THIN-SHELLED BLACK WALNUTS 
Grafted Trees 
_ The thin-shelled varieties of American Black 
Walnuts are selections from the best of our native 
nuts. They have about twice the proportion of 
meat as the ordinary black walnuts. Most trees will 
bear the third year after planting. We list three 
of the best varieties. 
THOMAS—A large nut cracking out about 90% 
halves and quarters. MEAT—light-colored, mild 
flavored and very: fine. TREE—tall, very rapid 
grower. ‘Tends to alternate production. 
STABLER—Tree smaller and more spreading 
than Thomas. Nut very thin shelled. Many kern- 
els come out entire. Rich flavor. Bears regularly. 
Grafted walnuts bear early, usually the third year 
after planting. Production increases rapidly. 
Meats in large pieces and of uniform quality are 
very much in demand at good prices. The in- 
dustry is new and growing. Few good nuts or 
quality meats of black walnuts are on the market. 
A windbreak or fence-row planting should be a 
splendid investment. Along creek banks or well 
drained bottoms they do wonderfully. 
There is a ready market for these good nuts. 
For permanent trees we suggest you plant 60 
feet apart or 12 trees per acre. Interplant with 
Wahlbert peaches, 96 trees per acre. Fence row 
_ planting may he closer. 
Black Walnut timber is valuable. 
2 to 3 foot trees $3.00 each.

OTHER NUT VARIETIES 
FILBERTS or HAZELNUTS 
Filberts, as grown commercially, are selected 
varieties of European or hybrid origin. They are 
much larger than our native American hazels. They 
do well in many parts of the country and are good 
producers. It is necessary to plant at least two 
varieties for good pollination and three are perhaps 
better. Barcelona and Daviana do well together. 
DuChilly is also a fine nut and many growers use . 
the three varieties. 4 foot trees $2.00 each. 
CHESTNUTS 
The greatest development in Chestnuts has been 
These are 
not only an improvement, in quality over the native 
American and the European Chestnuts but are 
hardier, and blight resistant as well. For this reason 
we are progagating only the Chinese Chestnuts. 
These are grown from selections made by The U. 
S. D. A. experiment stations. Chinese Chestnuts 
are sweet and rich and usually the nut comes 
entirely free from the inner skin or pellicle. Chest- 
nuts rival corn in food value produced per acre. 
Plant 40’ to 60’ apart. Plant two or more trees. 
2’ trees $1.50 each. 
ALMONDS: 
Several kinds of Almonds are doing well here 
in the Lewiston-Clarkston valley. They are about 
as hardy as peaches but more susceptible to early 
winter freezes. We are specializing in hardier 
varieties that do well in most peach areas. $2.00 ea. 
PECANS: 
Paper-shell, Northern Pecans are promising. The 
trees are magnificent, the nuts good but production 
rather in the experimental stage. Plant two or 
more varieties for pollination. Grafted $4.00 each,

WAHLBERT PEACH 
(Plant Patent #520) 
Hardiness—Color—Quality—Firmuess—Productivity 
Has never missed a crop. 
The WAHLBERT PEACH 1s often considered 
a better Hale, is two weeks earlier, higher colored 
and much more productive. It is FREESTONE, 
SURE-CROPPING, a real money-maker. The 
hardiest peach we know. 
This excellent peach, originated by A. W. (Bert) 
Wahl, Clarkston, Washington, first bore in 1921. 
Its attractiveness was immediately apparent and its 
good qualities appreciated. However it was not 
until a series of severe winters ruined crops of all 
other varieties that its unusual hardiness was 
known. The WAHLBERT PEACH has not failed 
in twenty-four years. 
It takes many good qualities to MAKE a peach, 
andsiinen WA HD BRA ae ases tiene mame Cmmicmmnt ous 
happy combination of good qualities that puts it 
out in front among the many new peach varieties. 
When you grow fruit it is production that 
counts. And by production we mean the amount 
of good merchantable fruit per acre. WAHLBERT 
is the answer. 
SPECIAL FEATURES OF WAHLBERT 
COLOR—Deep red over golden yellow. 
FLESH—Rich yellow. 
HARDINESS-—Crops when others freeze. 
: 2 PRODUCTIVITY—Bears abundantly, self- 
ertile. 
5. COLORING—Early, well ahead of picking 
time. 
6. SEASON—Two weeks ahead of Hale. It 
ripens when good peaches are scarce. 
7. ADHERENCE—Does not fall. 
the tree even after ripening. 
8. SHAPE—Almost round, depressed at apex, 
packs easily and well. 
9. FLAVOR—Rich and good—no astringency 
or bitterness near pit. Tasty. 
10. SIZE—Large, about 3”x3”. 
11. CANNING—Excellent home canner and 
very promising for commercial canning, rich tuice. 
12. SHIPPING—Firm flesh, medium tough ad- 
hering skin—does not show bruises readily. Holds

Sticks to 
up. 
In WAHLBERT season other good peaches are 
scarce. We think it firmer and better than any 
freestone peach ripening near its season. Altho 
resembling Hale in shape and appearance WAHL- 
BERT is higher colored, much more productive and 
has no astringency about the pit. 
In direct contrast to Hale the tree is large and 
vigorous, buds extremely hardy, the bloom very 
large, abundant and showy; a better Hale, freed 
of Hale defects of tree and production. 
The tenacity with which WAHLBERT adheres 
to the tree means more peaches in the basket, en- 
ables picking with a smaller crew. With its firm- 
ness, flavor and rich, syrupy juice this peach is 
much in demand. 

Excerpts from Experiment Station Reports: 
“The fruit size and color was good.” “The quality 
of the fruit was good.” “. . about two weeks earlier 
than Elberta.” “The Wahlbert showed very good 
dark-red over-color and appeared quite firm.” 
“Yields of both trees were larger than from any 
other trees in our test plots.”

Mr. H. Lynn Tuttle, 
Clarkston, Wash. 
Dear Mr. Tuttle: 
I am anxiously awaiting for the Wahlbert Peach 
trees which I have ordered. This will be my third 
planting of Wahlbert Peach trees. In my orchard 
I have all of the best varieties of péach trees, but 
I consider the Wahlbert the best peach. Its size 
and color quickly attracts anyone. Its flavor and 
texture are excellent. The trees began bearing the 
second year and I have had a good yield every 
year. The trees are strong and show no sign of 
disease common to peach trees. 
Very cordially yours, 
J. RB: Sparks: 
Freewater, Oregon, Aug. 6, 1941. 
Mr. Lynn Tuttle, 
Clarkston, Wash. 
Dear Sir: 
The Wahlbert is one of the finest varieties grown 
and the best canner. I am harvesting my crop 
now, Aug. 6. Expect 200 boxes from 35 trees. 
I am going to make room for 2 acres this fall. 
When they are ripe they do not fall and they 
stay firm in handling. 
We cannot speak too highly of this peach and 
will send in order for more this fall.
