S 45. (Natural size, 1946 crop.) 
The nuts of this variety were smaller than those of any of 
the other varieties shown, but the shell is thinner. The kernels 
very plump, very bright and of good quality. Tree very hardy 
as to winter cold, according to our tests so far. Buds open late 
in Spring. Pistillate blossoms of this variety are receptive about 
the same time, or a little later than those of S 22. It may make 
a pollinizer for Littlepage and it may be pollinized by S 22. 

S 66. (Natural size, 1946 crop.) 
Nuts: large. Shell medium thin, a little thinner than the 
shell of S 22. Kernels fairly plump, bright and of good quality, 
possibly a little more astringent than the other varieties shown, 
except S 22. Tree very hardy as to winter cold, according to 
our tests so far. Buds open medium early in Spring. Pistillate 
blossoms receptive a little earlier than those of S 22. So it 
may make a pollinizer for Littlepage but will not pair with S 22. 
Pollen of Littlepage is being shed early enough for this variety.
