CHINESE BLIGHT RESISTANT 
CHESTNUT 
GROWING YOUR OWN LARGE, SWEET CHEST-— 
NUTS IS A PLEASURE 
A number of years ago the Chestnut blight destroyed 
the Native American Chestnuts. The U. S. Dept. of 
Agriculture—after many tests—introduced a type of 
Chinese Chestnut not only blight-resistant, but an early- 
bearer of large, good quality nuts. Trees start bearing 
when very young, often in 2 to 5 years, and succeed 
anywhere the American Sweet Chestnut formerly grew; 
in fact they can be grown over a wider area and may 
be grown wherever Peaches thrive. We recommend 
planting in a well-drained, sunny location. Plant the 
Chinese Chestnut for attractive home ground shade trees 
and also reap a harvest of delicious, sweet nuts.
