CULTIVATION 
I? you grow crops between your trees these crops cultivated during the summer 
will also help care for the trees. However, grass between the trees should be 
hoed out; and if nothing is grown between them, plow both ways and cut 
the grass around trees with a hoe. .. . A LITTLE CARE NOW WILL MORE 
THAN REPAY YOU WHEN TREES COME INTO BEARING. A little barn- 
yard fertilizer will help them. Put on in Spring after all danger of freeze is over 
REMEMBER: The man who set pecans years ago really made big money, the 
followers just good returns. The man who sets this fine walnut should do as well 
now or better. He has the additional value of the expensive timber. 
A report to the Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agricultur, says: seventy- 
two-second growth walnut trees sold for $1500.00. One large walnut is reported as 
having brought over $300.00. 1» A farmer in East Texas sold two walnut trees for 
$85.00 with many limbs left over given him for firewood. 
PRUNING 
Ae sucker growth that puts out below buds should be cut off pecan, fruit, or 
walnut trees. (Fhis fine walnut puts out two or three weeks later than com- 
mon nut so suckers out some the first year or so. CUT THIS GROWTH 
OFF, but remember, this LATER BUDDING IS ONE OF THIS TREE’S CHIEF 
ASSETS. OFTEN SAVING 12 FROM LATE: FREEZES AS IN| 1936 WHEN 
PEACHES, PLUMS, MANY PECANS AND NATIVE WALNUTS WERE DE- 
STROYED, EVEN SOME SMALL TREES. THE IMPROVED WALNUT HAD

OFTEN HAVE A CROP OF FINE WALNUTS WHEN THE PECAN OR NA- 
TIVE WALNUTL CROP IS NEARLY GONE. 
This Improved Walnut offers a wonderful future timber and Nut Supply. Our 
Forests are being cut out annually and only a few of us will have the foresight to 
plant the right replacement tree— The Black Walnuts, our Fastest Growing Hard- 
wood Tree. 
I have always sold my entire crop each year, and usually have many unfilled or- 
ders left. I get ten to fifteen cents per pound, from one-half cent to nearly one cent 
each per nut. One man writes he got one-cent each for his. This tree is early, pro- 
lfic bearer, often bearing first year after transplanting.
