HARDY NUT-TREES 
There are good nuts to be grown in the north. This year 
we olfer only seedling trees. Chestnuts from seed are 
young, heavy bearers. The Heart-nuts and seedling 
Pecans also are worthy planting, and not merely for 
experiments, or mere ornament. They yield good nuts. 
PLANTING and CARE 
The first two years mulch well with hay o rstraw. Water 
if drought comes. Keep all side buds from developing 
in useless low branches (below 7 feet). Do not plant 
deeper than they were in nursery. 
Bargain in 3-foot Nut Trees 
Nice transplanted young trees, hardy seedlings. 
Chinese Chestnuts (See photo above). 
Heart-nut Seedlings (Juglans Sieboldi). 
Hardy Pecans—(beautiful tree, good nuts). 
2 each of 3 kinds (6 trees) for $9.00. 

PURPLE FILBERT—Nuts on Bushes 
The Filberts and Hazelnuts are still unsatisfactory in 
North-eastern U. S. At the present time those who want 
a few bushes only and little trouble with disease, at the 
same time getting good filberts, are probably best off 
with Corylus avellina purpuria. We offer heavy 4 to 5 
foot grafted plants at $5.00 each, 2 for $9.00.

BLIGHT RESISTANT CHESTNUTS 
Chinese Chestnut (Castanea-mollissima). Similar to the 
dying American, of fine flavor, and sweet. It is inured 
to the Chestnut blight. Lives and bears in north. Bears 
very young. Because of cross pollenizing needs, we 
will not sell less than 3 trees, but make this special offer:

but none available Fall (1944). 

GRAFTED WALNUTS—None to offer this year. A nice supply of small trees for fall 1945 is in prospect.
