In these times, with high prices of fruits and vegetables, as well 
as other commodities, many are turning to home gardening as a 
means of cutting the cost of living. And rightly so, for the quality 
of home grown fruit is much superior to that from the market. 
These few back yard trees add a glorious touch to the spring 
garden with their handsome blossoms and later with their colorful 
fruits. 
For commercial plantings ask for quotations and varieties not listed

/ 
long, soft-shelled nuts.

Nonpareil. 
Nonpareil. Is the leading commercial variety. Popular for its paper 
thin shells. 
Mission (Texas). Medium sized, rather hard-shelled, but a sure 
bearer. Good pollinizer for soft-shelled varieties.
