Nut trees are the l:ngest lived of ¢ 
care and 2ttention than fruit trees, as euhey & 
not need to be sprayed and after the head of 
the: tree is once formed little or no pruninz is 
necesiary. 
Budded or grafted trees bear early. An or- 
chard of them in a few years should come into 
proiitzble bearing, and will last for a century or 
more. Plant only budcéed or grafted trees of 
Hardy Northern variet-es. 
Planting a nut orchard is not a speculation, if 
the right kind of trees are planted, cut an in- 
vestment one that will in 2 few years pay in- 
creasing annual dividends, not cnly to the plan‘t- 
er but to future generations eas well. It is just 
as much a mistake to buy the cheapest nut 
trees you can buy as it is the chezpest article 
of clothing. 
Tnere are thousands of acres of land in each 
state, not producing enough to pay ‘the taxes, 
that would return handsome prolits if planted 
to nut trees. 
As nut tree live so long 2nd attain such a 
ereat size ‘they should be- planted very wids 
apart, so they may be grown on land that is to 
be annually cultivated to grain crops, and in- 
terfere veny littl: with cultivition. 
Nut tree planting should not be confined to 
orchards, they may be grown almost anywhere 
a tree is wanted, they make beautiful shade, 
and a few of them plantéd around the home 
ser-> the twofo’d purpose of shade and food. 
Nuts are not perishable, and may be kept
