 
lv from its husk. The self-husking feature is a valu- 
able one. Makes a large tree and bears early. Proper 
pollination is essential. DuChilly, Daviana and White 
Aveline are all good pollenizers for Barcelona. 
DUCHILLY—A leading commercial variety, very 
popular in Western Washington. Very large, long 
nut of superior quality. In some markets command 
premium price over Barcelona. Trees not so large as 
Barcelona but a good bearer. 
DAVIANA—This is a handsome nut of the Du- 
Chilly type or long nut. The trees are large, hand- 
some and of upright growth. Excellent pollenizer for 
DuChilly and Barcelona. 
WHITE AVELINE—Mostly planted as a polleniz- 
er for Barcelona, and for home use. Barcelona also 
pollenizes White Aveline, so they are to be recom- 
mended for inter-plantings. 
Note—In filbert plantings, each tree should con- 
tact a pollenizer, hence in commercial plantings, pol- 
lenizers are planted every third tree in every third 
row. We will, without charge, make planting charts, 
showing locations of pollenizers, for any of our cus- 
tomers who wish to plant filbert acreages.
