New Crath (Carpathian) Walnut 
Parent Stock Hardy at 40° Below Zero. 

This extremely hardy, 
Crax-ezy Butternut heavy-producing tree 
originated in Michigan. The nut has a thin shell (can be 
cracked with knife point). The eating quality is excellent. 
e Introduced by the U. S&S. 
Chinese Chestnut Dept. of Agriculture as the 
most blight resistant species. Nuts larger than the 
American Chestnut and are equally sweet and good. The 
Chinese’ Chestnut is a coming commercial orchard tree— 
not a fast grower but bushy and low, making harvesting 
easy. Often bear when the trees are only 3 or 4 feet tall. 
Very ornamental trees. Plant several trees for best pol- 
lenization.

American Hazel with the reliable fruiting quality of the P lanting and Culture

larger trees due to 
an already well-es-

tem. Grafted and 
will come true to 
the trees several inches below the crown. 
2. Plant when soil is mellow (not wet) and 
firm the loose dirt well around the roots. 
3. A gallon of moist peat moss mixed with 
the dirt around the roots is good insurance 
and will stimulate growth. 
4, When planting trim off about one’third 
.of the previous season’s growth. 
5. Mulching around the trees with loose 
strawy manure is beneficial. Spade in this 
mulch each Spring. 
6. Keep foliage dusted with sulphur to 
prevent leaf spot.

i possible with good cultural methods and the use of nitrogen fertilizers in 
very early Spring (cease cultivation, etc., in late July so trees will mature growth well before winter.) 
8. At this stage it may be well to slow up the tree growth for a few. years in order to throw it into fruit 
production. This restricted growth is the reason dwarf fruit trees come into bearing before the standard kinds. 
9. Keep your trees healthy with timely sprays (see our ‘‘Successful Planting” booklet for spray schedules.)
