UNION CITY, MICHIGAN 5D 
ENGLISH WALNUTS — Seedling trees grow here quite well, but as 
mentioned in a previous paragraph, are not sufficiently hardy to carry the 
staminate bloom through the cold winters. We have discontinued all 
varieties heretofore listed and wish to introduce our new exceptionally 
hardy varieties. Grafted on black walnut roots. 
-. BROADVIEW ENGLISE 
WALNUT : 
Originated near West 
Bank, British Columbia 
where winter tempera- 
tures reach 35 below 
zero. The mother tree be- 
gan bearing at an early 
age and is said to be a 
heavy annual bearing 
tree. The Nuts are large 
as the California walnuts 
and fully as good qual- 
ity. They have thin shells 
and the meats come ou 
freely. Flavor is excei- 
lent. See illustration. 
Order when you see our 
prices quoted on price 
sheet. 
‘BRESLAU (Eng. type walnut) — 
From north central Germany where 
it grew at 52 degrees N. latitude. The 
original tree in this country is growing 
near Halsey, Oregon. The Breslau 
produces a very large nut on rather 
slender stems. From past reports on 
this nut I decided it should be more 
widely disseminated through the 
northern range where it might prove 
to be a pollinator for the hardy Broad- 
view. My supply of grafts of Breslau 
:s limited so order early. 
~“ ABSCODA SHAGBARK 
HICKORY — Located by 
myvelf while out gather- 
ing hickory nuts during 
the fall of 734. It makes 
a fine growth and bears 
early when grafted upon 
the northern pecan root 
as I grow them. The nuts 
are medium in_ size, 
rather round, lightly rib- 
bed and snow white. 
Meats come out readily 
without a pick, yielding 
halves and twin-halves. 
Be sure to give this fine shagbark a trial if you have room for a tree.
