Planting and Follow Up Service 
Part of The Hershey Way 
In planting a nut grove or ornamental 
setting it is of paramount importance to 
know what to plant for best results in a 
desired effect or for commercial return. It 
is our policy if the customers wish, to look 
over locations, give planting advice and 
then keep in contact with our customers 
after the planting is made until a working 
knowledge of nut growing has been ac-. 
quired by the planter. In considering the 
cost of the initial planting, bear in mind 
that the slight extra cost of our trees car- 
ries the above assets with it. The experi- 
ences of our customers have proved that 
this service is invaluable. Think it over. 
Root Pruned.—We root prune and trans- 
plant all trees, building a root system that 
will permit the tree to start and make 
rapid growth when sold. These are the most 
reliable kind to plant. 
Top Pruned.—tThe tops of the trees are 
cut back before shipping. This is essential to 
balance the top with the root system and 
greatly stimulates the growth. 
Another Value in Our Trees 
One of the most important factors in 
getting trees to bear young is the use in 
grafting of scions cut from bearing trees. 
All our trees have been started this way. 
Terms 
All orders from new customers must be 
accompanied with a 25% deposit, balance 
C. O. D., or money to be forwarded before 
shipment is made. Old customers can have 
terms made agreeable to the occasion. All 
prices f.o.b. Downingtown. 
No order where an affidavit must ac- 
company invoice will be considered for less 
than $10.00. 
Balled and Burlapped.—This means the 
tree is moved with the soil around it the 
same as evergreens. It is the only way to 
move the larger trees for lawn plantings 
where quick results are wanted. Our experi- 
ence has been that 2 years’ time is saved in 
growth as the tree simply starts off grow- — 
ing with a bang.

Pollenators 
Observations and study of the relation- 
ship between varieties in regard to pollena- 
tion and on a specific variety’s ability to 
pollenate itself are being made, but to date 
no concrete conclusions have been arrived 
at. Except that it’s pretty necessary to 
plant two varieties of any species such as 
walnut, hickory, pecan, hican, and _ filbert. 
In the latter, we know the key to cross- 
pollenating varieties. (See Filberts.)

Quick Results 
So much has been said in the fruit world 
regarding planting small trees that many 
think the same applies to nut trees. In the 
fruit orchard where a low head is essential, 
small trees fill the bill, but where a high 
head is essential, as with nut trees, the 
larger tree has proven the best.

Ornamentals 
The following are Particularly Beauti- 
ful Shade Trees 
Hicoria—Hybrid Hickories 
Fairbanks 
No more ornamental tree can be had than 
these glistening foliaged shapely headed 
trees that grow as rapidly as the maple and 
bear lots of thin-shelled nuts. Bear in five 
to seven years. The larger of these are 
bearing in the nursery. 
Stratford 
This variety introduced recently is a re- 
markable tree with foliage very much like 
the shagbark. Nuts slightly smaller than 
the Fairbanks, just as thin-shelled and pos- 
sibiy higher flavored. Heavy bearer. 
This variety is particularly attractive for 
northern planting because of its feature of
