howe NUT TREES 
Butternut, White Walnut °2°,°! 
est native trees, and often planted for a 
shade tree. Hardy as far north as South 
Dakota. The nuts are large, long, quality 
good. 12 to 18-inch seedlings, 3 for 40c; 10 
for $1.00; 25 for $2.00; prepaid. 
This is the old fashioned 
Hazelnut hardy type producing nuts of 
medium size. An upright growing bush, 
very useful for hedges or screens, or to 
make up the lower growth of the wind- 
break. Sometimes included in ornamental 
plantings for tall growth. 2-3 ft., 35c each; 
3 for 95c; prepaid. 
Hardier than the Com- 
Stuart Pecan mon Pecan, and can 
be grown as far north as southern half of 
Missouri, southern Illinois and Indiana. The 
nuts are large, thin shelled, the quality of 
which is very good. Plant them for home 
use and market. 2-3 ft. grafted trees, $1.20 
each, prepaid. 
Black Walnut 
American Sweet Chestnut 
Does best in medium light, partly sandy 
soil, no pruning required, and little or no 
cultivation. Makes a very pretty tree, and 
also produces nuts of fair quality. I con- 
sider it hardy as far north as the southern 
part of Nebraska, farther north the tree 
will be hardy but will not produce fruit. 
2 to 3 ft. size, 70c each; 3 for $1.90; prepaid. 
e bed . M k 
Sieboldi Walnut Mes. Sete 
bears young and abundantly. It hardy 
along the east coast states and from there 
west through southern [Illinois, Indiana, 
southern Missouri and Kansas. There are 
some of them growing in Nebraska, but 
they are not sufficiently hardy to be profit- 
able in this state. The nuts come in clus- 
ters, they are heart shaped, easy to open, 
contain a nut meat of high quality. For 
the localities recommended this tree will 
be most satisfactory and should be planted 
much more freely. 2-3 ft. nice trees, $1.00. 
A beautiful large tree of rapid growth, especially on bottom land. 
The nuts, although hard-shelled, are of very good quality. Besides 
being a very good shade and ornamental tree, the wood of Black Walnut is most valuable. 
Seedling Walnuts see page 29. 6 to 8 ft. well shaped trees, for shade, ornament and fruit,- 
$2.10 each, by express. 

Russian Mulberry 
This is one of the most useful trees 
that grows, and is hardy as far north 
as northern Nebraska and Iowa. Grows 
a large spreading crown, and produces 
enormous quantities of berries which 
are often used for canning. On the 
farm it is a very valuable tree for 
hedges, shelter belts, for posts and in 
the wood-lot. For these purposes I rec- 
ommend planting the 18 to 24 inch size 
as offered on page 28. The tree grows 
fairly fast, and is a long-lived tree. The 
further advantage of the Russian 
Mulberry is found in the fact that it 
attracts song-birds. Bird-lovers will 
find special satisfaction in this tree. 
For shade and ornament plant our 5 to 
6 ft. trees. Each, $1.00, by express.
