NI When the long cold evenings of ~winter come, 
what a pleasure it is to crack some Black Walnuts to 
eat or for fudge, or for mother. She can use them in 
so many different ways and what a delicious flavor 
they add. Everybody likes Black Walnuts, but the 
common Black Walnut is small and it is hard to get 
out the meats. 
Now you can have an improved grafted Black Wal- 
nut, which is giant size with kernels much larger, bet- 
ter flavor and much easier to get out. Thomas is fast 
growing and produces very large nuts. It is the great- 
est nut tree of the country. You should plant it 
because — 
1. It bears very young, often second year after plant- 
ing. A mature tree will produce 15 to 40 bushels of 
giant size nuts which sell for $4.00 or more per bushel. 
2. The nuts are immense size as pictured above. They 
crack easily so the meats come out in halves and quar- 
ters. A bushel of nuts cracks out 10 to 12 pounds of 
meats. 
3. The nuts are delicious flavor and because they are 
so large and plump and come out in halves and quar- 
ters they sell for 75c or more a pound. 
4. It will grow in almost every state in America. 
MYERS BLACK WALNUT 
N2 This new variety is very highly recommended. Mr. 
Hirschi who is a practical, experienced horticulturist 
and one of the best qualified nut experts in America, 
considers it the best he has ever fruited. It bears 
young. The nuts are not as large as Thomas but the 
shell is thinner so that a bushel of Myers cracks out 
as much and perhaps a little more than the Thomas. 
The quality is especially rich. We have a limited num- 
ber of Myers trees so please order not more than 6 
trees. We want as many as possible to try it.

The Thomas Black Walnut, Actual Size 
5. Plant a tree or two for your own use. If you have 
room, plant more for profit. You can easily sell the 
big nuts at high prices. Plant 50 feet apart and 2 or 
3 inches deeper than they stood in the nursery. 
6. In time the tree will grow large and walnut logs 
are becoming scarce. If you wished you could sell the 
trees for lumber at a good price. We doubt, though, 
if you would do this because the nut crop is so valuable. 
The demand for this great nut tree is so great that last 
spring we sold out. We suggest that you order early.

N4 Thomas Walnut Seedlings—These are small trees grown 
from the nuts of the Thomas Black Walnut. They are not as 
good as the Thomas or Myers budded trees, but they are far 
better than the common Black Walnut, producing better and 
larger nuts and growing more rapidly. Plant a grove of them. 
You will get excellent nuts and the trees will grow into valuable 
trees for lumber.

RA-PID-GRO 
The Guaranteed Liquid Plant Food 
This is a highly concentrated Plant Food, very easy to use. Just 
mix with water, one pound to 22 gallons. Used when planting, 
it makes the stock start quicker and do better. Then use it every 
2 or 3 weeks, especially early in the season. You will be greatly 
pleased at the results. Perennials, Roses, Shrubs, Trees, Berry 
Plants, etc., will do so much better. When fertilizing, take away 
some of the dirt from around the stock, making a hollow around 
it. Then the liquid can get down to the roots much better. After 
this liquid has soaked down, water thoroughly, then fill up the 
hollow with the dirt. 
Our stock is grown in the richest soils in America. It is healthy 
and vigorous and will give you the best results if planted in 
proper soil. But unfortunately most soils are now deficient in 
some elements. Even a very minor element lacking, may make 
a big difference in growth. Ra-Pid-Gro contains all these ele- 
ments. That is why we urge especially you who know your soil 
is not the best, to use it. We guarantee it to please you. See page 
36 for more information about Ra-Pid-Gro.
